Pros:

redeuses redness, and pimple size, fells better than the other medications, and afordable.

Cons:

dosent clear up your skin right away, it takes about 1-2 weeks to really see a change.

would recomend if you have some acne, but too much acne wont clear up your face that much.

Pros:

Erased all of my blackheads in a couple days. Dried up some oily spots.

Cons:

At first, I thought it was working, but then I saw a picture from before I started using the product, and there weren't any differences. I actually think it made the acne get worse.

Also, the medication is very drying.

Only put it on blackheads, otherwise, try something else. The blackheads come back if you don't put it on constistently. Worth a try for some people, but if two bottles doesn't make the acne go away, don't bother trying anymore. I've stopped using it for a few weeks, and it seemed to get better. One bottle has enough for about a month. I used mine in the morning and before I went to sleep. It doesn't get rid of acne scars, or completely clears the acne.

Pros:

dries out the pimples, seems to really work! Works better than other benzoyl peroxide brands ive tried in the past..planning to buy another tube tommorow or really soon since im running out.

Cons:

can get too drying, esp allergic reactions on eye area..so try to keep it away from eyes and wash hands immediately after use.

Want clear skin? Try it...it may dry you up alot but its better than having nasty red bumps continuously forming. Just put on moistorizer 15min after putting on the ZAP Zyt

Pros:

fast, reduced swelling and redness of pimples in about 2 days, but also did a great job on blackheads on my nose. also, worked great to prevent pimples and got rid of my oily skin

Cons:

none really, outside of some dryness and occasional redness, but what topical treatment doesn't do that!

affordable, works great, works fast, and it also helps minimize my pores

Pros:

Great, inexpensive. I have tried everything, and this stuff really does work like magic. Clears in about a week. and keeps face from turning oily throughout the day. did i mention CHEAP??

Cons:

it dried my face out really bad. But i Used Merle Norman products to correct the peeling, and now my face is clearing up.

BUY it! I have really oily skin, so i wash with Merle Norman Clear Complexion cleanser (salisylic acid) and then aply ZAPZYT and then Merle Norman Clear Complexion Moisturizer. with this combo, my face is clearing fast! and not drying out horribly, as before.

Pros:

Cleared up pimples in a few days, whoch was nice for a change. Even if they didnt clear up right away, the redness reduced.

Cons:

(Of course) The dryness was a slight issue. Also, after awhile, I think my pimples have become somewhat immune to the product. It takes more and more applications (and time) to heal.

Zapzyt is a good product, GREAT price (I actually bought it as a joke, but hey, it works). OH! Never,ever, ever use Proactive (repairing) Lotion after using Zapzyt. I had extra in the bottle, so I did this. For me, the combo dryed out my skin twice as bad. Just sayin.
