Pros:

It works for my moderate acne with consistent use.

Cons:

EXPENSIVE and leaves a white film.

After finding Dan's website about a year or two ago, I began using a modified version of his system. I use eye makeup remover to gently remove *all* my makeup each night before bed then applied the Neutrogena product generously over my face. It leaves a white film but gets the job done and is in an easy to use package (tube sits on the cap so I know I am getting all of the product out). If I skip it for a night or two the blemishes re-appear, so I must use it every night. This is extremely frustrating because I am on a tight budget and this stuff is expensive, but convenient (pick up at the local Wal-Mart). Today for the first time I ordered Dan's version and I will use it for a year or two and then write a review on it. I read some of the reviews people have written and I hope that it works better than the Neutrogena for me as well. I'd rather give my business to this website since it is less expensive for Dan's version.

Pros:

It really drys out the pimple slowly removing it. It has not caused any reaction to my skin though mine is a very sensitive. I used to have red to brown marks on my face because of my pimples.With time it reduced the blemish on my face.

Cons:

It causes slight drying , which can be taken care of by using moisturiiser or using a scrub daily

It is excellent if you are looking for a long term effect. The 3 months I have been using it. My acne outbreak has reduced so much.

Pros:

Gets the job done but takes a while.

Cons:

In the begining leaves skin very flakey and if it doesnt like you it will give you a reaction

Well, it's good i use it daily but it's something that if you're looking for an overnight miricle it may or may not work. For the first month or so it makes your skin very sensitive dry flakey and red. But it works on pimples that spring up it's okay. NEVER pick at a pimple and then use this or put it on an open pimple. It will sting. A lot. A lot a lot a lot. I use it and hope for the best.

Pros:

takes irritation and redness levels way down
makes pimples smaller

Cons:

may dry face over time of use. -use a mosturizer, simply!

i had very bad acne over the summer. all along my law line. cheecks, chin, sides of face. big -not small, red, irritated-looking pimples. i was using clearasil forever and it never did anything. i thought i had to use stuff that was harsh and "tough" so my acne could be "washed" away, but over the summer i actually came here and heard about the 2.5 ben over 10%. i was intrigued and found this product as a substitute for one of the regimen steps. ive never used neutrogena before, just always clearisil. so, i bought this and neutrogenas acne wash and BAM! big difference after a week with noticible improvment everyday. i had scars on my face from always messing with them, but this made my scars vanish. so for me after a week i was all clear. youll see results in as little as over night! this product is great. get it! you wont be disappointed. i love my face now! and can go out without make up if i wish i dont have to worry about what pipmle i have to cover with my make up or whatn

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:

It glides over my skin evenly.
Works FAST! FAST! FAST!
Durable.

Cons:

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

Takes time to fully get rid of the pimple and dries out the skin fast
