Pros:

Attacks acne fervently, is probably the most efficient spot cream in the business.

Cons:

Results may decrease after a month of application.

Starts off well, but soon loses its spice.

Pros:

Helps with acne in time.
Especially effective in the T-zone (for tiny frequent spots)
Quinoderm 5 is the most ideal thing for the Regimen in the UK I feel.
Vastly reduces the frequency of larger cysts and inflammatory spots.
The cheapest thing ever!

Cons:

Vastly drying.
Hard to wear makeup over the top without looking like a cakey flaking mess.

This stuff is quite amazing I use it regularly as part of my Regimen. I've been using it for about 6 weeks and it really has made a difference especially to my t zone area which flared after I started working nights at a rock club. However you will need to use a decent oil free moisturiser with this one as it dries you out something chronic! I recommend Dermalogica Active Moist as it delivers enough moisture to get rid of flakes (and allow foundation to be applied over the top) but without being a massive clogger! Back to Quinoderm 5, it's readily available at Boots or [link removed] where you can bulk buy :D Which is good news for us Regimen users in the UK! I wouldn't get the full strength Quinoderm unless you have real tough skin like a baby rhino cos that stuff is way too harsh to use with the Regimen!

Pros:

Fight spots fast. Cheap compared to other types. Easy to find. No main side effects

Cons:

Dry skin after using it for a month or so. I mean, kinda bad, if you reaply water to the face it eventually goes towards the afternoon. I have used moist-creams befor, but they often bring back spots.
If you stop using this cream, YOUR SPOTS WILL

a product that finally works, thank you

Pros:

On first using it, it completely cleared my skin up and smoothed over bumps on my forehead.

However i've had to start changing from how often I use it to try and find the right balance so I don't get too dry skin.

Cons:

After a while a started to get a fair bit of dry skin. Mind you I did have combination skin to begin with and my sister who had more oily skin has found it hasn't dried out hers and her spots are still gone!

it wouldn't stop me using it thoug

If you use this, you're gonna need a moisturiser -i'm yet to find the perfect one, If only they could release a specific moisturiser designed to work with quinoderm! It works, oh it does work.. but after a while you'll need to find a balance finding how much to put on, how often, when to put on your moisturiser (as you don't want to stop the quinoderm working).. As it varies from person to person you'll need to find what works for you. I'd recommend it, especially to those with oily skin. I bought a bigger tube in the UK at a local pharmacy for £4something

Pros:

clears up spots really quickly

Cons:

I've noticed if you don't wash your hands after you've used it and touch coloured clothes it can take colour out!!

Don't know how i used to live without this cream, within days of using it i noticed how clear and smooth my skin looked. Quinoderm 5 cream is what i used, i found that quinoderm 10 was a little bit too strong and really dried out my skin but definitley better having dry skin than a face full of spots!!

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:

Works from day one. Skin feels smoother. I'm actually using bio-oil as a moisturiser and some Johnson's facewash with grapefruit and the results are amazing.I use it everyday in the morning and at night before sleep. I haven't had any skin irritation

Cons:

Definately needs to be used in conjunction with a moisturiser. If you have a recurring skin problem, don't stop the treatment. Your spots will return in a couple of days after you stop usage.

An amazing product. I haven't had luck with the Quinoderm facewash though. That seems harsher on the skin. You definately won't regret having this stuff in your toiletry cabinet. A dermatologist actually recommended this to me as a teenager and I thought I 'd never need it again. Lately i've had some frequent break outs which are leaving marks and recurring. So Quinoderm cream with Bio-oil are working wonders for me. Looking at everyones comments I've realised that it's actually overpriced down here.
