Pros:

Works great
last long time
drys up pimples

Cons:

Dry feeling on face

This product is great! I started getting really bad acne on my chin and oil by the creases next to my nose. About 2 days after using this I noticed the pimple were drying up, and not much oil by my nose only thing I don't like is how dry it makes my face feel while using it after a shower ! But I totally recommend this product!!

Pros:

Visibly reduces acne. Extremely inexpensive. Easy to use while in the shower.

Cons:

Does not completely clear skin.

At the time I used this my acne was moderate. It did not reduce 100% of acne but this has so far been the most effective product I have used, but I am still looking for the treatment for clear skin.

Pros:

It worked!! In like 1 week. I used it on my arm. Now I'm going to try it on my face.

Cons:

dries out my skin, but 20 minutes later my oily skin is back to normal, so I don't use a moisturizer.

I actually tried this product on my arm. I'm not sure if the bumps on my arm was acne. It think it was from an allergic reaction to soy food. Anyway, the bumps looked absolutely terrible. About 20 somethin' bumps all in one area. The bumps had dried and went down a little the next day. But I apply the soap directly to my skin and leave it on about 10 minutes before I rinse it off. I used it about 3 times a day as well. It really worked. Now that it worked flawlessly on my arm, I just started trying it on my face today. I hope the results are just as good!!

Pros:

I have used this soap for a couple of years now, twice a day, morning and evening, best thing I have found for my rosaesa, I have tried prescriptions, lazer surgery and all, but this is the best for control of break outs and blisters.

Cons:

Sure it stinks and sure it dries, but use some Fruit of Earth vitimin E cream after faithfully. It is cheap and does the trick for the softest, smoothest, clearist skin around. Not all things work for everyone but give it a try and some time. Awesome

I think this works for most, don't mix with too many other products at first. It is drying, stings if it gets in your eyes and you need to put it in a separate plastic soap container so it dries out after each use to preserve the length of the bar lasting. All in all not to bad for beautiful skin and it won't break your pocketbook. Buy a new outfit instead of more face products. Far to many Salicylic acid products out there, skin care, shampoo etc. Loads of people don't realize they are probably irritated from these or allergic and get into cycle that further irritates their skin. Give it 30 days and use the right moisturizer.

Great!
I have tried many store bought products and this one works better for my acne prone skin than any of them, plus cheap to buy! Use with a moisturizer because it does cause dryness.

Works surprisingly well
I received this as a sample gift pack in college. Rarely had issues. It's simple, and it just works. Use with a light moisturizer to protect against dryness and peeling. **UPDATE** This was effective in my early 20s/college days. But now at 29, I think this is actually a bit harsh for me. The skin around my jawline and chin has dried out significantly and is quite itchy. ONLY recommended for younger folks with very oily skin and in summer.

Pros:

- It is at a good price for what it does
- cleans skin well
- smells good
- doesn't burn

Cons:

- Dries skin out after use if no moisturizer is applied

After looking everywhere for a reasonably priced facial cleanser, I found this. After a couple of days using it, I could notice my skin gradually improving. This product won't work by itself, but with toner, oil-free moisturizer, and spot treatment, the regime works. I still had blackheads after using the product though. If it helps, I have combination tan skin.

Pros:

it really clean oily skin perfectly leaving your pores breathing

Cons:

smell & dryness (this i discovered that to be due to excessive washing as it is resolved in water quickly)

do not rub it aggressively with water. this makes it harsh your skin as it resolved in water rapidly
