Pros:

I've used this at night for years (the cream or gel) mixed with aloe vera gel or other face mosturizers. It feels like a lotion on my face (not drying at all) & clears the acne too. Has worked far better than all the other products I've tried.

Cons:

It can bleach clothing/bedding. It does have the "benzoyl peroxide" smell, but that can be diminished depending on the lotion it's mixed with.

Try it! You will probably be surprised, as I was, that a mosturizing lotion can help clear acne!

Pros:

Works very well - at a much better price than other over the counter products.

Cons:

the bottle ( cream ) has a weird gritty ingredient, which i can't stand. needs to be shaken well - best for spot treatment. Usage all over will produce an extremely dry almost powdery film. Can only be bought at Wal Mart.

I just started using this a few months ago, as I could not afford another similar product - I was very impressed with the results. This might work perfectly for people with light acne, but I am battling problem adult acne.

Pros:

This is the best acne product I have ever used!!!!!!!!! Honestly I have tried everything from perscription to over the counter. I don't like the equate clearisil, but the equate oxy is what I am talking about!!

Cons:

A little drying, but I would rather be dry than have tons of pimples. The consistency is chalky but I would rather have chalky then moist like cream. It is super hard to come by at Walmart and it's always sold out!! This time I bought five packages!

It's awsome and sooooooooooooooooooooooo affordible!!!!! The best bang for your buck ever!! I swear by this product!! Can clear your face up if you have a terrible break out in a matter of day's!!

Pros:

clear pimples fast

Cons:

too strong

this product says use daily, I use a small amount once or twice aweek because its very strong, works great and keep face clear. I got proactive as a gift and after useing it for about 2 months it dosen't even compare to how good this stuff work's.

Pros:

Leaves face totally oil free for the ENTIRE DAY!! This is such a major plus because my face was so oily, I could wipe down shop machines with my forehead and keep them from rusting.
Also clears up acne very well and works much faster than 2.5 or 5

Cons:

Weird gritty consistency at first, but it all rubs in.

Make sure you put on moisturizer after applying this, it not only is good for your face but it rubs in the white streaks you missed.

Pros:

It is cheap and works very well.... Walmart no longer sells it so I got the name brand stuff for 5 bucks and it has a smaller content... doesn't work! my face is all broke out!! When are they bringing it back?!?

Walmart needs to bring back the Equate acne gel or my face will never be clear again if anyone has found something else that works let me know!
