Pros:

It's cheap.
Enlarged pores shrank and had visibly smoother skin after just one use.
It helps with hormonal/cystic acne, reduces scarring and even helps dry up those stubborn spots that never come to a head.

Cons:

It burns my very sensitive skin & makes my skin very red after use-I usually put a thin layer on clean dry skin a few times a week. I wash it off when the tingling stops then allow the redness to subside before I apply toner & moisturise.
It's opaque white, with a slighty gritty texture, & is quite oily so cannot be worn under or over makeup.
Can be hard to get hold of.
Small tin but it's dirt cheap & a little goes a long way!
Don't use it everyday as it isn't as effective & it

Everyone's skin's different but It's literally THE ONLY THING that I've found that helps calm down my hormonal acne prone skin, helps to dry up existing or new spots, shrinks my oily enlarged pores, and smooths my scarred skin. Not even anything on prescription has worked as well for me as this has. For the price, It's definitely worth a try!

Finally found a product that actually works
I have been mixing this product with unrefined coconut oil for less than a month and I absolutely LOVE the results. I would recommend this product to anyone.

Pros:

I found it tightened my pores - zapped zits and cleaned up the yellow heads. Excellent product. I am over 50 and now have wrinkles and zits, this seems to tighten my skin and envigorates it.

Cons:

IT DOES Sting/ burn and tingle for about 1/2 hour.It smells like sulfur (one of the ingredients).It makes my eyes water.It is thick and white and hard to spread and remove. I use it all over once a week and spot treat the rest of the time. I do not use it at night as it gets all over. I put it on when I have an hour or two of privacy (then go relax) AFTER to get it off I use plain vegetable oil and tissues, then GENTLY wash with mild unscented Dove bar soap. WORTH THE TROUBLE.

It is not for sale in Canada as far as I can see, it used to be (35 years ago) at the drugstore in brown glass jars with a green lid. I used it as a teenager and it worked super then and I searched for it for years - Found it on Ebay - cheap and was EXACTLY the same as it was all those years ago. Im a 50 year old with menopause zits and sensitive skin, this stuff is yuky to work with - but it sure makes my skin nice - Some PEELING IS TO BE EXPECTED in the first few weeks of treatments. I even use it on my neck, upper chest, and all over my face. I think it is sort of a chemical peel, it somehow renews my skin. I DO NOT EXFOLIATE BEFORE OR AFTER , I TRIED THAT ONCE and it was HORRIBLE, damn near took my hide off! Use caution if first trying it... GOOD LUCK

Pros:

- clears acne and pimples fast
- can feel its working
- small and portable container
- inexpensive
- i have tried to continue applying this on my dark-ish coloured pimple scars, after a few days the scars started peeling a little. When it starts coming off naturally, I peeled it off and the dark scar became so much lighter if not completely disappear

Cons:

- the smell is somewhat from the sulphur it contains, but you'll get used to it
- stays white when applied, shouldn't use it too much if you're going out

Highly recommend this to those who have mild acne breakouts

Pros:

Works great, clears pimples, blemishes, evens skin tone.. Clears up pimples very fast I've noticed a big pimple on my forehead and used nixoderm on it fr about 20 kins while I got ready for school noticed that some of the soreness had went down. It also got smaller so great product you do not gave to use it all the time either a couple of nights out of the week is fine..takes a while to run out of this stuff too

Cons:

I don't mind the cons but there are pros & cons to everything, the smell doesn't bother me, it leaves your face white so you can't go out in public to run errands or whatever with it on..unless you want to look like a ghost, wipes off easily sometimes I find myself applying more than once, but that's ok. Opening the container is kinda tricky I recommend closing it but not all the way just enough so you do not have to struggle..

Great product found it in a hair store totally unexpected I was getting some hair grease and a brush and saw it at the counter decided what the hell and I bought it And ever since then I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT... =}

I've had acne for 4 years. On each cheek I had at least 40 pimples varying from cysts, blackheads, whiteheads. in a little bit over 40 days 80% of that was gone because I used Nixoderm. 80% of fours years worth of dark hyperpigmentatjon and pimples was gone in over a month. The absolute best thing I've ever used! I use it as a topical alongside my Proactiv and it works wonderfully. I definitely recommend this.

Pros:

Clears face fast, after only two days am clear. i would cry with joy!!!!

Cons:

I don't mind the cons, smells a bit and tingles your face (but i find this resuring its getting to work.

It's the only thing that has cleared my face up. I have suffered acne since i had a miscarrage 2 years ago and i have hated my complextion since. I have been given so many medications for my face from the doctor, i had almost give up hope of getting my old complextion back. I notice nixoderm, when a friend from Tanzania said it was the only thing that cleared his face (he manged to get nixoderm from a Afican store in London). It works a treat, best ever! I have only been using it at night but the results is clear, clear, and clear face. So HAPPY!!!!

Pros:

Cheap
Effective
Shrinks cysts

Cons:

A little drying

Whenever I feel a cyst or spot coming up, I just throw this on and it either gets rid of it, or shrinks it. I leave it on for as long as I can. You look a bit daft walking around with white stuff on your face so you can't really go out in public with it on :P It was more effective at blasting spots than the BP I had been using. Give it a go!
