Pros Cheap
Works fast
Leaves skin feeling soft, and clean
Continues working long after you wash
Cons Uncomftorable tingly sensation, long after wash (but this means, it's working)
Bottom line It's really good, I've tried alot of things, and my dermatologist put me on 8% benzoyl peroxide wash, and I would use that and it would be pretty expensive around 20 dollars a tube.
This is cheap, has the same ingrediants, and honestly it works better, it's a higher concentration and it keeps on working, it's a "time-release" so long after you wash it's still working.
Cleared my skin really fast, definetly worth it.

Pros Works!
Cheap
Fast results
Cons Leaves skin dry
Stings if left on for too long
BURNS! If used with other acne care brands
Bottom line This product is great! Clean & Clear make great stuff for acne! I had some tough acne on my face for years and nothing has worked, until I received this! My acne cleared in just about 2 weeks.

When I first used this product, I used it with other acne care brands. Within the first 2 days my face was burning! It was burning for a full day. So if you plan on using this, use it with only other Clean & Clear stuff.

So about after a week of that dreadful day, I started using the product again. I don't put it all over my face, I only apply it to the areas where there is acne. Kind of like a spot treatment. I leave it on there for about 5-10 minutes, wash it off, then apply Clean & Clear Spot Treatment on the same areas after. I do this every morning and night. After the first 2 days, I literally saw results!

Pros Works great!
Leaves face feeling refreshed.
Leaves me feeling dry but not too much and my skin feels great!
Leaves face feeling very clean.
Cons Doesn't lather too well but that's no problem.
Sometimes my face looks burned but it never feels that way.
Bottom line No disrespect to Dan or his regimen, but my regimen I created worked better for me. In the evening I use just a regular oil-free and alcohol-free cleanser. Then I apply the Clean & Clear Continuous Control Acne Cleanser. I leave it on my face for 60 seconds, then rinse. For my 3rd step I use the Clean & Clear Advantage Fast Clearing Spot Treatment with 2% salicylic acid. Within one day I noticed clearing.

Keep in mind in the morning I do not use the regular face wash, just the 2 Clean & Clear products.

In the fall/winter months I get moderate acne, but in the spring/summer, I get severe acne. I started using this regimen for a month now and I am hoping it continues to work like this in the summer.

Pros - Has 10% BP
- A little goes a VERY long way - only use a dime size amount
- Affordable
- Works!
Cons - Doesn't lather well (Not a big deal, just add a little of the cleanser to a wet face)
- Irritates eye area - just keep it away from the eyes, period.
- A little dry skin (Nothing a moisturizer won't fix)
Bottom line I've been using this product for about.. 6 or 7 days. I picked it up at Target after returning an expensive acne regime that didn't work (The Burt's Bees Natural Acne Solutions, if you're interested). This was cheap, and it had 10% BP, so I figured I've tried everything and might as well try this. After the first two days, my big acne bumps weren't really red anymore and a lot of my deep persistent whiteheads that I've developed on my checks and can't get rid of, started to shrink and the majority of them are gone now! I've had an issue with them in particular for a while now, so it's a relief to see them gone. In such a short time, it's cleared up my face more than 70%. I'm definitely going to stick with this. But, it has irritated my eye area and a small area around my mouth. But it's nothing that I can't fix with my moisturizer and I recommend a little Vitamin E Gel (Notice, GEL, not OIL). Vitamin E Gel recently healed my face after a bad chemical burn, so it will repair minor dry and irritated skin quickly. But dealing with dry skin is better than dealing with acne, if you ask me. If you have tried just about every product like me, and salicylic acid just isn't doing it, this cleanser might just be for you.

Pros -keeping my face clear
-the way your face feels after using it (its like a good tight feeling that is very refreshing)
-easy to find in stores
-reduces my oiliness
Cons -used to make my face dry but i just used a moisturizer and it went away
Bottom line I used to have HORRIBLE acne when i was in middle school/first year of high school. I have gone through DOZENS of acne products and none have seemed to work as well as this does! I still have some pimples show up every once in awhile, but i just dab a little on it while i sleep and the next morning it has shrunk!
I have very oily skin, i use it twice everyday and i love this (:

Pros I can't remember...
Cons Left my sensitive skin very dry and irritated.
Bottom line I used this product for a while when I was about eleven or twelve and it broke me out very badly. I am now 14 going on 15 in March and my skin is pretty much relatively clear.. I LOVE my Noxzema, which I have been using for almost five months now, but now that my jar is out and I haven't had the chance to go back out to town to buy more of it, I was thinking of giving THIS product another shot, as I found it when I was looking through my medicine cabinet (aka my facial products/lotion cabinet lol) and thought I'd take a look at reviews online. I'm trusting the majority of the reviews and I'm going to use it now, but I'm definitely going to follow up with a lotion just in case. Wish me luck!

Pros It works even after you rinse it off. Hours later you feel it working you feel tingling feelings in your face its awesome.
Cons It drys skin if you are not use to benzoyl peroxide. Or it my be to strong for some skin types.
Bottom line It works just like its stated on the cream tube. (the same ingredient proactiv carries benzoyl peroxide but proactiv carries 2.5% and this one 10% which is about 5 times stronger than Proactiv. AND ONE QUICK EASY STEP ONLY !!not the 3 annoying steps.
