Pros It's a very light gel that goes smoothly on your face. The nice thing about it is that it moisturizes as well as heals. You don't need to apply anymore than a dime sized blob on your entire face!
Cons The smell is neutral, with a bit of bitterness. Not a pleasant smell. It also takes about 5-10 minutes to fully dry.
Bottom line Work really good to heel and prevent breakouts, makes skin smooth and healthy. Very affordable and perfect for mild acne. My friend uses it as well and has the same results. Include it in your nightly routine and you should see great results.

Pros Didn't dry out my skin, made a tiny bit of a difference.
Cons Stung, smelled not so great, didn't help all that much with acne. Didn't work for my brother either.
Bottom line Didn't work that well, but at least it didn't make things worse.

Pros Works quickly, within a day i noticed my skin was smoother and less bumpy. I never go a day without using it, it has been my skin savoir over the past few years. At first it was slightly drying but that went away after a few months.
Cons Takes a little while to dry, smell is strong.
Bottom line Definatly would reccommend for those with mild acne, works quickly with very little if any side effects.

Pros helps control acne, works fast
Cons makes face a bit oilier than usual
Bottom line I specifically asked my doctor to prescribe me something that had clindamycin because benzoyl peroxide stopped working for me and its supposed to kill the bacteria. Well, clindamycin also kills bacteria and its working very well. I also asked for retin a and i think the combination works great! I've been using both since late june and i haven't had any breakouts since then. but i do have tons of red marks from the crazy breakout that i had before using clindamycin and retin-a. It was the worst breakout ever in my life. I was getting tons of cystic acne and new pimples almost every day. But thankfully i asked my doctor to prescribe me these and its been working good. i just have to find a way to get rid of the red marks and i'll be clear! right now i probably have like 2 very small, almost non-existent pimples. i hope the bacteria doesn't get resistant to the clindamycin though so it can keep working.

Pros Works for the first few weeks.
Cons Has no long term effects. The bacteria gets ressistant.
Bottom line My doctor prescribe this and told me to use it with Oxy (10% benzoyl peroxide). After my first few times using it my skin cleared up and I had no acne except one or 2, but after a month it's stops working and I started to break out again.

Pros maintained keratosis pilaris
Cons dries out skin alot, when used on chest and back it brought many many tiny little pimples so I discontinued use after 2 days. Could this have been the initial breakout? Idk.
Bottom line I tried it on my face once for this one pimple that would never go away and it did, right away. If I apply it all over my face I especially breakout... weird. It maintained my Keratosis Pilaris for a little, though. Btw, I have oily skin.

Pros I used with doxycycline and Differin and it Works well.
Cons If used in the right amount it wont cause dryness. If it does you are probably using more than a thin film.
