Caused burning, redness and stinging within the first few hours of application. I appear to be allergic to 10% BP but not 2.5%. If you begin having any of these symptoms, I recommend discontinuing use!

Pros:

It does a good job clearing up existing pimples.

Cons:

Does not prevent new pimples from coming out. Dries the skin a little but you can solve that with some good skin moisturizer.

It's worth it for spot treatments but not for prevention.

Pros:

makes acne smaller the first use
cheap
brings to head

Cons:

doesnt fully get rid of pimple
dries white
drying
bleaches clothes and pillows

I decided to buy this after my face broke out into very serious acne.... i picked it up for 8.00 at my local drug store. The first night i used it my face became very dry and peely , but i was happy that my pimples were shrinking but it left weird red pitted marks on my face..... After the 4th week of use all the pimples it had shrunk came back again with a vengance.since im brown complexion i cannot use this in the day time because it leaves a white residue on my skin no matter how much i rub it in or use moisturizer. This may work for someone with the occasional break out , but for someone with real tough acne like cysts or anything bigger than a light pimple ...i wont suggest it.... i took this to my new derm and she basically shook her head and asked me did i want her to dispose of it for me,told me it would of never worked on my skin because it is also filled with cheap ingridients.... you get what you pay for.

Pros:

-Good Good price considering i've had it for about 7 months and theres still quitea bit left, but i havnt been using it that much.
-Doesnt smell wierd.

Cons:

Takes awhile for the pimple to clear up
-I feel like you feel the need to put more and more, because you dont feel the affect of accomplishment on the pimple.

I bought this item when i went to target, i had seen a couple youtube videos on it and I wanted to try it, so i bought it. Its good. It dries up that stuborn little pimple and then after about 3-4 days it'll go away.

Pros:

-Fast acting
-Good for spot treatment

Cons:

-Dries out skin

I'm a 27 year old male. For the past two years, my face has had more acne problems, and I've been left with some scars. I finally gave Persa Gel 10 a try, and a day later, I can already see good results. I get cystic type acne, and it has already made them smaller. Thanks, Clean & Clear!
