| Pros | Cures acne very quickly. Works like magic! |
|---|---|
| Cons | Bad smell (my pillow case really smells like Sulphur - my husband hates the smell). Dries the skin a little (I have oily skin so it doesn't affect me too much) Ruins my fake jewelry (somehow it peels the top layer of silver-plated or gold-plated custom jewelry) |
| Bottom line | Works great! I'm very impressed. I love this product! It's the only product that cured my acne. Now I have very light or no acne; but before using this product I had very severe acne. Especially after taking Niaspan that one of my doctors prescribed me for high cholesterol - my acne rosacea was out of control! I highly recommend this product, the cons are really not a big deal - the results are spectacular. Good luck to all! |

| Pros | Gets rid of white heads and just beneath the surface white heads really fast. |
|---|---|
| Cons | NOT FOR COMBINATION SKIN!!! TOO DRYING |
| Bottom line | I think this stuff works if you have severe acne. I have light to moderate acne. When I used this product as a spot treatment on some beneath the surface pimples on my cheeks (stress related) it dried them out beautifully. I decided to use this stuff on the small beneath the surface pimples on my forehead, BAD IDEA! At first it seemed the product was working there too but after a few days I noticed extreme dryness and more small pimples. That happened December 2009 and I'm just now (February 2010) getting rid of those nasty little bumps. Bottom Line: Don't use this if you have combination skin. It's just gonna make you break out more. Probably best to use as a spot treatment on really bad, big pimples. |

| Pros | Tinted, so under makeup it helps hide the redness. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Smells weird, weird consistency when it dries so you can tell something is on your face.... |
| Bottom line | I thought this was working for me at first, it dried up a few of my zits a little bit. At that point, my zits weren't cystic. Then, after about a few days, it appeared that it made my acne more cystic-like/deeper in the skin. Making matters worse, it burnt off the top layer of skin over the large nodules so it was nearly impossible to cover up (and I'm very good at covering up my acne w/ makeup, and this product made it harder). Seems great after reading this reviews, I went out and bought it. But realized it was part of why my acne was getting worse. |

| Pros | Works great! Perfect and i mean PERFECT skin color match. When im wearing acnomel it just looks like i have perfect skin. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Smells. I can't smell it once it is on my skin, but when my bf goes in for a kiss he says he can DEFINITELY smell it. oh well : ) oh and i have trouble finding this product. I have only seen it in two stores. |
| Bottom line | I love love love this product. Before using acnomel i was using clearasil tinted treatment, which is basically the same item. They both contain Resorcinol (2%), Sulfur (8%) and are geared towards adult acne. I like acnomel better because of the consistency and the fact that it matches my skin PERFECTLY. When i apply this stuff it just looks like i have flawless skin. I havent gotten ONE pimple from using this item and it has dried out all of the small pimples that i did have. I basically use this as a foundation. My regimen consist of: Papaya bar Soap Witch Hazel Toner Acnomel (applied with a wet finger) I usually wait about 30 mins for the product to kind of melt into my skin and if my skin is not flaky i just apply blush over top and then leave the house!! IF my skin is dry then i can apply lotion on top and it'll leave my skin looking and feeling matte all day long! I think its also a wonderful primer. Before this i was using BP 5% which was working wonderfully but it was leaving my face really dry and dead looking. I'm trying the sulfur route now, and im quite happy with the results. |

| Pros | It works! Wears well under Bare Minerals. |
|---|---|
| Cons | I had only been able to find it at one drug store and I found out today, they've discontinued shipments. WHY? |
| Bottom line | My cystic acne had gotten so bad that I was seriously considering Accutane. Doctor's won't prescribe it to women of child bearing age, that can't be good. I was desperate. I'd tried everything over the counter and a few pricey prescriptions. Nothing was helping. I found acnomel and my face was clear in two weeks! |

| Pros | I have pretty much tried everything and I can say that after putting this on a blemish for a couple of days, it does go away. What I normally do is use an antibacterial cleanser and put the Acnomel on at night. |
|---|---|
| Cons | It does dry out the skin surrounding the blemish and once you apply it the product does turn into a cake like substance. |
| Bottom line | I heard that Romans used sulfur for acne problems and out of BP and SA, this works 10x better! |

| Pros | This product seems to be shrinking rosacea lesions and is helping them to not spread.I am only on day four but finally I think I don't have to live with reoccurring bumps.The sulpher calms them down and I used to use Prosacea(otc) but it was not stro |
|---|---|
| Cons | The pigment color is too dark for me, the smell is nothing if it gets rid of this horrible problem with my skin.What scant sulpher smell there is smells good as it is clearing my skin.The cream is very 'cakey' and one cannot apply make up over it. |
| Bottom line | I am so very thankful to finally find a product to help clear this strange dermitis.I am 45 and while this is not acne (it is itchy but pustule like) the sulpher helps it to keep from spreading.I feel hope that my skin won't continue to break out in these strange lesions. |

| Pros | Worked asap on my chin acne. Get a few red nasty looking pimples that occasionally turn into something horrific. Acnomel cleared them dowm to barely noticeable in one night. I CANNOT believe I've wasted money on salycitic acid and benzoil peroxide |
|---|---|
| Cons | It dries to a paste and the color is for caucasians and I'm black. Who cares |
| Bottom line | The best thing since sliced bread. |

| Pros | It's about the best product I have ever used! I have been to the best derms, followed their expensive prescription recommendations and found Adult Acnomel to take care of the occassional acne I get now and then. Immediate results |
|---|---|
| Cons | The tinted color shows, so I only use at night |
| Bottom line | Great product. A little hard to find as the distribution seems limited. |
