Pros:

It helps... Obviously there's no cure. can't afford accutane so I buy this.

Cons:

Its not the cure. But better than anything else I've wasted money on.

Try it. If you actually have acne.

Pros:

None

Cons:

My face is so itchy! My skin has turned red and blotchy, worse than it was before. It also made the skin around my eyes very dry and tight. I had to buy some eye gel to soothe the dryness. It was actually kind of painful.

Maybe this works for some people, but I don't think this is the one for me. Much too strong for my sensitive skin.

GOOD GOD, STRONG
This should not be your daily acne therapy, but in a desperate pinch, it can be a minor miracle for a few days.

Pros:

Very strong.
Starts working within the first 5 uses.
Keeps skin fairly clear.
Affordable.

Cons:

Intense, expect drying.
Can bleach clothes, towels, etc.

Please buy this product if you haven't tried benzoyl peroxide at a 10% concentration before. This product has helped clear up my skin so much, about 90%! I didnt think any cleanser would really make a difference, but this one does. I have tried tens of products that all suck. Now i use cetaphil to take off my makeup and then use this to kill acne and it has been a great system for me so far. I have really oily skin so the drying isnt bad at all, if you dont have an oil problem invest in a good moisturizer before you try this product. Good luck! There is hope!

Pros:

My 16 year old son likes it because he can use it in the shower. It's not time consuming, just part of his daily routine.

Cons:

It's very drying, but that's easily remedied with Cetaphil moisturizer. It takes a couple of weeks to really notice the difference, so you have to be patient.

We've spent hundreds, maybe more than $1000 on prescription medications with little success. Panoxyl is a blessing for my son. His face is much clearer and he's much happier. I, on the other hand, have to keep telling the girls, "sorry, he already has a girlfriend." :-)

Pros:

clears up all acne and pimples and keeps it clear

Cons:

a little drying

its a really good product for people who have acne and salylic acid doesnt work for them. for the people who say it really dries them out, try using vitmain e oil on afteryou wash your face. once you put that on, ALL the dryness is gone!! and vitamin e oil is really good for your skin becuase it will fade your scars

Pros:

Made the acne on my back, shoulders, and chest smaller and smoother after only a week of use.

Cons:

Makes sunburn a whole lot worse, I also developed a rash on my hand which I believe is from this but I am not totally sure.

So far i've noticed my back getting kinda clearer. Don't use day before going to the beach or tanning, gave me sunburn even after using SPF 60.
