Pros:

It seems like it's working
Smells ok
Makes skin smooth

Cons:

Might dry out some peoples skin
Other than that, none

I was at my cousins house when I first tried velocity, and it felt great on my skin, so I got some, and I'm lovin' it. It feels good on my skin and has minor exfoliants to clean out dirt. I have been using it for about week and have seen some awesome results from it, it looks like it is fading my scars and clearing up my raised acne. I would highly recommend this product for anyone who is looking for something that works!!

Pros:

Everything. My face is soft and smooth, smells good, lasts for a long time, reasonably priced, clears up acne RIGHT AWAY, and improves skin tone (:

Cons:

Nothing. Seriously.

I love this stuff! I use the cleanser and the moisturizer, and just started today. I used it also about a year ago, but I ran out. My skin was super clear back then, I only had a couple of small pimples at a time. But I was using it with Neutrogena products so I wasn't quite sure which one was helping my acne. Lately I've been noticing how much worse my acne has been... I have breakouts everywhere, and small bumps all over my forehead that never used to be there. I'm a very insecure person, and this acne has NOT been helping me. So I stumbled across this product again and I decided to try it out of desperation. My skin has never felt so good. EVER. I could feel it cleaning deeply and getting the oil and dirt out of my pores. Also, I just checked my face in the mirror a few minutes ago, and my acne has gone down noticeably since I washed my face 30 minutes ago! If you have acne, and you have tried so many products with no luck, TRY VELOCITY. I am so excited about it!

Pros:

This feels incredible. After I used it for the first time at a MK party, the next day I was so impressed with how much softer my skin was. And you only have to use a TINY bit for your whole face & neck. Also, it's super-cheap.

Cons:

Only problem I can name is that it doesn't clear up acne extremely fast. You have to be patient and dedicated, but as long as you are you're good to go!

I love this line! The cleanser is so effective at getting down to the pores and removing ANY dirt, but ti doesn't leave your face feeling dry. The moisturizer is such a must after using the cleanser, because it just makes it so soft, without leaving your skin feel oily and disgusting like most moisturizers I've tried from Macy's (Estee Lauder for example). You use a pinky-nail amount of each, and it is more than enough for your face, neck and chest. It has helped my acne, not overnight you see, but every week I see results, and although they may be minimal, they are noticable. It has never dried out my face, as I found most cleansers to do, but it is nowhere near oily. I paid $10 for the cleanser, and $12 for the moisturizer, and they both will last m about 2 1/2 to 3 months! Come on, now ladies! That's $22 every 3 months, less than $8 a month!!! I love this, and all of Mary Kay's products

Pros:

The best part is the scrubbing grains are so gentle, not irritating like ProActive, which made me break out. I like having it delivered instead of going to the store.

Cons:

none

It really has to be used with the MK acne gel & moisturizer. The clarifying mask really helps, too.

Pros:

Smells awesome, cleanses very well, and washes off face easily without wasting water/excessives scrubbing.

Cons:

None pour moi.

Personally I love this stuff, I have pretty clear skin anyways, but I find this has kept it consistently very good. Love it and recommend it! (and I've used it twice a day for the last two years, with breaks in between in an attempt to switch cleansers, i always came back to this one!)

Pros:

Began clearing rosacea bumps almost immediately! Also decreased facial redness.

Cons:

None that I can see

I have been treating rosacea for about a year-using oral antibiotics, topical finacea gel and topical metrogel. I have not had much response, and my derm is less than helpful. She said I may want to try a sulfa-based cleanser, but that would not likely help much. On a whim, I checked the ingredients on my daughter's Velocity, and saw the 2nd ingredient listed was TEA laurel sulfate, so I thought, "why not". Also listed are several botanicals that are supposed to have a skin calming effect. I saw improvement within 2 days-NO KIDDING!! The redness was diminished, and the bumps appreared much less noticeable. I now realize the derm was referring to a different class of sulfas, but I will definately stick with this for now. Also noteworthy is the fact that I am 50 years old, and this does not dry my skin excessively. Perhaps it is the botanical agents, or just things finally starting to come together,but I really don't care either way! My skin is definately better, and this is after a year of other, more aggressive treatments that really didn't help. I'm thinking it's the Velocity!

Pros:

easy to apply, no strong smell, love the stuff!

Cons:

love it... no con's .

My daughter is 15 years old and starting to break out, tried this product and it cleared her right up... nobody is making fun of her skin anymore. It's hard enough being a teenager.. let alone one with acne. UGH. Great price, great MK service, great great great!
