Pros:

This is a great product !! It really works, and it works fast too. I don't have trouble applying it to my skin or removing it the next morning at all !!
I don't have anymore acne and my skin is flawless now.

Cons:

the pros definately surpass the cons

I used the one some of the reviewers here suggested, the one with the yellow label that says 'new formula' and is made in Malaysia. I definately did not have trouble removing it at all. Even a thin almost invisible layer of the cream over the acne does the trick the next morning and it is gone. My friend uses the one from India and has some trouble with it so she suggested I buy this one and compare it. I got it from Ebay, don't know where else has it though. Overall I am Very Very satisfied with this product. It is reasonably priced for something that seems will last a long long time and seem to work on many other skin problems besides acne/pimples. I am hooked on these old-world products that have lasted the test of time, some of these things are the real deal, Nixoderm is the real deal. So many fancy new products on the market with crazy prices try to take our money for products that don't work as well. Definately take a pause to see what our previous generations have been using.

Pros:

Seemed to reduce bumps at first

Cons:

Ended up creating more trouble with continued use.

This seemed to quickly reduce pretty big bumps on my skin that were beginning, but what ends up happening every time I use any product that contains sulfur is it ends up creating WORSE breakouts that last many weeks and end up scarring me. I believe this is what is referred to as "adhesion" on this site. It's almost like it ends up clogging the pore worse and worse until it is a hardened cyst like blemish instead of a normal blemish that would come to the surface after a few days. I had to discontinue use as a result.

Pros:

Inexpensive, dries skin out-which can clear up some blemishes (but Nixoderm dries out the skin too much)

Cons:

Burn's extremely, skin eventually start's to peel, stink's, dries skin out too much, constant redness like a light sunburn, does NOT make pimples/blemishes or scars/old mark's go away

I beared with it and really gave Nixoderm a fair trial of almost three week's. This product does MORE DAMAGE then good to the skin-I believe it can cause permanent damage by penetrating deeper and deeper into the skin the longer one use's it. This product may be cheap but it is STILL not worth buying. Anything that make's your face burn and hurt and peel constantly is not worth it-you may tell yourself that if it hurt's or burn's that it means it's working- NO -it does not mean that at all!! It means's it's damaging your skin, and maybe permanently! There are other item's out there that actually work that don't hurt and don't damage your skin-it just takes awhile to find what really work's for yourself-DIET and EXERCISE are the best to fight acne. I prchased mine off Ebay.

Pros:

hmm?

Cons:

so red! burns!

the problem is that i can't keep it on long enough to see if it works. it burns slightly when first put on, but when i take it off to see what its doing under there, the spots where i put it are bright red! i'm afraid to keep it on too long so i don't even know if it works. its also not really sold in the united states and the packaging is crap. i got it from ebay. its hard to get open and i received it all sticky on the outside. i must say though, i am EXTREMELY fair skinned, so that may be my problem. might work great for others.

Pros:

Nothing. It really works? are you kidding?
It might prevent itch if you have allergy skin.
But that's all.

Cons:

It doesn't work at all.
Most of acne cream actually give a difference even though it doesn't work. But this one, nothing.

90% of this reviews are written by the sellers of this product. BE CAREFUL. you might feel like "oh it's only 6 bucks, so I wanna try anyway." Yup, you've just wasted 6 bucks.

Pros:

Really cheap

Cons:

As Craig in London my skin has dried and cracked with big lumpy spots underneath. Also makes non acne skin surrounding area greasy and causes more acne.

Seems to work on severe acne but not troublesome sporadic and lighter acne.

Pros:

none at all.

Cons:

This stuff does not work. It only made my existing acne surface and look even more horrible than it did 2days before after I used it. This is not a miracle cream for acne sufferers. Dont be fooled you guys.

Although I hate how benzoyl peroxide dries out my skin, it is the only thing so far that contols my acne. But who wants to have extremely dry skin? Nixoderm may feel refreshing after it i son for a while, but does not clear or even control acne.

Pros:

-worked a little at first
-inexpensive

Cons:

-stings
-irritated my skin
-smells weird
-didn't really help my acne

Unlike other reviews here I'm not so impressed.I used it for a month and it seemed to work on a couple of biz zits at first but it had absolutely no effect in any small red pumps in my face.I also hate the smell and that its a thick paste which is hard to aplly ..
