Pros:

there really weren't any at all. =/ perhaps i noticed it helped a little bit in some areas, but overall it didn't help well at all.

Cons:

burning, stinging, itching, peeling, redness, and general discomfort for an extended period of time.

i definitely would not recommend it. in fact, i think it may have just made my acne worse. i used it for two weeks until i was fed up with feeling like something was viciously eating away at my face. it was very very uncomfortable for me. my face felt like it was on fire, it was very agitated, even after applying moisturizer, and my skin was peeling. i have sensitive skin and if you do too, be forewarned.

Pros:

I love this stuff. I'm going to buy 2 bottles before I go overseas for a year! Works much better than the expensive brands and competing brands. This $4 bottle works BETTER than the $120 Obagi acne kit I bought. you can't go wrong. back to the basics

Cons:

may dry a little. but if u have jojoba oil, you don't notice a difference

GET IT! My acne was moderate. I mostly have scars, but I did have a lot of random big pimples that would come out. Especially the ones that was under my skin. those are the worst cuz they look like bumps and u can't pop them. However, once I got this, i haven't had any. actually, i did get a small one, but i used the OXY spot treatment along with the washer and it never became an actual bump. so yeah, i love this stuff. The reason y this stuff works is because it sticks with the basics. no fragrence, no fancy ingredients. just straight up benzoyl peroxide @ 10%. Love it!

Pros:

Works pretty well, not neary as harsh as I though it would be. I just have mild acne, so it works great to make sure I have clear, nice skin!

Cons:

It is a little runny, but that's good for when you wash it off. Seems to irritate and sting a little at certain places such as the corners of my nose and just random spots on my face. A little drying, but not much at all.

I'm quite pleased and impresed with this product. Will definitley keep using it. Going to use it right now before I go to bed, actually. (:

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

This product really works wonders on moderate acne and leaves the skin feeling softer.I wouldn't recommend the spot treatment because it dries and irritates your skin

Cons:

Takes time before you see results

Buy it,it doesn't hurt to try!

Pros:

Works pretty well to clear out acne, doesn't have much of a smell to it

Cons:

Makes your skin very dry, takes a few days to start working

This is just one product that you should have in your mirror cabinet. It works pretty well, but you should also use it with something that clears the pores out.
