Pros:

Works fast and the price is cheap.

Cons:

Can often cause skin to feel very dry.

After trying a lot of acne treatments none of them seemed to work, so i switched to oxy as a last resort i wasnt really expecting it to work but boy was a surprised it worked within a week. It does cause my skin to feel a little dry but thats nothing a little face cream cant fix.

Pros:

cheap and it actually works

Cons:

definately agree with everyone else when they say that it's pretty drying

looooove it. a few months ago oxy came out with a new wash containing salicylic acid, but for some reason, i think this one works better on my skin. anyway, i have oily, acne prone skin and this definately clears it up. i use this every morning and night, along with a deep pore cleansing scrub every other day and a mud face mask once a week. great results. although i am in a search for a good moisturizer.. any suggestions that would work well with this?

Pros:

same main ingredient as Proactive but for less price

Cons:

Drying and itchy skin

My face seems to get a little dry (more so in the winter) and itchy from using this product. I think using a moisturizer will help but I choose not to use it. I just don't like using a face lotion because it makes my face feels greasy. My face usually gets a little dry after washing but oily in about 3-4 hours afterwards. The BP wash seems to be doing something so far because it's keeping my existing acne under control and I haven't noticed a new one forming yet. I have a few tiny ones but nothing to be worried about. It's only been a week and I suppose it will continue to get better after a month of use. I would also advice you not to use too much of it and leave it on for too long to keep the dryness down.

Pros:

It gets rid of you huge, inflated zits :)

Cons:

But you still have tiny zits, unless you use it for months. The packaging is drippy.

Good product.

Pros:

Soft skin
Minimizes blackheads
Reduced acne on forehead

Cons:

More red acne
More whiteheads
Doesn't keep skin oil-free very long

I started using this product about a month ago. I really like it. Everytime I wash my face, it feels soft right afterward. The thing is, that feeling doesn't last very long. My skin gets oily in about an hour. I'm not talking very oily but still, it shouldn't do that. The strange thing is it cleared my acne in certain places, while intensifying acne in other places. My cheeks have about 10 small, red, no puss, pimples. People have complained about dry skin. I don't get dry skin at all. It's probably because I have oily skin. One more thing is your face does get a little itchy here and there, but thats probably because of the benzoyle peroxide. Bottomline: Good product for Matt from Detroit, but you need to find what works for you. I would recommend you try this product, but rememeber, no one treatment is good for everybody.

Pros:

Fragrance free
Foamy
Works

Cons:

10% BP may be a bit harsh
May give an initial breakout
Drying

I like this a lot. My face is getting an initial breakout from this product, but I can totally tell it is working. I can't wait to have clear skin. Most cleansers leave my face bright red, but this hasn't yet. I remove my makeup before I wash my face with a gentle cleanser. Then, I use this. All I use is a small amount, and I foam it up. I put it on my U-zone (where I break out in pimples). I follow with a moisturizer. This routine has been so helpful for me.

Pros:

IT HAS A NICE TEXTURE KIND OF FOAMY, ITS EASY WET LATEHR RINSE. AND IT'S PRETTY GOOD AT DELIVERING CONSISTANT RESULTS

Cons:

IT BLEACHES, SO IF YOUR TAN PREPARE TO LIGHTEN UP A TAD. ALSO IF YOU DON'T WASH OFF COMPLETELY IT WILL BLEACH YOUR PILLOW AND OR TOWEL

IT'S ONE OF THE BEST PRODUCTS OVER THE COUNTER. HOWEVER IF IT HAS A BLEACHING AFFECT THEN I AM A LITTLE HESITANT TO PUT ON MY SKIN REPED.
