Pros:

I used biooil all over my face, which intially worked well, but the 2nd time it left me with small minute whiteheads and bumps all over my face, as well as teh acne that i suffer from. I used quinoderm after hearing great reviews, and it got rid of those and made the acne better too.It does get rid of spots quikcly and isnt overly drying. its very cheap! the cheapest acne product ive ever used, and is fairly effective.

Cons:

The only con is that after working well for a few days it actually broken me out on my forehead quite bad and one one side of my face weirdly! it was quite bad. So i stopped using it and started again and it has really helped with the spots again?? weird.

Its a good cream and did make my face look so much better the 1st time i used it, now im using it again for a a few days and its getting better again, but remmeber it did break my out quite bad too. I would definetly recommend this. Go and try this!

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:

I used it for a few days and i saw great improvement. Really nice but expensive where i live since only one store sells it.

Cons:

burns sometimes
kinda smell bad
leaves skin flaky

Its great trust me. I dont think it should be sold for so much money but its great. Us3ed it for like a week and saw improvement but used it with a blemish control soap called Black Opal.

Pros:

Works better than any other treatment I've tried and believe me that's a lot lol!!!

Cons:

Made my face extremely dry at first and smells quite bad for a little while.

Well worth trying I only use the 5% cream once a day as it dried my face too much otherwise it still works though. Nearly stopped using it after about 2 weeks as my face got bad again but I persevered and now my face is completely clear for the 1st time in 5 years. Make sure you wait a while after washing your face before applying this cream though as otherwise it stings and makes your face go red.

Pros:

its relatively cheap, its strong- 10% benzoyl Peroxide and has a anti microbial so its better than single treatments like panoxyl.

Cons:

the burn! for me it stings like a bitch when i first put it on (especially if i've just had a shave!) but the burn only lasts for 30 seconds or so then dies down. oh and smells a little like anti-septic BUT not too bad n dies down after a bit.

i really like it, its strong with microbial action so its better than single treatments. Bit of a burn to it when first put on but not too bad n only for 30secs or so. might be worth starting off on the 5% strength then move up after a couple of weeks to let your skin adjust if you still need to. As UK acne treatments go this is one of the strongest and so far one of the best

Pros:

completely clears spots. amazing stuff.

Cons:

stings when first applied & drys out skin

amazing stuff!!!!! never had anything like it before i would deffo recommend!! its amazing! drys out skin but thats okay compared to a red spotty face :| plus a moisturiser can fix it. I havent been this happy in a long time.. i dont have major acne ive just got mild to moderate.. but still any spots can make a person change their outlook on things i dont look away from people anymore when they look at me and stuff, tis just amazing!!!!!
