Pros:

Clear skin in roughly 1-3 weeks with constant use.

Cons:

Dry, Red, Itch skin - Apply E45 after panoxyl and will stop in 1-2 days.

Panoxyl is good, I find it has heped my acne alot. I used to be plastered in them. But now after using panoxyl for 3 WEEKS only.. I have clear skin.. eventhough my skin is now clear, i still apply the cream as it also works in prevention.. Hope this helped :)

Pros:

-Dries up spots FAST
-Helps with blackheads and milia I find
-Excellent on just popped pimples
-Also great on large, painful inflamed pimples. (Ugh... don't you hate those?_

Cons:

-Very drying, need a good moisturizer like honey or olive oil
-Can leave skin red and flaky.
-Can bleach pillows/clothes etc.

I really like this product. I'm 15 and I've struggled with moderate acne since I was about 10. I've literally tried everything out there. I used to use 5% Benzac Ac but didn't find it helped much... My friend reccomended Panoxyl 10% to me and gave me her old tube for a trial. I find it works pretty well! It's super fast at drying up pimples. One bad thing about Panoxyl is that it can leave you with purpleish acne marks/scars.... This product hasn't yet cleared up my acne but it's certainly improved it! I've been using it for about a week now.. I'd say if you've got moderate to severe acne, give Panoxyl 10% a try! But make sure you follow it up with a good moisturizer!

Pros:

Dries out and clears acne fast!!

Cons:

Redness and flaking, definetly need a good mosituriser

This is amazing stuff!! It works so fast at clearing up spots and acne. Certainly does dry the skin so moisturiser is a must but a small price to pay to clear zits. I have tried many and never found a more effective cream. It was quite expensive here in New Zealand, around $26 for the tube. TRY THIS!!! :-)

Pros:

Good I can already see a difference, and I have only been using it in the mornings. I Might try before bed as well.

Cons:

Skin does get dry but I moisturise everyday anyway, and I do have sensitive skin but this has not affected my skin at all i.e. no burns. i;m still getting big spots but I think that's to do with the headbands I wear.

I rated it 4 because the effects are slow so far.

I am black and I was wondering if other users who are the same skin colour have different effects. I know skin colour can change things and the reviews seem to be mostly from white people (please correct if i'm wrong).

No Doubt
Alrighty, Here's the Scoop in a nutshell: 10% Benzoyl Peroxide is very drying, however effective. I will never say no to something that works. Just use a good moisturizer. However, I always recommend a 5-2.5% BP (Preferably 2.5%) because it does great work, the same actually, and no dryness. Plus you can spread it all over your face after using a SA Cleanser and apply Moisturizer and your set to be acne free! -Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash -2.5% Neutrogena BP -Aveeno Non-Comodegenic Moisturizer (or any good moisturizer) I struggle with blackheads and larger pimples and it works well!

To all those who say it stops working: It doesn't but the dryness makes it too dry to get under the skin to treat the acne. Use a moisturizer!

Hey, how long do you wait after applying the medication to put the moisturizer?

Maybe the combination with the Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash is not helping either with the dryness because it has salicyclic acid and at least on my case, is very drying to my skin so much that even gave me hyperpigmentation around my mouth.

Pros:

Works!!effective at drying the skins and preventing breakouts.

Cons:

none that i can see!

I went to Acne clinic and after refusing to buy the kit of potions offered for e170 proceeded on the first of a recommended 6 derma abrasion and face peel at e140 a go to be followed by laser!! Stuff that rip-off.I did one treatment and she explained what she was using,salayic acid,benozal peroxide and a tea tree oil to calm it all down.All readily available in the chemist at a fraction of the cost!!This creme does exactly the same as a peel and derma abrasion kits can be now be bought for e30.. Save your cash buy this creme(5%) for all over and 10% for individual spots,and a good moisturer.A dermo abrasion kit when your skin is in better shape will help buff the skin and reduce scars.Its working for me.I have mild acne so dunno how it work on more severe acne
