Pros:

Temporary drying of pimples.

Cons:

To drying, irritation, just use 2.5% BP its just as good, or better.

It doesn't work, you may think Its doing something at the beggining but It didn't for me.

I will no longer buy this product due to the new packaging. The cap plug breaks everytime and the product goes all over the place. There was nothing wrong with the old packaging.

Pros:

Makes skin feel less oily. Clears acne and prevent more from forming

Cons:

Dry skin

The product worked for me in the beginning and cleared the pimples up well. However, I started to sleep lesser and feel stress. The acne came back anyway. The outbreak this time is admittedly definitely less severe than last time because of the stress.

Pros:

cheap and works good only for a short while

Cons:

makes skin red and itchy...the 10% Benzoyl peroxide solution is way to much and irritates the skin more better off buying a 2.5%solution...my dermatologist said the lower the Benzoyl peroxide level the better...i suggest proactive's renewing cleanser

do not buy this it does not work and will only make skin worse...best plan is to see a dermtologist who will give you oral antibiotics and it will clear skin up much faster and better

Pros:

It's affordable and you can find it anywhere.

Cons:

It DOESN"T WORK!! And it doesn't foam, so it doesn't feel like its cleansing.

It pretty much does NOTHING for your moderate-severe acne. If you have minor/occasional acne...it might work! I sstill broke out just as bad as I did when I wasn't using it. It was basically pointless. I used it for about 6 months and then I took a year off. I decided to use it again over the summer (because they got new packaging so I thought it was a different product), but it still did NOTHING!!! Don't waste your time....trust me its not worth it!

Pros:

seemed to work at first...

Cons:

I'm NOT sure..but did anyone else observe a bunch of tiny little bumps after a couple of weeks? (doubt it was from diet) ...used it with benzoyl peroxide gel....

I want to know if other people also experienced more small little acne bumps after about 3 weeks?

Pros:

cleared up spots quickly

Cons:

my skin isnt overly sensitive, but after a week of using this it got extremely red, flaky, and was quite sore. some people told me it had to get worse before it got better, so i persevered. my skn s horrbly dry, flaky and red now. not so good

clears spots but leaves you with horrible skin anyway

Pros:

I bought the kit and it helped a little.

Cons:

It dries out your skin and it didn't take my acne away it only helped a little.

It didn't work for me but it seems to work for all of these people.

Pros:

None that I can see

Cons:

I only used this product one day and the next day when I woke up my left eye was really swollen and my skin felt so dry. Plus when I was putting on the product it smelled so bad, like vomit or something.

It may work for others but it doesn't for me, bottom line is I'm never gonna touch this stuff ever again.
