Pros:

-Dries/clears up acne breakouts within a couple of days
-Very reasonably priced

Cons:

Skin dryness in applied areas

I use a generic cetaphil-type moisturizer before I apply this cream. I have not noticed any burning or redness, but still had some drying. But that's a price I'm willing to pay, having to moisturize more, to have my acne under control.

MADE MY FACE SO RED!!!
I had a cluster of pimples on my forehead and cheek, so I applied some product there. Soon my face was burning and I knew something was wrong, so I rushed to the bathroom and washed it off. My face was beet red and burning!! I tried to wash it off with soap and and a facial cleanser a couple times to no avail. I'm hoping the redness goes away tommorrow ^_^

Next day the rednesss has died down, not very noticeable now. If you have sensitive skin, do NOT try this.

From acne to rashes.
I used this cream a long time ago and it worked so I kept it in my cabinet. This week i used it as spot treatment for some really bad acne I was experiencing. Now the acne is gone but I have huge red itchy welts all over my face. I look gross. It's lasted 3 days already, no sign of getting better soon. Idk how to treat this, I couldn't reach an operator at their business phone number. I'll try again tomorrow and update you all.

Honestly this product really worked for me. This is how it works on my skin, I will apply it for 3-4 days then I would stop. During this period my pimples dry out, then I would start applying moisturizing cream. Honestly, for another period of lets say 3-4 months my face really feels smooth no breakouts during this period because the product actually kills the bacterias causing pimples. Then after some period I might start experiencing breakouts again, and once I notice that again all I need to do is repeat the cycle again and my skin feels good again. But the major challenge I have with the product is that its no longer available in most stores here in Nigeria. And if you know how I can get it kindly mail me (removed). Thanks

Pros:

works fast
cheap

Cons:

burns (but you get used to it and it only lasts a couple minutes)
slightly drying (just remember to moisturize!)

I really struggled with self confidence with having acne and tried so many things one day, my mom brought it home and said might as well try it.... it worked great after only ONE USE!! i use it twice a day, morning and night, after washing my face. definitely worth the try!! THANK YOU CLEARZIT!!!!!

Pros:

-fast-acting
-not over-drying
-great for everyday maintenance

Cons:

-burns initially, but that does go away
-I've only been able to find it at Dollar General

I've had bad acne since for about eight or nine years. My dermatologist put me on every over the counter and prescription acne medication available, and nothing worked. Eventually i was put on accutane and my acne became lighter, but i still had several bumps. I found this at dollar general about a year ago and said, hey what the heck. now i can't live without this stuff. Any major zits i have are gone in about a day or two, and it keeps the small ones away.

Pros:

-It actually works.
-It dries up and reduces the size of acne overnight.
-Its a very inexpensive product. They always say the cheap stuff never works but this does wonders.

Cons:

While there are some cons to ClearZit to me the Pros far outweigh the Cons. :)
-My face gets really dry & starts to peel.
-It burns, but for only 5 minutes or less.

If you struggle with acne like I do where you have tried just about everything and nothing works then I really believe this is the product for you. I tried ClearZit years ago and it worked then, when I started breaking out badly I knew where to turn. ClearZit is a must have, must buy product. Get it & you will love it!

Pros:

IT WORKS,..I have had skin problems for over 40 years! They are almost gone! It took a few months for my skin to go from severe to almost clear. I love it. I used to hate to look into a mirror. I now daily use a 10 power makeup mirror to help me control those hated blackheads and swollen lumps under my skin. I truly believe that in a few more months, I will have clear skin for the FIRST time in over 40 years! YEA!!

Cons:

You have to pay a price. It may cause pealing of skin. Thats GREAT to allow ClearZit to get deeper into those darn infected pores. If you have ever had a date tell you had bad your skin looked, then there are no cons if this stuff helps.

It may be hard to find, but the net will help you find it. If you hate how you look, this stuff will really help. Maybe even make you zits/blackheads go away. At least it will control them. The best thing I have ever used,..I'm 62! Acme has ruined my self-esteem for over 40 years. Now I have found something that really works!!!! I'm not afraid to look in a mirror when I'm out in public. Don't know if I may need to consider using a sun screen. I just don't care,..my skin is looking BETTER.

Worst skin product I have ever used.
This product was terrible. It didn't even take my pimples away, all it did was burn and dry out my skin to the point where i lookED LIKE A BOX OF INSTANT MASHED POTATOES. If you have sensitive skin, do your face a favor and never use this.
