| Pros | I saw results very quickly |
|---|---|
| Cons | Extreme drying meant that I traded one problem (acne) for another (peeling and flaiking) |
| Bottom line | I started off using this and then switched to a 5% product after about a week. That worked well for me, since the 10% product made a dramatic difference and the 5% product took care of the rest. |

| Pros | It has helped me a ton. It dries up my acne pretty quickly and prevents it from coming. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Leaves a white residue which comes off if rubbed slightly |
| Bottom line | I usually only use this product at night. I wash my face in the morning and then at night. After i wash it at night i apply this product all over. Sometimes if i am having an especially bad break out i put it on in the morning. This means i have to rub the wite residue off but that is no big deal. It used to dry my skin a little but now it is fine. I would recommend this product pretty highly. It is cheap as opposed to the Ultra and works fine for me. If you have sensative skin i would say to probably only use it for spot treatment. |

| Pros | -dries out the pimples I had |
|---|---|
| Cons | Far too drying for me. Wouldn't recommend it for those with mild/moderate acne like me. Turned my face bright red in a very blotchy way, and flaky. Maybe if you only put it on active pimples, and then wash it off, it might be ok. |
| Bottom line | Wouldn't recommend to those with sensitive or combination skin, even with tons of moisturizer it is just too drying. It's been over a day since I last used it and my skin still looks awful. If you do buy only put it on active pimples, I tried putting it on areas where I often get pimples and have oil issues but that was obviously a mistake. I guess if you'd rather have bright red, scaly, blotchy, itchy skin over pimples then try it...but there must be a better option. PS the stuff I bought was only 5% BP. |

| Pros | Dries up pimples. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Doesnt absorb into your face so it irritates my pimples when i wash it off.When i washed it off my face was also very red and stung a little but the redness went away in about and hour. |
| Bottom line | Will help acne but it definitley can leave face dry or red. I do not reccomend you putting this on clear spots of your face, only on pimples. I also feel it works better on smaller pimples than bigger ones. I started today, and the small ones are already clearing up. This also barely has |

| Pros | dries up small pimples reasonably fast, but does not work on mild acne such as mine. |
|---|---|
| Cons | -it dries -it doesn't absorb into the skin leaving white powdery residue. |
| Bottom line | doesn't work in the long term, it's only a quick fix that won't last. |

| Pros | It cleared up my skin a bit after two days or so. I can see an improvement even after four days. |
|---|---|
| Cons | It is VERY drying and turned my face red. My face itches like crazy and became flaky. It also leaves a white powdery residue. |
| Bottom line | I think it will work if I stick to it for a while. I just started, so maybe that's why my face is unbearably itchy and red. WARNING: Use plenty of moisturizer. |

| Pros | Clears all of my acne up. A pimple or 2 still comes through once a month but not a problem. Reduces oil on my face, smoothes and exfoliates my skin. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Dries me out around mouth and sides of nose, but moisturizer takes care of that problem. Certain moisturizers don't apply so well on top of this BP cream. Can only use this at night because of the white color and weird feeling on skin. |
| Bottom line | This stuff works at clearing acne up, but also at preventing acne as well. I use it every night and its been over 2 years. This product works great and still fights acne even though I've been using it for so long. Smooths and evens out skin tone, just love this stuff. Too bad it can't control my pore size though. |

| Pros | Ok, well I use this as a combo with my cleanser. I mix it with my face wash, as I don't like the feeling of keeping it on my face all day, as it dries it out. I got the idea from my brother's bp face wash (rx only) and it has worked well. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Dries. |
| Bottom line | If you use it with a cleanser and don't keep it on it works good. |
