Pros:

Works quickly, no smell, clears up skin

Cons:

Dries out skin a lot. Even with moisturizer, my skin looked a little scaly

I broke out and reached the lowest point of my skin quality. I was so incredibly depressed and I didn't even want to talk to people and I'd cover up my mouth when I spoke so people wouldn't look at my chin. I started using this and within 2 days I saw results; the pimples were slowly fading away. Within a week, my skin was noticeably smoother with very few bumps. It dried out my skin like crazy, but my skin became a little used to its drying nature, so it's not as bad anymore. Just try it- you have asolutely nothing to lose!

Pros:

Quickly reduces pimples as long as you have it on

Cons:

Does not prevent new pimples

The first couple times it REALLY drys up your skin, but when your skin gets used to it dry skin will no longer be an issue. For best results, use over night.

Pros:

Shrinks the pimple quite a bit after an hour within applying it, and by the next morning my acne all over my face is pretty much gone. Helps with oily skin.

Cons:

MAY dry your skin out, it doesnt for me me, but i have very oily skin. Leaves a flaky patch when you wake up in the morning, but if you just wash your face, it'll be gone.

This is my "desert island" if anything is. Its my holy grail product and I would recommend it to anyone who hates acne! I'm 13 and i had pretty bad acne... Ive used Mario Bedescu, Dermalogica, Neutrogena, Zeno, Clean & Clear, and this is the one thing i'm always going back to!

Pros:

Clears giant, annoying pimples quick! Extremely effective when used as spot treatment! Cheap and a fantastic investment!

Cons:

None!

I have tried numerous products and this is the ONLY over the counter that has worked for me. If you are frustrated with products that just don't work, I highly recommend giving this a shot! :)

Pros:

clears up bumps in less than two days
i see a major difference, it shrinks the bump very quickly

Cons:

dries skin, leaves white residue

it's really helpful for big pimples, or small groups of bumps.... i usually put the gel on my face at night or if i'm staying inside, just a little on the bump

Pros:

dirt Cheap& works surprisingly well.

Cons:

May dry up skin

I've used tazorac,retin a,proactiv,neutrogena, with ok results.Just started using this 3 wks ago & my pimples are gone. I have mild to moderate acne. i use purpose cleanser,cetaphil lotion and purpose suncreen spf15, best combination of products. works wonders for me. this bp gel is unscented,leaves skin a litle white. I apply cetaphil lotion around the corners of my mouth,nose,eyes bfore applying bp,to reduce dryness and redness. works very well. I'm psyched about this hope it continues to work for me as my skin tends to get use to meds quickly. i'll update in 2 months.

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.
