Pros:

-smells nice
-did not make my skin dry
-you only need a little to cover your face

Cons:

-BROKE ME OUT!
-made my skin really oily
-stings a bit

I really wanted to like this. It seems like it could work for some people. But on my skin, it broke me out like crazy. I have mild acne, and after 2 weeks of using this I had red bumps all over my forehead and chin area. They are just little red bumps that can't be popped and acne medicine doesnt seem to affect them. It really sucks, and they are SOO hard to cover up!

Pros:

Helped heal problem zits.

Cons:

Considerable sting.
Horrible scar left over.

Would leave large, dark gray scars behind for a few months after use. I was always pleased to find the blemishes would disappear rather quick, but the scar left over was difficult to cover up and felt like the Spot Treatment had not been worth the trouble.

Pros:

Visually noticable within a few days

Cons:

Stingy, but its benzoyl Peroxide. its nothing new

bottom line is every dumbass who wrote a review doesnt understand acne products. ITS NOT SUPPOSED TO WORK WITHIN A FEW DAYS!!!! this makes you break out, then CLEARS IT. for f**ks sake, it makes them worse to clear them. Its not even technically worse, its just hidden ones under your skin that you cant see yet, your BOUND to get them. this works OVER TIME you cant give it a day. if your face turns red, STOP USING SO MUCH.

Pros:

-works really well when you feel a blemish coming on.
-I would recommend using before blemish actually breaks out

Cons:

-burns as soon as you treat on skin
-I treat a blemish with it all during the day and then leave some on over night and I wake up with red burn marks almost. Size of redness depends if I rubbed it in the blemish.
-smells awful -leaves a dry ski

Personally, I don't feel its a really bad product to get BUT I would only recommend it if you feel a blemish coming on in a certain area. I would not put it on already broken skin. I find it creates scars on the face. It leaves a lot of dry skin in the area, and almost a shine on the skin which does not cover well with makeup.

Pros:

MIRACLE PRODUCT. I started using this treatment 3 days ago and its already helped get rid of my current acne, I also put it on my acne scars on my right cheek and it's almost clear.

Cons:

Dries out your skin, but this side effect is nothing compared to what it does.

Best spot treatment I've ever found, and I've had acne for about 3 yrs.

Pros:

i works really good

Cons:

dries out skin,

it works good on existing pimples and even better on the ones you feel coming, the bad thing is depending on you skin type it might irritate your skin, on my case it does but just a little. reduce pimple size within hours!

Pros:

Cleared up a pimple here and there

Cons:

BURNING, REDNESS, PEELING. It looked like I splashed high concentrated acid all over my face.

It didn't work for me at all! It was way too harsh on my skin. I bought it at Wal-Mart so when they saw my face, they immediately refunded my money!
