Pros:

Very effective in drying up pimples, cysts, and zaps all of the redness out of your skin. Perfect for overnight pimple removal. Also very, very cheap.

Cons:

Will cause a slight burning irritation and will dry out skin. Does not have a very pleasurable smell.

People don't use the product very much due to the fact that the burning sensation is just too painful. This is because they apply WAY TOO MUCH. All you need is three little dabs for both sides of your face, chin and nose. Four if acne is on forehead. Also make sure you rub the product in so you can barely see any white left over from the applicant. Also, for guys, best results is to apply right after you shave, perferably a razor, so the BP is straight to the pimples and blemishes. Shaving cream will also help with the moisturizer so your skin won't feel so irritated. Be advised there could be a chance in a rare occurance that the BP won't help any or minimal due to your skin type. For 95% of people this product should dramatically treat your acne. Also this is a product that you can rely on if you have an important day the next day. Picture day, job interview, etc.

Pros:

Dries up zits fast, cleared my blackheads on my nose that I've had for at least 10 years. I use it mostly for spot treatment and once or twice a week on my nose. Also very cheap, found it at the discount store.

Cons:

The high concentration is drying. It does make the area peel or look irritated a few days after use. I cut it with moisturizer to about half and half and it cuts way down on the dryness. Using a cotton swab for application precision also cuts down on

It's worth it to me to put up with the cons to get the quick and consistent results. And the price is right.

Pros:

I put it on before bed and when I wake up my bumps are dried out. No questions asked. They have not disappeared, no, but they are no longer red and they are much smaller in size.

Cons:

It does burn when you put it on. But that just means it's working for me. And the bumps are dried out as is the skin around the bump. But honestly, I would rather have a little flakiness than the bump.

It works. No joke. Buy a moisturizer or put some lotion on to clear up the dry areas. It isn't severe. The burning is not throbbing pain either. It is an unpleasant tingling. But beauty has its price, right? Plus it is way cheap. I did not expect it to work, but I was wrong.

I use this with the Clean & Clear Acne Spot Treatment & it's great! This would dry up my skin in applied areas. But the clean & clear wouldnt. Also, since ClearZit had Benzoyl Peroxide & the Clean & Clear had Salicyic Acid, the two worked amazingly! Try it!
