0 stars if possible. Used this normally and half a dozen beads got stuck in my eyelid, opthalmologist had to remove each one as I was in major discomfort. Will never use again.

since Neutrogena discontinued the Pore Minimizer Scrub in the white tube I thought I'd try this and what a joke. This doesn't even come close to the other scrub. I cannot understand why they would cancel such a great product. This has some type of big uneven ground up type seeds for the scrub and it's terrible. Pore Minimizer scrub had tiny beads that left my skin smooth and clean, not this.

I don't really get breakouts on my skin, but when I do, this face scrub is great to use and clears up my skin overnight. I wash my face with this scrub every morning and night. On top of this scrub keeping my skin acne free, it also has significantly reduced my pores.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] this is a really great product to use in the morning becuase it's very refreshing and gets rid of all the excess oils on my skin, it is also cheaper than cetaphil so that was the reason i used this.

My face was so red and then the next day I tried again cuz I wasn’t sure if it was forsure the scrub so I used the next day and my face got even more red and burnt so bad to put lotion on . And today which is the third day I didn’t use but my face feels like sand paper :( it’s so red and burnt

This is horrible, it clogs your pores, strips your skin, drys it out, and breaks you out. I do not recommend this.

This face wash worked on my face personally. I had switch for awhile to CerVe (I think I spelt it wrong haha) but that skin treatment just made me break out a lot but I switched back to my original face wash which was this and my face has been clean ever since! Highly recommended.

BEST PRODUCT EVER - 1 year ago
I suffered from horrible acne all of my life, spent hundreds of dollars on cleansers, toners, moisturizers- you name it. One day, I decided "Hey, why don't I just try the cheapest products I can find?" I found this. Guys, I'm telling you. If you have redness, deep pores, acne with the white dots, and under the skin that won't pop for anything- this product is for you. I tried this starting off and just a little bit over a week later, I saw amazing results. I paired this with 2 amazing moisturizers (neutrogena dark spot moisturizer PM and CeraVe daily moisturizer lotion. IT WORKS. I do this NIGHTLY. The exfoliating is so good and doesn’t dry out my skin, it has reduced my pores so much since I started using it, I don’t LOVE the smell, but others might have a different opinion. It does smell EXACTLY like grapefruit though- so 5 stars for the smell. In the pictures you can tell it has reduced my acne so much as well. My skin has also smoothed so so much. I will never spend hundreds of dollars on another face product in my life. These 3 products will have you looking and FEELING your best. I promise. Quick tips: if you want BETTER and FASTER results •DRINK LOTS OF WATER, * TRY NOT TO TOUCH YOUR FACE WHATSOEVER, * DON’T APPLY FACE PRODUCTS WITH ANYTHING BUT YOUR HANDS (WASH THEM FIRST) * AND ALSO BE SURE TO PAT YOUR FACE DRY WITH SOMETHING CLEAN (I PREFER PAPER TOWEL) NEVER SCRUB. * USE ONLY MAKEUP WIPES (BEAUTY BALMS CLOG PORES. * USE VASELINE TO GET MASCARA OFF I swear that this works. I’m telling you all of this because I’m so confident that this works. Especially for my changing/oily skin babes. Your skin might be a little bit irritated by it at first! It’s just your skin trying to get used to a new product. (However if you break out, stop using it. I don’t want to be the reason you get an allergic reaction <3) Try it!!! It might be your next fav product!
