Works for like a week
Initially liked this product but the effects quickly wore off - I do not recommend. Stick to a more healthy life style, with natural ingredients.

Pros:

doesn't dry out skin
quick absorption

Cons:

Didn't notice an improvement

After trying many products, I determined Salicylic Acid doesn't help my acne (BP does though). I could see this helping light acne.

Pros:

none

Cons:

irritated my skin, leaves film on skin

i guess this works for some people, but for me, it makes my skin feel irritated. it puts a layer of scummy residue on my face that makes me dry and constricted and has me immediately wash with soap and moisturize.

Pros:

-Helps popped pimples heal quicker(in terms of redness and size)
-Nice smell

Cons:

-Didn't do much for my moderate-severe acne

While on this product I was using Oxy 10% bp wash and my skin was still pretty bad. Then once I stopped Oxy and only used this, my skin was REALLY bad. I was also using a moisturizer. This is a good product if you have very light-moderate acne.

Pros:

It has a nice pad not to hard on trying to find out the right amount to put on your face.

Cons:

It does not work right away and leaves skin oilly, and wet.

The bottom line is if you are willing to wait for a long time( one mounth) to see a little bit of a diffrence on your face them don't buy this product. it actually made my face worse after it looked better.

Cons:

Dried my skin out and caused it to break out worse

I do not recommend this product.
