Pros:

-Works really well
- In a creamy base so not harsh
- Value for money (only £3.80 per 50g tube)

Cons:

- Need to purchase in a pharmacy over here in the UK ( not a big deal though)

I am using Quinoderm 5 with the regimen and my skin is almost clear with a few red marks and light brown scars. As we don't get a variety of benzoyl peroxide creams/gels here, Quinoderm was the cheapest and probably most gentle BP I have used and much better than Panoxyl which was horrendous and dried me up like a prune or even Neutrogena. As it's in a creamy base, it's easy to rub in and blends great with most moisturising lotions and I just apply my makeup over it, unlike Panoxyl which emusifies and turns into white gloop over my face. I highly recommend it to folks who live here in the UK .

Pros:

If you use it twice a day i garauntee that your spots will calm down within hours and disappear completely with continued use. This really is almost too good to be true-it works so well and it is so cheap.

Cons:

The cream can at times be very drying leaving you with 'face dandruff' but this usually disappears within a day. Who cares if it can bleach fabrics if it totally prevents spots!

You simply cannot buy a more effective, inexpensive, non-prescription acne treatment. I cannot understand how more people aren't talking about/using this product-it's just amazingly good.

AFTER SPENDING HUNDREDS OF POUNDS ON SKIN CLEARING CREAMS, EXFOLIATORS AND FACE WASHES I BOUGHT THIS 2 DAYS AGO FOR £3.80 AND THE RESULTS ARE AMAZING THIS IS AFTER 3 YEARS OF MILD ADULT ACNE. THE BEST CREAM EVER.

Pros:

only product that has worked, cleared up all my spots after 2 months.

Cons:

dryness at first but goes after a month. when you start using it start with small amounts and a good moisturiser to lessen the dryness.

it really works! i now use this once or twice a day around the nose area and i haven't had spots in months. if i forget to use a for a few nights i will get one or two but they go quickly.

Pros:

Best product on sale, clears blocked pores, fades scarring, evens out skin tone And most importantly .. IT WORKS!!

Cons:

Flakey Skin, Some slight burning when over used.

This product is one of the best products at controlling acne. I have tried roactutane, differin, retinol A and every other product out there for acne! My routine is i use clearasil stayclear face wash, once a day i use quinoderm, ifrared lamp (ITS AMAZING) and Vasalene moisturiser Aloe Vera one .. Calms the skin and DOES NOT block pores. I have had acne 10years and now my face is clear!! Remem if you want your acne gone then the best way is to treat it !!

Pros:

Very Cheap, you can buy it in so many places, can wear it under make-up, and most importantly - it works!!!

Cons:

Results are addictive - even when my skin is clear, I still use it and worry that my skin will get bad over night if I don't!

I have suffered from acne for the past ten years, and have come to terms with the fact I will never truly be rid of it. However, Quinoderm has brought it completely under my control - I no longer get large, painful cyst-like spots, and I swear my skin heals faster! My scarring seems to have faded also. My skin has also developed a restance to its drying effects, and I feel confident using an ordinary, non-acne-treatment cleanser. Excellent product - I just hope they keep making it!! Bottom line is, I started using Quinoderm 4 years ago, and my acne has gone from severe and soul destroying to the odd hangover pimple. Maybe its a result of getting older, but nevertheless, my skin has recovered miraculously from its pre-quinoderm damage.

Pros:

Fast acting, good price and has sorted out my skin =D

Cons:

Slight burning sensation at first but my skin has got used to it now

I am actaully amazed by this cream! After 2 days i was noticing a major difference and it has made me more happier. I have been suffering from spots along my jaw line and around my chin for the past 4 months. I have the contraceptive implant in my arm and recently my hormones have been all over the shop and it has caused me to have terrible skin. At first i used clearasil face wash and it burnt my face like hell and left me with major dry flakey skin around my nose and chin. Now i just wash my face with Clean and Clear face wash in the morning and night and apply Quinoderm afterwards! 100% impressed with this product
