Pros get rid of my acne, cheap (on Kroger and Wall-mart's $4 list)
Cons Peeling, burns when I moisturize?
Bottom line It works great. If I apply it with a loofah or scrubby to get rid of flakes and then moisturize right after I use it in the morning and then again at night I don't hardly get flaky at all. I thought it wouldn't work for me since I have sensitive/dry skin but i tried cause its so cheap and with the moisturizing and loofah it works fine!
Price paid $4.00

Pros It helps you when u have a very nasty breakout, and it clears some pimples in one day, but some may stay there for a week or so, and i use it to prevent it. But i just tried a new product wich is Retin A 0.1% and its working incredibly for me!!!
Cons Irritates yoour face, sometimes itches and burns, and it decolorates clothing.
Bottom line I would buy it as a tool, because sometimes it helps people a lot and sometimes it dosent, but it dosent hurt to give it a try.

Pros Clears face, and reduces redness. Rubbed it in constantly for one night and left marge globs on open zits. The next morning my skin was VERY dry, but i washed my face and the redness had gone down by leaps and bounds.
Cons Had to use a lot, but since the one Dan makes comes in a huge bottle it didn't matter.
Bottom line Great stuff.
Price paid $12.00

Pros helps blemishes fade faster, dries out blemishes
Cons bleaches towels and such
Bottom line This product has only done very minimal for me.
I'd reccommend it simply because when you have acne, its worth giving everything ago.

Pros helps a bit and anything that helps is worth it when you have acne!
Cons takes time to work, dries out skin, redness
Bottom line i started using this maybe 2 or three weeks ago, I definately didnt see chnages overnight, infact for a few days things got worse before they got better. This hasn't prevented me getting spots i dont think but rather just stopped them getting so big and red and helps them fade faster, seems to help clear pores too. On the down-side - it makes skin dry and red, my skin got pretty flaky for the first while but is calming down now - i'd rather dry skin than loads of big red spots.

Pros Makes skin not oily, clears and prevents acne fairly well
Cons drys out skin, bleaches clothes, towels, and hair
Bottom line Besides the fact that it bleaches everything I really like this products. It is very good for oily skin and works pretty well on acne. If you use this I recommend using only white towels and making sure it does not get in your hair.

Pros Improves acne only slightly
Cons Redness, Dryness
Bottom line I find that my skin is kind of pink the next day after I use it. It also has not prevented acne at all, only made breakouts less severe. It will make pimples go away in time, but wont necessarily keep your skin from breaking out more. Nonetheless, it has worked better than other acne medications I've used before so I would recommend it.
