Pros:

I've tried everything out there apart from laser surgery, but this gel actually works! gets straight to work!

Cons:

can leave flakey skin, and some redness but moisteuriser can help sort that.

although it works well, i still cant find something to stop them permanently. highly recommended product!

Pros:

Vanishes your acne and not your face. :-)

Cons:

Dries skin

if you have acne so your skin's oily. So, which one is better: oily with acne or dry with clear skin? I recommend that you use Panoxyl 10%. It's the best product that i ever used to vanish acne. You can use moisturizers after applying and it still works very well. Other derma products recommended by my doctor did not vanish my acne but instead, it vanished my face.... :-)

Pros:

it really works i love it! you just have to make sure to be consistent and use it every day.

Cons:

i payed 20 bucks for it! because here you cant get the 10% at a store it has to be prescribed..for some reason.
but it does dry out the skin, just like everyone said...use a vitamin a & e based moisturizer and ur good to go!

BUY it people!

Pros:

Clears your skin like nobody's business!

Cons:

A bit drying.
One tube won't last long

Very good. Everyone says that 2% and 5% work as well as 10%, but I've tried 2 and 5 and neither of them work as well as this one. It may be something to do with the denatured alcohol in this Panoxyl product, which is an antibacterial as well as BP. But anyway, the cream cleared my skin up- seriously, cleared it right up! (never thought I'd see myself write that!) It is a bit drying at first, but your skin gets use to it, as long as you use a good moisturiser. I recommend using quite a lot (about the same as Dan recommends) every night and just a little bit in the morning to see you through the day. Oh, and PS- Be extremely careful with clothes and hair- it bleaches it. Make sure you wash your hands after using it and don't get it in your eyebrows! (my brows turned blond when I first used it!) But I think a bit of temporary blondness is worth clear skin, don't you?

when i first started using it my skin was oily and i hated it and i got a lot of zits. After a few weeks i noticed a difference, it doesn't get rid of all of them but they are not noticable and it made me feel a lot more confident. I would recommend giving it ago, there's no harm in trying it. And for a week or so my skin was flaky and red but it goes away fast.

Pros:

I have always have acne problem around my jaw area and recently I started getting some on my forehead as well. The acne gel dries up my acne after only 1 or 2 uses!

Cons:

Really dry and flaky skin. After maybe 2 days, the skin on my jaw becomes really really dry and itchy. New acne starts popping up along my jaw. Mind you I live in Hong Kong which is famous for it's humidity and still my skin is extremely dry now....

The gel really does work but if you have sensitive skin, stay away from it. Also, you should start with PanOxnyl 5% first. I didn't and the 10% is just too strong for my sensitive skin....

Pros:

my acne is pretty much gone and my skin loos good. tone and pore size alot better

Cons:

drying.

i love it! it is def drying but i only use it at night and then wash my face with water in the morning and then apply moistuizer. have used everything, i mean everything! inculding proactive. and this is by far the best. ony thing is will say about one review is the one with the coco butter, coco butter is not Noncomedogenic. which means that it will clog pores, which is a shame becuase it works so well on dark marks, so i dont use that anymore. but anyways, i love it because i have honestly spent hundreds trying to find a solution and a little 5.99 bar from walmart does it!

Pros:

Cleared pimples within the 2nd day of use.

Cons:

Dryness and redness may occur. It smells weird.

I am going to be 20 and I have very oily/combination skin. I have used everything in the CVS pharmacy. I found this product in the clearance section at Wal-Mart. I was skeptical, but I am sold. It does dry out my skin, but that's okay. I use this product at night only. And In the morning but I recommend to apply a light moisturizer after use in the morning. Make sure it's UVA/UVB SPF.

Pros:

effective in treating your pimples

Cons:

dries your skin but you can use moisturizers to lessen the discomfort

this product is effective in drying your pimples and getting rid of your acne but you should apply small amounts only when you use this product because it really dries your skin

Pros:

Clears face very quickly

Cons:

Over dries face

I love it.If I get a sudden blemish,I can treat it faster than when using other products.As for the dryness, I just use a coca butter stick and it brings back the needed moisture. This product works much faster than others like ProActive.
