Pros:

Gets rid of acne quick and if you use it everyday it keeps working. Great for severe adult acne. Cheap!

Cons:

None that I've found so far. I am please.

I have had severe acne for as long as I can remember. Everyone's acne is different so it may not work for everyone. For the first time in my life I feel like I am keeping my acne under control. My face looks and feels great. I started using this product b/c I read something online that said adult acne should be treated with this benzoyl peroxide along with a daily, oil free lotion. I tried it and got wonderful results.

Pros:

Clears Face Up Quick

Cons:

A Little drying, but not bad

The key for me was to use this after I shower, and NOT with water. At first, I used it in the shower and lathered with water as directed, but that didn't help much. So now I use it after I get out of the shower and my face is all dry, and just rub it onto my face, and let it sit for a minute or two. Then I rinse. Good luck!

Pros:

Gentle, Quick/Easy to use, it WORKS!

Cons:

Drying, Runny

I am VERY sensitive to benzoyl peroxide but its the only thing that has kept my skin clear. BP creams/gels are often too irritating, leave me shiny & i have to avoid touching my face because of bleaching. This product is simple, i wash my face with it morning & night, then moisturize with cetaphil & i'm good for the day! I saw improvement within the first 3 days. My face is completely clear & my clogged pores are disappearing. I thought the wash wouldnt work because it doesnt leave the BP on my skin for long enough but thats proven wrong because i see a huge difference, Its gentle, easy to use and rinses easily and completely. There are minimal ingredients in it which is good because there is little to no irritation. The only cons is that its drying which is common with any acne product, but with a good moisturizer (which should always be used anyways) there is no problems with dryness. The product is a little runny which makes it rinse easily. With a pump dispenser it would b

Pros:

it really started to clear my acne in just three days.

Cons:

It really dried up my skin so be ready to buy some powerful moisturizer. It might also burn a little or sting your eye.

It works but dries up your skin.

Pros:

It clears up acne! WOOH!

Cons:

Dries skin a bit.

It dries up zits. Along with this, I use BenzaClin at night, and Differin in the morning. If my skin gets dry I use Cetaphil cream. This routine is for greasy,sensitive, and acne ridden skin.

Pros:

I works fast. It doesnt sting or burn. I really think I will be using this for a while

Cons:

It does dry your face out but I just cut down my using it to once a day(at night) and that solved my problem

This stuff shocked me. I read several reviews and most were good. Some people complained about the dryness at first but I would rather have dry skin than acne any day. I just wash my face with Cetaphil in the morning and use the Oxy at night. The both work well. I know from having acne since I was 12 that cetaphil is a good product but I also needed something to treat the acne and so far it seems to be the oxy. One thing to remember is that once your face clears up YOU STILL NEED TO USE THE OXY. There is no cure for acne and you just need to prevent it. If I had known that and listened years ago, maybe my skin would be clear now. So far I really like this product. I have sensitive oily skin and it is working for me. p.s. I got mines from Wal-Mart and if you work and have a flexible spending account, this product does qualify as a reimbursable expense.
