| Pros | acne free skin, less oilier, a magic happened |
|---|---|
| Cons | nothing at all |
| Bottom line | i tried so many products orally and topically, nothing worked that best for me, i took clindamycin,differin, retin, A, antibiotics for many months, spiranolactone many months and even birth control pills for 5 months, but no use, well its right that my acne went away with tha use use of antibiotics, spiranolactone, and my skin got so beautiful and glowing with the use of pills but my acne came back, and u know there r alot or side effects using these things, so finally benzol peroxide(any brand) is working &im not worrid about using it for a long period cz it has no dangerous side effects, i HIGHLY HIGHLY recomend it |

| Pros | clears out pimples within the first week and stayed clear for over year 1/2. |
|---|---|
| Cons | first time i used, i remember it burned. then started to peel and shedding.which was expected.After my face got use to it,after maybe 2 mths it stop shedding though.your face may become oilier after u stop using it. |
| Bottom line | It works great for the time being, but after you stop using it, your face may become oilier since it is use to having drier skin. Your acne will disappear though, believe me it worked for me while for over about 2 years. But what I've noticed since about a year 1/2 in, my acne become for use to the product and the medicine wasn't working/as well. That is one thing i would admit, it gave me beautiful skin, spotless i am saying, but beware of over usage. |

| Pros | NONE |
|---|---|
| Cons | Burns your skin, makes it really dry itchy and then I broke out far worse than I started with. |
| Bottom line | Do not use this product, it didn't work for me. I think in the long term it can't be good for your skin and I don't think its really going to keep your acne at bay for too long. |

| Pros | Dries up pimples. Stop a pimple in its track. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Dry face with a white towel because it will bleach if face is not washed thoroughly! Better be safe than sorry. |
| Bottom line | My doctor prescribed it. Always put a small amount on the pimples. Do not spread it all over face because in the morning your eyelids will burn and so will your face. I use it because it dries the pimple leaving a clean spot. Only use on pimple not scars. It can redden the face. I only put it at night and sleep because it's too strong. Use it consitantly. P.S. Acne will go away when the time comes. Just drink a lot of water and eat fruits. Give up those nasty junk foods. Just makes matters worse. |

| Pros | Works |
|---|---|
| Cons | Once you stop using it every thing "pops" back up. Does lessen oily skin. |
| Bottom line | Its worked for me with the at first use. Then I stopped using it for about two weeks and new tiny white heads started popping up, and even on places i'd never had them on. It might work for someone else better than it did for me. |

| Pros | Brought out the Swelling, Eventually cleared up most of my acne to date |
|---|---|
| Cons | Severe dryness & flaking, dyed my eyebrows! |
| Bottom line | I got this as a last hope to clear my acne up, i noticed changes immediatly after one use where all the redness had gone away in just a few hours and it was hardly noticeable I even had acne problems ! Then after a few days my face was sore and flaking and I've had to spend a lot of money on moisturising products to help my skin cope. It's great apart from that and bleaching some of my eyebrows ginger.. however I would only recommend this to people who are severely bothered by their acne cause it can be rather irratating. I was told though dryness was a side affect and it's not as bad now after using for a short amount of time. The benzoyl Peroxide itself only cost about $2.10 dollars it's the moisturising that made it so expensive |

| Pros | Cleared up my acne well, no burning sensation, easy to work with and apply |
|---|---|
| Cons | I need to use a moisturizer on my face every day to prevent my skin from peeling |
| Bottom line | I used a Benzoyl Peroxide Gel 5% with Clindamycin Phosphate topical gel 1%, and both worked wonders for my face. I tried Proactiv, Clean and Clear, AcneFree, Clearasil, Neutrogena, St. Ive's, and none really worked for my skin. With these products, the acne pretty much went away, and one pimple or two pimples come back every now and then. Ask your doctor for a prescription. |

| Pros | clears up acne |
|---|---|
| Cons | redness, burns, itches, stings, dry skin, reaction with eyes. |
| Bottom line | I have only used it now under a week and already it's reacted with my eyes! It seems to be clearing up the spots, but is drying my skin out so I look terrible! I got this from my doctor, and if it hasn't cleared up all my acne between a month and 6 weeks, I am giving up on it! It's not worth the pain! |
