Pros:

Helps clear and prevent acne, no strong fragrance, relatively cheap, a little goes a long way

Cons:

Drying, doesn't lather much

I was using the purpose cleansing bar with great success but then cysts and pimples started appearing again about a month after I switched to a birth control method that doesn't help my acne problem. I knew I needed something stronger again so I got the panoxyl 10% bar which I remember using when I was younger. A few rubs of the soap on a wash cloth is just enough to cover my face, arms, chest, and back. It doesn't lather much so it's hard to tell but it does go a long way. In the couple weeks I've used this bar, my acne has started to clear up noticeably and I haven't gotten any new cysts. It does dry the skin but a little lotion fixes that.

Pros:

I have been suffering from acne my whole life accutane.... Tried it all. About a week ago I was crying every day because of my skin. I had used this product before but not for years. Anyway- it is a week later and there are no new zits on my skin!!

Cons:

Drying

It will clear up your skin but you must use lotion. I think this bar alone is the best product. I have retin a but dont mix the two.

okay well so far i dont have any more new acne.. i havent used this product for a very long time and so im not really sure of its results yet, i got it..3 days ago, at night, and so yeah the first two days, i didnt really notice any difference, but because it was 10%Bp i was a little afraid it would cause dryness and irritation and thus more acne, well apparently my skin is INSANELY oily...because even when i use a lot of this, and no moisturizer.. not only is my skin NOT dry, its actually still oily...so yeah anyways um okay well i have cysts.. and quite a few of them and now my acne has..pretty much gone away i guess but i think the acne isnt whats so bad, its the red/brown marks from all my previous cysts that plague me so, but um yeah if you're skin is incredibly oily like mine this is a pretty good product, although yesterday i guess i didnt wash it off completely or something cuz it burned like in the area around my nose oh yeah and its cheap which is good i think it was like $7?

Pros:

Cheap, works.

Cons:

Brutal, and drys the skin.

It seems good at the moment, been using it a week on back acne. Apply 1-2 times a day with moisturiser.
