Pros Works very fast if used with oil free moisturizer
Cons -Need to be used with a moisturizer because it dries skin out

-makes skin look worse after you use it but clears skin over the day
Bottom line I combine this product with marcelle ac-solution anti-imperfection in the morning as soon as i get out of the shower and my pores are dilated and it does wonder.

For the night i simply use a normal oil free moisturizer after cleansing with the pad to calm my skin down and regenerate it over the night

i had a lot of acne before and now most of it is pretty much gone... ive only been using it for a week and already it has done more for me than any other product

Pros Deep cleans
Inexpensive
Helps preventing new acne
Cons Strong alcohol smell
Oil production increases
Bottom line I've always had good success using Oxy products. For the past year or so, I've used the Oxy wash with some positive success. However, I was still getting new pimples from time to time. I have hormonal type acne and they usually form on my chin area. I decided to try the cleansing pads in hoping that they will further clean and prevent new spots. My first reaction after using the pad is that it really deep cleans. I can see the dirt and oil on the pad even after I wash my face. That tells me washing alone doesn't get rid of all buildups. But be careful when you use it near your eyes, they will sting (more so if you wear contacts). I haven't had any major breakout since I started using the pads. However, my oil production seems to have increased from it. My face usually gets very oily and shiny just a few hours later. I'm not sure if it's because my pores are unclogged after using the pad and allow the oil to surface or if it's my skin produces more oil to counter the dryness. The only thing I dislike about this product is the alcohol level is pretty high and the strong fragrance smell. But I will continue to use them because my face feels and looks much healthier from the cleansing pads.

Pros -saw immediate results
-no acne has returned since using the product
-it's inexpensive
-easy to use
-it fades acne scars
-it WORKS
Cons -some may feel the product is a little "harsh" though I kind of liked it because it feels like NO acne could possibly SURVIVE this product!
Bottom line I don't really have acne problems except for on my chin, however, this has been a problem area for me for some time. I tried many different products and nothing helped. I even tried different brands of astringents which I would have though would have dried them out, but none worked. I tried Oxy on a whim and I am SO glad I did! I had maybe 5 or 6 pimpled on my chin when I tried it. I used the product and went to sleep. The next morning 3 of the pimples had gone completely FLAT. There was nothing left of them. The 2 that had remained took about a week to go away (I think this was my fault though, cause I was picking at them!)
Oxy had gotten rid of my VERY stubborn acne and now I am acne FREE!

Note: I used one Oxy pad in the morning and one at night, nothing else. I am also really bad for sticking to regimens, but this was really easy for me. I also don't usually right reviews, I actually came to this website and set up an account, so I could specifically right this review!

Pros -Works fairly well
Cons -Odd scent.
-Stings a little.
Bottom line A good product. May irritate skin a little if used too much, and a odd scent and some stinging, other then that no complaints. Always noticed a change for the better in my acne after use.

Pros easy to use, no water needed, very effective at clearing skin.
Cons none really...
Bottom line i started breaking out about a month ago for some inexplicable reason... my skin care routine at the time wasn't helping in the slightest. i went down to cvs and got these. within about a week, i had remarkably clearer skin. this works faster at clearing problematic skin than anything else i've used, and i've used everything from neutrogena, to aveeno, to clean & clear... this by far works this best.

people seem to think these are excessively drying, though i honestly haven't experienced that. granted, i wouldn't skip using a moisturizer while using these, but this stuff isn't any harsher than anything else i've used.

Pros -cleans skin
-prevents future break outs most of the time, and when it does happen it is very little and the pimples go away after a couple days after continued use
Cons -none
Bottom line Best product I have ever used. I am using triple action oxy but this is the same. I used to use oxy deep pore when i was younger and never had any major break outs, but then I stopped using it for some reason. Thats when i broke out like crazy, resorted to accutane two cycles then retin a for scars and i pretty much screwed up my skin. Now since ive been using oxy pads i dont have any pimples and the scars have faded because of retin a and la roche posay thermal water. Trust me if you don't want your pimples to be large and cause scarring use oxy pads fades them quickly.

Pros -Clears skin overnight. (not completely tho, of course)
-Leaves your skin feeling clean.
-Great for combination/oily skin.
Cons -Very very strong smell
-May sting if u have any open sores
Bottom line I'm in love with these pads. Theyre super thin but completely drenched in whatever chemicals they use to clear the skin. The first noticed i used it i noticed a huge difference in my pimple size..a decrease of about 85%!! i use these about 4 or 5x a week, i dont use them everyday cuz i dont want my skin to become immune to it and start to break out. But it hasnt yet and overall i love these pads!
