It works! I´ve tried everything available, Accutane, Doxy, SA, BP, home made remedies, expensive dermatologists and nothing even comes close to good as this. It cleared my acne in 3 weeks. I still have one occasional breakout, but nowhere near as bad as before. I love this product and highly recommend it to people who have tried everything.
Pros
Clears up Acne fast.
Doesn´t overdry skin.
No smell
Can use under makeup.
Cons
Leaves white streaks if you don´t apply well.
moderately severe
for a few months
$ 14
I recommend using this treatment.

This stuff works great. It is very drying, but that's why it works. I was using just the straight up 10%, then I tried adding about 15 drops of tea tree oil to the remaining 2/3 or so of the tube I had left, which made it seem to work even better. I have incredibly oily skin, and I even found it too drying to use every day, so I use it on my entire face every other day, and then use it as a spot treatment every day (sometimes 2x for really nasty ones). It has done a tremendous job with no side-effects (other than dryness and mild light-sensitivity). It is incredibly expensive to buy in the US for what it is (about $40 a bottle without insurance, and still about $15-20 with because it isn't a generic), and doctors tend not to prescribe it over other topicals. So I just buy mine in Mexico for about $7/tube (still made in Galderma's French factory). Pretty awesome stuff.
Pros
goes on easily, only have to use a little, no odor, works very well, doesn't seem to stain fabrics as easily as other BP preparations, comes in different strengths
Cons
dries skin out, ridiculously overpriced for what it is in the US (still cheaper than some options), sometimes leaves white streaks on face where it wasn't rubbed in all the way after it dries
severe

I use it twice a day morining and night after using proactiv. Woks life a miracle to me. Proactiv alone won't work but with this product it will. I use an SPF 15 moisturizer to remove the dryness and flakyness.
Pros

Cons
Gets really dry and flaky.
moderate
for a few weeks
$ 23
I recommend using this treatment.
