Pros:

it helps with light to medarate acne. sometimes it can even make your skin glow. while on it you rarely get large pimples only a couple small ones

Cons:

doen't fully clear skin, bleaches clothes, runs out quickly, makes your skin very red and sometimes burns

If you have light acne and you just wan to zap away those couple zits it mostly works. You have to be patient and very consistent however if you want clearer looking skin its worth it. If you have a health plan, you should be able to afford it. Just try it out, can't permanently damage you.

A little dry, but nothing a good moisturizer can't handle.

Def give it a try!

Pros:

-Clears up skin
-Gets rid of blackheads
-Minimal Irritation

Cons:

-Expensive!
-Takes a long time to see results

All in all this product is worth it. It does the typical Benzoyl Peroxide bleaching, and drying out business, but its managable. I have been using it for a year now and have always been pleased with the results. It does take some time before anything noticiable has occured, but that is another typical feature of acne products. I used to pay $30 for a 30g tube, which for a university student isn't something one can afford every month. So when I went to the pharmacy to refill it after a good paycheque I found out the price increased to $60 for a 45g tube. No thanks. However the tube does last for quite a bit. Sometimes I could go three months without having to go for a refill! I would recommend this product to anyone who has tried EVERYTHING possible. It does work, but it does take time! The results are fantastic!

Pros:

It worked for a little bit, not extremely well mind you, but it did something

Cons:

Stopped working after a while
Temporary fix, therefore it all comes back the minute you stop using it
As with all BP products, bleached my clothes 8-)

Waste of money. As soon as you stop, the buttons return. Furthermore, as long as you're using it, leave your favourite t-shirts in your closet.

Pros:

Dries up pimples really fast and the benzol peroxide acts as a bleach so it lightens hyperpigmentation from the acne. It also peels the dead skin to reveal newer fresher skin

Cons:

It is very drying and i wonder how it will affect my skin in the long run.

This treats acen well, but not sure what will happen if you stop using it. Noone wants to have to use a gel everyday to keep acne at bay

Pros:

- Has helped me a lot with cyst-like pimples I get time to time

Cons:

- Makes your skin super dry (particulary bad if you happen to have naturally very dry skin like me)
- Bleaches clothes and linen
- Is (at least here) quite expensive

It's hard to say wheather this is worth using... It does help but also has some side effects.

Pros:

Nothing. Well, at least it didn't get worse...

Cons:

Nearly 3 weeks in, no difference whatsoever. Difficult to use in everyday life. Leaves an irritating film on the skin. Dries it out as well.

Fail.

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.
