Pros:No possible acne, zitz, blackheads, or pustules in sight!!
Cons:dry skin in non-oiliy and normal skin areas, if you have even mildy sensitive skin this will devistate your face in all wyas possible!
Bottom Line:i dont have overall facial acne but ihave lots of little red dots on my forehead and n those tricky spots by my nostrils/ mouth. i get alot of not very noticable bumps around my cheeks and have some zit scars from picking at them and the odd papule or pustule. i've had super sensitive skin since i can remember ( allergic to simple things like dish soap, nail polish remover, and almost all facial makeup).

this product banished all zits but i had dry skin on the forehead and nose (wierd, because there my problem areas) and i got a little red and blotchy.

Was great for zits, but not good for redness or pore size, made me slightly greasy and gave my skin more problems to make up for the ones it got rid off. very harsh but if your face is out of control , i recomend.

Pros:Soft skin
Minimizes blackheads
Reduced acne on forehead
Cons:More red acne
More whiteheads
Doesn't keep skin oil-free very long
Bottom Line:I started using this product about a month ago. I really like it. Everytime I wash my face, it feels soft right afterward. The thing is, that feeling doesn't last very long. My skin gets oily in about an hour. I'm not talking very oily but still, it shouldn't do that. The strange thing is it cleared my acne in certain places, while intensifying acne in other places. My cheeks have about 10 small, red, no puss, pimples. People have complained about dry skin. I don't get dry skin at all. It's probably because I have oily skin. One more thing is your face does get a little itchy here and there, but thats probably because of the benzoyle peroxide. Bottomline: Good product for Matt from Detroit, but you need to find what works for you. I would recommend you try this product, but rememeber, no one treatment is good for everybody.

Pros:oxy works perfectly!! its amazing!! it gets rid of acne fast!! it starts working in just one day
Cons:i cant think of any.....
Bottom Line:i love oxy because it cleared up my acne fast. going into high school is scary and with all the stress comes more acne!! i tried everyhting and no cleanser seemed to work. a friend told me about oxy so i tried it and in just one day my acne cleared up. it takes about a week or two for all your acne to go away but you'll start seeing results in just one night. its really amazing and i recomend it to everyone. its also unscented so you son have to worry about not liking the smell.

Pros:Affordable, it feels good when you lather it on your skin, even after washing. I've yet to see the results as I am just on my first week of using Oxy.
Cons:My skin gets a little dry. Use moisturizer after washing.
Bottom Line:I've read a lot of good comments for this product that's why I bought it but I haven't seen changes yet except for dryness, and that is maybe because I just started using it. I'm excited though for any positive changes.
