Pros:

cheap
smells good
**WORKS**

Cons:

none

This stuff works!! I used ACNE.ORG regimen for a year and had no problems. All of a sudden it wasnt working anymore. A friend of mine offered me the Clean & Clear to try and I am SO thankful she did. Its been 30 days I have not had a single break out and my face isnt dry like it was with the Benzoyl Peroxide.My skin looks great !! DEFINETLY worth a try.It probably wont work on everyone but for me it was a lifesaver!!!!

Pros:

-Eventually cleared up most of my pimples.

Cons:

-Slightly burns

I've been using this spot treatment on & off for a long time, whenever I get bad breakouts. It usually does clear up the pimples, but it takes at least a few days. & even after the pimple is gone, there is still a little red scar, but that's always what my pimples do =/ lol. I do recommend this product, it seems to work well for a lot of people, & works fairly well for me, which is why I continue to turn to it when my breakouts come knockin! lol

Pros:

helped after the first few times

Cons:

after a while made spots BIGGER.

I used this for a while, at first very happy with the results because it seemed to clear the zit. But after a while, it actually made the spot bigger and more red.

Pros:

Reduces redness of pimples
Reduces size of pimples
Has actually worked for me

Cons:

Burns slightly

I love this product. I use it twice a day with Clean & Clear Advantage 3-in-1 Foaming Acne Wash. I first wash with the Acne Wash, then I spot treat with this. I broke out a lot as a teenager, it cleared up on its own, then shortly after I turned 21 it started again. I have used numerous products that just dried out my skin and didn't work (some even made it worse) but the Clean & Clear Advantage system really works. After the first day I used it, my pimples were noticeably smaller, and not nearly as noticeable. Since then, my acne has been slowly going away and my skin has never felt smoother! I love this stuff and would definitely recommend it to anyone who has moderate acne and oily skin if nothing else has worked for you.

Pros:

shrinks the size of pimples
makes the pimple less red
cheap
simple
works after 8 hours

Cons:

burns a tiny bit but not enough to burn your face off
dries skin a little bit but not very noticeable

This product works. It might not work very well on little tiny zits all over one's face, but it works for those single huge round pimples. Everyone who says it burn their face off doesn't read the directions. "APPLY A THIN LAYER" if you apply a thin layer like the directions say, it won't turn your face red. Also, if you have acne all over your face, *DONT use it* ... its a spot treatment it only works for little areas where huge pimples break out. I will say this. You HAVE to wash your face before you apply this. If you dont have a cleaned face before you apply it, youll make it worse. For me I had this huge red pimple last night, I washed my face and applied some, this morning its half the size and not even red.

Pros:

It clears up my occasional adult acne breakouts and it seems to prevent them from coming back as often. I only have to use a small amount about 2 to 3 times a day.

Cons:

It does tingle sometimes but it's tolerable. It also seem to sometimes make them turn a dark red after the first day or so of using it, but it then clears them away soon after.

It gets the job done! Most of the over-the-counter products I buy for acne takes forever to work or not even work at all. I'm glad I decided to purchase this.

Love this product!
When I have a pimple this is my go to product! I've used up 3 tubes of this and will continue buying it because it's brilliant! I can use this in the morning because it dries in a couple of minutes and make up can go right on top of it because it's translucent, I also use this at night. Once I put the gel on I can see in a couple of hours the swelling and redness has definitely decreased, depending on the size of the pimple depends on how long it can take to fully disappear, this product contains salicylic acid, which is known to help clear up acne and this definitely works for me, it dries up the spot and then clears it. All in all, I love it! Just wish it came in a bigger tube.

spot treatment wonder!!

Pros:

cheap
gets rid of all redness very quickly, within minutes
doesn't have a powerful smell and can be covered with makeup after it has dried

Cons:

may cause some dryness
if your skin is really sensitive maybe you shouldn't use it everyday

This stuff works wonders!! I have some red acne bumpy thingies with small white heads on top and this stuff made it go away over night nearly!! and after two days i had nothing left besides a few older acne marks. It does sting a VERY little bit for like 5 seconds...more like a cold sensation. love this stuff!!

Pros:

Quickly dries after applied.
No stickiness.
Light smell.
Noticeable results the next day.
Pretty cheap compared to prescription medications that leave your face dry, peeling, red and hurting the entire time you use it with no quick results.
Doesn't bleach your clothes!

Cons:

None!

It's a good buy! I'd recommend this to everyone with light to moderate acne. I've tried Terminator 10 spot treatment and it bleached the towel I dried my hands off with, my pillow cases and the sleeves of my night shirts. Clena and Clear is so much better and also it doesn't smell too chemically.
