Pros:

Cleared my acne a little

Cons:

Made my skin red and kinda hard.

Burns a little.

Clears acne but then makes it red at the same time.

While I was using it the first week I felt a little burn but that was to be expected but then my face got really red and then hard. So I stopped using it and then after the redness was gone the acne under the redness was gone. So basically this product made me look a little bad for a while but then made me look better then before. Only use it if your willing to feel the burn and look a little red.

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:

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.

Pros:

Helps reduce pimple size and future breakouts.

Cons:

Starts to lose effectiveness, redness occurs where you apply it, makes pimples smaller but still have little flat red spots.

Helps, eventually starts to not work as well.

Pros:

Helped clear my face up in 2 weeks.

Cons:

drying, bleaches cloth and burns a bit when I add a moisturizer or makeup over it.

So far it has been worth dealing with all the cons. I put duac on in the mornings, take menocyline as an oral medication and use tazorac on my face at night. My acne had gotten really bad the last few months and I had to go back to my dermatologist. I get some cystic acne and I have tiny barely visible pimples all over most of my face. I haven't gotten any new large pimples or cystic acne in about a week. I only have a few marks left on my face from a week ago. I do still have some of the tiny pimples, I'm hoping those will be the next to go. I think the duac is really combating most of my acne.

Pros:

Helps sometimes; might help for people with light acne, like a few pimples here and there.

Cons:

Doesn't help all that well, just sometimes. My acne is like a rollercoaster. Nothing works. I use this during the day, and azalex 20% cream at night.

Screw this, and screw the dermatologist.

Pros:

It really works, removes all acne on my face and the occasional pimple on upper neck. in most cases a wee bit of dryness will happen and its a simple fix with, water, or for the radicals, moisturizer.

Cons:

TAKES TIME. for the first week i didn't notice any difference then gradually and slowly i started to notice that it was all going away, but another thing is the annoying price! and it will STAIN THE HELL OUT OF YOUR CLOTHS

great product. its does what label claims it will do. it practically destroyed a $60 jacket of mine so wasn't so happy about that my face really itched while applying it so i rubbed face against shoulder while wearing the jacket. :D anyways its good product im 15 and a male and worked wonders for me

Pros:

Completely cleared up my daughter's skin pretty fast, probably within a couple weeks. Her skin was back to being as beautiful as it was when she was little. She was 13 when she tried this product.

Cons:

After 8 months of using this product her skin began breaking out in big, red bumps.

This product only plugs up the pores which in turn causes the big, red bumps eventually. The skin must be able to breathe and be exfoliated.
