Cynthia, Nebraska Sep 23rd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: pimples are smaller Cons: dries skin out really bad everything burns my skin now my face is more scarred Bottom Line: i hate it !! It was a waste of money my skin wasn't this bad before and its noticeable my friends tell me how my skin looks much worse i didnt have as many pimples as i do now !! but now my skin is peeling and drying out really bad and everything burns. i don't recommend this. My pimples may be smaller but now my acne has spread to places where i didn't have any. Now my self esteem has gone done really bad Recommended: No Usage: Cynthia has used this item for a few months.

Zaman, Tehran, Iran Sep 22nd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: It works fast & it makes your skin soft Cons: It takes a while to dry up Bottom Line: I applies it together with benzoyl peroxide. The latter gel was effective to diminish acne remarkably, but Differin removed the spots from the acne and it softened my face which was dried out by benzoyl peroxide; I take it that it's a supplimentary drug. By the way, you've got to be patient enough once you apply "Differin" since it dries up pretty late. Recommended: Yes Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful?

lo, atlanta, ga Sep 22nd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Wored well Cons: Not strong enough- Bottom Line: It worked. Then my mom took me to the derm. and all hell broke out. I was on differin and minocycline. My skin was looking great. They've put me on dozens of different things since and now if I went back, it wouldn't be strong enough. Recommended: Yes Usage: lo has used this item for a few months.

Angela, Dubai, UAE Sep 16th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Works, makes skin soft Cons: peeling, dry skin. Use Differin gel coz differin cream gives lot of acne. Bottom Line: 32yrs, female(sufferin from PCOD) Differin gel works, initially I had a lot of skin peeling, reddness in sensitive areas(avoid applying on them). I have used it for 2 weeks no acne yet. I also apply clindac A in the morining which also helps a lot. I had severe acne till 2 months ago due to PCOD but now I am left with a lot of scars hopefully it will fade with time.

HYS1004, UAE Sep 15th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Its available nearly all over the world. The price is relatively cheap in this country. The gel is easy to use. Cons: After about 3 days it may peel off. If applied everyday it may peel or acne may flare up. Bottom Line: After 1 year of suffering acne, I was introduced to this infamous dermatologist in my hometown Korea. I received a 1:1 consulting and I asked some questions. After the doctor looked at my skin, she prescribed me Differin. I applied it for two days straight and my skin started to peel! I thought I should just use it once per two/three days.. Till now its working out for me but I would recommend this to people who actually received a prescription from a dermatologist. Everyone has different skins so nooone can tell you whats good for your skin unless they actually see it and know something about different types of skin and acne. I live in Dubai, UAE Recommended: Yes Usage: HYS1004 has used this item for a few months. Price Paid: 5.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Emily, Minnesota Sep 13th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: It makes skin soft, is minimizing black heads, is starting to clear up pimples, helps heal and minimize scaring, dries out moderately dry skin. Cons: It is taking FOR-EV-ER for this stuff to work... But I was told it takes a month to ACTUALLY work. I read on here that a lot of people were told to use it as a spot? I use it all over.. So I don't know is that makes a different. Bottom Line: If you have the patients to wake for the effects, be prepared for a month until you see clear skin... I am still waiting but I can see it already helping in a lot of places. Recommended: Yes Usage: Emily has used this item for a few weeks.
