Pros:

No burning sensation

Cons:

A bit sticky

I've got moderate adult acne and I've tried all kinds of "anti-blemish" creams on the market because I wanted to avoid the flaking and bleached linen associated with anti-acne creams. I finally decided on Freederm because it is said to be suitable for sensitive skin and doesn't attempt to rip your whole face off with chemicals. I've used it for a couple of days and so far my massive pimples are still there, although they're not half as red and sore anymore. Although I doubt it would work for everybody, I think it's worth a try if you don't want scaly skin. I'll let you know how it's working in a couple of weeks.

Pros:

Easy to apply and not too harsh. Effective on mild acne. Alot of people sell packets cheap together on Ebay from Ebay shops.

Cons:

Does not clear up more severe acne effectively and is not as amazing as they may advertise.

Great if you have mild acne and need to clear up redness and a few spots without harsh skin products.

Pros:

It was not coloured and didnt show on. didnt have any other pros.

Cons:

for me, it didnt work at all. it didnt get rid of any of my spots and just left a hole in my pocket after paying a fortune for something that doesnt even work

it wasnt worth the money at all. i found using dove soap more effective!

Pros:

Freederm really helped the acne on my jawline better than any other product. It is easy to apply

Cons:

Doesn't help really stubborn spots. Expensive.

I only use it at night and it really helped clear up a lot of my acne. It hasn't helped with the really stubborn spots. It has also shrunk the red marks left by spots. It worked a miracle on my forehead and it doesn't dry out the skin at all. Give it a try

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.

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:

It seems to reduce inflammation on single spots, especially underlying red ones, and help them heal a bit quicker.

Cons:

If i spread a film over an area it frequently causes small whiteheads to appear in that area in a very short space of time ie a day or less. Another reviewer has had same problem I notice.

Because of said whitehead problem, I only apply to single, angry spots where it can help them calm down a heal a bit faster. I don't use it to prevent spots, as I certain it actually causes whiteheads when I apply to healthy skin!

Pros:

No bleaching, not that expensive when bought in form of Nicam gel for 60g was 21 EURO instead of Freederm 25g

Cons:

Have to say unlike others it made my skin dry - but just used moituriser and it was fine!

Havebeen using nicam gel which is the same as freederm,it is non marketed and made by the same manufacturer - so if your using long term id say buy it behind the pharmacy counter in Boots!much cheaper! I found this stuff brilliant - it made my face totally clear for the first time in years! i used it to maintain clear skin after a course of antibiotics and found it worked wonders - my skin never got totally clear from antibiotics but this made it totally clear. My ance was described as mild adult acne by the way - i noticed it from the reviews- it appeared to work for othes with same thing maybe not as good for really agressive teenage acne but id still give it a try! So much better than BP - bleaching is a joke!!!

I have just bought freederm this morning, and after a couple of hours, inflamation has gone down.

I have just bought freederm this morning, and after a couple of hours, inflamation has gone down. It was a bit pricy( £9), but on the whole it has already made my skin look much better and it was well worth the money! :DDD
