Pros:

it seems to be workign well. it took about a month to see real improvement. it's pretty cheap for me with insurance, only $10. it is drying but use cetaphil moisturizer and you'll be fine. also be sure to use a mild cleanser.

Cons:

drying, bleaches fabric, takes a while to work. after 1 month still not totally clear, but MUCH better!

try it. if you have isurance it'll be as cheap as any over the counter and it's def better than those. it comes in a huge bottle too, so i think it'll last for a long time! i really like it and am planning on sticking with it.

Pros:

It seems to work for other people!

Cons:

For me, my skin is just too sensitive :( I used a very tiny bit (less than half a finger tip) on my skin on the first night, by the next evening my skin had bubbled and blistered up and is red, raw and very painful.

If you have sensitive skin I'd advise doing a patch test behind your ear first. I paid £7.40 standard prescription charge so it wasn't too expensive at least.

Pros:

Haven't experienced vary many pro's with this product

Cons:

Only results are that my face is oily constantly.

Only been using for 2 weeks. Trying to keep hope alive. Been suffering with acne for 10 yrs. I use triaz wipe morning & nite; benzaclin in the morning & tazorac @ nite. Maybe expecting results to soon considering my skins condition. Anyone else experience this issue. My face is super oily day and night. My doc said he wanted to dry skin out because of oiliness but has only gotten worse the oil that is can't tell if acne drying up bc of oil.

Pros:

It works and i have had acne for 13 years and its the first thing that is drying out my spots and getting rid of them. I only ever got spots at night but this prevents me from getting spots so I now wake up and no new spots have appeared :) :)

Cons:

I couldnt care less about a bit of dry sign, thats what moisturiser is for.

I LOVE IT!!

Pros:

works quickly and clears skin with out the worry of acne returning (unless you stop using it)

Cons:

dries out skin, but that doesn't last for a long time, dries out lips, but chap stick helps that, or i use a product called carmex on my lips that really helps.

works great and results are worth the price, trust me, i have tried many different home remedy's, toothpaste, tea-tree oil, and different brands of different products, none have given me such a fantastic result, i have recommended it to all my friends with acne, so if you have struggled with acne for years like i did, go to your doctor and ask him for this product, because it works

Pros:

It got rid of acne in a timely manner. My acne's almost 100% gone with an occasional (mild) breakout.

Cons:

Dries out my skin but I'm fine with the application of a daily moisturizer. Bleaches really easily- keep clear of clothes, bedspread, etc.

Really works and KEEPS working. It is so strong and my acne has been maintained. Once you start using it, be sure to keep using it (daily). I got free samples from my doctor and insurance covered part of the cost so it was inexpensive for me, but for some it could be a little pricey.

Pros:

gel, clears acne well at first, works great overnight, easy to wash off

Cons:

expensive, starts to work less over time, smells nasty

Get it but only for moderate acne and don't expect it to work forever.

Pros:

Works excellent, I'm satisfied with how my face looks, sure, not every single pimple/zit is gone, but it's not terrible. Sometimes it even seems to do a little work overnight =) Also it comes in a cool pump, well, at least mine does.

Cons:

Depending on the time of the year, I guess during winter my face will get a little dry from it, but I think my face has gotten use to it.

Works fantastic, I highly recommend BenzaClin. Get it!!!
