Pros:

It does work, and is nicely absorbed into the skin unlike panoxyl becasue it is a creamy base

Cons:

does sting (but that mean its works)
takes about week or 2 for skins to adjust to but bare thru it!
if skin does gets too dryflaky apply a light amount of oil free moisturizer!

have tried alot of things (like most people) I would def recommend it, its made a big difference, b4 i use to get numerous big lumpy pimples espically on my cheeks, which effected my confidence alot! since using this in the morning and night (after washing my face with the quinoderm anti bacterial facewash) i now get only 1 or 2 pimples which arent even half as bad as what i use to get SUMMARY: , i wash my face (with face wash) in the morning, pat down with towel, apply cream in blobs on my cheeks, nose, fore head and chine, then join these blobs up so face is covered with thin layer of cream and let it absorb (takes 10 mins) i repeat this routine before i go to bed!!! i would recommend getting it off amazon as saves the embarrassment of going to the store and you can order both the face wash and cream together in one order i first tried the quinoderm 5 but gone onto 10 as i think its more effective....my confidence is alot better!!!!!!

Pros:

Reduces number of blemishes, redness, size of existing spots and prevents new ones from forming! it actually works! :D

Cons:

You have to ask for it over the counter at a pharmacy (some might be embarrassed), can dry you out, can bleach pillowcases if you use it right before bed.

I bought my Quinoderm at Boots - it cost £4-5 for the 50g tube. Its a creamy consistency which i prefer to gels and you only need two pea sized amounts to cover your whole face. Now for me this has been a life saver! I'm 22 and have tried EVERYTHING else, including Roaccutane, until reading about Quinoderm on here. Ok my skin still isn't 100% clear but after only 1 months usage my skin is the clearest its been for many years. I currently have only three visible spots! After the first week my skin did become a bit dry and flakey but i have countered this by using olive oil soap every other day to add some mild moisture. In my opinion this cream is well worth a try. Its worked wonders for me - I hope it does for you too!

Pros:

Dries out spots, reduces size of pores, makes skin less oily. Clears up acne :)

Cons:

Stings after first few days of application, but this dies down after about 30 seconds. After about a week, you should be able to apply the cream without any stinging at all. Dries out skin, but a good moisturizer can combat this.

This is a miracle cream! After trying PanOxyl 2.5 aquagel which burned my face, this stuff is genius :) Today is the sixth day I've used this product (2 applications a day), and my skin is the clearest it's been since I was about 13. My forehead (which had the least acne) is completely clear now, it looks amazing, and the rest of my face is slowly catching up. When washing my face in the morning, I've started exfoliating with a gentle scrub because skin can get a bit flakey during the first few days, and this makes it hard to apply make up. But the exfoliator buffs away any dry bits of skin. However, this might not be suited to everyone so be careful. But seriously try this product, I paid £3.50 for mine, and it's the best £3.50 I've ever spent :) Also, I recommend the 5% for first time users. Good luck !

Pros:

Actually does what it claims
Reduces redness and drys out spots

Cons:

It's a BP supplement so your face can become addicted to it if used often
Bleaches all materials it comes into contact with including pillows, towels and clothes

I've been using this on and off for the past 4 years and it works great. I have very oily skin so I use it once in the morning and at night. It does dry out your face though so I would recommend using it with a moisturiser to combat flakes.

works.. cheap.. actually gets rid of my acne.

Cons:

stings a lil ( but must mean it works! ) smelly

actually works within a few days.. might take weeks for some, but worth it ! i feel better about not having to wear cakey makeup now, so i can give my skin a rest without worrying about a big fat spot some where on my face... gave me my confidence back... i feel better about my skin , and it looks 100 percent better now.

Pros:

Clears up spots well, makes them less red and generally smoothens the skin.

Cons:

It has made my average strength skin very slightly dry.

I have only used this product 4 times (once the night I got it, twice the next day-morning and evening- and once this morning-to be used again later- and it has work amazingly! In under 48 hours my skin looks a lot better and all the spots on the left side of my back (which was less affected) have all calmed down and my right side (which was badly affected) is still less red, smoother and the spots are smaller. My chest was also affected with a few big spots scattered about (not many smaller ones) and they are all less red and some have disappeared. What I do is I put some Clearasil clean and refine on my back and chest. Then in the shower I scrub the stuff off my back and wash the cream on my chest off without a sponge, just in the shower stream. I then dry myself and apply the Quinoderm cream. This has worked really well and i hope it carries on. Seriously try it!
