I am a little bit lucky,that I don't have to deal with pimples or any serious facial skin problems. No need to buy really expensive stuff just a simple facial wash,toner and moisturizer then I am good to go. The other week I was tempted to try using this one product that I know some of my friends don't have a problem using it. I've tried it for a week and the result was just very upsetting. Pimples occured the day after and my face was just really dry. I freaked out when I saw I had a huge zit on my face haha.. So my neglected Apricot scrub saved my face big time. I spent long enough to scrub my face and get rid of that nasty zit. I've been using Apricot scrub for long years now and I am just happy it works well for my face so far.
