Pros:

helps dry the acne
you notice a difference overnight (pimples appear reduced)

Cons:

makes your skin really dry (even though i washed my hands after applying it made all my fingers peel)

It helps but i wouldnt use again it made my skin really dry and tight you have to use a thick moisturiser to get moisture back into your skin then i found i would get pimples again because i was using too much moisturiser I put no to recommending because there were too many cons to pros but everyones different some people have had great sucess with it

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....

Didn't work
Was excited to try this after all the great reviews. I had moderate acne and sadly it didn't touch it. Different things work for different people I suppose, not for me though ☹️

Pros:

Did stop SOME new spots forming

Cons:

*Does not clear skin completely, new spots still forming, seems to stop working after a while
* can leave your skin really dry

I have been using for 1 month now, I've had clear skin for maybe 7 days which was great but 5 big spots have just appeared on chin and around my mouth over then weekend and they are bad, they are the horrible big cyst like red ones which no amount of make up can cover! It hasnt worked for me which is sad, maybe I need to use it abit longer but I have seen no vast improvement, guess its my hormones and might need to go back on the pill

Pros:

cheap
easy to use
good for short term

Cons:

doesn't work in long term
leaves skin feeling tight
dry skin
burns
bleaches sheets and clothing

This worked great for the first few weeks even though it did burn. However, after three months it stopped working.
