| Pros | It really works!! I promise when you start using this product, you will rarely see pustules on your face or in other words, those white, ugly pimples on your pace. It kills the bacteria by providing oxygen and that stops those white pimples coming out. you will have some redness on your face left, but redness is fine than ugly white pimples. |
|---|---|
| Cons | I think, there are not cons necessarily!! May dry out skin a little bit, but drying is the major reason to kill the bacteria. Use this facewash one time and specially when you sleep. Use moisturizer in the morning. Best moisturizer i know is cetaphil |
| Bottom line | If you have those white ugly looking pimples. Don't worry, start using panoxyl and you will see results in the week. It will not cause you to breakout. some redness will be left behind but that's normal until your ugly pustules go away. Gently massage this product on your face for 2 minutes. Use only one time and specially before you go to the bed. |

| Pros | The best over the counter wash there is for average to somewhat moderate acne....Use it when your face gets oily and at least twice daily...Make sure you wash it in well and rinse in warm water but don't rub it off with a towel when drying..Costs about $10 at Wal Mart...For severe acne,you really will need medical help with some form of oral antibiotic.. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Dries the skin after a period of use..Do not use moisturizers with it at all !!!! |
| Bottom line | The best OTC item on the market... |
| Recommended | Yes |

| Pros | closes my pores for a while..not greasy |
|---|---|
| Cons | drys out your face veryy badly!! |
| Bottom line | i used this product for a week straight every morning and night. I didnt think my skin would get so dry! i woke up one morning with dry skin all around my mouth..i couldnt smile or laugh! i looked like an old women..i would put creams on but it would only burn..iv tried everything but nothing seems to work. I thought panoxyl would work but all it did was dry out my face to the extreeme. im now trying a home remedy..aloe vera gel straight from the plant..im praying that it will work!! i only use panoxly when i feel as if my face is greasy..it then doesnt dry out my face just feels refreshed! |

| Pros | - Works and works fast! |
|---|---|
| Cons | - Dries out skin, so not for daily use.. give your skin breaks from this product. - Bleaches clothes!!! Be careful! |
| Bottom line | I love that this is a prescription this way it cost me nothing. It works thats another reason I love this product. I dries fast and good to put on before bed. If your just starting to use it its best to slowly apply it and not use it everyday until you feel your skin is used to it. Because it could end up drying out your face and you'll end up peeling. I had this happen when I first started using this product years ago but now I have no problems with drying at all. I can use it daily with no irritation! So give your skin time to get use to this product. |

| Pros | My acne didn't have to go through that faze of "getting worse before it gets better"... like with most acne products. It has been nothing short of a miracle for me personally. |
|---|---|
| Cons | I haven't found any. I did not have a problem with it drying out my skin too much (I read that some readers did have an issue). I wash my face twice a day and moisturize once in the morning prior to putting on Bare Escentuals. |
| Bottom line | I know that everyone's skins is different... but for me this has been a wonderful find! I saw it at Walgreen's one day and decided to give it a try. I have tried MANY different prescriptions, ProActive (twice), Murad and various over the counter face washes, scrubs, gels, masks, etc. I use the 10% wash (not the bar) |

| Pros | Appears to work for some people |
|---|---|
| Cons | The 10% face wash permanently damaged my skin. |
| Bottom line | Used it for a week in conjunction with the BP cream. After a week, used it in the shower for the last time and came out with odd marks all over my nose. Looks like my skin peeled in certain places and not in others--like I stripped certain parts of a tan. Never went away, a year later. Hard to notice unless in certain lighting. Also resulted in broken blood vessels. |

| Pros | used the 10% bar with 10% topical gel- completly cleared my skin, inexpensive, easy to use |
|---|---|
| Cons | very drying- had to use eucerine creme as moisturizer every time i washed my face which made it more oily (but clear!), bleached towels, bedsheets, and clothes |
| Bottom line | if you're looking for an inexpensive way to treat moderate acne, i recommend this product. i used the 10% bar along with the 10% topical gel am and pm for 2 years. although it completly cleared my skin, it was harsh and really dried it out. the only moisturizer that worked was eucerine creme which i applied over the topical gel am and pm. that made my skin oily so i did have to use oil sheets and reapply my powder a few times throughout the day. overall i was very happy with the results from this product :) |

| Pros | Smooth and clear acne free skin |
|---|---|
| Cons | A slight dry, chapped feeling but hardly noticeable after putting on a moisturizer. I've tried other highly recommended cleansers that leave my face feeling like it has a plastic shield on.. this will not dry out your skin like that, just moisturize! |
| Bottom line | Great product. I've been trying everything and recently stopped using sulfur soap after it failed to clear up my skin. Like many of the other reviews said, I saw results in two days. It was really incredible because usually I have to wait weeks of following an elaborate regimen to finally get clear skin. For those that also have blackheads, they have not been totally cleared. But I was mainly concerned about having red acne all over my face, especially on my cheeks. I still have some minor scarring but my breakouts are gone! My skin looks and feels healthy. I'm still amazed that this has been at the drugstore all the years I've been spending money on wasteful creams and lotions. I urge people of all skin types to go out and give it a shot! |

| Pros | Helps acne clear up in the first month |
|---|---|
| Cons | It stops working after a month and just dries your skin out... I got more zits after a month! |
| Bottom line | I was soooo happy to use this product until it stopped working. Now I'm really dissapointed... I don't feel like anything is working anymore and I guess I'm just going to stay with acne for my whole life! VERY dissapointed. I'm glad it worked for everyone else but it didn't clear up my acne. |
