Pros:

Cleared my acne to a tolerable degree.

Cons:

Still get acne, i'd say about half of what i got before, Redness (racoon eyes), peeling for about the first 4 days, very, very sensative to sun.

Works better for those with inflamitory acne or skin cell growth problems ( i on the other hand just have extremely oily skin), It made going out a bit easier but still got a fait bit of acne. Improvement is very slow. Used it for a little over 4 months

Pros:

Takes away pimple fast, noticeable results

Cons:

flakiness when used, scab

You'll notice results pretty fast, each day the pimple gets smaller and will disappear soon, but right now i have a small red mark where the pimple used to be and i hope it goes away soon

Pros:

-Works really well with consistent use

Cons:

-Dries out skin
-Causes more breakouts in the first few initial weeks

If you stick to using it every night, then it will work. If you forget to put it on for a week, you pretty much need to start again. Get a good moisturizer ( I use Cetaphil wash and moisturizer) because you will get very dry skin. Sun Screen is important if you're in the sun. I also use in partner with Hydrophase Solugel, which I use for the mornings. Keep at it, my skin cleared right up until I stopped using it.

Pros:

Inexpensive, only needs to be applied at night-time, seems effective.

Cons:

There is an initial break-out/flare-up which is harsh.
Dries out your skin and makes it flake at first, but only for a week or so.

Definitely worth trying.

Pros:

I have faith in this product for some reason, the scars are going away, my face looks cleaner and the pimples I am getting now are very, very small

Cons:

Initial breakout, pimples in old clean surfaces of my face, flaky skin and dryness

I have been using it for 7 weeks now. Its kind of working but you never know with this. Some weeks I am very well and some weeks my face is a mess. I trust this product because of the reviews and I will tell you how is it after 10 weeks. (It is where I can see major results)

Pros:

makes pimples smaller

Cons:

drys skin and burns face

I've used this product for 4 months (which is more than the 8 week cycle) that people say is the amount of time needed to get this product working. Still got acne, along with really dry peeling skin.

Pros:

-Reduces size of acne
-Clears away some acne

Cons:

-When one spot of acne clears another usually grows bigger
-Face is tight in the morning
-Small burn sometimes, feels like iodine on a cut(not that painful)

It works good, better than all over the counter drugs I've used. You'll need a face wash to wash your face before you out it on and after to take it off.
