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:

Spots do go reasonably quickly

Cons:

Extremely dry skin and redness!!!!!

I have suffered from acne for years but always just 'put up with it' but had a really bad outbreak and a friend recommended to me. The first 3 days i used it there were no problems and my spots got noticeably better, but on day 4 my skin went really really red and dry and itched terribly to the point of wanting to stratch my face off!!! I am moisturising but as at day 5 it still looks and feels as bad, maybe i just over used it wanting the results or it did not agree with me. I would recommend but proceed with caution.........

Cons:

VERY VERY DRY skin when u use it, Burns Alot Feels like my face is on fire when i use it

Quinoderm can be good in some cases but im not sure i have uses it for about 4 days no wand my skin is so dry mosturiser cant even help it people will probably say then dont use it so often but i only use it once a day im gonna start to use it once every 2 days and if that doesnt work then i might change to a lower consistence with 5%

Pros:

dried up the spots

Cons:

very harsh dry rash developed redness and swelling after 3 days of use.

Anything is worth a try! But is there a cure for the side effects? Dont use if you have sensitive skin!!

Pros:

Worked almost immediately to start controlling my mild - moderate acne (mainly on my cheeks and forehead). Skin is already much smoother and I'm so much more confident after only 2 weeks use.

Cons:

Smell isn't great, and packaging is horrible - no one wants a big blue tube saying 'acne' in their bathroom cabinet! It would be better if it was more subtle. It's also causing some slight dryness on certain parts of my face.

This is working for me overall, but just wondering if the additional peeling and dryness stops at any point? I've been using it a couple of weeks and it is leaving some small dry patches on my face. I'm controlling it with moisturiser, but just wondered whether this is something that will get better as my skin gets used to quinoderm or not?
