Pros:

It cleared up my acne right away and shrank some too.

Cons:

It left my face dry and patchy.

Use it if you wanna clear up your acne fast or improve your acne. School's starting soon so I wanted to give it a try and it works great!

Pros:

Works FAST!!! Amazing

Cons:

Dries out my skin...but i love it bc i normally have oily skin.

This is the only thing i use and my face looks great. I've tried everything ...proactive, panoxyl, retin-a micro, nuetrogena, and every other drugstore brand. This stuff works! I get compliments all the time

Pros:

I use the persa gel 5 (because 10% bp is considered a prescription in Canada) it worked on my cheek acne!! I tried everything spend 100 and 100 of dollars this is a miracle in a tube!!!

Cons:

dries the skin, NOT FOR SENSITIVE SKIN

If you have sensitive skin don't use this product.

Pros:

This product makes your acne visibly better in 1 - 2 days. It doesn't smell like other BP products.

Cons:

Dries out skin, has a sticky feeling on skin.

I love this product. I clears up my skin super fast. The only downside, as stated all over this page, is that it does dry out your skin. BP products have a tendency to do that but as long as you use a moisturizer you'll be fine. I use and olay moisturizer with this.

Pros:

Product cleared up my existing acne amazingly! I have tried most produts on the market, and even ProActiv didn't work for me. This cleared up my skin very quickly.

Cons:

The dryness factor. Of course I expected that with the BP but I really had to use a lot of moisturizers, esp because it is winter and my skin is already dry.

Clears up skin quickly, only downside is drying out of the skin.

Pros:

Clears acne very fast

Cons:

Dries up skin

Its a very good medication...I used it in one night, my pimples look smaller than ever. However, my skin dries up too easily and it sometimes is annoying. The other great thing: the price, I got this for $5.00 at Walgreens and its the best $5 I've spent.

Pros:

It works really well. I've been using this every day for about 9 years and it really helps. I apply it twice a day w/ no burning or redness or dryness. Wal-Mart now has a generic version that is cheaper and works just as well.

Cons:

It bleaches clothes and colored sheets, etc. Make sure you wash your hands after you use it and be careful when putting on shirts. Also you should probably have white sheets on your bed if you use it at bedtime. I've had many things get bleached.

Very effective and well worth the money. It works way better than the $20-a-tube prescription stuff I was using. I suppose it could make your skin sensitive at first but I've been using it for many years with no problems at all.

I've tried out A LOT of products and this is the first to actually work well and keep up with what is does. And considering its price, it is WELL worth it
