Pros:

It works!

Cons:

It drys out skin

I`ve tried dozens of other products and none have gotten rid of my acne completely. My acne is almost completely gone. If you use this product with an oil-free moisturizer, you`re skin will be perfect!

Pros:

It works, it gets rid of pimples, redness is gone and my face is not as oily as it normally is. I've used proactive for yrs and it doesn't compare to this

Cons:

I stopped for after a month and the pimples, redness etc came back. It bleaches my pillow cases sometimes my face feels a bit sticky

It works, don't keep switching between products. It may not be good for sensitive skin, my girlfriend had one pimple and she used it...oohh bad idea. So normal to oily skin I'da recommend, sensitive skin, I would think again

Pros:

I have had problematic skin over the past several months and over the counter treatments have done nothing to clear it up. This product has given me results so noticeable within ten days that I am not sure if I need to use it further. It's great.

Cons:

After reading other reviews of the product, I have to agree: your skin does worsen before it gets better. For me, that lasted only a couple of days, and I continued to use the product whilst I slept, and the redness/dryness is now gone.

I can't speak for people whose acne is prolonged and severe, but for those of us with sporadic flare-ups of relatively light severity, this product is absolutely worthwhile. I've noticed a lot of complaints as to the price of Clindoxyl, and I find that a little strange. Here we all are, buying Proactive kits for $70, over the counter zit gel for $8, or Clinique/Kiehl's/Oil of Olay sets for up to $50 that do virtually nothing to alleviate the problem. I consider $40 or below for something that ACTUALLY works to be a price well worth paying. Also, definitely moisturize in the day or your skin will get dry and itchy.

Pros:

this product is CRAZY. I love it. It works so well. I've been using different stuff for so long and this is the only thing that works consistently.

Cons:

A little bit expensive, but worth it.

BUY it, straight up.

Pros:

Clears up back acne fast! Cheap since covered by health insurance:)

Cons:

your body gets used to it after a while

Works but not a good long term solution
February 23, 2009

Pros:

- clears me up
- health insurance covers it so it costs nothing
- nice spot treatment or all-over when breaking out

Cons:

- drying
- texture is on the gooey side
- must use frequently to see results

more pros than cons overall. wish the texture was nicer and didnt give a white-ish paste look so i'd be inclined to use it during the day with make-up. clears me up without costing tons of money. happy overall. should probably use it on a regular basis to keep the breakouts on the downlow

Pros:

Clears up zits
Goes on clear
Affordable (I got healthy insurance)

Cons:

A bit over drying
Clumps up with moisturizer

Get it if you got insurance. If you can't afford it, go for Dan's BP Gel =)

Pros:

It really works, and makes my face feel smooth

Cons:

My face gets itchy after applying, and after about 5 days it started to get red

It does work, but on some people it takes a little longer. id watch if you have sensitive skin it might not be the best idea.
