Product Rating: 2 there's got to be an easier way...
Reviewer: Sunny from New York City  Thu Apr 19 2007

It's like rubber cement on your face. And hard to get all the little bits off. The rubbing CAN'T be good for the skin. There's got to be an easier way!

Product Rating: 1 Dangerous
Reviewer: Michelle from Miami beach   Fri Mar 27 2009

I read some reviews in here that said it work... For some it might... My own experience is that I don't even have sensitive skin... It burned so bad within seconds of putting it on.. Leaving my skin so red... And then dark burn marks the next few days... I can't believe it hasn't been recalled

Product Rating: 1 Bad bad bad!
Reviewer: jane from australia  Mon Nov 24 2008

I followed the instructions, but it still burned my skin, leaving it red, sore and UGLY! Would not use again. Now i have to wait for it to heal.

Product Rating: 1 do not buy...
Reviewer: tna from Punta Gorda, FL  Sun Aug 24 2008

this is the very first product i bought way back from this particular brand and i have to say i was very disappointed. i don't understand how it worked well w/ others and none at all in my case... i agree w/ the other reviewers, it only turned my skin red, a little irritated but didn't do anything to my blackheads/whiteheads... i stopped using it when bottle is half empty, frustration is not worth it.

Product Rating: 1 I lost my skin
Reviewer: Alison   Wed Jun 25 2008

I followed the directions closely on the bottle. The burning was almost unbarable... my skin turned white then pealed off. I was burned badly. Horrible experience. I look like I face planted fell off a bike and skidded across a road 2 miles. DO NOT use this product.

Product Rating: 1 NEVER USE IT

Product Rating: 1 Nightmare
Reviewer: Anonymous   Thu Mar 27 2008

I would strongly reccomend not purchasing this product. I used it on my nose and on my chin where i tend to break out the most and right away, a strong burning sensation began and was unbearable. I took it off and my chin blistered and is scabbed over and I look like i have been hit by a truck. there are large burns on my chin and nose. It still hurts to the touch and when i move my chin. If you want to save yourself from an experience like this, DO NOT try it.

Product Rating: 4 Love it
Reviewer: Happy Lady   Tue Oct 16 2007

When I first ordered this product I was a little skeptical about the whole "Instant Results" promise on the lable, but it's actually true. I was so eager to try it out when I first got it, that I put a bit on my forehead right at my desk and after a minute, I rubbed off the dried formula, and off came the impurities on forehead. I originally purchased the product for my boyfriend - he has a problem with enlarged pores on his nose and it drives me nuts - and I can't wait to try it out on him!

Product Rating: 2 it didn't do anything for me
Reviewer: C. Smith from Del Rio, TX  Fri Apr 27 2007

I thought this was a waste of my money. My face hurt more trying to rub it off than results I ever saw. I felt like I was abusing myself.

Product Rating: 4 Good for acne...
Reviewer: Chrissi   Thu Apr 19 2007

This product is helpful to prevent acne in the T-zone, but it will dry your skin out faster than it will minimize or remove blackheads. It tends to turn a normally oily t-zone into a dry, flaky mess.

Product Rating: 5 Zit removal for Adults
Reviewer: Nat from Australia  Mon Dec 18 2006

This is an excellent product. It works better than anything that I used as a teenager - and I have tried many in my efforts to remove zits, blackheads and decrease large pores. Can even be worn under makeup. Be warned, do not use this product more than twice a day, it is strong and will burn your skin. Be patient, after a few days your skin will be smooth and clean looking. I use it sometimes even when my skin is clear just to keep it smooth and fresh looking.

Product Rating: 4 Works better than anything i have evert tried
Reviewer: ivelina nikolova from Philadelphia, pa  Tue Sep 05 2006

however, you should not use it too often. I was a little too eagre and my whole face turned red for a couple of days. don't use it more than twice a week i would say. but it does work. it takes the black heads out in most areas. it does not remove everything. the deep white heads and huge pores come out for the most part but those in the fold of my chin fo example are hardly fased by it. i think that if you open them up with hot water and steem first it will work even better. but basically, iy's THE best product that i have tried thus far, not a miracle worker though.

Product Rating: 5 Used it once and problems gone!
Reviewer: Tallulah from Los Angeles  Sun Sep 03 2006

I usually breakout from chocolate, humidity, and my cycle, but I used this once and all my problems vanished. I had blackheads, big pores and a few big zits and they just disappeared!

Product Rating: 4 Worked better than imagined
Reviewer: Misti   Tue May 02 2006

I'm not one for thinking there's a majical cream out there to solve my problems but, I bought this just hoping to minimize the appearance of blackheads on my chin. I was pretty impressed. It goes deep into the pores. It stings a little and I suggest using at night since it reddens the skin. I have sensitive skin so it might not be as red for others. My pores look a lot less visable and my blackheads have slowly faded. I definitely recommend this product if you are just wanting to make large pores appear smaller.

Product Rating: 5 Outstanding!
Reviewer: Zara from California  Mon Apr 17 2006

This product is so different from anything I ever used. And it only takes moments - a fast clean, if you're busy - and I cannot explain how deeply it cleans out the pores, and how nice my face looks afterwards! Don't know how they do it, but well worth the money, one bottle really lasts.

Product Rating: 5 nose cyst gone
Reviewer: Verna Spier from NY,NY  Sun Oct 30 2005

I have had a major problem with an enlarged pore on my nose for years. Nothing I did ever helped. At least once a month (you know ladies) this thing would erupt like a mountain. The problem is that it never came to a head. It just sat there red and sore. My doctor said it was as cyst.
I tried everything, but it was no use. I saw the Joey product and figured what the heck. I used it on this one spot every night for 2 weeks and I actually got deep enough to get out this tiny stone like substance.
I now use it twice a week on my entire face and at 54 I have a beautiful complection. My husband now comments on how beautiful my skin is. He tells me that the skin is really the first thing men look at, it's that important.
Try it, be patient though.
Verna

Product Rating: 1 I wasted money on this?
Reviewer: Tara from Tampa  Mon Mar 21 2005

Wow! Hard to believe I spent my money on this product. I tried it numerous times thinking maybe I was applying or rubbing wrong. Nope. This product does not seem to do anything but make my skin flake everywhere I applied it!

Product Rating: 1 Don't waste your money
Reviewer: RN student   Sun Mar 20 2005

This product does one thing, it gets you to spend money that could have been put to better use.

Product Rating: 1 this does nothing
Reviewer: tian from chicago  Sun Jan 30 2005

This item couldn't possibly work any less. I used a little , I used a lot.
I used it everyday ,I used it every other day.
It does nothing.
