Pros:

you think it's working when you first try and it's exciting due to the tingling although i believe it's just a mental thing, after watching the ads and reading the packaging you would be sure that it would work in 8 hours!
it goes on clear!

Cons:

that tingling turns to intense burning after the third or forth try, it cracks and flakes the skin and for me it caused my acne to get worse! after a week i ended up with big sore, red spots all over.

i do not recommend this product, it doesn't work in 8 hours , it doesn't even work in three weeks! It burns your skin and causes more breakouts. i'm not sure why they claim 8 hours, is that even possible from any treatment!

Pros:

reduced redness, size, and swelling,--just like it said--, smells nice, goes on clear

Cons:

dried out skin, kinda stings, the bottle is only like 1.7 oz. or something like that.

i guess it would depend on what kind of skin you have, but i would say definately try it.-works fast and leaves your skin shine free =]

Pros:

It's really cheap, and it doesn't smell like anything!

Cons:

Irritates my skin and if I use it during the day it gives me a rash, Really really small bottle, DOES NOT WORK AT ALL

This is probably the most over-advertised and over-rated product in history. Clears up in 8 hours? Don't think so. It didn't work at all for me! It just irritated my skin so much I had to stop using it. My acne didn't clear up, and my face just got red and itchy. The bottle had probably enough for about five applications, which is ridiculous, because that means you pay about two dollars per application for something that doesn't work at all. Ripoff!

Pros:

its a clear solution, so you cant see it once its applied. it also has an intresting smell, that i have to say i kind of like if its not too strong.

Cons:

it taked longer than 8 hours, it takes a few days to see it gone, or significantly decrease.

It works well on pimples that have already been rubbed, treated with something else, or picked/scrated at(by that i mean it takes the redness and inflamation away) unfortunataly, it can also realy dries out these kind of pimples if u use the product for more than 2 days, or if u put it on too often/too much.

Pros:

works as a spot treatment

Cons:

stings a little, too much makes you breakout

This stuff works pretty well as long as you dont use a lot!! Do NOT apply this like you would BP, only apply this gel on large pimples (like a spot treatment). I have found that applying it all over my face causes breakouts but using it just on spots overnight helps a lot. I use this overnight to clear my pores and then I use clearasil ultra 10% BP during the daytime to dry up any remainig pimples-- its been working very well for me!

Pros:

Goes on clear and shine free!

Cons:

DOESN'T DO ANYTHING!

This stuff I tried using for at least 2 weeks with my daily routine and it didn't do a darn thing! Sorry guys, but don't even bother with this stuff.

Pros:

Totally reduced redness, which means visiblilty, in 4 hours.

Cons:

Stung after using twice in one day.

If you feel a pimple emerging or have a brand new one, this is what to use. Put some on and the redness vanishes and use it twice a day for the emerging ones and they won't emerge. Really helped me before school.
