Made my skin smooth and acne free

Bafem01 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

Excellent Product
I have a pilonidal cyst, and I do NOT want to have the surgeon carve a huge hole in my rear end. I think it's because of the cyst that I get really bad acne breakouts on my butt. I buy ClearZit from [link removed], and it really works. I'm embarrased to talk about the huge zits I get on my rear end, but I like this product so much, I'm writing this review. I also occassionaly get big zits on my nose, too, and I'm 60 years old. Lucky me. You can feel this product working when you apply it. I have very sensitive skin, but I've never had any problems with rashes or reactions. This is a relatively inexpensive product that works very well. I always have some in my medicine cabinet.

LOVE
Salicylic acid has never really worked for my face but as soon as i saw this and started using is as a spot treatment it works like magic it dries up those horribly red pimples that hurt so bad 10/10 would recommend.

How long did it take the benzoyl peroxide to completely clear the acne?
February 7, 2015
Love it!
I've had pretty bad acne for the entirety of my teenage years. A few months ago, I came across Clear Zit at Dollar General, and thought, "Hey, why not?". Within two days, my face was clearer than it had been in years. TWO. DAYS. I was in shock. Now, I swear by it. The only downside is that it causes the skin under my eyes to swell for a few hours after use, but now the days where it swells are few and far between. I highly recommend this product, definitely worth the $1.50 I spent on it!

Finally
Proactive has benzoyl peroxide in it....that's y it bleached my sheets and towels...proactive also worked wonders for me. I stopped using it because the billing was always screwed up they would charge me extra sending bills in the mail. It's been 2 years hunting for the perfect skin care regime trying new things...and nothing has worked like this clear zit cream. I have super oily shiny skin, and this has perfected my skin into a matte appearance in just two nights and two days. Yes it does dry out the skin, but it's perfect becUse that's the skin that you need to exfoliate off anyway. It also dries up acne scars that I've had for years....now all I have to do is put on a great moisturizer or oil...and I'm super happy, burns like crazy wether you put a lot or a little on..but so do chemical peels...so it's safe.

A product that saved my life
I am an older women with adult acne. I would not even take pictures. I tried all the big name products and none of them worked for me. I have battle with this adult acne for seven years now. I went into a dollar store and decided to try Dr. Sheffield Clear Zit Acne Cream. One reason was because the box reminded me of the old ways of the south any way i tried it and within a couple of days i got results three weeks later i"m ready to take pictures again. I and my husband will be taking our first picture together. I just wanted to thank you for giving me life back giving me my smile back. Great product.

Amazing
I love this product! I had been using proactiv and it was working but it was drying out my skin. (Not good!) So I switched to this product and it really works! The only down side is the burning sensation. If you need acne gone fast this is great! My acne was better after my first use!

Seriously a miracle!

Pros:

Works great, FAST!
Dries out pimples very quickly.
So cheap.

Cons:

Dryness is good and bad, quite irritating, but very effective.

This product is the best thing that's ever happened to me. I was so skeptical, since I bought it for literally a dollar on sale at Dollar General. But, it's only a dollar, so why not? I've always been apprehensive about benzoyl peroxide treatments because of my sensitive skin, and this one having 10%, I almost didn't even want to put it on my face. Boy, am I glad I did. I've suffered from mild to severe acne over the past seven years, trying everything from prescription, to natural, and to nothing. I use it with Johnson and Johnson Purpose gentle cleanser, a hypoallergenic, soap free cleanser that I can almost swear by. At first, I didn't experience any dryness or redness. I do now, but I really like the burning dryness. It makes me feel like I'm really killing the pimples. If you do experience dryness, even if it itches or burns, DON'T PUT MOISTURIZER ON IT YET. Let it dry out your pimples over night, and then use an extremely moisturizing lotion the next morning. After just one day, the redness and size of the pimples went down tremendously. After two days, it's just a small scab. It is the best product for people who are just ready to give up. I've even put it on a cyst, and it shrunk up to a small white head in just four days. It does not prevent the pimples, but it does kill the ones already present.

it works . . : )

Pros:

cheap
it really works
results in about 3-4 days after applying it

Cons:

itches

I bought this product a few months ago && I am still using it to this day. The first time , it really itched && I tried my hardest not to scratch it. After a few days , I noticed that my acne went away. Now , it still itches , but I know it's worth it because it really works for me. This does work for me && I will continue using it : )

Pros:

This stuff is amazing! I have moderate acne. I get blackheads and cysts. I used ProActiv for a few years. It worked very well for a while, but then it stopped working after a few years. I've been searching for another acne remedy. I saw this at my dollar general and thought what the heck. I've used it for two days and ALL of my zits are cleared, and I haven't had another zit pop up! I don't find it over drying or oily.

Cons:

None!

Get this stuff.
