For my semi-oily, sometimes overly-dry Asian skin, this product worked fine in reducing swelling and oil. It did a pretty decent job of acting fast to get rid of pimples...they'd be smaller, but would stay on my face for a lot longer, and eventually act up again. And, the worst part is that this product MAY DARKEN SKIN. Even the non-tinted stuff. So users beware: this is a quick fix, but long-term results are no fun. I now have to deal with dark spots all over the place.

This product is the only one I've found that works for me. The benzoyl products seem to cause itching, redness, and deep "underground" breakouts. I've tried another sulfur recorcinol product and it was MORE drying. My only complaint is that it has seemed to disappear from my local shelves. I've had to go to [link removed] to buy. It used to be at Target and local drugstores - not anymore. I highly recommend it for those of you who are dissatisfied with the benzoly peroxide treatments.

This product has worked well for me. I always make sure to moisturize afterwards, however, due to its drying effect. Most all acne products dry out my face, although oily. I've found that this product help to control oil, giving my skin a matte look through out the day. However, some of this look is compromised due to the moisturizer. I've found that using a tinted moisturizer keeps you looking natural.

I used this product for some time and it seemed to cleared up the pimple that appeared on the side of my nose. HOWEVER, (and it's so funny when I think of it) when I went out my skin would look as If I was wearing a mask. You have to be aware that this product contains a 'default' color that doens't look as pretty as you might think. I wanted to use this product mainly because I not only wanted to vanish those big pimples but also conceal them, and it seemed that everybody would noticed them anyway because of the weird color that my face had.
So my advice: get the vanishing cream intead of the tinted cream and wear a light oil free lotion along with this product because IT WILL DRY YOUR SKIN ( it dried up mine, and my skin is pretty oily).
Also, it will stain your clothes so if you decide to use it anyway, a piece of advice, be careful when wearing long neck sweaters...you'll see what happens...

This thing works okay (and of course I've tried EVERYTHING). I wanted to use it as foundation because it is tinted, but it sometimes makes my face look very flaky...I don't use it over night because it causes more breakout for me that way. But if I feel like not wearing make up for a day, I use this to look like I have better skin and it works fine, which means, does not cause any breakout.
ps. I'm asian and I have really oily skin. So also consider that when you read this review

This is the only product I've found that works. Benzoyl peroxide is too strong and causes my face to turn red and itch. I wish this product was available in a vanishing type of cream, not tinted.

This product is the only one that reduces shinyness that occurs due to skin oil. It basically absorbs this during the day. No other product does this; most simply leave the shine. The tinted Clearasil Adult Care works best; makes your skin less pale/ red and makes even red and oily skin appear to have a matte finish and slightly tan look with out a detectible presence.

works ok, best when used at night. might I add that drinking a lot of water and using acne treatment products enhances the product's effect... Drink a lot before sleep, if you want quick results
