I was in Superdrug a little while ago and I saw these 'Blackhead Eliminating Daily Cleansing Cushions' and I thought they looked great! I have some blackheads on my nose and chin so I bought these and off I went home eager to try them out.
The packaging is quite attractive. The product comes in a cardboard box which has a lid that lifts up and reveals the face pads inside in a clear plastic bag. The box has 'Visibly Clear' written on the top of it with information about the product written along the sides. It has the classic orange Neutrogena colour covering the top half of the top of the box and the rest of the box in a silver/grey colour.
You get 22 of these cleansing cushions in the pack. They are circular is shape and are two soft cottonwool-like cylinders attached together with a space at the bottom like a pocket so you can fit your fingers inside in order to be able to use them with ease.
You use both sides of the cushion to clean your face. You start with the side which has tiny little orange beads on it which are meant to exfoliate your face. This creates a nice lather, and then you turn the pad over and use the smooth side which has 'blackhead fighting ingredients'.
As soon as I had used them my skin started stinging and my face went a bit red and blotchy. I applied moisturiser and the next day my skin was fine again so I thought maybe I'll give it another go, and I did. Unfortunately the same thing happened. And on top of that I didn't even get to clear my blackheads up! I gave these away to one of my friends. She hasn't seemed to have had any problems with these so I will put it down to my skin type. Which is actually normally quite good! It states on the packet 'gentle enough for everyday use' but I guess these just disagreed with me. I wouldn't recommend these if you have sensitive skin!
These have a good shelf life of 12 months after opening. Which is a good long time since there are only 22 pads in the pack and you will certainly have used them up in that time if you use one a day (They are called 'Daily Cleansing Cushions')
I also think that these are not really environmentally friendly. You are using quite a large face pad, which only lasts for one face wash before you have to throw it away. So if you use these regularly you are creating a lot of waste!

Review of Neutrogena Visibly Clear Blackhead Eliminating Daily Cleansing Cushions
Since hitting puberty I've always had problems with my skin. I've suffered with mild acne, black heads and a strange mixture of greasy yet flaky skin. Every girls nightmare! Although I've been prescribed treatment by the doctor for mild acne which has worked, I'd still struggled to find something that would combat my blackheads. Then I came across this. Despite reading some bad reviews and finding little if any good reviews about this product, I ... ...supermarket/chemists shelves claiming to defeat blackheads, I've tried and tested it. Without any success. So one afternoon, on my weekly shop at Tesco's I popped "Neutrogena Visibly Clear Blackhead Eliminating Cushions" into my trolley hoping I hadn't thrown more money down the drain. The box contains 22 cushions which are claimed to be gentle enough for everyday use. "Good" I think, my terribly sensitive skin needs just that. So next morning, I ...

Advantages: Easy to use and hold Disadvantages: Makes skin tight and also does not eliminate blackheads
I bought these as they were advertised to get rid of blackheads, something I suffer from, however so far they have done nothing but make things worse. I realise that sometimes products for skin can make the situation worse before it gets better so I have persevered but each time I use it I get huge spots where the blackeads have swollen if that is possible. At first, as others have said, your face is very tight and stiff but if you moisturise as ...

I think these are the best things on the market. One pad usually lasts 2-3 washes. My skin has come up really smooth. I am sending to UK from NZ for them as they are not available. Triple A rating. ...
