Pros:

I love this particular BP simply because it is non-irritating where as other products (Clearasil, Persa-Gel, etc...) use 10% BP. This is 2.5%; however, it is just as effective in fighting acne. It smells great and it goes on pretty clear. Buy it!

Cons:

I wish it would go on a little more clearer, but that is not a big issue for me. I've never had harsh acne. Luckily it is very very mild, but this keeps me from getting any future pimples. I also with the tube was as big as Dan's BP. 4 oz perfect

I will not between BP's anymore. I have tried many different BP's and I love this one. I give it five stars. It is fast acting and it smells great. I wish it came in a bigger tube, but that is fine. I am willing to pay $4.97 for it at Wal-Mart. By the way people, go to Wal-Mart. I can't believe that your paying between 7 and 10 bucks for this stuff. It's only 5 bucks at Wal-Mart. Happy acne killing!

Cons:

Small tube :)

I rarely depend on miracle products but this works great! Hey it is worth a try. My skin isn't dry at all, it came back to normal. I clears blackheads around my nose area, and acne as well. I't amazing!! The tube last approximately for a month (I use it daily). I found it is important to let the skin dry before putting it on, and then wait again before moisturizer. My routine: 1.L'Oreal visibly clean - foaming cleanser and scrub 2.Neutrogena on the Spot 3.Olay all day moisture lotion (not greasy) Voila! :D Good luck guys ;*

Pros:

It works quickly to remove pimples and doesn't leave red spots on the skin, unlike other medications I've tried.

Cons:

The product is drying but very effective on my oily skin. The container is too small for the price, and I usually have to open the container with scissors to get the rest of the cream out when I'm running out.

I used Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne wash 2x a day and this product once-a-day at night.It cleared my skin in a little less than 2 months. I use the product consistently once a day everyday and haven't gotten a serious zit since.

Pros:

-clears up smaller pimples quickly

Cons:

-the first time i used it it burned a little bit, but thats no biggie

I am a 14 year old girl who has struggled with what i think was moderate acne for a few years. This has been the only thing that worked ! I have only used it for four days (once a day i apply it at night to the problem areas) and my forehead small white pimples have reduced size dramatically and some have dissapeared. On my chin i had 2 pimples which i usually only get deepish ones there, and those 2 cleared up. The deepish- skin colored ones have sort of reduced size, those are a bit harder. For some reason i have always stayed away from bp, and tried many different salicylic acid products, which never worked for me! I am so happy i found this stuff! (just be careful to not use it too much or it CAN make your skin worse...it says 1-3 times a day if your work up to 3, but i am sticking to once and the occasional twice. ) Good luck everyone !
