| Pros | Cheap, colour matched my skin, didn't dry it out, gave me a great skin tone |
|---|---|
| Cons | Didn't work that well |
| Bottom line | I started using this after I stopped using benzoyl peroxide which I had been using for 4 years (which never really worked that well). Acnomel seemed to get rid of my breakouts at first and I was enjoying my hydrated and more even skin tone compared to when I was using BP, so I had high hopes. But... it never ended up really working. I continued to have moderate breakouts the same as when I was on BP. So I quit. |

| Pros | It works!!!!! I have had acne since I was 10, and I've tried EVERYTHING- BP, salacylic acid- I was allergic to, triclosan- which made me itch, doxycycline--stomach couldn't tolerate and countless others, none of whom worked as well as using this |
|---|---|
| Cons | i'm black, so the "tinted" cream isn't dark enough and doesn't blend well with my skin tone. i can only wear it at night. |
| Bottom line | it is an effective (finally!), readily available acne treatment on persons who have moderate/ severe acne that nothing else will cure. i do still use benzoyl peroxide and a mild cleanser. if you are having problems with dryness, i suggest a mild cleanser and toner with glycerin/ without alcohol to help the skin replenish and retain moisture. Olive oil is also a good moisturizer that i use when my skin became a little splotchy. |

| Pros | - Drys up skin - Provides immediate cover - Works fast to get rid of major acne |
|---|---|
| Cons | - May cause flaky, overly dry skin - May look like you're wearing makeup if to heavily put on |
| Bottom line | It works well in a short period of time, but it may not provide long term results. It covers up red acne, to increase confidence, and can get rid of it overnight. For me personally it worked really great, but then I began to rely to heavily on it and it started drying up my skin too much. Causing my skin to be extremely flaky, dry, and noticeable. I still use it, as I feel flaky skin, which i can later moisturize is better than acne covered skin. |

| Bottom line | I don't have acne but more of a rosacea type dermatitis that has plagued me for several years and this product has stopped the b umps from occuring.The sulpher seems to keep the bumps at bay and I recommend keeping it on your skin to keep the l lesions from forming. |

| Pros | It's tinted so it hides the blemish a little |
|---|---|
| Cons | drying, doesn't work! |
| Bottom line | i bought this for £8 on ebay and it does absolutely NOTHING! on top of that it dried out my skin so bad it started peeling, and this is with 2 days usage. it's also perfumed. why would they do that? awful, don't recommend |

| Pros | I am 46 and have acne my whole life- this is the first product that worked (other than antibiotics). It is very oil absorbant too. I have tried EVERYTHING including BP, retin A, the ZENO(worthless), Salicylic acid, Zinc, DIM, ... |
|---|---|
| Cons | Has odor- wear at night |
| Bottom line | If you had acne - you must try it. Wait at least a month to judge. Get it at Walgreens |

| Pros | Dries out zits fast. Masks blemishes. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Awful sulfur smell. |
| Bottom line | I think this is the greatest. I now associate the the awful smell with the demise of the zits. Great stuff. |

| Pros | Dried up my huge cystic 'take forever to surface' pimples, keeps me from having to constantly wash my face, one application lasts all day |
|---|---|
| Cons | The color in it is streaky |
| Bottom line | I'm not used to having acne, I was lucky enough to grow up with perfect skin until about two years ago when I turned 21. Now I get blackheads, whiteheads and HUGE cystic pimples that will hang around for months under the skin-deep in my tissue and hurt. I was about to give up and shell out $$ for a dermatologist and saw that this had sulfur in it-the last OTC thing I had not tried. I smeared some on and two hours later my biggest most painful cyst was already half the size it was before. Im hoping I continue to see results *knocks on wood* |
