Pros:

Works fast and prevents breakouts

Cons:

None

I don't have severe acne, only several pimples that come up every now and then. I use it before bed and it's completely gone the next day. I only use it when I need it. It works great for me!

Pros:

gets rid of small zits quickly, easy to use

Cons:

drys out skin, gave me a rash on my chin

This product is good if you don't break out a lot, and for small zits but don't use it too much or it will dry out your skin and cause it to flake

Pros:

It works if used correctly!

Cons:

it can make problems worse if used incorrectly including causing peeling skin, scars and redness

Use sparingly, dab a bit, then *do not* re-apply for 8 hours. The last few times I've felt a new pimple coming in, I applied a small dot right on the spot. After it soaked in I applied a little califlora calendula gel to combat the skin sensitivity. Overnight my skin looked significantly better, almost no redness and it reduced overall size to a pinpoint--easily covered with makeup. I once applied too often and ended up with peeling skin, the skin from that spot is still healing...3 months later.

Pros:

no new pimples

Cons:

This cream leaves residue, which makes me put a lot of effort applying it. Very small and expensive.

This seems to be a good project, but it is pretty hard to apply. If this was a gel instead of a cream, I would love it so much better. It's pretty small and cost a bit much.

Pros:

It does not dry out my skin. It is sensitive enough for under the skin pimples. For me it's like love in a bottle.

Cons:

On some pimples it takes a whole to kick in but im not talking about more than 3 days.

This stuff really works. It doesn't clog pores and it clears acne. For me it's like love in a bottle.

Pros:

This stuff really works. No irritation because of being mild. I showed improvements in 2 days. It doesn't flake.

Cons:

the price for such a small amount but is worth it.

This is good and it works great. I have used it for about 3 weeks and my acne was sooo bad. On my way to the best skin ever.

Works FAST! FAST! FAST!

None so far, except
Tip: put on around skin, QUICKLY take Q-tip and GET. IT. OFF. surrounding areas or it will dry them out. Only leave on pimple (:
works perfectly if you follow that.

I love this! I just recently started using it (an hour ago) and it's already working really well, one of my bothersome pimples is already gone!!! I LOVE this product! :D
