Pros:

gets rid of acne
makes skin glow

Cons:

Everything else I used made my skin extremely flaky and dry. After one month of usage, my acne went from moderate to COMPLETELY gone. I will never use anything else but this.

Pros:

Great Price
Gentle
helps with break outs
No Parabens
No Sls

Cons:

Does smell a bit
need to change between seasons (like blemish prone in summer, combo or dry for winter)

I used Spectro Jel September last year with the moisturizer, then after I finished about 5 months later, I decided to try different products... I BROKE OUT (I'm almost 40), even with Cetaphil. Needless to say I just bought Spectro Jel with a bonus Cream pack at Walmart (very very good price). I tired EVERYTHING from the very expensive name brands, to organic and Spectro Jel is always a return favourite.

Pros:

- helps to clear acne, works with other acne medication (birth control and or retin-A etc..), soft, gel type

Cons:

- does not exfoliate, (but you can get a good scrub to remove the dead skin cells)

For sensitive and or red prone skin, it works. I've had the best results with this cleanser, and anything else I've tried, I've always come back to spectro jel. To get results you have to use it twice a day, and be patient.Overall, it's highly recommended by dermatologist and is one of the best products out there for acne. Hope it helps!

Pros:

-It seems to be the best product on the market that does not require a prescription
-It is affordable
-It is available at almost every drug store in Canada

Cons:

None

I am in Calgary, AB Canada, probably one of the driest places on earth! My skin was pretty destroyed in my youth with scarring and inflammation of acne. Nothing worked -- I tried Tetracyclene, Minocyclene <sp?>, herbal treatments, Accutane... nothing worked. As I get older (24 now), I am not sure weather it is my aging skin, my hormones calming down, or what, but this cleanser seems to do really well! It doesn't dry out my skin like others do. Hands down this is my favourite facial cleanser thus far!!

Pros:

Works amazingly well

Cons:

A little elbow grease required-30 seconds to be exact. But hey, elbow grease is better than facial grease, right? LOL

I've used this product to treat my acne-prone, sensitive, combination skin for many years. Every now and then I am tempted to try some other (usually more expensive and glamourous product) and every time I end up running back to Spectrojel when my face breaks out. I'm done with fad products- I'm sticking to what works. Used with a BP cream and a gentle, oil free moisturizer my skin stays clear and problem free. I also mix it with baking soda to exfoliate twice a week.

After using Proactiv for a few months with no results I switched to Spectro Jel and wow! What a difference. It makes my skin feel clean for the entire day and does not dry out my skin!
