Pros:

Can be used continuously, unlike other acne treatments or the contraceptive pills which help with skin.
Has none of the side effects of other treatments such as mood swings or DVT, and works just as well.
Gets rid of redness and pimples.
Very cheap and easy to get hold of.
It is easy to add into a before bed and after morning shower routine.

Cons:

Must use every day to avoid even dryer skin than before.

I have been using Sudocrem for around a month and a half to two months, and the redness of my face has subsided massively, with very rare pimples. It works absolutely fabulously, but my skin has seemed to have developed a dependency on it. If I have forgotten to put it on or take my make up off the night before then I pay the price the next day with very sore, red skin that resembles eczema. I do not put on as much as others seem to - I put on a light application before bed and after my morning shower before I put my make up on and this seems to work very well. You MUST make sure you have clean hands before you put it on your face, otherwise you're just rubbing dirt into your pores! I would 100% recommend this to someone who would remember to apply regularly. When I'm not being forgetful it works an absolute treat!

Pros:

Smell ok, works on back acne like nothing else, cheap!!

Cons:

Hard to put on, hands feel a little dry afterwards

This is by far the BEST product I have tried for my backne!! I have suffered for years after going on tetracyclines that made me break out even more. Have basically tried every remedy in the world (teatree, vinegar, clinique regimen, vitamin pills, doctor ´s prescriptions etc) but this creme that i stumbled upon in my sisters bathroom has performed miracles. I do not get any spots these days, and i can see the red marks from old spots fading. Such a great product, amd such a great price. My only concern is that it may be tested on animals, but my next planned step involved vitamin-a treatments that also would have undergone this procedure......

Pros:

* Conditions the skin
* Reduces the redness of acne
* Helps sooth the stressed skin

Cons:

* Didn't really help my light Eczma

Doing a Film Studies project and have to cake my face with various makeup products for a 2 minute movie me and my group will be filming. This product has helped prepare my skin prior to applying the makeup (use over night as a face mask then the following day go wild with makeup). I slap it all over my face like a face mask and go to bed (i cover my eyes with the stuff also and sometimes my lips before applying lipbalm). It really does soften the skin and bring it back to a healthy state ^_^ 5 *stars* :D

All things bright&BEAUTIFUL.
About three weeks ago i woke up with loads, i mean LOADS of spots and i couldnt understand why as i was free from acne for over three months. I didnt understand what to do and became very frustrated, my mum then reminded me we had a tub of sudocreme three days ago. That same night i applied sudocreme overnight and the next morning i saw a COMPLETE difference; the spots were minimised, the sore spots were cooled down. Its been three days and my skin is practically CLEAR. PLEASE i urge you to get this product as i know how painfully and shameful it feels to walk around trying to cover up your skin. P.s i saw someone on here asking does your skin colour have an affect on how effective this product can be. No i dont believe so as i am Black british and it has worked for many caucasian people also. I hope this helped: BUY, BUY, BUY!

Pros:

I have tried everything including: clearsil,clean snd clear,oxy,neutrogena,proactive you name it including several antibiotics which all had side effects. This worked the best. I use it everynight at bedtime and noticed my acne diminshing quick without dryness. I use this with st ives apricot scrub and aveeno toner my skin had never been so healthy! Choose a daily sunscreen to apply durind day that wont cause acne.

Its awesome just try it! Make sure you apply it every night as it will stop acne from forming snd heal any spots you have. It will save you like it did with me.

Only for healing
I found when using this cream that it was only good for already popped spots or spots that were healing, because I found the the spot fighting/antoseptic properties in this cream was not strong enough to actually dry out and get rid of the spot itself. But the zinc oxide contained in the ingredients actually helped really get rid of the redness of the spot and heal the wound faster than if I had just left it. So I highly recommend to those of you that have severe redness and scars/scabs that need to be healed quickly.

Sudocrem is amazing!
People say it only reduces the redness yes it does but it also helps your body and skin fight it off so with the right diet which includes carrots as they kill the toxins producing spots and drinking a lot of water will help you with acne a lot , just remember about your hygiene too as dirt and sweat make a perfect place for acne on your skin. Definetly try it out :)

REMEMBER TO WASH AND DRY FACE BEFORE APPLICATION & AFTER WIPING OFF
I don't have the worst acne but everyday I had red marks/scars/spots on my face and my skin was generally awful and would never properly clear up. I used a thin layer of sudocrem over night on my forehead, washing with warm water and drying before applying. I woke up, wiped it off with a tissue, again washed my face with warm water and saw an unreal difference, I've tried creams/lotions/face washes recommended by doctors and nothing came close to this.
