Pros:

it does clear up acne fast!

Cons:

HOWEVER it does dry up skin... also, ive been using it for 6 months and stopped using it for just 3 weeks and ALL MY ACNE CAME BACK RIGHT AWAy all over my forehead and cheeks it was horrible! so use it consistently or else it WILL RETURN.

use it. it works. But do not stop unless you have a top-notch cleanser or some othe rproduct that will for sure prevent acne because your acne WILL return whether you believe this or not and it will come back even WORST. so USE IT, but don't stop !

Pros:

Clears up acne well

Cons:

Need to refrigerate always or it goes bad; expensive; causes redness of face; need to use consistently

I have used this product off and on for a year. The first 6 months, I used it consistently and it took about 2 months to really clear my skin out (that is just how long it takes for new skin to replace old skin) but the results were great the next 4 months and the acne was a distance memory. Then I lost my job, didn't have insurance, and decided to not spend $200 on the medication. The acne reappeared in about a month. I am finally back on it and know what to expect. The other frustrating thing is that you cannot miss even a day because in about 2-3 weeks, you'll see the pimple appear as punishment for that missed day. Also has to be refrigerated, despite what the pharmacist says, or it will go bad within 1-2 months and you may as well begin from scratch.

Pros:

I have been using BenzaClin for abut a year. I had HORRIBLE acne on my forehead and cheeks. Using BenzaClin twice a day made my acne disappear... BUT...

Cons:

BUT JUST RECENTLY IT HAS STOPPED WORKING FOR ME AND MY ACNE ON MY CHEEKS HAS COME BACK! I wash my face every morning and apply BenzaClin and i do the same before bed. But all the sudden my acne has just come back no matter how much BenzaClin i put on

Congrats to everyone that BenzaClin has worked for, but buyer BEWARE: your face may become immune to it after a while and your acne could come back. Oh and i forget to say that BenzaClin has bleached all of my hand towels.

Pros:

Strong acne medication. Really helped to prevent and remove acne on my face. Also improved the acne on my back. Doesn't have to be used everyday to achieve great results on the face,

Cons:

Has to be lefty in the fridge. Causes some dryness and peeling. Makes no difference to black heads/white heads.

Good product and not too expensive. However, it doesn't really seem to do much to black heads/white heads. It does seem to prevent acne and treat it really well on the face. However, my back only changed a bit, not really dramatically.

Pros:

Worked Fast.

Cons:

drys out skin

It works if you have little acne and doesn't work for me because I put it on my zits and I got a even bigger zit on the bottom of my chin.

Pros:

My acne started to fade fairly quickly and clear up. My confidence started to come back.

Cons:

After a few moths of usage, certain pimples would go away and come back a few weeks later. That is still happening, but my acne looks much better. My face also started to dry out.

Certain acne spots would fade for a while and then start to come back and then fade away again, like a routine. The pimple may of gone away and came back again, but whenever it came back it was not as big or as severe as it was before. My face may have dried out when using BenzaClin but it was easily solved by using moisturizer. Moisturizer should be applied right after putting on the product, or the morning after using the product (if using BenzaClin only at night.).

Pros:

I starts to work very quickly. Within 2 to 3 days, I could see a difference with using it twice daily, but after 6-7 days it was even better. Smooth skin and no pimples.

Cons:

Doesn't help lighten dark marks, but it does reduce your pores and rapaidly heals pimples and prevents them so this is NOT REALLY a con.

I would definately recommend this to acne pron individuals who have tried other products or not. This is a gentle acne treatment with immediate results. AWESOME STUFF!!!!!!

Pros:

I have tried all types of different medicines but this one worked very quickly it didnt work instintly but after about two month my face was prob the best it was ever been in my life.

Cons:

Right now i have been using this for a long time. It seems to be wearing off. It dosent work like it used to. Basically all my acne is back. It also dries out your face very bad.

It works very good. But it seems after you use it for a while it starts to wear off and dosent work as well..

Pros:

Easy to apply, clears up acne quickly and effectively, prevents breakouts

Cons:

Dries skin, stopped working after a period of time

I've been using this product for about 5 years, and when I first got it, it worked wonders. It cleared up my acne really well and kept it that way for a long while. Eventually though, the drying and skin tightening effects of the product stopped occurring, and acne began to reappear. Yet when I stopped using this product for a month hiatus, my breakouts got even worse. Benzaclin's effectiveness started strong and gradually faded, but overall prevented major breakouts.
