Pros:

Saw changes within the first week of use.

Cons:

Dryness, slight burning with application.

I have been commented many times in relations to my skin. Luckily I don't have bad skin, but in accordance to going through puberty recently I've had the occasional zits and blackheads. I use this along with solodyn and a retin-a, and in one week my face cleared up. It's been six months and I haven't had acne since! I've used tons of creams, prescriptions, expensive medications, cheap over the counter drugs........and nothing has worked but this. It dries your skin but it's nothing a good moisturiser can't fix. If you have mild to moderate acne, this is the product for you.

Pros:

Works very fast and makes my skin feel less oily.

Cons:

Like any other topical acne cream a little peeling and redness but nothing to worry about

Duac works very well but like all topical creams it's a quick fix that gives you clear skin for about 5 months after you stop using it. I don't like the thought of taking Isotane so topical creams and doxycycline is what I usaually take. Once off presricption stuff I just use Clearasil.

Pros:

Clears up acne completely with rare, if any, pimples every now and then. Makes skin shine-free all day.

Cons:

VERY drying. Makes skin all peely and burny. Lotion is a must or people will stare at you oddly.
Also it can be quite pricy.

Get it.! When you first put it on, within a few minutes, you will notice the swelling of pimples going down. But for it to really soak in and start working, it sometimes takes up to a month or more if you have bad acne like I do. But after that it's great. And you don't have to constantly re-apply makeup, it keeps you nice and shine-free.

Pros:

It completely works within 2 weeks, saw improvement in days. Perfectly clear

Cons:

During Hot months it should be kept cool. I belive it shouldn't get over 65-70 degrees.
Also, I'm 28 and shouldn't be using benzoyl because it prematurely ages skin.

Clear Skin. I love how it works

Pros:

Works so quickly and keeps your skin clear!! Saw results within a couple of days.

Cons:

Stains EVERYTHING! I use this on my face and chest and I can't use colored pillowcases at night or wear bright colored clothes unless I wash the cream completely off. It also dries up your skin quite a bit.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND trying this product, the only real annoying thing for me is that it has stained a lot of my pillowcases and shirts. It was definitely worth it though because before I tried this, my face looked terrible- I would wake up almost daily with new pimples. My face is now almost completely clear. I've tried Retin-A, AcneFree, Proactive, and multiple prescription pills with no success and this has worked wonders. I LOVE IT!!! If you try this cream though, make sure you have insurance or it'll cost you around $450 out of pocket. With my health insurance, it only costs $15.

Pros:

I saw results in only a few days! It was great!

Cons:

Dried out my skin.

It was just what I needed! I had been using ProActiv before for more than a year or so and it was not working, I had horrible acne on my forehead and when I was introduced to Benzaclin, it all went away! But the dryness is sort of a problem since I've been using it for more than a year, but I guess since my skin is originally very sensitive it doesn't matter for how long I've used it. To get rid of the dryness, I use Cetaphil and it makes my skin smooth. An occasional zit forms, but they're very small and I can get rid of them overnight! And I've been using the 150g bottle and it's perfect! It lasts exactly a year for me.

Pros:

Clears up skin fairly fast.

Cons:

Skin gets really dry, flaky and red. Bleaches fabric.

It's decent, unless you have sensitive skin. I think my skin is too sensitive to use it.
