Pros:

Activates the 'purity process'

Cons:

The 'purity process' sucks. It made my skin visibly much worse, i'd prefer to have mild acne then inflammed areas and larger whiteheads for 4 weeks.

Avoid. Although works for some, it may be considered a risk to use these products and is expensive. Following the regimen, with Simple products was far more effective for me.

Reduces redness but that's it
Bought this and have been using it from boots and hasn't really done anything other then reduce redness from spots and dry them out. I would not buy this again as it didn't make as big a difference as I would have liked it to.

Pros:

Now OTC so can get from any chemist
Doesn't bleach clothing
Doesn't sting on application

Cons:

Doesn't work
Quite expensive
Leaves dry patches on face

I saw reviews of this and decided to try it for the acne on my cheek, forehead and chin. I followed the instructions to wash my face, use the cream and then use an oil free moisturizer if needed. Unfortunately for me while it seemed to reduce my large spots within a week I noticed that I was getting cystic acne which I had not suffered from before. I addition the number of blackheads I was getting increased. As other reviews said this happened but went away I continued to use it until I finished the tube which took another week and a half. Finally after using the tube I went to Boots to get another treatment that I knew that worked. The tube is very small and expensive for what it is. Normally acne cream tubes last a minimum of 6 weeks which is about the time you should see the treatment working. Like other acne treatments it dries out your skin but has two major advantages if it works for you. These are it doesn't sting and doesn't bleach fabric. These are the only 2 reasons I can give for seeing if it works for you.

Pros:

Reduced redness quickly
Cheap

Cons:

Didn't clear up spots or acne scars

I had high hopes for this product, as it had been advertised so much, but it didn't do much. It did reduce redness rapidly and it is inexpensive but it didn't clear up my acne at all. Kinda disappointed. It might work for other people so give it a go.

Pros:

It hasnt made my acne any worse:-)some treatment have made my face red and sore straight after using. I have suffered with acne for years and am hoping this is the one!

Cons:

Its sooooo expensive, however its not supposed to stain the bed sheets like quinoderm so it will work out cheaper in the long run:-)

Im gonna try it now for the rest of the week along with my new oil free foundation that I have invested in. I will definatley come back and rate this product again. If you have all white bedding/clothes/towels I do recommend quinoderm to all you that have not tried, it doesnt work any more on me and I cant afford to keep replacing my stuff! Will score again after a week.
