Pros:

Works rather well! I can see results overnight.

Cons:

Drys out your skin, and burns your face with water hits it (is this only me?)

DO NOT USE if you have sensitive skin unless you are that damn desperate.

Pros:

Works....

Cons:

I don't have sensitive skin, but for some reason, it makes my whole face red and extremely itchy. The redness lasted for a couple of days. The redness was worse than the acne itself. IT WILL DRY OUT AND IS EXTREMELY IRRITATING

DONT USE, UNLESS YOU HAVE THE STRONGEST SKIN ON THE PLANET

Pros:

It can help decrease the inflammation of a new zit and prevent it from growing huge. I love to spot treat with this! My zits seem to go away a lot faster.

Cons:

Do not overuse--it can be very drying.

I love spot treating with this!

Pros:

its a zit-zapper! I bought this after giving up on proactiv (Arrrgh!) and was amazed that FINALLY after so many dermatologist and expensive luxury products this little guy helped!

Cons:

It smells bad, but only for a minute. i have a nice smelling moisteriser to apply after. It did dry out my skin at first but using a toner and good moisteriser kicked that problems butt.

After I finished this product my skin felt so much better. I went down to the 5% bp oxy acne vanishing treatment which keeps it clear. I used to use Oxy when I was 11 and then started on other products because I saw cool ads for them pretty much. I was so suprised that Oxy would come back with a vengence on my acne and rescue me! I find using witch hazel as a toner works great. I wouldnt recommend it to people with sensitive skin, unless they're desperate.

Pros:

Works! This product does an amazing job at what it was made to do.

Cons:

Dries out your skin but for me it wasn't that bad but I guess for people with sensitive skin it could be worse.

Overall this is a kickass product and I highly recommended it because it does what its supposed to do.

Pros:

clears skin and keeps it that way!

Cons:

a little drying and when applying makeup u will get the flakies..

soooo worth it..and i find that using a gentle ALCOHOL FREE toner before applying this bp really really helps with the flakies...this bp and the oxy 10% bp wash are staples in my regimen...it blasts acne.. :)

Pros:

Does remove redness and make things smaller.

Cons:

Leaves scars, but maybe that's from me popping them. Also dries out your skin a lot, and I don't have sensitive skin.

Clears up spots pretty well.

Pros:

This stuff worked great for me, I've been through every acne treatment you could think of including Accutane and this stuff works the best for my skin!

Cons:

Like anything else, my face gets a little worse before it gets better.

This stuff is great!

Pros:

I really liked this. It seemed to be the fastest working stuff I have ever used. I could see some results over night.

Cons:

This DID dry my skin out A LOT. I used at night when I would be able to take a shower in the morning. Use it only in heavily infected areas.

This is has a lot BP in it. So if you are sensitive to it don't use it. It works fast. This stuff is the fastest working stuff I have ever seen.
