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!

Pros:

Works great and works fast

Cons:

Has a bit of an odor, and sometimes will leave a bit of white on your face, but can be rubbed in a little to clear up.

Overall seems to work ok. Haven't tried Clearasil but due to it being at a lower price i think it should work ok.

Pros:

This stuff is great! We went to several walmart stores trying to find it but had no such luck. Both of my kids used it and had great results.

Cons:

none

We can't find it anymore. We can't find another product that works remotely close to it.

Pros:

It's a shame when one finds a product that works and it afforable, the FDA comes along, finds a problem and snatches it from the public....

Cons:

I can't find it anymore !!!

Wish it would come back.

Pros:

are you serious!!! this product is ridiculous!! honestly i've tried every acne treatment you can think of... except for pro active and that's just cause i've seen what it really does to people face "makes it worse". and no acne treatment comes close!

Cons:

i guess... the only bad thing about it is that its only sold at wal-mart but... isn't that where everyone shops???

if you want a acne treatment that actually does its job..... then equate is right for you!!

Pros:

Works really well. I tried Neutrogena to Pro-Active and none of those treatments worked for me. I wasted hundreds of dollars and Equate is inexpensive and dependable. It helped clear up my acne and get rid of scars too! It works fast!

Cons:

Does act like bleach. Be careful with clothes and bedding! It dries my skin too so to help prevent that I put lotion on before applying the medication and it helps keep my skin moist!

If you need a cheap,effective treatment for acne. I would definately recommend this.
