Terrible burning sensation, dry skin, worse than any other benzoyle peroxide product i've tried.

Pros:

Smells nice
Cheapish

Cons:

Burns
Drys out skin
Ineffective

I seriously doubt this product works as I've applied it to my face many times with no results. I just applied it to my face and applied dark spot corrector lotion over it and my face started burning, it feels worse than a sunburn. When I applied it earlier last week i got some under my eye and it irritated the skin so so badly it hurt to the touch. It also dried out my skin to the point where It would be like dandruff of the face. I would avoid this product, especially if your skin is sensitive, mine is not.

Pros:

Just for the record, I'm reviewing the original formula for this - its for moderate acne, not severe.

- It gets rid of those big "lumps"
-it works overnight
-It dries them up so quickly

Cons:

-The formula (the cream one) sucks, the gel one is SOSOSOSOSO much better
- Its hard to find
- It's ooey gooey
-It doesn't prevent new pimples

This stuff really deserves its name. It does terminate acne, and it works really well on clusters and large lumps. However, I'm disappointed I haven't been able to get the original formula I started using back in like February. That one worked, this cream one sucks.

Pros:

Does help with acne.

Cons:

Dries skin out!!!!

I have used this product but the strength of BP was 2%. I loved the terminator gel that is this strength, it works pretty good for my acne and does not dry out my face!!! It goes on clear. I can no longer find the 2% BP, only 5% and 10%!!! I just ordered my first bottle of BP from this site, gonna see how I like it and I will do a review on it soon.

Yikes
I used it for 3 days only and the first time was ok but the second day i used it i noticed it started to burn a little but i ignored it. So the 3rd day i had it on and i was about to go in the pool but i didn't have time to take it off so i used water and a towel and when i got in the pool i noticed my skin was peeling and super dry. It's been 2days since i've stopped using this product and my skin is AWFUL. where ever i applied the treatment there are dry spots that are waiting to peel off. I regret spending a penny on this product.

Worked, but be careful
This was the most effective acne spot treatment I have ever used. It reduces the size and redness of my pimples. But, reading other reviews, I see a lot of people have had some bad side effects. Make sure to be careful, test the product, and moisturize after use. Also, read the warnings and directions. Would recommend to anyone looking for an effective acne spot treatment.

horrifying results
i used this once a long time ago, and it made my skin a little irritated so i didn't again. then, about 2 days ago, i tried it again and it was horrible. my skin broke out in hives, it started burning, it turned red and patchy, it made my acne WORSE, and it made my face swollen. i do NOT reccomend. on the product it says to not use if your skin is sensitive, but my skin has never been sensitive to any product before but this one. this pretty much ruined my skin and and made it super patchy and red. please don't attempt to use this.

This is an AWFUL product
I am extremely upset with this product. I used it for 3 nights on my chin and t zone as well as beside my nose. Washed my face this morning. Moisturized and put on my makeup as usual....I should have known better than to use a cheap drugstore brand , but was out of proactive spot treatment and it was late Long story short, midday my chin goes numb. We're talking it's so so numb it feels odd. I even panicked momentarily that my lip injections had slipped down my face. Lol. Well now I'm twice as numb a couple hours later and my entire chin is a bizarre red /pink /orange color. The surface of my skin where applied looks as if they were painted in a layer of clear paint and I am also starting to get tiny bumps on my chin. Not sure if I'm about To peel , breakout or if they're hives ! Needless to say I'm super frustrated. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! Use a different spot treatment.

Burns!

Pros:

none

Cons:

burns
redness
peeling

10% benzoyl peroxide was way too strong to put on my face. it burned my skin and made it red and painful. I'll never put it on my face again, if anything get benzoyl peroxide in a lower dose like 2.5% so you don't burn your face off.

Pros:

1. reduces pimple size, severity and redness.
2. prevents breakouts, tightens pores, and keeps smaller zits from turning into big ones!
3. works immediately.
4. lasts forever (4-6 months of daily use)
5. i can use it for a week or so and then discontinue and my acne seems to stay away for quite sometime.

Cons:

1. dries out skin badly if you use too much. (i recommend using every night/every other night very sparingly)
2. can make skin flaky and even with lotion is hard to get rid of once its started!! huge con.
3. burns
4. ugly name and ugly container. the name makes me want to hide it in my drawer-i don't want guys to see it. haha

1. it's my go to topical cream.
