| Pros: | Clears up pimples. |
| Cons: | Very expensive and very drying. It also makes my moisterizer ball up. Whenever I use this my skin literally looks like its peeling. |
| Bottom Line: | Waiting for Dan's BP to come in the mail. Hopefully its better than this expensive neutrogena crap! |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | Did reduce some inflamation |
| Cons: | Made skin REALLY dry, and almost burnt. Never made the spots completely go away. |
| Bottom Line: | This doesn't work, try something a little more on the upscale side. You get what you pay for. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | Works good for me, reduces pimples in a day, and their clear by day 2 or 3. |
| Cons: | a little expensive for a small tube, but it lasts me awhile. |
| Bottom Line: | i dont put this on my whole face, just a little on my chin, and a little on my forhead. so it lasts me around 2 months. but it works good at keeping me clear. |

| Pros: | It reduces my acne fast and it doesn't dry out my face as bad as other BP products. It clears up my skin within a week. |
| Cons: | a little expensive for such a small tube. It ran out quickly |
| Bottom Line: | Out of all BP products I've ever used, this seems to be the best one that helps reducing my acne dilemmas tremendously. Though, it's a bit expensive compared to its quantity, but it's worth the money. I'd rather spend this money for a clean and clear face than spending money on products that don't even help anything. |
| Recommended: | Yes |

| Pros: | gets rid of pimples quick |
| Cons: | CREATES LARGE, DARK POST INFLAMMATORY HYPERPIGMENTATION SPOTS (aka dark spots)!!! |
| Bottom Line: | After reading some of the great reviews about Neutrogena On the Spot on acne.org, I decided to purchase one from my local rite aid. I applied it before I went to bed, and woke up with the pimples having gone down quite a bit. But to my dismay, I also saw HUGE, VERY visible brown spots exactly at the place where I had applied this cream!!! It does get rid of emerging acne, but in exchange for that, I got these brown spots as if someone drew it on me with a brown permanent marker!!! Bottom line: I would return this if I would, and highly regret using it (since now, I'm stuck with trying to get rid of dark spots- which take months to go away, not days/weeks in the case of some acne). Usually, I don't write reviews, but I wanted to let everyone know my experience so it doesn't happen to them. |

| Pros: | Drys out some acne, non-irritating. |
| Cons: | Doesn't completely rid your acne, it has yet to fully rid even one of my pimples, it makes them smaller, but it doesn't make them go away. |
| Bottom Line: | Expensive for such a little tube, try something else. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | Good at drying out smallish bumps. |
| Cons: | Very drying and didn't stop a new fairly big bump from forming during daily use. WTF? |
| Bottom Line: | I followed the regimen. I wash with Cetaphil and sometimes Salicylic Ice Wash, then use the on-the-spot and use Olay Complete moisturizer trying to imitate the videos but I still flaked like crazy. During the regimen a new bump formed.
It's really good are removing the top layer of skin. Pretty good at drying out existing pimples. Awful at stopping new ones from forming. |

| Pros: | works well first couple of days |
| Cons: | started to not work as well after 2 weeks or so. EXTREMELY expensive! |
| Bottom Line: | This product is definetly not worth the cost. Instead, I use CVS's acne treatment, which is compared to neutrogena on the spot acne treatment. it's less than $4 and just a great product if used right! |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | Helps my big pimples but not the small ones. |
| Cons: | It is so expensive! And it takes a while to work for me. |
| Bottom Line: | I am 14 years old and i just started to get a lot of acne on my forehead and above my lip. I found Dan's website and i decided to try this out. I like the Neutrogena On-the-Spot treatment but it makes my skin very flaky even when I moisturize. What i use: 1) Cetaphil cleanser 2)Neutrogena on-the-spot treatment 3)Cetaphil moisturizer |
