| Pros | Worked for a time |
|---|---|
| Cons | I developed an allergy to benzoyl peroxide - I would break out in large red hives all over my face. As many of you know this is a main ingredient in many acne treatments thus making it even harder to use anything. |
| Bottom line | I started using this around when i was around 14 yrs old. It worked for quite a while. Maybe a few months to a year after I started using it, it stopped working - I might as well have been putting water on my face. Then one day in gym my face was covered in red hives. I used it again and the had the same reaction. Now as a 21 yr old I am extremely limited in my topical acne solutions. If it works for you great! But if you notice it stops working, be careful. Has anyone else developed an allergy to benzoyl peroxide? |

| Pros | This product works for me if follow the regimen |
|---|---|
| Cons | does dry skin moisturising essential can make skin red |
| Bottom line | i have suffered with acne for 10 years have had every antibiotic & cream available minocin worked for many years but as with all antibiotics my body has become ammune to them. i have been on the regimen for 8 weeks now & it is very rare i get a spot now as long as i follow the regimen religiously it works great. It does dry the skin but who cares as long as there are no spots!!!!!!! if i get very dry which can happen sometimes i just put less on for a couple of days & moisturise more.My skin can also go very red still better than spots. This produst has changed my life i feel confident again thankyou x |

| Pros | It treats current breakouts. |
|---|---|
| Cons | It doesn't prevent breakouts, dries skin, and can bleach skin/clothes |
| Bottom line | I was using Differin at night,Benzaclin in the morning & taking Doxycyclyne once daily. I had great results right away & my face cleared up in 1-2 months. I took the antibiotics for bout 2 months but I am still using Benzaclin & Differin on a regular basis. |

| Pros | works to prevent acne, helps get rid of acne. |
|---|---|
| Cons | It can be very drying, Doesn't work for me as soon as I'd like. Will make acne worse before it gets better. |
| Bottom line | I use it in an attempt to get rid of the little whitehead bumps i have all over my forehead, it definitely cleared a lot of them up but the ones that are left ( still many) are now bigger and more noticeable. i'm told that this is normal when treating acne, for it to get worse before it gets better, so i'm keeping my fingers crossed. Overall, I'm buying more today. Its worth it. |

| Pros | might work for you |
|---|---|
| Cons | didn't for me |
| Bottom line | basically i think everyone who first has acne when there about 13 and it isn't awful yet but starting to get bad is told that a doctor can help they are prescribed this but the aren't consistent but on too much or too little and don't understand their face well enough yet I wouldn't try it again simply because you need confidence in your medication for it too work I believe however if i had used this properly at the age of 13 i wouldn't have such a problem now It took me up till about 7 months ago to get the confidence to go back to a doctor and guess what they can help... |

| Pros | works temporarily |
|---|---|
| Cons | dries out your sking, makes acne worse than before you used the product, may be necessary to use this product continuously in order to see results, stops working over a period of time |
| Bottom line | Benzoyl peroxide dries out your skin! When this happens, your pores get clogged up which results in more acne!!!!!! Also, if you stop using this product, your acne will be worse than before you used it. So the bottom line is to stay away from this product or any product that has chemicals. Research a natural method to cure your acne instead! |

| Pros | I wish there were some. |
|---|---|
| Cons | -Inflames Acne -Irritates skin -Leaves ugly dark marks that last a long time after it has successfully dried up a pimple |
| Bottom line | Total garbage for me who is mild-medium acne sufferer, but everybody has different skin so I would give it a try if I were you. |
