Pros:

Gets rid of forming acne and existing acne. Lightens Scars. Really helps on giant under the skin zits.

Cons:

Drys out skin, as stated

It gets rid of basically all your acne, you may still have a few bumps but nothing completely gets rid of ALL your acne. I have moderate acne i used this before but when i started using epiduo i broke out with cystic zits I stopped that and started this got rid of my cystic zits in two days. There is no IB with this. I love it. You do need a moisturizer. I use cocoa butter and St. Ives vitamin E lotion.

Pros:

Reduced the size of my zit slightly

Cons:

Made the areas I applied it very red and irritated
Good price
Not good for people with even slightly sensitive skin

I had heard good things on here about BP being a good spot treatment so I thought I would try it. I only get a few zits here and there but they are usually big and gross so I wanted to try something new. My advice is to make sure your skin won't react poorly to this strong of a product. I know I have slightly sensitive skin but I thought it would be ok. It burned my skin literally and made it very red and did nothing for the zit itself. I wouldn't self perscribe this stuff, ask a derm first. Be careful. I recommonend using apple cider vinegar for acne. I didn't believe it either, but I tried it and my face has cleared up a great deal... only downside... it smells and can take a little while to work. If you are patient and stick to it, it really does work and it is super inexpensive.

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:

Dries up pimples (especially whiteheads) very quickly. It took about two days of three applications throughout each day to rid my face of it's current and most visible blemishes.

Cons:

Burns a little, but not too badly. Doesn't get rid of bumps beneath the skin, rather, it deals with them once they've surfaced.

Works well on whiteheads, with fast results.

Pros:

This is the only thing that has actually worked for my skin!!! My pimples are almost gone, and it's my first week using it!!!! I swear, it seems to have even cleared away some of my old acne scars too!!!!

Cons:

My skin slightly dries out when using it, and if you use to much, it will leave a slight white residue.......

I am so happy I found this stuff!!!! I have spent so much money on acne products, and found this little miracle for less than five bucks!!! Everyone noticed my acne clear away within a week!!! And although it doesn't say anything about clearing old acne scars away, I swear it has faded mine away!!! Highly recommend this product.......

Pros:

Dries painful and really bad looking pimples. It works from the first application!

Cons:

Dries skin and if you touch pimples before applying can leave scars that will not dissapear so easily.

I have almost every treatment available in the local market, but after trying this one. I ´ll stay with it. I had bad looking pimples resulting from stress at work, I used to have nice skin, imagine how bad I felt about everyone getting so close and asking what was the matter. I tried to hide with my hair, so it got worst. Because of my desparation I started trying everything you can imagine. I even got monthly money assigned for "investigation". I decided to invest some more money in this one, worth it because it works it made in just a couple of days more than any other product i tried before!!!
