Pros:

can smooth out skin and decrease spots a bit, maybe.

Cons:

The first night that i used this product my skin was really really itchy and sore. I woke up in the morning, my mum said that my skin had improved a bit, but was red. second day OUCH! My skin was severly dry, red and painful, i was in tears with pain

PLEEEEEASE DO NOT USE THIS IF YOU HAVE SENSITIVE SKIN - YOU WILL REGRET IT!!! p.s it cost me nothing because of the NHS.

Pros:

Short term wonder. Clears up acne, skin is not oily or irritated.

Cons:

Toxic. Chemical damage to skin over time; skin becomes raw and discolored, destroys acid mantle protecting the skin from infection; antibiotic and BP absorb into body and can poison organs and beneficial bacteria, leading to systemic yeast infection

Probably better to deal with root causes of acne now instead of dealing with them plus additional, scarier health problems caused by Benzaclin later on when it stops working, which eventually it does. It stopped working for me after three years and for the friend of mine who was on it and we both got really bad acne after stopping, skin that was raw and unhealthy, and had systemic yeast infections.

Pros:

Definitely helps to dry out acne and pretty affordable

Cons:

drys out skin quite a bit so a moisturizer is needed for problem areas

I would recommend duac for spot treatment so don't over apply or dryness will defiantly be an issue. I have oily skin and this stuff is somehow capable of drying it out. I've been using the it for over two years and it's worked better than everything else i have tried, and believe me... i've been through my fair share of acne product nightmares

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:

starts improving fast, easy to apply not time consuming, acne gradually goes away if consisten

Cons:

pealing in certian areas as well as burning ( almost sun burnt) dry all over but not to bad with some moisturizer

its a good product if you stick with it while using it consistently however i find it will not remove 100% of my hormonal acne but has still cleared it up considerably and is constantly getting better

Pros:

cleared up 95% of acne in a month, skin not oily anymore, don't have to wash face an extra time each day anymore due to oiliness, wear less makeup, more confident about my face, school insurance covered all costs

Cons:

extremely peeling dry skin first two weeks, then it's okay. skin is still dry, but much easier to fix with lotion, redness weeks 2-3

absolutely give this a shot, it was my miracle cure for acne
