Pros Leaves face totally oil free for the ENTIRE DAY!! This is such a major plus because my face was so oily, I could wipe down shop machines with my forehead and keep them from rusting.
Also clears up acne very well and works much faster than 2.5 or 5
Cons Weird gritty consistency at first, but it all rubs in.
Bottom line Make sure you put on moisturizer after applying this, it not only is good for your face but it rubs in the white streaks you missed.
Price paid $1.86

Pros Works well. Driew up acne
Cons Ruins pillow cases. There's something in the jell that when it gets on a colored pillow case it acts like bleach. Ruined several pillow cases before I realized it was from this product. How do I contact the manufacturer?
Bottom line Don't use before going to bed!

Pros Works great and works fast
Cons Has a bit of an odor, and sometimes will leave a bit of white on your face, but can be rubbed in a little to clear up.
Bottom line Overall seems to work ok. Haven't tried Clearasil but due to it being at a lower price i think it should work ok.

I don't understand how anyone could give this a bad review. It comes in two different formats. One is a little bottle that imitates OXY and the other is a tube that imitates Clearasil. It contains 10% BP and in my opinion it's amazing. I prefer the consistency of the tube better. The bottle is too wet and difficult to get out of the packaging. I was using persagel for such a long time and then I found this. I haven't used anything else since. It's cheap, it's BP and it works as well as any of the more expensive brands.

Tried this because it's inexpensive, but it doesn't work. It leaves a white film on your face and it burns a bit and you still get acne. Don't waste your money.

This actually works better than the brand name (Oxy) it's trying to copy, and it's VERY cheap too.

This is simillar to Clearasil gel, though a bit cheaper. While the product is cheap and of quality, it is not useful for severe acne. If you have very minor breakouts and just need something to keep your face clean, this is good for you. However, if you have had acne, look elsewhere.
