| Pros: | It seems to have finally had an impact after several weeks. My face has cleared up quite a bit on one side and moderately on the other. |
| Cons: | I still get occasional new zits and pimples, even in areas where I applied the cream. It also dries EXTREMELY fast so you cannot rub it in as long as Dan suggests. |
| Bottom Line: | On-the-spot is the only thing that has made an impact on my acne. Overall it is a good product- although it is kind of expensive. The cheapest I could find was at my local Wal-Mart for $4.50 a tube. |

| Pros: | I've used this product for a while, and it works great! Being only 2.5% concentration, it's gentle on the skin, and does a great job getting rid of mild to moderate acne. |
| Cons: | Pricey for the amount you get. Plus, make sure you carry a cloth with you if you sweat a lot (like myself). It'll leave an annoying milky residue on your face (especially while exercising outdoors in the heat). |
| Bottom Line: | Overall, this is an fine product. However, I still prefer Dan's product over this one for the simple reason that it's a gel-based formula. Neutrogena On-the-spot is not very good to use in the summertime if you sweat heavily, and it does occasionally clump up when using a moisturizer (because it's cream-based). However, it does get the intended job done and I would still recommend it to most folks. |

| Pros: | I love this particular BP simply because it is non-irritating where as other products (Clearasil, Persa-Gel, etc...) use 10% BP. This is 2.5%; however, it is just as effective in fighting acne. It smells great and it goes on pretty clear. Buy it! |
| Cons: | I wish it would go on a little more clearer, but that is not a big issue for me. I've never had harsh acne. Luckily it is very very mild, but this keeps me from getting any future pimples. I also with the tube was as big as Dan's BP. 4 oz perfect |
| Bottom Line: | I will not between BP's anymore. I have tried many different BP's and I love this one. I give it five stars. It is fast acting and it smells great. I wish it came in a bigger tube, but that is fine. I am willing to pay $4.97 for it at Wal-Mart. By the way people, go to Wal-Mart. I can't believe that your paying between 7 and 10 bucks for this stuff. It's only 5 bucks at Wal-Mart. Happy acne killing! |

| Pros: | not too expensive, clears up skin very fast, easy to use, easy to carry around |
| Cons: | requires a lot to clear up entire face |
| Bottom Line: | This produut worked fantastically on my skin. It did not dry it out, and I saw results after 1 day. 2.5% benzoyl peroxide is the way to go. It's way less expensive as Proactiv or those advertised brands. It dries very quickly and doesn't feel sticky or oily on my skin. Fantastic prodcut overall. |

| Pros: | Works well for spot treatment. Clears up acne I can feel under the skin before it comes to the surface. |
| Cons: | Pricey-but lasts a long time if only used for spot treatment. Very drying for all over use. |
| Bottom Line: | Definitely recommend it for spot treatment, not all over the face. |

| Pros: | This product works very, very well. I have used 10% BP Clearisil Persigel which was very drying and irritating to my skin. This is much more mild. With Oil of Olay moisturizer, make up goes on very well-a must for work. |
| Cons: | You really should start with a very small amount to avoid irritating your skin. I used a very small amount on my forehead, nose, and chin and it has worked very well. Not really a con-just a recommendation. |
| Bottom Line: | This works very well. I've tried tons of other products, and this has worked by far the best. I use Dove white/sensitive bar soap for the first step, and Oil of Olay Moisturizer for the third step, but only if I have to wear make up for work. If you've never used BP, start off small because it can be a little drying and irritating, but it is just as effective as the 10% stuff out there, but not nearly as irritating. Moisturizing helps a lot, and my Bare Minerals make up goes over everything with no problem. Bare Minerals is great for your skin, and conceals blemishes like nothing else. You can get the starter kit for about $60, and it lasts a long time (still on my starter kit 3 months later). |

| Pros: | It worked pretty well and it was very convenient because I could take it with me everwhere. |
| Cons: | It really dried out my skin. I would recommend using a moisturized afterwards. |
| Bottom Line: | It kept my acne under control. I switched from this product to Clean and Clear and this product ended up being better even though Clean and Clear had 5% B.P. |
