Pros:

i don't see major pimples developing.

Cons:

A LOT of white heads and skin very itchy.

i have only used this for 2 days and it has made my skin very itchy. i only use it only a day at night before bed. this moring(second day on this) i woke up and 6 white head developed on my chin. my doctor prescribed this to me. i really don't want to use it anymore but i have to follow what my doctor says. the price tag for this was around $40 but i only had to pay $4 cause insurance covers the rest.

Pros:

-once you put it on in the evening, when you wake up in the morning your skin is clearer and the imples are smaller

Cons:

-pimples swell up more during the day
-acne does not go away
-dries up your skin, and DOES NOT WORK.

It doesnt work. Period. Especially for people who have moderate-severe acne. (like me).

Pros:

none

Cons:

didn't clear up my acne at all, it made it worse, i ended up with zits in parts of my face that never had them before

i do not recommend this product, and unfortunatly my doctor doesn't seem to agree with me and wont prescribe me anything else. i would recommend dove facial cleaning cloths. they work a thousand times better than the gel and are much more gentle on the skin

Cons:

Gave me:
-redness
-hives
-rash
-itchiness
-burning
-puffiness

The first time I used it it burned, and the next day the side of my face was itchy. About a week later the rash and redness and itchiness is still here. I have not seen any positive changes in my skin, because it has only been a week and a half. Around my lips and the side of my face are puffy, have hives and are EXTREMELY itchy. I have cystic pimples on my chin, which haven't gone away.

Pros:

What pros can there be? Look at all the cons below:

Cons:

- causes redness and dryness
- temporary cure
- bleaches clothes

There are far better and cheaper products on the market. The redness and dryness issue should make everybody back away from the product. Redness is what we're trying to abate here! If you have severe acne, go to a derm, get them to prescribe you minocycline. If that doesn't work, then just do the accutane. At least then you will be "cured." Pro Active works better then this stuff!
