Pros:

does exactly what it says- reduces redness and swelling

Cons:

cant put make up over it. a little dryness(but i have sensive skin)

im 13 and must had had spots for 2 years. id seen this on the adverts and decided to gte my mum to shell out the £9 on it. it makes your skin smooth, but when i tried to put make up on it started to rub off. therefore i only use it once a day. at first it made my skin a little worse but a week later my skin is really clearing up. i really recommend it!

Pros:

It can reduce spots and does sometimes reduce redness.

Cons:

Tends to rub off on my pillow and for me it makes the spot develope very quickly into a white head which i can then pop and be rid of that way.

I wouldnt use it as a quick fix... Youre gunna need atleast 3-4 days to get rid of a spot.

Pros:

I like it, it worked from the 3d day for me. It reduces the size of my spots and the redness. No side effects for now.

Cons:

Very expensive for that small amount!
I bought 10ml tube to try it. I was lucky it was on half price at Superdrugs.
Don't know what will happen when I stop using it.

It works fine.

Pros:

Helped loads with adult onset acne...

Cons:

...but less effective with teenage spots

I bought some Freederm on a pharmacists advice about 6 weeks ago for my son but decided to use it myself as I (horribly) developed acne about 7 years ago. Within about a week of using Freederm, my more inflamed acne had all but disappeared and the blackheads I've had forever were looking less raised. Now, after six weeks, my skin looks amazing - almost totally blackhead free with only the occasional raised red lump that disappears within a couple of days. My son's experience with Freederm is less succesful but it hasn't been a total waste of time. He had his first cyst just before Xmas and was experiencing constant breakouts of whiteheads across his nose and forehead. Since starting Freederm he has had no cysts and his forehead has cleared up totally. He is still getting whiteheads around his nose but these are less frequent and tend to fade quickly. All in all, I would recommend you give this product a try, especially for adult-onset acne.

I only purchased this product today after i went into a big depressive about my face. I got home and put a thin layer on each spot and the redness and size have already gone down, I'm really impressed

Pros:

seems to work well

Cons:

initially game me a breakout of small whiteheads

appears to work well. I had a cyst on my cheek that is significantly better after 4 weeks of using it. Has cleared up all the small black heads and whiteheads everywhere else. I dont know what some people are complaining about it being expensive, IT WORKS. Is £8 reeally somthing to worry about when you have a spot free face.

Pros:

It works well, doesn't bleach everything you own.

Cons:

Quite pricey but worth it.

Having suffered spots almost constantly since 12 years old, I'm now 36! I've beeen using for a week and my face looks better already, has stopped spots from starting and made big ones that usually last for weeks go down to almost nothing. Noticed my face peeling slightly, which seems to be getting rid of suface blackheads too. It's pricey but worth it and you should check out deals on the web if you're going to use all the time. As long as I let it dry properly I can put moisturiser on top and then foundation also.
