Pros:

Because it's foam, it's not as drying. No initial breakout. Fast results.

Cons:

Nothing miraculous, stopped working after a while, became watery after some time

After my doctor gave me samples, I decided to give it a try. It didn't cure my acne, but it did greatly improve my skin overall. I did still breakout occasionally if I was really stressed out or on my period. Another good thing was that a little bit goes a long way. A sample can (30 mL I think?) lasted me about 3 months. After about 6 months, however, my cysts were coming back so I stopped using Evoclin. Now my cystic acne has gotten so bad that I went to the dermatologist and I am about to start Ziana and oral antibiotics. I'm pretty confident, however, that Evoclin will clear up mild acne, not cystic acne.

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...

Pros:

Does not smell, absorps quickly into skin. Seems to work very well for me.

Cons:

Takes a bit to start seeing results. For me, it got worst, now it's getting better.....
Stings a bit when applied, but that doesn't last long.

It seems to be working out well. I have suffered with acne since age 17, i will 30 very soon...have tried everything on the market including acctune, which helped for a bit, but the acne returned. I will stick with using this foam....my face is so smooth aside for about 5 small bumps, which seems to be halfway gone. My skin is not that oily anymore. I am super happy with the results that I have seen so far....I hope this one's a keeper!!! :)

DRYING made my face hurt and feel tight. the stuff burned going on.

Only for people with tons of pimples (does NOTHING for blackheads) or oily skin types. Expensive.

Well as the other person said i have started to use this product since 06 its marvoulus it really us uhmm i got it today 1-27-09 and its been working great so far my acne is going to be under control. Remeber every thing takes time.

Cons:

Uhm.. depending of the kind of skin type because not every one has the same skin, really it depends on what skin you have so the product can work uhmm you will start feeling some itching but you will get use to it.

The bottom line is that its a geat product it is worth for dont waste your time trying to buy or get products that are not your type your just waste thing your moner and time come soon and get Evoclin hope it works . When you start using it people can actually see the difference and say wow what product are you using and youll feel proud of your self.

Pros:

Prior to using Evoclin foam, I had used more than half a dozen topicals with only marginal results. I was very skeptical when the derm prescribed me this medicine but I was wrong. This topical worked almost overnight for me abd has kept me clear.

Cons:

It stings a little if applied immediately after shaving, and it definitely costs a lot, $250 without insurance. I paid $65 after printing out the online rebate and the insurance got the rest.

Thia topical, though expensive, has worked extremely well for me. My skin broke out once a month on the areas I shave, and this product has completely cleared that area.

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:

I actually haven't bought the prescription yet as my insurance does not cover it.

Cons:

Does anyone know of any other perscription assistance with this product doctor says I need it but it is sooo expensive.

My acne is getting really bad and I am tired of it. But this evoclin costs up to 300 dollars. Help!
