Pros:

It works excellent! The stench is from the sayticlic acid which smells like eggs :(. i leave on for 15 min and it works better

Cons:

Overnight treatment wipes on my bed, since I roll around alot and it has little result.

Overal it is very good best ive ever tried that hasent burnt my skin, it has just enough benzoil peroxide in the whole kit and excellent satilic acid content in the mask

Pros:

*Perfect for night time application
*Reduces redness and most blemishes
*Evens out the skin tone

Cons:

*It could have a nicer scent to it, but who cares, at least it works!

I have been using this product for over a year now, and it works great! It seems to even out my skin tone, and reduce and correct any unwanted blemishesacne spots. It hardens at first, leaving no residue on your face in the end!

Pros:

It reduces redness of pimples and dries them up quite nicely.

It does work really well to reduce the redness of a pimple and dry it up. It's good as a spot treatment as well.

Pros:

-clears redness/ smoothes out complexion
-reduces APPEARANCE of pimples

Cons:

-doesn't help clear severe acne areas
-using toner after washing away this product will make your face unimaginably stinky

The rest of the Proactiv Solution was pretty ineffective in terms of clearing my acne but this product worked very well. The only thing I've noticed is that it doesn't clear away pimples that are starting to form, it only takes away the redness around the clogged pore. I haven't noticed any dry skin or irritation after using this product like some people have mentioned... but that may be due to the fact that I have really oily skin.

Pros:

Reduces redness slightly.
Slightly being a key word.
It smells good, though.

Cons:

When used overnight as a mask, I saw no results. When used for 10 minutes as directed on the bottle, the only results I saw were minimizing redness. Also, it dried out my skin and can be difficult to remove.

It doesn't get rid of acne/pimples/zits/whatever-you'd-like-to-call-them.

Pros:

-It shrinks pimples when used as a spot treatment.

Cons:

-It dries out my skin so that I can't even use concealer the next day.
-It doesn't do anything when I use it as a mask.

I wish I could say that I liked this stuff, because it came free with my Proactiv system. It does not work for me. If I use it as a spot treatment, the pimple may seem a little bit smaller the next day, but it will be so flaky that I cannot use any concealer to cover up the pimple (which is still there). If your skin is oily, I bet it would work. If you don't use concealer, I say go for it! You have nothing to lose.

It smoothed my skin very well. Making it feel refreshed.

Cons:

Not enough of the product

Great for suddent pimples to help reduce redness by morning. I reccomend using it right before you go to sleep. Didn't really clear up my acne fully though. Just sudden big pimples
