Pros:

Dries out your spots

Cons:

Does not work over night but needs about a week or two application.

This stuff does sting the skin and I bought it as I had a wedding coming up and wanted clear skin..in three days. Yes I know..nothing can really clear the skin in three days especially not hard cyst type spots, which was what I was suffering with. Anyway I tried it and yes it does dry out your spots and it turns the skin over helping to shed away all the old cells and dirt which cause spots. I am impressed with the results as my skin is starting to look totally acne free however it is very drying. It did reduce the redness and shrink the spots after two applications so you do notice results quickly. Being 28 and having started to see the signs of aging I do worry about using this product but its a toss up really...aging skin or spots? I will continue to use this if I am having very bad breakouts but I certainly do not think i would continue with this product after using it consistently for a month as I really dont want the long term wrinkled effect.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Doesn't work at all! Quinoderm 10% dried out skin and didn't clear up acne. Quinoderm 5% did not make any difference just more comedones.

Waste of time and money.

Pros:

Really drys out spots , smooths skin , cheap.

Cons:

Smells a bit odd. Bleaches towels . sometimes dries out skins and causes flaking.

Despite the cons , it really helps with my acne and the dryness can be sorted with a strong moisturiser !!

Pros:

none!

Cons:

rubs in quickly, more moisturising than the panoxyl, works really well :)

My skin is sooo much better since using this. Panoxyl was making my skin dry and flaky and seemed to take ages to sink in, wasnt helping my spots much either. As long as you wash your hands thoroughly and wait after applyinf a few mins, you should not harm clothes. None of mine are bleached or discoloured and am using twice a day!

Pros:

None at all

Cons:

Made me look like a beetroot, made me nearly want to itch my face off, smells horrible, doesn't work at all, made my skin extremely dry.

I read reviews about people using this product got dry itchy skin, and I overlooked it as i've used a lot of different products on my skin over time, but JESUS none of them have EVER done what this product has done to me. I used the tinyest, little dab on the few spots I have left last night before I went to bed, and i'm literally writing this as soon as I woke up, I didn't have more than 2 hours sleep, first my face was burning, then the itching came, at 3:00 am I went to get a drink of water and saw my face was bright red, it was stinging all over and felt horrible, even opening my mouth hurt. Then my throat started to swell up too and now it feels like i've got a sore throat. Seriously this stuff is evil, I can't really say whether it works or not because i'm throwing it away right now, after just one application i'll never go back to that - it's not worth it, nothing is worth that - makes you look even worse, and feel - terrible. You have been warned!
