Pros:

-rather effective
-nice minty after-feel

Cons:

-stron medication, careful if your skin is very prone to drying

Ok, let's face it, you're stupid if you use Benzoyl Peroxide anywhere near your eyes. The same goes to pretty much any other acne product out there, excluding the herbal solutions. This is a good product for people who want fast results and who know how to moisturize their skin. If your skin is sensitive, go with a lower concentration of Benzoyl Peroxide.

Pros:

Clears acne!!! from little bumps to real pimples

Cons:

none

The only over the counter product that cand take care of acne, dosen't dry my skin, feels tingly and refreshing... and clears up my face every single time I use it. It's truly amazing!!! If you don't have severe acne, and don't want to go into deep medical treatments... this product is the best!

Pros:

I like the bottle idea,which is practical for travel.Seems to make my skin glow and fresher. Acne seems to get better, and pimples are smaller and lighter. Ok smell :).Can be drying but works great with the Clean and Clear dual action moisturizer

Cons:

Not all of my acne has disapeared. Not many people have noticed the acne that HAS dissapeared.CAn be drying without a moisturizor

This is a great product.I may buy it again, or i may try the advantage acne control kit. This is much better than anything I have used before( Neutrogena Deep Clean cleanser/astrigent/moisturizer)I'm very glad I tried this product, and so far I am pleased with Clean&Clear and want to try more products from their line. As a 13 year old with VERY SEVERE ACNE(i'm taking horrible acne) its hard to find a product that works pretty well. While this product did not create any miracles for my acne,I have to say that I am very thankful for using this product.

Pros:

Works fast. Takes the pain out of the acne.

Cons:

When you first start using it, it does dry your skin.

Amazing product with the best results. I never had acne until I graduated from high school and then I spent hundreds of dollars on products that "sorta worked". I started using this and pimples clear up overnight. It is still working for me years later.

Pros:

Zapped my reoccurring zits i have been getting since I stopped using birth contorl.

Cons:

It does tend to dry your skin but for my skin is not that sensitive so I just balance it off with a moisturizer in the morning(with SPF15) and a regular one at night.

I will continue to use this. No bad experiences yet. It's been my answer to hormonal acne that I began getting since I stopped using birth control (Ortho Evra) about six months ago. Prior to this I use to NEVER break out. So thank goodness for this product.

Pros:

Felt Clean after use...and made pimple less frequent for a bit..

Cons:

Stings like hell, stinks ,made my skin peel and uncomfortable,not suitable for 2 times a day..too much peroxide..made my green face washer turn bright yellow!

i also had the continuous control mousturiser and another clean and clear "gone in 3 days" mini tube of stuff.this really burned and stang after using it for 2 days...soon after my skin was red and peeling..i've seen little improvement in my pimples...once one was gone (which took days) another would pop up and still be all pussy and hurt. this really was too strong..i've now turned to proactiv and it's nearly been a month. it too dried and peeled after 1 week of use, but i stopped for 2 days and went back on and hasnt peeled as bad..just a few spots..and it's been a bit longer than a week...too early to say if proactiv works, but it's much better than the continuous control system!

I slept at a friend's house and noticed a few new spots on my face. She let me use the clean and clear cleanser . The next morning they were visibly smaller. Amazing product!!
