Pros:

It makes your skin feel like you just rubbed an entire log of poop on it. So good, it even increases your pimples!! It did wonders to my acne-free face!!

Cons:

none

After about 2 days of use, my face was so full of pimples, you couldn't even tell my skin color! It's amazing the power of innovation and technology these days...I mean, who would have thought that an acne-ridden face turns on just about every single chinaman around? Wow! Thank you so much!! If it weren't for Oxy, I'd still be sitting in my bamboo hut rubbing gorilla crap on my face... Thanks a million!!

Pros:

Makes skin feel super soft
makes skin clean
makes skin feel oil free and supple.

Cons:

drying is a minimal. nothing to worry about.

when you first read that its 10 BP you probably think wow, way to harsh, no way. but its actually is sooo gentile! it doesnt burn skin whats so ever! and it was litterally dirt cheap. my acne didnt really get better, but i usually get a new blemish maybe once every two days, with this, i got no new ones. why not try it.. YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOOSE BUT YOUR ACNE.

Pros:

More affordable than Proactive, but works just as well. I have used it for the last 5yrs. and reasonably blemish free.

Cons:

wish there was a scrub choice to work out blackheads.

Benzoil Peroxide washes are the only that work for me. After 20yrs of going to acne doctors, this is the only OTC wash worth buying. I literally have tried them all!

Pros:

DRAMATIC Results within 5 days. See things changing within 3. Cheap, Can get it ANYWHERE!

Cons:

A little dry, but use a moisturiser. Your skin will get cope.

IM BASICALLY ACNE FREE!!!!!!!! Dermatologist perscribed something that was way too expensive, this was the closest over the counter cleanser. BUT OMG DOES IT WORK MIRACLES! 3 days i saw results, after 5 days it was dramatic. Started with once a day, then moved to using it 2 times a day. Just make sure you use a moisturiser. Yeah it seems brutal, it may seem strong when you first use it but dont give up! Your skin will come around. I used Pro Acitive for years. Did nothing. I think it made it worse... But this... WOW. it is amazing. I've had a chemical peal each month to get rid of the redness from past popping and scars. But This Oxy product is what made the pimples stop. Its honestly the best thing i've ever found. BUY IT!!!!!!! I've been using it for 8 months. My Dermatologist FLIPPED with the results i got.

Pros:

Lathers great, makes my skin like super soft, doesnt dry skin out, 1st thing i found that lasts about 10 hours w/out my skin going back to being oily!!

Cons:

i wish they made girls OXY, cuz the scent of the face wash is a really strong guy smell. (i mean, it smells good, but i dont want t smell like a guy either! LOL!

the stuff works amazing! im so glad i found an ad for this. anyother soap (except Cetaphil) get rid of the oil on my face. i use the 2% salicic acid... or something like that! i dont hve bad pimples, i get like a few here and there, i just have bd oil. i recommend this to everyone w/ bad skin, boy or girl...

Pros:

Cleared my cystic facial acne, and bacne.

Cons:

Bleached towels.

My face never felt dried out and I never used a moisturizer with it. Great if you have oily skin and nothing else works. :)

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 up Skin Quickly, Smells Clean, Cheap

Cons:

Sometimes it doesn't take away the tine acne patches

I had bad acne for like four year of my life, like really really bad. So embarrassing. I used this and my skin cleared up like that :]
July 6, 2009

Pros:

removes oil---------------FAST
LOTS better than Proactiv
size of acne reduced quickly

Cons:

Oil comes back after washing
Bottle empties fast
sometimes stings skin

I have used proactiv and it just doesn't match up to Oxy I used both Sensitive(green) and Maximum(red) Sensitive- has 5% benzol peroxide and is gental on the skin-after you can feel the coolness Maximum-has 10% benzol peroxide and can sting skin a little but it goes away quick-workes faster than Sensitive Bottom line--- Try it you never know
