Pros:

Cleared up my skin
gets rid of pimples and those annoying big bumps that hurt
works relatively fast on little pimples

Cons:

leaves a mark of the pimple. sort of like a scar that goes away after a while, but they tend to leave a 'brown' mark
using it too often (more than 2ce a day) leaves face red and often dry

This product has become a part of my daily skin care routine, and I have to say, it's one of the best acne products I've used. I was surprised to see how fast it worked when I first started using it (little pimples were 'gone' in about 2-3 days). But what I've noticed in the time that I've used it (and maybe this is just me), but when the pimples are 'gone' or the swelling has gone down, they leave a brown ish mark or scar, which takes a while (if ever) to disappear. This might just be me, because I have relatively white skin for an asian girl, and the marks it leaves are really noticeable on my white skin so it makes me angry. But overall, I'd say this works fairly well

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!
