Pros price
Cons scent
Bottom line i've suffered with acne for years due to my hormone imbalance, have tried everything from birth control pills to proactive, nothing worked as well as this. i've stuck to neutrogena for almost a year now because the results are great. It controls new breakouts and cleared up the existing ones. I also noticed my face is not as oily as it was before using this product. I would definitely recommend you give this a try...for the price its definitely worth it!

Pros It really drys out the pimple slowly removing it. It has not caused any reaction to my skin though mine is a very sensitive. I used to have red to brown marks on my face because of my pimples.With time it reduced the blemish on my face.
Cons It causes slight drying , which can be taken care of by using moisturiiser or using a scrub daily
Bottom line It is excellent if you are looking for a long term effect. The 3 months I have been using it. My acne outbreak has reduced so much.

Pros Gets the job done but takes a while.
Cons In the begining leaves skin very flakey and if it doesnt like you it will give you a reaction
Bottom line Well, it's good i use it daily but it's something that if you're looking for an overnight miricle it may or may not work. For the first month or so it makes your skin very sensitive dry flakey and red. But it works on pimples that spring up it's okay. NEVER pick at a pimple and then use this or put it on an open pimple. It will sting. A lot. A lot a lot a lot. I use it and hope for the best.

Pros none
Cons does not work
Bottom line I've used Neutrogena on-the-spot acne treatment for a month or longer and I can say that it does not work at all. I had two small pimples that I could feel developing and applied this on them but within a few days they have gotten worse. For the pimples that were already present, this product does nothing to them. All it does is leave dead dry skin where I mostly apply it.

It does not work at all.

Pros Pimples will go down, but will never vanish. It's effects can be felt even after hours, but not sure good or bad.
Cons Very drying, may cause dry red patches which resembles pimples but it's actually jus red spots. Even with moisturizers it's takes days to recover.

Bottom line I did not like this product at all. I used it today and I had an allergic reaction. My cheeks swelled up and it had a burning sensation. My face looks horrible today. I will never use this product again. I'd rather stick to Dove.

Pros it clears acne within 4 days ! the box gives alot of info unlike other pimple cream who just say the ingredient and the directions or w/e ! i really like this pimple cream as it tells everything you need to know ! REALLY RECOMMENDED !
Cons if you scratch your face after using it , you will find white things on your face but overall its kinda cheap , and good .
Bottom line its worth it to buy . i have been using OXY 10 but it helps little (VERY LITTLE) i got frustrated and bought a new pimple cream which was T3 it helped a little but its not worth it as you pay $5+ for not clearing up acne . so next i tried Clearasil , it sucks it doesn't do anything for me ! so i tried neutrogena on the spot and it works in less than 1 week !

So it really helps ! just down scratch your face after that :)

Pros none
Cons it dries out skin severely on the first use. causes a lot of peeling. does not work at all even though it claims to in the first four hours. i used it for 8 months and saw no results!
Bottom line it is pretty useless. do not waste your money on this product!

Pros takes irritation and redness levels way down
makes pimples smaller
Cons may dry face over time of use. -use a mosturizer, simply!
Bottom line i had very bad acne over the summer. all along my law line. cheecks, chin, sides of face. big -not small, red, irritated-looking pimples. i was using clearasil forever and it never did anything. i thought i had to use stuff that was harsh and "tough" so my acne could be "washed" away, but over the summer i actually came here and heard about the 2.5 ben over 10%. i was intrigued and found this product as a substitute for one of the regimen steps.
ive never used neutrogena before, just always clearisil. so, i bought this and neutrogenas acne wash and BAM! big difference after a week with noticible improvment everyday. i had scars on my face from always messing with them, but this made my scars vanish. so for me after a week i was all clear.
youll see results in as little as over night! this product is great. get it! you wont be disappointed. i love my face now! and can go out without make up if i wish i dont have to worry about what pipmle i have to cover with my make up or whatn
