Topical Keratolytic
Acne.org’s Real World Take
Easy to find and with low side effects, but don’t be surprised if you are left wishing for better results after using it for a while. Any acid on its own is unlikely to dramatically clear acne.

Cons:
really harsh or your skin, and it doesnt really help clear acne all that much =[
if you DO use this, make sure you dont use it too often x] cuz it gives your skin 'micro-cuts'

Pros:
Immediate results
Cons:
None that I really could put my finger on... Maybe the branding could be better... Cuz I keep forgeting the name so that I can tell my friends.
I had what I thought was a bug bite because I haven't had acne for years... it wouldn't go away and started looking more like a pimple so I stood at the acne section in the store and pretty much picked the product that said... overnight results... It wasn't the cheapest product on the shelf nor was it the most expensive. I could not believe it. In less than two days it had totally disappeared. It made me want to tell everyone to try it! Now it's up there with my hiccup cure! Swallow a spoonful of sugar without tasting it. Sure cure! I promise!

Product used: Biore (Pore Unclogging Scrub)
Pros:
It makes your face feel clean
Cons:
It made me break out more and my face red
My face felt clean after using it but I guess it didn't mean anything. During my first wash it made my skin red but the redness dissapear in a few seconds. I had high expectation for this product. It made me break out more and does not help for any reason. I am very dissapointed since it worked for so many others.

Product used: Clean & Clear (Blackhead Clearing Scrub)
Pros:
affordable and can be a great body scrub.
[[yeah i like to use it on my body instead =)]]
Cons:
doesn't smell as good as other blackhead scrubs do, and i still had plenty of blackheads on my nose after using it for a while. and there were too many beads.
i wouldn't buy it if you had really severe blackheads, only if you have a couple.

Product used: Neutrogena (Oil-Free Acne Wash 60 Second Mask Scrub)
Pros:
it works really well to make your skin soft and clear! it keeps working over time and doesn't dry it out or make it too oily. it clears up your acne within 2 weeks so you need to give it time. if it is used just once a week it works too!
Cons:
i personally don't like the type of packaging it comes in, but i gues i am just a clumsy person in the shower!
i recommend this product to everyone i know who is struggling with acne! it is discontinued,so get it while you can! you can now basically only find it at [link removed]

Product used: Arbonne (Clear Advantage System)
Pros:
I think it is great!!! I clears me up even on my chest and back.....I use other arbonne products too, they are not greesy at all...they don't contain any mineral oil. Best of all they ship it right to my house....
Email me if you live in the metro detroit area and I will give you the number of my wholesaler's number. she is great!!!
Pros:
GREAT exfoliator, i tend to mix it with other scrubs that dont have enough 'beads'
