It is incredible how good my skin feels after using it, hydrated, moisturized, soft and my pores looks clean too. It didn't help with breakouts that I already had but in terms of preventing them, it is awesome. My skin got a bit irritated the first days I used it (I have mild rosacea) but I found out it was because of rubbing the pad, so now I either rubbit very gently with the non-exfoliant side or pat it on the skin.
