Pros:

This product works very fast with clear results after first 1-2days. This product is worth every penny!

Cons:

First time usage my resort in "tingling" light burning sensation but this is just the cream drying out your face, feels odd for the first time. Price, if not on prescription, is quite hefty (£20-70cl) but its worth it.

Highly recommend, great product. Gets rid of acne, fast, efficient results. Price quite hefty but i promise you it is worth it. It is probably best to be prescribed to you by a doctor firstly: Because you can get it free on presciption and secondly: Because you may be allergic or your skin my have a reaction to it which te doctor can warn to you about before you take it. Overall if you have any form of acne --GO FOR IT solves hormonal spots aswell A MUST BUY!

Pros:

I have had moderate to severe acne, it was on my face and back, and i have noticed a huge differerance, and before that i have used many other products, and this one by far is the best!

Cons:

you could be allergic to benzoyl peroxide like my sister, and have a reaction to the medication!

without it my face wouldn't have been as it is today. Now I feel more confident

Pros:

Clears skin up FAST, scaring fades/evens out skin tone .. ive tried everything from drugstores and products the doctor has given me, and this is the best thing thats worked!!

Cons:

dries out skin alot, do not stay in the song to long wear spf, skin will burn easy, bleaches clothes,pillowcases, so make sure you but your shirt on after it dries or lay down after it dries.

Works very good, just takes time just like every acne product, i say give it a try!! just make sure you use a good Moisturizer..

Pros:

Clears pimples quick ...great for spot treatment

Cons:

can make skin very dry

Alot of the people on this particular review have also been prescribed differin or tazorac to use in conjunction with duac. I feel like the people who are giving duac horrible reviews are the ones who are on differin or tazorac, which when first using, an initial horriblee breakout stage can happen and often does happen ...it happened to me. After continuous use of differin/tazorac and duac, the skin will slowly start to clear up and stay clear. Duac itself is an awesome product, but when used with differin/tazorac, many believe duac causes breakouts. It doesnt. The tazorac or differin does. =) keep using it the acne should get better

Pros:

Skin looked great for first month.

Cons:

Greatly worsened acne after one month.

I had to stop using the product after a month b/c my entire face was red, irritated and bumpy. I am now using ProActiv although my face isn't totally cleared up as of yet. I'm 27 and this is making me insane. I've never had skin like this in my life!

Pros:

Works fast, no fragrance, not very harsh on skin, GREAT RESULTS! STOP WASTING MONEY ON OTC soaps/cleansers/wipes/creams until you try this!!!

Cons:

A little pricey -- but you can get a $15 coupon from [link removed], and can use it every time you go to get your Rx filled!

I tried so many OTC soaps, creams, cleansers, wipes, etc. (even tea, alcohol, & apple cider vinegar!), but nothing cleared out the persistent pimples I kept having for the last 7 years. My acne was usually focal, only in certain areas. The pimples would stay for weeks before clearing out and have left (scar-like) marks that become extremely visible if my face got red a little (when you blush or exercise). About 4 years ago I ordered ProActive, only to watch how it made my face extra-sensitive, extremely dry, and w/ no progress! It seemed like my skin was very smooth but I didn't buy it for that! I bought it to clear up my pimples!!! Used it for months (year??) -- no help. Then I finally went to a dermatologist and she prescribed Duac. I was AMAZED within the first week! WONDERFUL results! I used it every day for a month or two, then started using it occasionally when I see some pimples coming back. I'm sold on it!! I'm 22 & finally feel confident about my f

Pros:

It works very quickly and i saw the results in a few days. I use it in the morning and put a moustriser on top. Very effective and works quick and stos oilyness.

Cons:

It makes my skin feel very tight even if i put moustriser on top. It alson smells really werid like chemicals.

I love this! I have tried so many products and have had acne since i was 11 (15 now). I would suggest it for more oily skin rather than combation skin as it does dry it out alot. Use a good moustriser if possible opt for one that says hydrating.
