Pros:

Easy to apply, dries quickly, one can last a long time.

Cons:

Stings a bit if used in the morning after shaving.

I use evoclin in the mornings, along with Differin gel at night. This combination has been, bar none, the best I have ever used. I used to experience cystic acne, mainly along the jaw line and temples. I have been almost 100% acne free since I have started using evoclin. I agree with others - what works for one person may not work for another. But I swear by evoclin.

Pros:

Dries quickly, works incredibly well. Gets rid of big pimples on my scalp and around my mouth, as well as on my back.

Cons:

Mostly the price. Also, it prevents inflammation, but not pore clogging, so I found that I had some small blackheads, which I had never had before.

Absolutely the best and only solution that worked for me.

Pros:

dries fast

Cons:

Pros:

So far I have been using this product for about over a week, and it has been clearing up my acne causing smoother skin and less breakouts.

Cons:

I don't kno if i am applying it correctly and I dont kno how long it is supposed to take to actually effectively change my skin.

Give it a shot if you have insurance

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:

It is easily absorbed and lasts long.

Cons:

Not good, dries out skin, and irritates it! MADE IT WORSE!

It has actually made my face worse, and it also dried it up and made my lips peel. My friend also found it NOT to work. Don't waste your time and money.

Pros:

Can be used to maintain a clearup.

Cons:

This is not heavy artillery. Overpriced. 45 w/m insurance, 150-175 without for 100g.

I have a foliculitus-like chronic infection in the scalp. Its simple - raised white headed legions that form on my scalp - not really a big deal but the spread and make for a bumpy surface and are irritating, this condition is exacerated by getting my haircut. I needed systemic antibiotics to reliably clean up the infection, but it would recur easily, despite extreme hygeine, using hibiclens, AB soap, etc. This stuff can keep this chronic condition at bay after a systemic course of something like Keflex. The price needs to be cut.

Pros:

none

Cons:

does not work

I have been using evoclin for about a month now and my skin has actually gotten worse... I hate it. I figured that I would just keep on taking it and eventually it would work, but i'm going to stop because this product sucks...
January 30, 2007

Pros:

Light, not greasy. Easy to apply and didnt dry my skin out.

Cons:

Even though its "fragrance free" it still smells to me.

Been using for for little over a month and its pretty good so far. It really made my skin smooth and helped A LOT with the blackheads. If your insurance doesnt cover it, its a lot of money. I like that it doesnt make my skin shiny after im done washing. However it hasnt worked in my body acne. So far its pretty good.
