Pros:

None

Cons:

Dried out my skin. Didn't clear spots at all.

Rubbish.
July 28, 2008

Pros:

I can see immediate result by the next day. But I do not recommend for long term use.

Cons:

This is why, it is very drying when use for more than a week and if I follow Dan's dosage, my face will look "burned" which red brown dried skin. I have to use much lesser but it will be less efficient if I use lesser.

I do not recommend for long term use. If there is a better choice, do not use this.

Pros:

I use panoxyl acnegel 2.5 for a month now. So far it works wonders on my skin. It clears up my whitehead and blackhead. Apply before bed and wake up with smooth skin.

Cons:

Make skin so itchy. Need to apply rosehip oil and moisturizer again and again throughout the day.

Great product to replace neotregena bp 2.5 as i couldn't find it anywhere at local drugstore.

Pros:

Within the first few uses, i saw a difference. Everyone noticed how well by face was clearing up - even though it did look sunburnt!

Cons:

Goes red, dry and flakey but calms down within weeks if you use moisturizer

My face was red and very dry - but only because i used it twice a day. Because it did this to my skin i stoped using it for a few days and my spots came back so i decided to use it again only this time i applied it once a day like it says on the instructions lol. If you do stop using this product your spots come back which is why its recommended you use it for over 3 months and use a really good moisturizer such as palmers cocoa butter which also has vitimin E in it (: now my skin is really good.

Pros:

it does relieve acne in just 2-3 days.. it's so effective for teens like me..

Cons:

-It makes your skin sooooo flaky(But, its good for you if you have a very good moisturizer to civer it up)..

The flaking effect takes a few days( several fo some cases) But, no need to worry cause it reduces skin's oiliness and it's KILLING acne in a good way =P

Pros:

There is none

Cons:

Does not absorb into skin but leaves a mask ... can look like as if you are wearing make-up (not the done thing being male)
OMG IT WILL MAKE YOUR FACE LOOK LIKE A TOMATO

Was only using this product for 2 days - after 8 weeks on Brevoxyl - and my face was ruined. LOOKED LIKE RED PAINT WAS THROWN ON MY FACE. Red, red, red, Red, red, red,Red, red, red,Red, red, red,Red, red, red,Red, red, red ... u get the picture, its red. obviously i had a bad reaction to it and must be due to my skin type. So if you have normal to oily or combination ... pale, sensitive, and generally from the UK (white-british) avoid like the plague. Unless you like having a red face, wire in ...

Pros:

Worked on some parts of the face
Easily available if you're in the UK

Cons:

There is something in this product other than BP that is horrendous for the skin

Bad quality product

Difficult to apply as very thick and rubbing into skin will cause more irritation

Started the regimen just over 9 weeks ago using pan oxyl 2.5 gel. It cleared up my forehead and temples, nose and lower cheeks mostly but caused huge inflamed pustules on my upper cheeks either side of the nostrils. This continued for weeks along with a few every two weeks or so on my lower cheeks. I never felt that spots had stopped forming until I bought Dan's BP, yes it costs me three times more in postage and customs charges than in the US, but I do not care because the difference is HUGE. No more redness around eyes, no more spots even starting to form, not one! Just waiting now for previous enflamed ones on upper cheeks to calm down. No more flakiness (like a white beard before) Skin feels much smoother and less irritated, less tight and Dan's BP is like a moisturiser compared to this. Pan Oxyl is crap, utter crap, and they should be ashamed of themselves because I tried this first when I was 14 and gave up because of the irritation. If only I had tried Dan's, then maybe I would have been clear for the last 7 years!! SLS should not be allowed in facial application products and neither should the other dodgy chemicals. If you use this and your skin doesn't clear up, then it probably isn't the BP that is the problem but something else. Buy Dan's from the outset, and you should reap the rewards of the regimen far sooner and more effectively. I wish he had pushed his own products more. His honesty in not trying to make money is admirable, but I wish I had known the superiority of his products sooner. AHA+ is great as well, my skin responded perfectly to both his BP and AHA+ although I know that everyone is different.

Pros:

This is a good cream. It cleared my skin up and removed the black spots from my recently popped pimples. My skin looks ah-mazing! And i used it yesterday too. my first time ever. =)

Cons:

It makes you skin ah-little itchy. May cause a little dryness. You have to use moisturizer such as Neutrogena Moisturizer.

It works ah-mazingly good! =)
