| Pros: | It really does work! Trust me xD
My dermo gave me benzaderm to use it along with differin. |
| Cons: | Makes your face look HORRIBLE for the 1-3 months. Makes your skin peel moderately and sometimes skin will sting when applying moisturizers. |
| Bottom Line: | OK, people lets be real. When I first when to the dermatologist I was skeptical about this product didn't really think it would make much of a difference. Especially, the first 8 weeks into the treatment, Oh God, I wanted to cry. I looked so bad I had bumps ALL OVER my face =[ But when the 3rd month came around... My face became 90% clear!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it. Now for all of you just starting the treatment {JUST HANG IN THERE PLEASE} it takes time... It will all be over sooner than you know it. Think about the joy you'll feel when you wake up that morning and your face is clear! ::Smiles Brightly:: You'll feel like a new person ;D |

| Pros: | It cleared up my skin in less then two weeks. |
| Cons: | It made my face red but that only lasted a week and then I never got red skin again |
| Bottom Line: | The Bottom Line is that this product works wonders on acne and I would advise anyone with acne to try it because I have a boyfriend because of it. It changed my life and it can change yours to |

| Pros: | My dermatologist said I should use it. I'm using it with two other acne medications. |
| Cons: | It made my skin so peely and horrible. I can't go out in the sun or in the pool, or else my whole face will be dry and I get scabs. |
| Bottom Line: | I don't really like it right now. It clears up my pimples, but it seems like they come back worse the next day. And i've been using it since the end of April. So, I don't understand why it's not working. Ugh. |

| Pros: | Easy to use. Works really well if you stick to it. |
| Cons: | Yes, it is irritating to your skin initially. You do tend to break out even more...but then when the storm is over...you complextion is perfect! |
| Bottom Line: | I used this product and thought it didnt work the first time...then my face cleared up and I thought I was cured...soon enough I was back where I started...then a few months later I started using differin again and the same thing, happen...I was clear! The key is to continue to use it and realize it is initially pulling out all the bad stuff...get through it and you will be smiling pretty.
Oh, did I mention I am not your typical teen with acne...I am 38! It works! Buy online..not at a pharmacy..save big! |

| Pros: | Works fine.
No smell, no discoloured clothes.
Help fade acne marks & counteract greasy skin |
| Cons: | Worse acne in the beginning.
sensitive and dry skin also in the beginning. |
| Bottom Line: | I've now used the Differin Cream for 3 months and the results are amazing. My skin is much shinier and smoother, i have no big zits.
Before I had acne spread all over my face, a little here and there.. No its centerd on my upper cheeks, and its still clearing up. I've only used 1 and 1/3 tubes yet and i gonna finish this one and probably return to the doc for another prescription since i like this product so much. I think i gonna have baby butt skin using this 3 months more =) Gonna come back with a report.
Like many said before, Just have patience and stick with it cus Its gonna be all worth it in the end. |

| Pros: | The only thing that's been able to clear up my moderate acne. It evened my skin and slowly stopped getting more acne :) |
| Cons: | The gel only irritated my face, but when I switched to the cream version, my face cleared up. |
| Bottom Line: | I've really struggled with my acne, using everything from over the counter to retin-A, and using Differin cream at night and Klaron in the morning is the only thing that's ever cleared me up :o |
