Pros:

it works, minimizes size and redness

Cons:

you can't wear too much when you go out because you can tell by the white parts that stay on your face.

Use it. I put it on.. and every time I use it my pimples go down pretty well. Really works on me... and not much works for me, but I would recommend people try it. :)

Pros:

an overall AMAZING product! honestly, i was pretty iffy about using this. i'v used soo many acne products already, including proactive, otcs, and other pricey stuff. i've also been to dermotologists. after 1 use i could see a difference. :D

Cons:

drying. i had to reduce application to only at night, and infrequent spot treatment in am if necessary. must moisturize!! i use olay oil-free moistuizer, then persa, and more lotion from a korean skin care line.

try it!

Pros:

While I could still use this without allergic reactions, this product was great. It's the only thing that got rid of all the small bumps that were covering my forehead and basically the only product that gave me smooth skin. Works very quickly, too.

Cons:

Dries out skin, causes redness and apparently I've become allergic to it early this year, because when I started taking nasal medication the bumps came back, but using this product made me get horrible reactions and I can't use it anymore.

If you're not allergic to it and you don't overuse it, it's a brilliant product, and for some (like me) the only real solution to clear skin. Problem is that it's very strong and if you're allergic to it (also like me), you have to give up on it. This product is definitely worth trying, just be prepared for the possibility that it will cause a negative reaction to your skin (large scaly patches of redness).

Pros:

Nothing really

Cons:

Makes small zits bigger

I think that it may be too highly concentrated in benzoyl peroxide that it irritates my skin a little too much. I put it on a small zit that was forming and now it's huge haha. It sucks. I'll be sure not to use this stuff anymore. It's all good it wasn't expensive. Maybe this stuff just isn't for me.

Pros:

None

Cons:

causes redness and itching when I woke up the next morning it affected my cheeks but does not improve my skin in anyway when apply elsewhere.

I used this product for one week straight trying to get rid of my pimples but doesnt work until I apply it on my cheeks the redness starts to appear. This product really stinks. Sad to say is I used to be a fan of clean and clear until I used this product. The old products were better but not this crap. I even called the company and they couldnt give me any advice in getting rid of my problem except they told me to call my doctor.

Pros:

- Dries out pimples FAST

Cons:

Maybe a little drying if overused, but other than that NONE

Buy it. Ive tried other products, proactiv ect and they didnt work! This is the only spot treatment that has worked for me for years :)

Pros:

I love this product. My face is smooth, I don't remember having skin like this in years. I can feel confident that I will not wake up with a huge zit on my face, or feel down because my skin does not look like everyone else's. I will continue to use.

When a product does what it says, I have no complaints. Can be drying- use moisturizer, and a dab will do wonders.

Pros:

Got rid of my repeating pimples all over my face, really fast and kept them away

Cons:

My skin was a little dry, but nothing a moisterizer can't fix :)

I've used over 10 products for my bad acne, and this is the only one that has ever worked. :)

Pros:

I love this product. If applied regularly, it clears up zits within 4 days. More serious pimples take about a week to clear up.

Cons:

My skin did become a little dry, but nothing that a moisturizer can't fix.

This is definitely a product worth trying. Start with using it just at night. If you have a breakout, use it during the day as well.
