Pros:

works fast, dies pimples, helps with redness and inflammation, cheap

Cons:

smells bad, can overdry if not careful, i hear it bleaches hair (but im blonde, so not sure if this is true), white streaks on skin if used too much

works well with a stubborn breakouts, but never ever use this more than once a day. horrible side effects for me. however, it works well for popped pimples and hard-to-clear spots. i use it as a toner every once in a while, and its great for that.

Pros:

Cleared up my skin, within the first three days of using it.

Cons:

face did get dry, but i use vitacilina (Spanish) over the counter product to help with the dryness. Also... has a con on bleaching the hair, if your not careful.

hydrogen peroxide is cheap, works, and gets straight to the problem. I've tried proactive sucks, leaves my skin severely sensitive to the sun, and takes longer to apply, not to mention how expensive it is.

Pros:

Reduces redness, reduces size of pimples

Cons:

Burns a little when applied

I just put this on today after i broke out very bad on my forehead the night before. I put this on my forhead and about an hour later i saw a difference in redness and size, the pimples that broke out all over my forhead are barely noticable and it has only been about 8 hours since i put it on. I dont know if it prevents pimples yet but I will see! I recommend this definitely.

Pros:

Works very well in a short amount of time

Cons:

Most people say it does not smell, but I think that it it is bearable, but not pleasant

Just dip Q-tip or cotton ball in the hydrogen peroxide and apply where necessary. It's that EASY! =D I recommend that this 'treatment' should at least be tried. If it doesn't work, then there are always other methods of clearing acne.

Pros:

The white bubbling is gross but kind of cool to watch it reduce acne before your eyes!

Cons:

Smell. Also, the stinging can be moderate to barely noticeable depending on severity of the individual pimple.

Have spot pimples and also a bad case of folliculitis. Seems to be working really well so far. If using for folliculitis, have a friend/ family member apply to pimples on your head (directly on pimple) to avoid hair dying. Works best if pimple has been popped or opened so that the HP can mix directly with the bacteria.

Pros:

I have light acne on my upper arms that I was having trouble getting to go away. I found this page and tried it and when i woke up in the morning my acne was nearly gone!

Cons:

Burns if you get it in a cut (duh) and it doesn't smell great.

Hydrogen Peroxide works really really good for getting rid of acne. Luckily i'm not one of the people who have terrible acne i just had some on my upper arms which almost went away and the ones that are still there are greatly reduced in size. You have nothing to lose from this just try it, you shouldn't be sorry xD

Pros:

Clears acne lightens old scars and complexion /it's very affordable/ it works

Cons:

drying and stings a little

use it as a spot treatment on a daily basis and once or twice a week use it as a toner all over your face. For emergency situations dilute an aspirin and a few drops of HP - apply over affected area- leave it for about 10 minutes and rinse. Use a good oil free moisturizer to avoid premature wrinkles. Use it consistently for better results-It works wonders
