Pros:

Definitely got rid of a bunch of my acne. Works really fast.

Cons:

Can be very drying & sometimes leaves a white film. Pimples tend to show up (for me) if discontinued... so just keep using it!

Used it on a pimple that I felt was about to surface (that painful kind) & it didn't even show up the next day =)

Pros:

gets rid of zits SO QUICKLY. for those big, annoying ones: sometimes overnight!

Cons:

drying and irritating to the skin

It works really well to zap away pimples, but does make your skin dry, flaky, peely, etc. But anything with BP does that.

Pros:

Gets rid of those irritating pimples

Cons:

I was only using it for about two days and then my skin got super dry and flaky and it stayed like that for a whole week! Even when i used a moisturizer i could still see all the skin flakes it caused.

Works Well, but it makes your skin super dry and flaky

Pros:

Cleared up all pimples within one week of usage.

Cons:

Makes my skin feel a little sticky but feels better once it dries; Is very drying to skin.

This works great! I had been using Acne Free and I swear it was causing MORE pimples. I switched to this product and after one week, my skin is totally clear. It can be very drying, so I use thick moisturizer with it and exfoliate 3 times a week. My skin feels great. Would definitely recommend it.

Pros:

Clears up small pimples fast.

Cons:

Dries out your skin, Might irritate skin if you have sensative skin. Smells like glue.

ive purchaed this just to try it it out on a small pimple that i had on my face. It clear it up in a few days. This is powerful stuff and it will dry out your skin like crazy but you can just use a Moistruizer to clear up your face. i use Biore as a moistruizer.

Pros:

Effective tool, helping to both reduce acne immediately over night as well as preventing future breakouts.
Creates a high turnover of skin cells, which helps with the natrual smoothing of skin.

Cons:

Skin will become dry, especially in the colder winter months but a solid moisturizer, that is non-condegemic and light, will aid those worrying about suh an effect.

This is an extremely effective product, and I feel as though I should clear up some misuderstandings and misconceptions. Firstly, acne that you recieve in the second or third week of use, will often by acne that is inevitable and unpreventable, because of prior skin treatment. Secondly, the skin will more than likely experience ups and downs, but the skin will consistently be moving in a positive direction( less blemishes and issues). Thirdly, this product has no affect on acne scars. The blemish left by a declining pimpe may be mistaken as a "scar" but is merely a step in he healing process. This product will not create any new scars, but will help to prevent and settle the users skin.
