Pros:

clears acne right away

Cons:

made my face red and itchy for a few hours after i applied it

it works... this ingredient has always worked for me except my skin is a little bit sensitive to it.. i help it by only using it every other day and it still does the trick. i don't even need to apply make up anymore to cover any blemishes.. because there arent any!

Pros:

Amazing zit zaper, really help clear up my skin!

Cons:

Dries out your skin really badly, but with help of a good mouisterizer you won't have that problem.

Although I have only been using Persa-Gel for 10 day's it has really made a huge improvement on my skin. 10 day's ago my face was broken out and had big pimples all over, my main problem was the right side of my face which I hadnt seen clear for a good year. After using this with a good cleanser and mouisterizer my skin was amazing, and still is! I use it everyday morning and night. I have never been happier with my skin and Persa-Gel is the thing to thank the most.

Pros:

Kills acne bacteria better than any other cream out there

Cons:

Bleaches dyed fabrics, requires a moisturizer

This product kills acne bacteria better than anything else I've used, and I've tried everything from Proactiv to prescription medicines. It clears pimples up quickly and prevents most pimples from even forming in the first place. If you use it over Alpha Hydrox Cream it "spreads" better. Be sure to use a moisturizer afterward, too. I've used it as part of my own modified regimen for three years now, and my skin is clear.

Pros:

easy to apply, smooth, unscented,

Cons:

doesn't work on blackheads, peroxide makes your skin susceptible to burning,

I love this product! It works great to dry up oil on your skin, and reduces redness and swelling in about a day. I have not seen any effect on blackheads however. I put it on every night before i sleep.

Pros:

Kills zits

Cons:

Dries your face out

I had a zit developing, the kind you know you're gonna have to live with for weeks in disgust... I got the 5% kind of this cream, put it on that night (after using a cleanser) and some moisturizer, the next day it was gone! Gone I tell you! Didn't really help with blackheads, whiteheads or acne scars though.

Pros:

Clears up pimples within 2-3 days.

Cons:

Can dry the skin.

A staple product for anyone who is desperate to fight off acne. Due to the 10% concentration of benzoyl peroxide, however, it can be irritating or too drying for those with sensitive skin. It never hurts to give it a try, though.

This is the only product I have found that really does work. Most people say you only need to use it for pimples, but I use it on zits too. I put it pretty much all over my face. Your face will sometimes feel a little dry after using this. There are a few things that I don't like about this product. One is the fact that it is somewhat hard to remove. I find the easiest thing is to apply it at night. In the morning, take a shower and it will easily come off. The second thing is it has bleached towels and sheets/pillows. I can't buy any new towels or sheets, because they will just get ruined. Despite these two things, I would definitely recommend this product, because it works unlike a lot of other acne medications out there.
