Pros:

This product has literally cured my ten year struggle with moderate persistent acne. I no longer have to wear makeup or acne night creams, my skin just stays clear. I use it twice a day. I saw results within the second week of usage. Amazing!

Cons:

Had a bit of dry skin one day but nothing major

Buy it and use it.

Pros:

Not hard to wash off.
No bad smell.

Cons:

Didn't help.
Bad for sensitive skin.

This product dried out my skin, and it didn't help my acne at all, nor did it make it worse. It just stabilized it I guess. It's not worth really trying it.

AN AMAZING PRODUCT
I suffered from slight acne on my cheeks but nothing was helping to clear my face. I tried 5% oxy, 10%oxy, avene treatments but nothing worked like this $6 product. I have been using it for the past 2 months every night and my skin has definitely shown improvements. It is not completely clear yet as i am still dealing with hyperpigmentation marks but this facewash is helping with that as well! I read some reviews that said it caused dryness but personally, this was never the case, in fact, my skin felt smoother and more moist. Oily skin is now a concern for me! This is an amazing product but they don't ship it to Asia so i hope they ship it soon!

i have used this for years as a topical without washing it off and it works well on drying up existing pimples. it lasts much longer than the overpriced 1oz bottles of bp.

Pros:

Works extremely well
Easy to use
Cheap

Cons:

If you let it get into your hair, it will start to bleach it a blondish color, but by wrapping a towel around your hair or just being carful its easy to prevent

i used this product, along with Oxy Pads, for months and never had any acne problems, maybe an occasional pimple here or there but nothing serious or unmanagable, then the local store stopped selling this product and i had to try other things, i still used the pads but not the wash.. and bam my face broke out like never before and left some bad marks, so i went on a crazy search and eventually found it at a walgreeens that i normally dont go to.. its been a few days since getting back and im already seeing improvments

Pros:

-Helped acne within a week
-Cleared up cystic acne on my cheeks, jawline, neck, and t zone area
-Cheap

Cons:

-Broke me out around my mouth, chin, forehead, and temples
-New white heads every day
-Weird consistency that's hard to foam up, almost feels like lotion.

I had differentiating results with this product, it cleared up my skin within a week but after that parts of my skin stayed cleared while the others became even worse(before I was on a non-medicated cleanser and lotion regimen). I mean I'm no stranger to BP I was on Dan's regimen for 2 years so I'm sure my skin was well beyond getting used to BP phase. Overall I'm content with this product, if you have strange skin like me where some of your skin is very irritable while other parts are tough as a tank and needs something strong be careful. I'm gonna try to use this product and a non-medicated cleanser in the future, except I'm just gonna use this product on the areas where I listed in the pros and use the non-medicated on the areas I listed in cons. As for drying well it's BP people you gotta use a lotion or the dryness is gonna irritate your skin and make things worse.

Pros:

Clears up face, keeps face from oiling up all day.

Cons:

It can ruin your towels if you don't rinse it off completely. It can also bleach your clothes and hair if you let it sit for too long. RINSE!!

I have had acne issues for YEARS. I've used everything from organic acne products, to high quality products such as Proactive. After finally breaking down and going to the doctor about, I was started on a prescription acne treatment, with the active ingredient being 10% benzyl peroxide. One day the pharmacy was out of the prescription I needed (yea...great) so I decided to go to the store to see if they have anything with benzyl peroxide. I found oxy, noticed it had the same amount as my prescription, and bought it. After maybe a week to two weeks, it completely cleared me up. It even keeps my T-zone from oiling up throughout the day. I use it in the morning and at night, and yes it does dry your face out, but using a light moisturizer after washing your face is all it takes. I use to get massive pimples on my chin, and nothing would get rid of them. The painful ones with nothing in them. Yea, those suck. I never get those anymore. I can't remember the last time I've had one. For my face, it took that amount of benzyl peroxide. Neither 5%, or salycic acid works for me. Everybody's face is different, so if you are in the same boat as I was and have tried everything it seems, give this a shot. It's cheap, so what's to loose?

Pros:

CLEARS BACK ACNE FAST!!

Cons:

Didn't see any results on my face

I have had bad back acne since puberty hit. I am now 23 and for the first time my back is cleared up! I have tried every possible acne soap on the market and decided one day to pick up the Oxy 10%BP....Within 3 days my back acne was almost clear. It helped clear up the light red scars I also had on my back from old pimples. It is a little drying..not the the point where your back is flaking but just a little more rough than other skin on the body. Either way GIVE IT A TRY!!! I stopped using it for a week since I ran out and my acne reappeared...once I used it again...GONE! The white liquid soup seems a bit watery and not think like other soaps but don't let that fool you.
