Pros:

Made a big difference in clearing my acne after the first time I used it.

Cons:

After the second time I used it I became severely allergic with a red rash over my entire face, very dry, itchy and bumpy. It's even under my chin and on my eyelids where I didn't put the gel. It's really horrible and I look freaky.

If you are allergic to any creams or lotions on your face, you will be allergic to this - don't use it. I am allergic to any moisturiser or sunscreen that has perfume in it, and I've had same reaction as that. It's really disappointing because I have a massive (I'm talking really huge) spot on my forehead that has practically vanished after using it only twice so I can see that it would really work, if I could use it. But now I look worse than I did last week because of this hideous rash. I have to use cortisone to get rid of it. It's a bit expensive too, cost $45 although I will get some back on my health insurance (not sure how much).

Pros:

none

Cons:

a lot

please, however bad your acne is, never use this product. its far too aggressive to your skin. even if you don't have sensitive skin don't use it. there are so many other ways to cure your acne. stay away from all those aggressive chemical creams and give your skin the time to heal.

Pros:

It bleaches skin so red marks seem less red

Cons:

Has improved acne 0%
Expensive

This stuff should work as expensive as it is. But the fact is, it hasn't yet, and I've been using it for over 3 weeks. I'll continue to use it because my doctor assures me that it will work. Ha! Yeah, just like everything else that's supposed to work. I am using it as I take doxycycline and I have seen zero improvement. Woohoo, it's fun not being able to enjoy life.

Pros:

Saw results in 3 days
Cleared skin quickly
Improved long term quality of skin so I don't have to keep using it
Doesn't dry out skin
Prescribed so it was free

Cons:

None!

I had bad skin for about 3 years so I started using Duac. It started to work immediately and the results could be seen after around 3 days. It worked quickly to get rid of my spots and it helped improve my skin quality too. I no longer use it and I only get the occasional (and very rare) spot. Other reviews say it dried out their skin but it was fine with me. Would recommend this product to anyone!
