Evens skin tone and makes your skin feel clean

This product works amazing I was looking for a product for my face that wood reduce my pores, make zits clear up, and discoloration of my acne scars, ever since taking this from day one i have noticed my skin having an amazing result even after the first use. Good with price too.

Pros:

-Worked unbelievably quick, cleared up acne substantially, easy to apply, affordable (with health plan), not overdrying (for me), no initial breakout (again, for me).

Cons:

Comes in a pretty small tube, but you apply it sparingly anyways so no big deal really. Does have a 4 month expiry date, which is kind of short i suppose (and probably explains the small size of the tube).

After having relatively clear skin for the first 20 years of my life, i suddenly broke out about a year ago, primarily on my forehead and back. Initially i tried your basic Neutrogena SA wash with little success. I then moved on to other brands (still using SA), added exfoliants, gentle cleansers, fish oil, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, you name it. I even drastically cut my dairy intake (instead drinking soy milk) and stopped taking supplements (for weightlifting), multivitamins, etc. I should also mention that i tried a BP cleanser for approximately one month with little success. Fed up, i finally went to see a Dr. (not a derm, my city has none). He took one look at me and prescribed me Clindoxyl and tretracyline (oral antibiotic). My skin started clearing up after 3 days and is now probably 90% improved after only 1 week. I cleanse with teraseptic (which is pretty harsh, fyi) twice a day then apply clindoxyl, that and taking the tetracyline twice a day as well.

Pros:

didnt cost anything insuranceeeeeee!:D

Cons:

i dunno didnt see much of a difference yet

I just got this product from the doctor yesterday and I hope it works. She told me not to use it on my whol entire face the first night. She said to put the cream on just my chin and work my way each night towards covering my whole face. So I don't think you're supposed to use the cream on your whole face at once cause it could aggrevate ur skin and make it red. Peace!

Pros:

- Cleared up infection
- Dramatically reduced the appearance of cystic acne on cheek

Cons:

- Cheek feels a bit stiff after using it
- Cheek is itchy, not sure if it is from the medication

I had been using Proactiv prior to this and it only worsened the acne by drying out my skin. I received samples from my family physician, so I didn't have to pay anything. She did tell me this was the "#1 selling acne cream", lol. This product is the best topical cream I have used. I noticed an immediate difference the next morning. I have tried Melaleuca's 'Zap It' cream which only worsened my acne. The pros of clindoxyl outweigh the cons by far.

Cons:

drying (but what's worse: acne or dry skin?)

if you have not tried, this try it now! I've used clindoxyl gel for over 6 months now, I stopped for 2 months and my acne flared back up, I restarted using clindoxyl gel yesterday. Overnight it started to clear up my cystic acne, along with my all whiteheads.
