Pros:

None

Cons:

Stinks, Screwed up my skin -- I used it as spot treatment overnight as instructed and it lightened my skin color. Now I look like a silly retard with a white spot on my forehead.

I'm scarred for life.

Pros:

feels nice in a way, doesn't make my skin feel tight, doesn't over-dry

Cons:

smells like playdough, does not work on pimple overnight

in the commercial it says the mask can, "zap problem zits fast." that is not true, however, i do find this to be a very nice mask (besides the fact that it smells like playdough) it does help with the redness on my face

Pros:

works very well and makes me face feel smooth and healthy. I leave it on for longer then the 10 min. it suggests also.

Cons:

it doesnt work in one night like the comercials say. there is a noticable difference in the morning which is good but pimples are not completely gone.

Get it. Its soo worth it!

Pros:

It does suck up the extra oil on your face. So, it DOES work. Proactiv calls it an emergency treatment, which it is, though it won't make your skin flawless, just improved. I think it's fine to use it every other day AT FIRST if you have OILY skin.

Cons:

It's pricy! You have to pre-order it; so plan ahead. PRODUCT SHOULD BE IN A BETTER PACKAGE as there is lots of leftovers in tube--cut it open and there are 2 more uses, which dry out if not used in 24 hours.

Go for it. I use it with the 3 step Proactiv as well (for about 3 months). It is about 60% cheaper during the year than going on accutane. And no real side effects and it is much cheaper--try it first. But it does NOT solve the problem faster than accutane. Works as well as clyndomycin prescription. Better than other drugstore brands, though Neutrogena 5-in-1 is pretty good as a substitute. But learn as I am, Be Careful what you put on your face! Only non-comedogenic products--it must say it on the product before it goes on my face from now on!

Pros:

Works great as a spot treatment and sometimes as a over night mask.

Cons:

None

I don't know why I or anyone else is using this product. Before they make new products, they should make the 3 steps work just as well, I pay alot for them and I want them to work.

Cons:

Smells really bad when I wake up in the morning.

Great stuff but hate the smell.
