Pros:

It seems to work.

Cons:

Unpleasant smell and quite pricey for the amount.

I've only used it for 2 weeks, along with my boyfriend. We already finished one box and on our second box. It only comes with 28 pads along with a price tag of $7.99. If I can recall, we have already finished a box and halfway with our other. On the bright side, my boyfriend agrees that it is working, but mostly it is convenient. As of me, I have to agree with him. My skin seems to be clearing up. By the way, the smell is not too pleasant.

Pros:

Best acne product ever, even better than ProActiv! I had a bad case of acne and it completely cleared my blackheads and whiteheads and scars.

Cons:

Discontinued

Bring this product back, seems like they always get rid of the best thing that works. Tsk tsk

Pros:

clears up and prevents acne, big pad, individually rapped

Cons:

expensive for only 14 days worth, when you moisturize it clumps up and looks like you have flaky skin, can be drying for those with drier skin, smell can be strong

The thing is, it works just as well as dan's bp treatment, except the fact that it clumps when you moisturize or wear makeup. Also, gels/creams are better than pads because you can see where you are going and know how much meds you are putting on your face. i would say if you were going to use either or, use a 2.5 bp gel or cream :) The only con about using the gel/cream is that it takes several minutes to rub in.

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!!!!
