Pros:

-works very well at first
-results overnight

Cons:

-dries skin a little bit
-stops working completely after a while

At first it worked really good. You could see results overnight and the pimples would shrink to like, half their size. But after a month or so it just stopped having any effect because the skin became immune to it. I kept trying to use it and i think it made it worse after a while.

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:

-Goes on very nicely
-Didn't CAUSE me to break out
-Small tube lasts a long time, even if you use a lot each day

Cons:

-Didn't get rid of my acne scars, which I thought was the point

I have sensitive skin and this product didn't irritate me or cause any harm but it didn't really do any good either. I'd say it's worth a try if you want but I wouldn't recommend it saying it cured me.

Pros:

Burning sensation gives hope, helping stress that could possibly cause the acne initially.
Doesn't dry out skin.

Cons:

Creates more acne.
Red spots. Many of them.

I'm going to continue trying this product.

Pros:

got rid of most of my acne after about two or three days. the burning showed that it was working.

Cons:

the redness did not go away, if anything, it increased. if i used it more than twice a day, my skin actually turned purple. was a bit too strong for my skin.

this product does work in moderation and should not be used for people with sensitive skin. it may not clear up all acne, but definatly reduces them in size. the prize was a little bit to high for me. all in all it was a pretty good product

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:

it reduced pimples within ten minutes...sort of.

Cons:

it made my face burn and itch. and left a sort of burn mark on my face for a minute because of this burning.

it's an alright product if you have a few sort of noticeable/annoying pimples to get rid of. it works to the extent that if you want the pimples to come to a white head so you can pop them and still have to suffer through the red part. so unless you have some concealer or foundation and this stuff on handy, then you're gonna be lacking in the whole covering up the zit problem

Pros:

i liked the way it smelled, the packaging was really easy to use. I like the product because it was smooth on the skin and the texture.

Cons:

it didnt, "reduce the size of pimples in less than 4 hours" like it said it would. seemed to make pimples more red.

It didn't work for me, but that doesn't mean it won't work for you. I also tried it with that Clean & Clear advanced acne or whatever kit. That doesn't work for me either. Look, the bottom line is.. it doesn't work. At least not for me.
