Pros:

This is the best product ive ever used! I started getting acne at 12 years old all over my face, and and over the years have tried many different products from proactiv to several kinds of pills. Ever since my dermatologist perscribed me evoclin ive been 95% acne free.

Cons:

Yes it drys up the skin and does burn slightly but its deffinatley worth it, you know its actually working right as you apply it. It does take a few weeks to start seeing the results. And this probably would be costly without good insurance. I pay 15 bucks after using a 50 dollar rebate card.

Deffinatley worth to try has saved me alot of grief, i hope this product never goes off the market for any reason.

Pros:

cleared up cystic acne on back and chest
foam is easy to apply

Cons:

can't travel with it - bottle is too large and because it is a foam, you can't put it in a smaller bottle

I had severe cystic acne on my back and chest from stress and other causes. After using Evoclin for a month, I have not had a single breakout. I can't say enough about the effectiveness of this product. However, you must be consistent with your usage. I can immediately tell the difference if I forget for a few days. I use it every time I get out of the shower. I would recommend washing your hands off afterwards because the product can really dry out cuticles, etc. Ask your Dr. for a prescription discount card.

Pros:

Very light texture, does not leave a film on your face. Not too drying, very cheap if you have insurance and get generic. Works slowly but effectively.

Cons:

Not a miracle drug...like every other medication it takes time to see results.

I see a lot of folks complaining about symptoms that are totally avoidable. For instance, if it is drying cut down on usage. Use a light oil free moisturizer after you apply it. As with any antibiotics it is always best to take some sort of probiotic to protect your GI. See, the antibiotics kill good and bad bacteria in your gi....thus causing stomach problems like loose stools. If you take a probiotic it gives you back the good bactieria to protect against bad bacteria. I have very mild acne, with most of it being comedomes, my skin is 60% dry 40% oily. This does not dry my skin out and I use differin with it. I also ease into any new tx to give my skin time to adjust. Personally, I like this product. Will continue to use till my face decides other wise.

Pros:

product is a foam so it Absorbs quickly, definitely work wonders on my backne and and on my chest, i had really bad backne and scars and now im clear, i have one blemish

Cons:

It stings a little sometimes, my refill wasnt ready for a week once and i started breaking out a little on my chest

It stings and may be the kind of product you have to keep using to keep the acne away but its well worth it. It worked wonders on my back and chest and even though its clear i continue to use it. Its very easy to use and absorbs quick. Ask your derm for a coupon. i got this multi use coupon and get my prescription for free since i have insurance and the copay os only 6 $, if you dont have insurance it can be a little pricy though. I used this product o my face but im already using bp on my face so im scared that using both would cancel each other out in the effects. ANYWAY GREAY PRODUCT AND EASY TO USE and actually works

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.

Cons:

It will clear up your skin this product is great just give it time to work be patient.

The bottom line is that if you have acne you better go run and get it i got it because of my acne and its been working ever since. Ive tried all different types of medications for my face until i found evoclin i worked the best!. hope you like it

Pros:

Works like nothing else. I have had acne my whole life! This miracle in a can really works like nothing else. I tried to stop using it once and the acne came back. I use this once a day and it works wonders!!

Cons:

It is pricey. I pay $50 for the larger can, but there are rebates out there that do help.

If you want clear skin, this is the right product for you. I was on accutane as a teenager, and that cleared my BAD acne, but I have always had the annoying little acne ever since. I used this for a couple days and my face has been clear. I never get pimples any more. Definitely this is something I will continue to use my whole life because I just have to face it that I will always have acne if I don't use it.

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!
