| Pros: | works incredibly well and quickly. Gets rid of the small pimples and greatly reducing the bigger ones. |
| Cons: | Extremely Drying before moisturizer is put on. but once skin is moisturized, not a problem-- although there some irritation. |
| Bottom Line: | Something about the fact that this is a thicker cream consistency as opposed to a watery gel make it seemingly more effective and potent. I tried Dan Kern's gel and it dried out my skin tremendously, because it was a gel and it required so much of it. A cream just works better for sensitive skin in general. |

| Pros: | Clears off my skin. I can see how the pimple gets smaller from one day to other. |
| Cons: | Small package and kind of expensive. It's a white cream, kind of noticible in the mornings. I cannot find it easily outside US. |
| Bottom Line: | It really works, but you end up spending a lot of money. |

| Pros: | Works well
Consistency feels good
Helped clear up acne |
| Cons: | Price |
| Bottom Line: | This product works well. My regimen consists of washing my face with a purpose bar, and using this as my BP treatment. My skin type is pretty normal. It is not oily, but I still break out a lot. After a week of use this product has helped with new pimples, and started clearing up the old pimples within a few days. Will buy this product again. |

| Pros: | Works ok for spot treatment. Showed slight improvement and it helped to dull redness. |
| Cons: | Way too expensive for small tube, does not spread easily over face |
| Bottom Line: | I've been using this for about a month, but now switching to Dan's gel. I feel it is way overpriced for it's small tube, especially if you're using it twice a day - it runs out fast. It seemed to work ok on some existing pimples, which is what this product is really made for - spot treatment. It didn't work well when applied over the entire face - it was hard to spread and I think I ended up irritating my skin more from using it instead of helping it. |

| Pros: | It really works well on sudden pimples. I don't know if it speeds up the progression of them so they heal faster or stops them before they're completely there, but it works. |
| Cons: | It can cause dry skin if you use it too much. What you have to do is use it consistently so that your skin doesn't flake, and use only a tiny dot and rub it gently over the pimple. It will be somewhat dry but won't flake the way it does if you put a |
| Bottom Line: | At least give it a shot. It's a bit expensive but I find it well worth it. One of very few Neutrogena products that agrees with my skin. |

| Pros: | Definitely improved my skin. It got rid of a lot of little "bumps" on my forehead and decreased the amount of larger acne. |
| Cons: | Dried out my skin a lot...so use moisturizer! (I recommend Aveeno daily moisturizing cream that comes in a small jar.) Never quite cleared my skin up. |
| Bottom Line: | One of the best products I've tried! Though I saw improvements and would recommend it, it did not completely clear my skin up and I still went through some "difficult times". |
| Recommended: | Yes |
| Usage: | Purdue has used this item for about a year. |

| Pros: | Great for sensitive skin, doesn't dry out skin, reduces acne redness, a small amount goes a long way, and it doesn't irritate skin like other benzoyl peroxide products. |
| Cons: | It comes in a small tube and costs about $5, but it does last a long time (depending on how bad your acne is). |
| Bottom Line: | I've tried dozens of acne fighting products. I've tried facial rubs, lotions, moisturizers, deep cleaners, and exfoliators. All of them have turned my skin red from irritation, have dried my skin out, and resulted in worse breakouts. I was about to give up on cosmetics and focus on changing my lifestyle and diet, but I thought I'd try one more product...On-the-Spot Acne Treatment by Neutrogena. A very small dab of this cream on the acne affected area will reduce the acne's redness considerably and make it disappear in a couple of days. This product has helped reduce my acne breakouts by eliminating the ones I have and keeping me from popping pimples, spreading the bacteria to other parts of my face. If you have dry, sensitive skin and other products seem to make your acne worse try this product out. It is sold in small portions, but (depending on your condition) it lasts for at least a month. Five dollars a month for clearer skin sounds like a great deal to me. Can't hurt to try it. |
