Pros:It's cheap, easy to get your hands on, easy to apply and produces fast results. I personally haven't experienced any burning, for me when I put it on it just tingles, feels refreshing and smells nice. It reduces spots and greasy patches over night.
Cons:You look stupid with it on and it can leave red marks where a spot once was, although this usually looks better than grease and spots. Doesn't stop further breakouts (only a temporary solution- can't change your genes or hormones)
Bottom Line:It won't get rid of alot of your blackheads and won't prevent your skin from getting greasy again at some point therefore probably won't prevent further breakouts. However, it's great for quickly reducing most spots and gently drying out greasy areas of skin (temporarily). I swear it gets rid of some blackheads aswell. I think it's fine to sleep with it on, which is what I do but it's not a good idea to use it every night because it'll aggravate and dry your skin out too much.

Pros:It works really quick- you see results the first time you use it. It's also something that you should already have at home and doesn't cost too much.
Cons:If you use a whitening toothpaste, it will make your skin more sensitive because whitening toothpastes are meant to take off some enamel on your teeth and when applied to your face, it'll take a little skin off.
Burns the first time (only)
Bottom Line:It works for my skin really well, but definitely don't use whitening toothpaste!!!! I sometimes use it overnight, but then i wake up with toothpaste on my pillow and my hair stuck in the toothpaste (yuck). So I'd recommend you put it on in the morning and night when you have a couple of hours to yourself and then take it off before you go out in public or go to sleep.

Pros:It dries out your skin, making it dry out a bit, but not bad at all; cool, tingly feeling; makes acne less noticable.
Cons:Burns the first time you've tried it, but you get used to it.
Bottom Line:It works. Don't expect the pimples to just zap away in an hour, because that's not too realistic. Use it morning and night, and maybe you'll see a difference. It's cheaper than your average acne product, and hey, it has two different uses! The only thing that I'd suggest is to keep your bangs or hair off your face while the toothpaste dries. It depends on your skin type, and your acne type, but it's worth a shot. :)

Pros:smells minty fresh lol, dries up spots quick
Cons:BURNS!!!!!!! like hell for a while then you should get used to it
Bottom Line:is to use it 30mins at a night before you go to bed or whenever you are alone coz you look ridiculous with it on lol. so just use it like the guy said

" DO NOT LEAVE IT ON OVERNIGHT. If you use it for about 30 minutes as a SPOT TREATMENT only, it really works. "

Pros:Clears my acne, leaves my face feeling smooth and minty fresh
Cons:Can burn, doesn't dry well
Bottom Line:It clears up my zits better than my proactive; however, it irritates some people's skin. Works well for some, not as well for others. For me, it's the best thing I've ever used.

Pros:Feels tingly, refreshing at first
Cons:After a while it starts to sting and your instincts start begging you to get the stuff off your face.
Bottom Line:Well, this is only the second time I've used it ever and both times nothing came of it for me, though I refuse to sleep in it because of what it does to some people. However, I have a friend who swears by it and you can visibly see the results on her. I guess it just depends largely on your own skin.
Recommended:No

Pros:cheap, tingly
Cons:slow-acting, gels not dries
Bottom Line:I've left this product on overnight, and all I'm left with is gelled toothpaste on my pillow and face. It doesn't dry well, but I could definitely feel it acting on my skin. I recommend nightly treatments for a week once a month.
