Fair enough!!
Not as efficient as 10% BPO but does it job.Not over drying if used properly.Upside is the fragrance is not bad as other benzoyl peroxide creams.It will treat the spots.but takes it time.

Pros:

- works quickly to prevent pimples
- started to clear my skin within 2 weeks
- inexpensive
- prevents any new pimples from growing

Cons:

- can be very drying if not used with a good moisturizer

Really awesome when used properly. I have been using this for a few months now and i have never been so happy with my skin! start off on a tiny amount at a time to prevent extreme drying so that your skin can take to the product and so that you know if your skin can handle it. All in all a great product

Pros:

no pros

Cons:

My skin got really dry
My acne got a little worst

I started this treatement with a lot of positive thoughts but sadly it haven't done anything to my face. It just caused me a painful dryness. However ,I recommend it because as i see , this product has many fans. No product was good for me so I have started to take diane 35. I can't wait to see if it works.

Pros:

Cleared some of my pimples
Reduces redness

Cons:

Dries your skin (I recommend using Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion)
Stings at first
In the first week I got new pimples at places I usually wouldn't get (jawline, neck and back)

This has cleared my acne along with the face wash from Neutrogena (Acne Stress Control Power Cream Wash - I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT). I found that dabbing the cream onto the pimples worked best. Also, spread some on your face even if there aren't pimples in that area, because once your pimple disappears it will move somewhere else! After the cream dries I usually dab another dot onto the pimple. After that the pimple usually disappears within 2 days.

Pros:

- clears skin within 2 weeks of use
- gets rid of up coming breakouts very quickly
- prevets breakouts

Cons:

- dries put skin especially around the nose area

This is a great product i love what it has done for my skin it is clean and clear. This is great for people with moderate or light acne. Start using in very small amounts so that your skin doesnt over react

Pros:

I had moderate acne on my face and this product pretty much cleared it all. It's also very easy to apply on the skin. It is neutrally scented.

Cons:

It took more than 3 months to take real effect. During those 3 months I experienced several breakouts that did die out rather quickly. It also left my skin dry for almost a month after starting the treatment.

I would say this is an effective way of getting rid of mild to moderate acne in small areas. You should give it a try but don't expect to get instant results.

Pros:

Prevents new spots forming and quickens the fading of old ones. Quite cheap.

Cons:

Takes a while to adjust to. Smell is not very nice. Makes skin very dry and flaky - not smooth at ALL! Also, takes a while for the redness to subside making it not ideal for those of us who appreciate FAST mornings.

Good if you don't mind the side effects. Get ready to splurge on the moisturizer!!

Pros:

Works really well. Helped my oily t-zone. Cleared up my skin.

Cons:

If you forget your moisturizer, you'll be in for some trouble with the peeling.

I got this product from my mother because she gets free samples from her office (she's a pediatrician). She told me to use it for my forehead breaking out. After just a few weeks I really saw a change. Now, it's been one and half months and my skin is clear. I use this product with duac and cetaphil moisturizer. For spot treatments when I see something coming to the surface, I use the proactiv refining mask (sulfur treatment) and sleep with it on. It all really works. Do not forget to moisturize!!!!

Pros:

This is the only product that worked on my otherwise stubborn acne which i have been suffering for 15 years. I started using it along with a little amount of Retin A. Both prosucts were used on alternate days and i applied a simple moisturizer everyday. Never dried my skin out. Never experienced a break out after that. I have continued using it even on my TOTALLY CLEAR skin to prevent any breakouts.

Cons:

Makes skin red for a while but the redness goes after 10 mins of use

MUST TRY! i simply loved this product. This worked amazingly for me.
