Pros:

Keeps pores clear,works great to control oil and is my only "mask" GREAT overnight SPOT treatment.

Cons:

will bleach hair and clothes if mask gets on them be careful.

I love this in the morning every other day- leave on for about 5 to 10 min and rinse off in shower. Kills the p.acnes all day without bleaching the clothes i wear that day.

Pros:

I am using BOTCHLAS Regime and I chose this as my facewash wich needs to include BP. Alongside using a facewash right before with SA in it. The two products are doing wonders for my skin right now. They are working. I just hope it continues.

Cons:

Slight drying of spots the next morning. But nothing a good moisturizer can't solve

I am very happy

Pros:

Using this as a cleanser works well for me and up until just now the mask has too, BUT

Cons:

as other users have stated, this product will BURN YOUR SKIN. I am sitting here with a bright red face now.

Try something else if you're looking for a mask

Pros:

This makes my skin feel smoother, I use it as a cleanser and rinse it off in the shower because it will bleach towels. Don't use if you are sensitive to benzoyl peroxide.

Cons:

Causes some redness so I use it mostly at night and only once a day. I follow it with a good moisturizer to keep it from drying the skin.

A little hard to find sometimes. I get it at Walmart but not all stores carry it. I see by some of the other reviews that some people had a bad reaction to this product and as with any new product TEST ON A SMALL AREA FIRST!!!!! Never use something new all over your face because you never know when you'll have a bad reaction and to what.

Pros:

Smells clean, you can feel it working and tingling away, easy to wash off and apply, cool 2 way use

Cons:

Left my skin red and sensitive after washing off, my chin (problem area) broke out like freakin crazy! The little pimples that were already there became huge and inflamed and tons of little bumps appeared!

It's ok for people that just want a strong mask that'll suck all the nasties from under the skin, but that often causes more breakouts until everything gets sucked out.

Pros:

Works better than any other benzoyl peroxide cream, affordable, and lasts a long time!

Cons:

face feels dry and stiff afterward - I use neutrogena oil-free or AHA moisturizer.

AMAZING! First off, for me it works excellent as a mask but not as an everyday cleanser. I found that using it every day either leaves me too dry, or my skin gets used to it and I don't see as much effectiveness. This works way better than regular benzoyl peroxide cream, and definitely better than the Proactiv one. It works better than any clay mask or other masks I have tried, and the results are pretty instant. I use it after a gentle cleanser 3-4 times a week, or every other day, and follow up with neutrogena AHA moisturizer. The days I don't use it, I just use any non-BP or Salyic Acid cleanser and follow up with neutrogena oil-free moisturizer. This is the best method I've found with over-the counter products, though I have not tried the acne.org regimen. I think it's pretty similar though...

Pros:

inexpensive, easy to dispense, two in one, no smell

Cons:

tiny scratchy beads in the cream aren't a plus, saw no improvement in acne, gels are better

it's not a BAD product but it didn't do much for me. i guess it would work okay for someone with much milder acne.
July 18, 2008

Pros:

The product work on mild acne not very severe however Im sort of in btw but Im sometimes satisfied

Cons:

once it has stopped being used you continue to break out

Good product try it
August 20, 2008

Pros:

drys out pimples

Cons:

flakes off if left on too long

I use this product as a spot treatment overnight. Does it dry out your skin...ummm yes thats the idea, right? I like it. It works as well as any other over the counter product I have used.

Pros:

the cooling effect feels good. pimples slowly dry out and disapear.

Cons:

I dont use it as a mask. I have super oily skin and still it leaves me a little dry.

its far better than any BP product, I usually use 2.5% BP but decided to try this out. This product works great.
