Pros:

Works very well for what is supposed to do. Does not dry out skin.

Cons:

A little pricey, but hey, beauty aint free.

This stuff work great. One when I wake up, one after school. This stuff will work for you as long as it is used with other treatments. Also useful for trips or sleepovers where you can just stick one or two packets in your pocket and use it for later. Or when you have a particuarly bad acne day at school, you can go into the bathroom and use one. Use other meds, like dan kern's stuff and some 10% spot treatment, and some .5% Oxy Sailyic Pads

Pros:

easy to use, no irritation at all, really really works..

Cons:

a little hard to find.. :(

this product really works...my acne is about 99.9% cleared but i was still getting stubborn breakouts but i find that bp creams 5% are too strong and irritating so i thought that the pads would rememdy that..TA DA!! not only do they work but the grooved pads help to gently exfoliate my face daily...gotta luv that! i luv that they have bp as opposed to the usual sal acid which does nuthin for my skin..i highly recommend this product

Pros:

After years of salicylic acid products doing very little to clear my adult acne I found the Power Pads. I never liked other benzoyl peroxide products as they contained a min. of 5%. These are great - easy to use and work without tearing up my face.

Cons:

Only one local drug store carries it.

It is worth the trip to purchase them and when I go I buy every box on the shelf!!!!

Pros:

Visibly reduces acne in one night. very easy to use. Saves me a lot of time and trouble.

Cons:

Because they're benzoyl peroxide, they might turn your clothes orange, but i havent noticed anything yet. Im just really careful about using them.

Love this product, the only thing ive found that will visibly reduce acne in one night and rapidly over a few days. I use these wipes after a makeup removing cloth and start to break out when i dont use them. I started using them when i ran out of proactiv and found that they worked really well. Now i use these on the nights i dont use proactiv and the combination has really helped my skin clear up.

Pros:

A great BP treatment to take on your travels.

Cons:

Expensive, a lot of packaging but if used just for travel, that is actually a plus.

Not feasible for everyday use. I use either the Neutrogena On The Spot or Cleanser/Mask w/ 3% BP for everyday. But when I travel, these are a godsend. You can get a full day's use out of each pad if you wrap it in plastic.
