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:

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:

-Doesnt make anything worse
-Less oily skin for about 1/2 hour
-Everyday use for strong skin.

Cons:

-Makes face white
-If not rubbed in, very very very noticable
-Small amount but is cheap

I have very strong skin and i can use it for all over coverage (which i do) Its very cheap (everywhere from 3-5 dollars) so i use it if i run out of products (I currently have been working with cetaphil lotion -greattttt stuff-, natures cure -i dont not use the pills-, proactive, and i am ordering DDF sulfur mask, and tea tree oil, and Peter Thomas Roth sa. acid and wash. I know its alot, but hey. Anything for clean skin, right? Mostly since the average of the DDF and P.T.R. is like, $40, $3 is a huge bargain.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Severely burned my face after just one application!!! The pain is so bad.

I will never recommend this to anyone. Too harsh and should only be available by a prescription. There are to many people out there (like myself) that don't realize the strength of the OTC medicines.
