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.

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 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.

I've used different acne meds for the last 10 years. This is the only one that will keep my face consistently clear. I use a pea-size amount every morning and night on my whole face.

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:

Works well. Driew up acne

Cons:

Ruins pillow cases. There's something in the jell that when it gets on a colored pillow case it acts like bleach. Ruined several pillow cases before I realized it was from this product. How do I contact the manufacturer?

Don't use before going to bed!
