Pros:

somewhat lessens acne

Cons:

works ok, but not enough
more hype than results

works better than some, but better off sticking to cheaper products that work better with less hype

Pros:

It works for the first few months.

Cons:

After your skin gets used to it, it stops working. Also makes your skin quite oily if used twice a day.

I usually switch between two different products. One is Proactiv and this formula. That way my skin doesn't get used to just one product.

Pros:

Very light,easy absorbed lotion. Doesn't irritate my skin.Easy to apply and helps reduce blemishes. I use it with the acne.org regime and my skin looks great!

Cons:

Smell is quite strong and also its expensive and the packaging isn't that great.

Good 2.5% BP product,although a little expensive for what it is.

Pros:

After a month or two you get lots of complements about your clear skin. Pretty easy to use and not really expensive.

Cons:

You have to use it for a while, not just a week or two and then dump it.

It does take a month or more but once you've used it for that long i think it really does the trick. My face has fully cleared up and the pimples are not coming back while I still use this product. I have tried so many products, even really flashy expensive skin treatment lines and this has been the best by far. Will not ever go back to other products.
