Pros Cleared up my spots
Cons dried out skin
Bottom line This cleared up my spots really well. I've tried hundreds of creams before, from off the shelf remedies to specialist products from dermatologists costing over £100. This is the only thing that has worked for me so far and it's made a dramatic difference to my skin. The only side effect is that it makes my skin really dry. I used the 10% cream at first and this burnt my face and I came out in a horrible rash. I now use the 5% cream, at first for 2/3 days a week until I got used to it. I'm now using it every day (only once a day though) alongside Garnier Hydralock cream to combat the dryness and this seems to be working. I think it's worth the initial dry skin to clear up the acne as dry skin is so easy to treat. I've now been using Quinoderm for 4 weeks and the difference in my skin is amazing. My skin is really sensitive but I've managed to control the side effects so i'd definitely recommend it.

Pros Got rid of my spots and pimples very fast.
Cons Dried sin out made it feel sore.
Bottom line This cream wored very well for me, i had quite bad acne on my chest and after only 3days its cleared 95% of it up. I also had minor acne on my face, and its cleared all of it up minus one spot.... but.... My face now feels very sore and tight, it now has a bumpy dry feeling to it, and when applying makeup it creates dry patches because of the condition of my skin. I have been using aqueous cream (moistouriser for burns) and even this only makes my skin feel good for a few seconds before feeling lie sandpaper.

Only use this product if your willing to make the sacrifice: Iv exchanged spotty skin for dry skin... and for me thats better. But soon i might change my mind .

Pros Very good at drying up oily spots and oily patches on the skin
Cons if you use this too much it may, dry the skin, need to moisturise with something like aqueous cream
Bottom line Great for drying out spots!

a good tip is get aloe vera gel and a few drops of tea tree oil and apply as like face mask and allow it to soak in before you go to bed at night, use a moisturiser if u need to after

Pros cheap
effective
fast
Cons burning sensation?
Bottom line Amazing product. Been on and off god knows how many pills + antibiotic lotions, but this is it. Started a couple of months ago, you feel a burning sensation at first, dies down within seconds and slap on some moisturiser and hey presto, you're fine. All the big spots died down within about a week and since then all the cystic, whiteheads, blackheads, big fat red spots, whatever .... they've virtually all gone, exposing my scarring and a few red patches that are slowly healing up.

Used this for about 3 months now and my god am I the happiest man on earth!

Pros Very affordable
Cons Did not agree with my skin - it turned incredibly dry and scaly - redder than ever. Bleached my bedsheets/pillowcases (although it does warn on the packaging)
Bottom line After reading all of the reviews on this site, I was feeling very optimistic at trying out this product but after several months use (5%), I've decided to stop using it as I have noticed no improvement. If anything, my skin is in a worse state than ever.

Pros Skin is 99.9% acne free! Surprisingly gentle on my skin at 10%. I only use it once a day after showering and touch up dryness with Vaseline Essential Moisture. About 4 Pounds Sterling in UK for 50g.
Cons None for me!
Bottom line The best, I use 10%.
The other ingredients Lactic acid, helps flakes and the petrolatum moisturizes the skin. The other antibacterial ingredient helps calm redness and gives the benzoyl peroxide an added kick.

Pros Clears Acne in 3-5 Days
Keeps clear when using daily
Really Works
Cons Can sting
Can dry skin
Can mess dyed fabrics
Bottom line Starts to work on first app, may cause skin to burn or sting and turn red. Once a few days past it will not hurt anymore, you may need to moisturize but be thankful you will have smooth spot free skin within a week.
I have used this for just under 6months, my confidence is through the roof now without spots.

I would advise sensitive skin to use the "5" then move to 10 after a few weeks, however many can use 10 with a decent moisturizer.
