Makes a difference

Pros:

Cheap (ish)
Gentle for sensitive skin (like mine)
Reduces soreness and redness of spots

Cons:

I only use it before bed as it doesn't sink in very well so it looks white on the skin

Sudocrem is great for healing large, red angry spots as it tends to make them less sore. So many other spot treatements have just dried out and damaged my skin so its great that I don't need to worry about that with sudocrem.

Pros:

Very Cheap
Reduces Spot size
Reduces Redness
Help get rid of spot marks

Cons:

Quite Messy
I find that while it reduces some spots it also creates a few more spots
Tingly on face (but that only means its working)

I read the tub of Sudocrem and was surprised to find out it cures Acne. I'm going through a rough time with my skin and found that Sudocrem is effective in reducing spot size and helps get rid of spot marks! I would recommend wearing it at night and be sure to put a towel on your cushion before you sleep because it will rub off our face when your sleeping. Give it a go, whats the worst that could happen? :)

Pros:

At first it calmed down my spots and made my skin feel very soft

Cons:

It's hard to wash completely off if you apply to your whole face and it can make your face very White

Well for me it worked at the begining but after Reading previous reviews I think I will try it with clearasil aswell. Cheryl cole uses it aswell

only use a very small amount...
ive been using sudocrem on and off for many years. i use a very small amount on my problem areas when my skin is dry as most moisturisers cause me redness. in my experience it can cause some spots and under the skin lumps due to pores getting blocked but doesn't cause redness. hard to remove from face, you cant wash it off easily (almost needs to be scrubbed off). it also doesn't blend into skin, so not a product you want to wear outside the house.

A decent acne product.

Pros:

Anti-Inflammatory

Cons:

Thick
Drying

It's useful if you have a specific area that is very inflamed, but generally I find it much to thick, and quite drying with repeated use.

Pros:

Not sure

Cons:

The white sticky stuff makes it look like the pimple redness is reduced. But I'm not sure if it is.
When I put it on my face close to my nose area, my eyes burn.
Had to order it from England.

I have not used it long enough to know if it works. I used it for a week or so. No effect recognized.

Pros:

It softens sore spots,reduces redness and feels nice.I've had on/off bad acne for a while now and this product does help in the long run!

Cons:

Doesn't prevent spots but helps to limit spot reproduction and severity.Has cleared up my skin once in a while.

I use it at night time,as I realised he next morning it works better. Use an old towel otherwise it can stain pillows etc... Any excess cream in the morning just wipe off gently! FOUND BEST USE AT NIGHT TIME!Good Luck :) xx

Pros:

Does reduce the pimple, works well on awkered ones but not overall redness.
Cheap, alot in a box of sudocream,

Cons:

I only use it at night, does come off on pillow, is thick
not fast drying. So you cant apply it, leave for 5mins then go out.

Does work well on certain peoples skin, Dont expect miracles as other people have said. Although everybody isnt' the same it will react differently to people.

Pros:

It gets rid of the redness

Cons:

I found it didn't get rid of the bigger spots

I was surprised by how cheap the sudocrem was and although it didn't help calm the bigger spots down, it got rid of most of the redness which was making my acne obvious. Over all it worked well and It wouldn't hurt to give it a try! also It probably works better for some people than others so it could be the answer to your acne problems =]

went from 100 to 0

when i was 13 and i first started getting acne, sudocrem cleared my face over night- no exaggeration! at about 15 my skin was completely clear.

my acne  came back when i turned 18 and now when i try to use the cream my skin is more oily in the morning and i get break outs around the problem areas. not sure what changed?? went from loving it to loving it? i guess the individual needs to try it
