Pros:

Immediately cleared me up. I have moderate/severe adult acne, and in just 2 days I was clearing up and seeing major differences

Cons:

Very expensive, dry skin, I just used it in my breakout zone alone and it didn't dry me out too bad.

Totally necessary expense and the results are great. I feel like a respectable adult again.

Pros:

free as i get it on the NHS, maybe helps get rid of inflamed acne slightly quicker

Cons:

didn't really improve my acne at all, really dries out skin

got this when my acne was pretty bad, and my GP promised great things, but all in all the cream failed to deliver. used it consistently for 2 months, but everytime it got rid of a spot, a new big one was ready to replace it. as a spot treatment guess it was okay, but didn't do anything in the long run

Pros:

This stuff works ok. It prevents most of my severe breakouts, and I;v noticed a big improvement from where my skin was before.

Cons:

It hasn't completely cleared my skin. Although I'm not innundated with acne and most of my zits aren't filled with that nasty puss, i still break out frequntly. It alo really irritates my skin and causes it turn red, which ust makes my acne worse.

I'm sure this will work for some people. It did a great job getting rid of a huge portion of my zits, but again, I still have a substantial amount of acne. Give a shot. I just might have to try somethng new in th near future.

Cons:

didn't clear skin at all
drying
didn't get rid of the larger zits that i most wanted to get rid of

its not worth the try, it didn't work, barely even noticed a change at all. im only glad i got free samples so i didn't have to pay for the big thing.

Pros:

It was easy to use and not very expensive. It lasted a long time.

Cons:

Really dry, red skin. Breakouts got worse. It left scars all over my forehead.

If you already have dry skin, you probably shouldn't use it. It stopped my cystic acne when I used it but it left me with ugly red scars. My doctor said they would go away after 9 months, but its been longer then that. Also after 6 months of use when my cystic acne stopped I stopped using duac but where the scars were, more acne started coming. Haven't been able to clear up since.

Pros:

Cleared up cystic acne and smaller problem areas within days of the first time I used. If you have oily skin, the dryness is almost good at first!

Cons:

Extremely dry skin and peeling. For me that lasted a few weeks and then my skin started to normalize again (but once most of my acne cleared up I started using it as a spot treatment).

I think that the dry skin and peeling are worth it...especially if you have suffered from oily skin your whole life.
