Pros:

Works for bacne, ingrown hairs. Pad has a plain side and one that exfoliates. No dryness or irritation.

Cons:

Wish the jar came with more medicine in it, or that you could purchase the liquid separately

I typically get acne on my back and shoulders and sometimes other parts of my body. I started using this a few months ago on my back and shoulders and haven't had a single pimple or bump since I started. At first I thought it was a fluke, but I've been using it long enough without a blemish that I've concluded it must be working. And unlike the RetinA and other topical treatments I've tried, I have absolutely no dryness. I couldn't be happier! FYI, I also use it in my bikini area to prevent ingrown hairs, and have been nearly problem-free there as well.

Works wonders!

Pros:

Smell
Soothing
Inexpensive

I've used these several times. They take makeup off nicely. (NOT EYE MAKEUP.) It tingles after using them and feels soothing. It does alright at clearing skin. Not really for severe acne, more moderate.

Pros:

Prevents Acne, Refreshing, Easy to Use, Relatively Inexpensive

Cons:

Doesn't clear acne immediately.

I had tried a whole bunch of acne products before I decided to pick up Stridex. With regular use (once or twice a day should be enough), it cleared up my face within a few weeks.

Pros:

Prevents acne. Very, very gentle. Has aloe so it sort of moisturizes. Smells good. Great to use after shaving to unclog pores.

Cons:

Doesn't get rid of current acne. Tingles pretty noticeably for first couple of minutes after applying. MIGHT make your skin a little tight and flaky. If this happens, follow up with your moisturizer.

These sensitive skin pads are great to use with Dan's regimen if the BP twice a day is drying you out. The perfect regimen in my opinion is: Morning 1. Cetaphil Gentle Cleaner (BAR) (use its lather as shaving cream). 2. Stridex Sensitive Skin Pads 3. Aveeno Ultra-Calming Moisturizer spf 15 Night 1. Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser (LIQUID) 2. Dan's BP 3. Neutrogena Healthy Skin Lotion w/ Alpha-Hydroxy MY SKIN IS CLEAR AND LOOKS GREAT

Pros:

great as toner -- gentle, but helps skin become less oily

Cons:

works better when combined with neutrogena on the spot

great as a toner. helps reduce oil. can be a little drying, so apply lotion on dry areas after. then, put on the spot treatment on the spots.
