Pros:

Clears up really really quickly and gets rid of excess oil

Cons:

Dries it out a little too much, but that goes away within a couple of days of continued use, makes skin itchy for about a week

It's a good product, well worth the initial pain and grief

Pros:

-It works to some extent
-Dry's Clear
-Doesn't Smell

Cons:

-Drys the skin badly
-Painfully slow results
-Can get in your bangs accidentally

My doctor prescribed this the first time i visited him. It seemed to have very good results at the start. After a week the results slowed down drastically. It is still working but at a unimaginably slow rate and my face at this rate will not be clear in the next four months. I was also taking tetracycline while using this and using a sensitive soap bar. I would not recommend this because it works slow and there are far more effective products your doctor could prescribe too you.

Pros:

Response to reviewer with sheet and towel damage. I feel for you. Whenever I use something bleachy, I throw a white towel over my pillow (and luckily all my towels are white so I can bleach them when I wash). Clearly your linens are costly, so..

Cons:

this may not work, but you should try to dye them back to the original color. You will have to use HOT water and let them soak awhile, but you may save them! Such a pity. I have many a shirt collar with bleachy marks on it.

Have not used the product by the way, just heard of it, but from the looks of it all posters are in Canada. I use Clindamycin which must be similar (but mine in an alcohol-based liquid that is applied through an applicator all over), it works quite well, but sounds like Clindoxy would be a great spot treatment.

Pros:

FLATTENS PIMPLES, DRYS THEM OUT!

Cons:

ITCHES WHEN APPLIED AND WHEN WASHED OFF FACE ALSO ITCHES, STILL GET BRAKOUTS, SKIN FEELS DRY AND LOOKS DRY.

AFTER JUST ONE NIGHT OF USING THIS PRODUCT ABOUT 3 PEOPLE THOUGHT THAT MY SKIN LOOKED BETTER. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS PRODUCT WAS THE REASON BECAUSE I GOT ABOUT 8 SHOTS OF COTIZONE IN THE FACE, SO IT MITE B THE CLINDOXYL OR IT COULD BE THE COTIZONE BUT MY FACE HAS SHOWN LITTLE INPROVEMENT BUT STILL HAS A LONG WAY TO GO

Pros:

clears up skin relatively fast, no burning sensations or dry skin unlike other topical acne medications, evens out skin complexion, reduces excess sebum, also gets rid of scars

Cons:

i find it a little bit inconvenient that i have to wash it off

Ever since I started getting acne 5 years ago, I have basically tried every acne medication available. Including acutane, which actually left me with permanent liver damage, SWEET. However back to the point, clindoxyl is the best of all acne medications that I have used. It has never failed me, and my skin has never been in a better condition than it currently is.

Pros:

it completely dryed out all my pimples in one week.Works really fast!

Cons:

Really dried my skin completely, it feels extremely tight and painful to smile/eat, and skin started to peel non uniformly, so there are some dark old skin patches and some new skin.

Try it out! But see how sensitive your skin is!

Pros:

Works well and removes redness. Breakouts are not as visible as before. It's good for protecting your entire face or for treating individual zits.

Cons:

Doesn't completely prevent zits. I find that the first day after putting it on a new zit will make it bigger, before it gets smaller the next day. Though that isn't a huge problem.

I've used this for a while and have seen a noticable decrease in the acne. I used to have the worst acne in school and now I definately don't. It works great.
