Pros From the moment I've started using this a week ago, I've noticed a big difference in my skin. I happened to develop a huge zit on my cheek two days after I purchased this. My zits are usually really stubborn, but this product dried it up in one night, and by the next night it was all but gone. Only a small red mark. I had whiteheads invading my cheek and nose area, but ever since I've used this I've noticed everything smoothing out drastically.
Cons Stings a bit, of course. That comes with the territory. Makes skin feel really dry if moisturizer isn't dabbed on over it right away.
Bottom line Perfect for those who want to wear something to kill their acne 24/7. All those harsh chemical products in stores, this is a great alternative to them. I was worried if I dabbed some during the day and night, it would dry my skin out way too much. It hasn't at all, every product I've used does that eventually. I'm very impressed, and highly recommend.
Price paid $22.00

Pros Quickly dried out my spots with no severe burning or itchy sensations. Product is light, sinks into skin easily. A little goes a long way.
Cons None really.
Bottom line I really have tried every lotion n potion out there and nothing has worked like this stuff. Think the difference is this uses sulfur and salicylic acid instead of benzyl peroxide so u get the drying out without the burning or the redness. I have very sensitive skin but this stuff was great. I applied once a day but u can apply up to 3x daily. I used it in conjunction with the foam facial cleanser and the retinol lotion. I also used hope in a jar moisturiser. Great products all round! Just difficult to get hold of in UK.
I bought the spot treatment whilst in the US. Not sure how much I paid but it was well worth it!
Price paid $50.00

Pros Sinks into skin quickly, smells light, easy to apply, works quickly, lasts a long time
Cons None
Bottom line I really love this product. Some people say they have not seen the best results, but it definitely worked for me. I use a lot of the Philosophy line, though, so maybe this works best when used with other products of its brand. I use the "purity made simple" cleanser, then the spot treatment, and then the "hope in a bottle" moisturizer. This has been the only thing to really clear up my face after searching for years!

Pros It dries out the zit quickly.
Cons I didn't notice a huge difference from other less expensive brands I have used. It does burn a tad on some applications.
Bottom line I was expecting much more. I paid $80.00 for a 4 pc acne kit which included this blemish gel.

I like it but have a tough time finding it anywhere. It works very well (and I have tried *everything*). It goes on easy, works quickly, and did not bother my skin. It's pricy, but you don't need to use too much, so I'd recommend it over many of the cheaper solutions.

This product is pretty good. It causes breakouts to dry out pretty quickly. Can cause burning if any open spot on the skin.

Some spots are tougher then others but this gel really sucks up all the nasy junk and leaves you with a flak of skin where the pimple once was.
Can be applied 1-3 times a day and by the next morning you'll see that pimple no more.
I find its better as an on the spot, rather then an all over treatment-it stings and the odor isnt that pleasant but overall a good product.
