Pros:

Cheap and effective - I would go so far as to say it's the best skin clearing product I have ever used. Initially, I used it twice a day for about a fortnight, now on a maintenance use of three times a week. Clears pores of all gunk.

Cons:

Needs to be rinsed thoroughly, so I use it before I step into the shower/wash hair.

If they ever discontinue this, I will be devastated. It really has revolutionised the skin on my face.

Pros:

I've only been using this product for 2 days, and almost every blackhead on my face is gone!

Cons:

The scrubbing beads are big, so they can get a little messy!! But if you use it in the shower, it's not a problem.

Great product. I've used everything -- Apricot Scrubs, Astringents, Cleansers, ProActiv.... nothing ever works! I have sensitive skin, and very oily skin. Most products make my breakouts worse, or give me a horrible rash. This one is great on sensitive skin and leaves me feeling clean without overdrying.

Pros:

keeps my acne in control. when I stopped using it my acne flourished... removes dead skin. good smell.

Cons:

beads get stuck everywhere lol
does absolutely nothing for blackheads

Try it and see how it works, it's not that expensive. It worked for me but it may not work for everyone. i can only use bp for spot treatments and not on my entire face (causes rash) so i use this for acne prevention.

it's whatever
This product is way too harsh for daily use and it worsens your acne. I had this product for like ever and only used it like once a week or twice a week when I didn't have acne. I honestly didn't see any difference on my skin. Then one day I started breaking out and it wouldn't stop. So I started using this product daily and I noticed my whiteheads started getting inflamed. These whiteheads was getting red and big and very noticeable. Since most of my whiteheads was on one side of my cheek... it looked like one side of my cheek was swollen. At that time I really didn't know it was because this product was just too harsh for my skin.

Pros:

❤ results after 1-2 uses
❤ removes makeup, dirt, and oil completely
❤ leaves skin feeling SO fresh and CLEAN

Cons:

😪 dries out skin a bit: use a moisturizer after use

❤ After using this product just one time, I noticed results the next morning. All together, I've used this product morning and night for about three days. It's been slowly clearing some blackheads for me, but like I said I've only been using it for 3 days. It does clear all other acne and breakouts. I would reccomend using this product with Neutragina's Grapefruit Acne Wash and blackhead clearer. That's what I've been using with it and it works AMAZINGLY. They both clear and prevent acne, breakouts, and blackheads quickly. The grapefruit wash cleans off your face (plus all the other stuff it does!) first before you use the clean and clear scrub so then the scrub can work and get into your skin even better. GET THIS PRODUCT(;

Pros:

-Smells good

Cons:

-doesn't get rid of ALL blackheads

I actually use this as MY Clarisonic. I just bout a cheap-o electric toothbrush and take about the same amount that you would normally use if you were to scrub your face with your hands but instead I use a toothbrush. I find that it gets even deeper into your skin lifting the dirt and oils more than it would if you were to just use your hands. For me, it's the same thing as the Clarisonic but I'm just using a different scrub and the brush is smaller. Even though it doesn't get rid of all blackheads, my skin has noticeably gotten clearer within a few weeks of use. I had a few systic acne bumps on each cheek and blackheads along my cheek bones and after those two weeks the acne bumps have decreased, meaning flattened out and are almost gone, and my blackheads are clearing up. My skin is really smooth too!

Pros:

You can definitely feel a difference once you use it to exfoliate your face. I use it about once every two days because exfoliating too often can be bad for your skin, but this product is great; it really cleans your face.

Cons:

Even though it says "Blackhead clearing scrub", it doesn't clear any of my blackheads at all. So instead of using it to clear blackheads, I just use it as a normal exfoliator to get rid of dirt on my face.

It's great if you want to clean off the dirt on your face and it doesn't dry out your skin at all. It's a good product for people with sensitive skin as well, like me. But if you're looking for something to get rid of your blackheads, this product isn't for you.

Pros:

Works VERY well

Cons:

None, maybe more beads.

I had used this before and stopped using it a while back for whatever reason. I started using this again when another acne scrub (not mentioning any names) made my acne A LOT worse. I started to use this and immediately I noticed an improvement in my acne. Within a week my acne had calmed down and within two weeks my skin got clearer and clearer. My skin is softer and my acne is disappearing! :) Love it!!!

Pros:

-made my skin feel very smooth
-removed dead skin nicely with beads

Cons:

-did nothing to help acne

I used this in combination with another Clean and Clear product (Continous Control with the Benzoyl Peroxide). I felt this product wasn't as bad as the other Clean and Clear product that I used but together they still managed to destroy my face. Did not work for me :(
