Pros:

this product is AMAZING!
-clears acne overnight
-did NOT dry up my skin which is odd because the persa gel 5 did dry up my skin

Cons:

-is not available in canada

try it! I originally bought persa gel 5 because I live in Canada and we only have that here. But then I went on a trip to New York and decided to try persa gel 10. Persa gel 5 worked, but slowly. The first night i tried Persa gel 10, I saw a huge difference! I use: Clean & Clear Persa Gel 10 at night Wash my face with Clean & Clear Morning Burst (orange bottle) moisturize with Aveeno ultra calming moisturizer with spf 15 I've been doing this for about 3 days and have seen a HUGE improvement!

Buy this product because it works on the first day you try it so your acne would most likely be gone on the first week you buy it just like my experience!!!!! <3

Pros:

- Best absorption
- Most effective
- Best consistency

Cons:

- More expensive than drug store brands

I've tried a few drug store brand 10 % benzoyl peroxides, and this is by far the best. Most other brands are runny and sit atop your skin. They feel diluted. This is thick and rich, yet it absorbs the best out of all BP gels. I feel like it does a better job at attacking acne too, as it dries out my skin more than other BPs. The only con is that it costs sometimes double the drug store brands.

Pros:

this product is for PERFECTION. It works well even for cystic acne.

Cons:

this item is too strong to use it for small acne, and it might irritate the skin severely if used on the area around the lips. Use it only on severe skin problems.

I have a cystic acne located on my nose and I had two surgical removals done by plastic surgeon. The acne did not go away. Used all types of prescribed products by dermatologists(medications containing 4% salicylic acid and other chemicals) and it didn't work. After trying all these treatments, I was hopeless and purchased this product without any expectations. I used it 4 nights in a row and my acne went away. I decided to share my experience so that people who might have same problem with me, can gain from my experience. I purchased this product from harristeeter but you can also find this through other grocery stores. It is well worth the price.

Pros:

- reduces the size of my acne
- actually works

Cons:

- dries my skin(usually occurs cause bp is at 10%) always moisturize[:
- does leave white residue behind
- pricey/: but it last at least a month and a half

I've tried MANY spot treatments and products probably more than $200 worth to the point I went crazy to find at least help to my annoying acne when I finally saw this in my older sisters bathroom. she BARELY have any acne or pimples what-so-ever but when it does come up she uses this, so I stole this from her(: like any other products I thought this wouldn't work BUT I was wrong! I love how this can minimize the size of my annoying bump overnight(recommended) I still do get new ones here and there but that's because of the countless numbers of cleansers I'm trying out right now. when I do get those bumps, I use this and BAM! less than 3 days it's gone. idk if it bleaches my pillows but I love this product(: give it a try, you'll be amazed

Pros:

Helps bring pimples that are deep in the skin to a head.
Works on face back and chest acne
Good for use on popped pimple
Doesn't sting
Helps remove acne and acne scars

Cons:

It can leave a white reside, but when used at night its not a problem

I am 15 years old and used to have moderate acne but with the help of this I would now say I have light acne. I am going to a school dance and when I was going dress shopping I noticed I had about 25 pimples on my chest. Every night I applied this stuff on my chest and face for a week. Now my skin is 80% clear!!! This stuff was my last resort to clear my acne so I look good for the dance and it worked :) I used it as a spot treatment on all my pimples including chest ones. It didn't bleach my shirt towels or sheets. It can be drying but the flakyness is what helps remove acne. If my face got really dry I would moisturize my face first then apply the treatment and in the morning use a wash cloth to get the dead skin off. Bottom line this stuff saved me

Pros:

-Works fast
-Gentle scent

Cons:

-Can leave a white powdery look if over applied.

It's all about your skin type. This will work for some better than others, or may not work at all. I bought it, left, and came back home and I noticed a heavy reduction in the redness of my acne.

Pros:

+Clears Pimples
+Reduces Redness
+ Smooths skin texture
+Stops new pimples from forming

Cons:

-Very drying
-White residue

I bought this product, because I needed something fast. I am always skeptic of clean and clear products for some reason, but let me tell you. THIS STUFF WORKS! My problem areas were on my forehead and I get oily, so when I applied this for a week, I could see a difference. It's been about 4 weeks and all my pimples are gone. I don't have any more acne on my forehead at all. I applied it every night before I went to bed, and my skin never became tolerant to it, so it worked. it's still working. However, I had light acne, so I don't know how this would work for cystic acne, but you can still try it! :) Good luck!
