Pros:

I am pregnant and needed something that was safe during pregnancy but effective...pregnancy acne is hormonal and I was VERY skeptical if a topical could improve my skin. I just started the product last night, and already the pimples are reduced!!

Cons:

Cost. It was 60 bucks AFTER what the insurance covered.

worth a try...if you have acne then you know, if there's a chance it can give you your confidence back, 60 bucks is a small price to pay!

Pros:

it works

Cons:

cost

Just wanted to let everyone know that the company offers a rebate on the evoclin foam. For the large bottle it is $40 or half your copay (whichever is less), this helps to make it a little more affordable. I got the first rebate from from my doctor and after that they sent a new one with each rebate check. I have been using this stuff for a few years and it is the only thing that works.

Pros:

I think it's the best thing there is, it works, not immediately, it get's worse and than starts clearing it all up!

Cons:

It burns when you first start using it, it doesn't seem to dry my face out like everyone else!

If you have bad blackheads or acne like I do on my nose, you should give this product a chance, it really works!

Pros:

easy to spread over the skin, doesnt dry my skin out, works fast and lasts all day.

Cons:

very expensive, $266.00 but my insurance covered it. it also made my skin a little tight and dried out, but nothing serious.

i use this product in the morning, on my face and on my chest acne after a benzoyl peroxide wash (benziq). then i use a salcylic acid wash at night with differin, and that keeps my face acne free and in good shape. i get some mild breakouts sometimes, but nothing severe that is any worry.

Pros:

Its very easy to use and i saw some results the first two weeks i was using it.I have a minor break out on my chin but thats about it. I believe that is a result of me not taking doxycline everyday.

Cons:

Very expensive. I spend about 91 dollars on this at the drug store. I dont understand how some people on here had paid 30 and 40? I havent seen much results in my body acne though. Maybe ill have to give that more time.

Cleared up my skin for the most part minus the minor things on my chin. Didnt clear up body acne yet, and is on the expensive side. I would say give this product a try its worth a shot. Everyone had different effects from a product. So ignore the negative remarks. It might do wonders for your skin.

Pros:

Easy to use, absorbs quickly

Cons:

Extremely greasy

I have never had breakouts so bad in my entire life. I used it for two months to no avail. The day I stopped using it my entire family noticed a major difference! It didn't work for me but there is a girl in my dorm who uses it and it seems to work for her. Oh well its worth a shot.
