Pros:

It works! It doesn't smell like the 10% benzoyl peroxide too badly.

Try this if you have severe acne, if not, then use the regular terminator. If your pimple doesn't go down right away, use it a few more times, and it will vanish!

Pros:

works and is easy to use not too expensive

Cons:

dries and irritates skin

really good product i bought it due to a problem area and within 2 hours swelling and size went down noticeably only problem is that it is very intense and dried my skin out to the point that it itched but if this occurs just do what i do wash your face like you normally would than pat dry put a small amount on problem areas or zits remember this is a SPOT treatment not a all over cream use where needed...let dry for a couple of minutes than take your favorite moisturizer and place all over. WORKED FOR ME!! =D

You just have to know how to handle it
I use this not as a spot treatment but all over my entire face.. because my entire face is one spot of acne. As far as BP creams go, this one is great. It dries you out, but that's what it's supposed to do. As long as you moisturize about 10 minutes after using it with something like Cetaphil facial moisturizer, you shouldn't experience any dry spots. It's also worth mentioning that your skin has to get used to the strength of the BP, which can take several days of use. As far as whether or not it works, I'd like to think that it does. It definitely seems to help bring my pimples to a whitehead when they're deep and inflamed. For me, it doesn't really prevent acne but it at least helps shorten its lifespan.

Pros:

Clears up skin literally overnight
Dries Clear
Great Value

Cons:

Smells HORRIBLE!
Stings slightly when first applied

Overall I really liked this product. It literally cleared up my acne overnight and killed the few pimples I had while on the regime. It comes in a 1oz tube and for $5 I think that is a great value verses the Neutrogena On the Spot treatment which is $10 for .75oz. My only gripes with this product are that it smells so terrible, it's really overwhelming when first applied. Also it stings slightly when you first apply it, at least for me. I never had this issue with the Neutrogena but it was nothing to bad and it subsided within a couple of minutes. Overall I'd recommend giving it a shot if you are sick of the high price of Neutrogena's formula.

Pros:

found in stores
doesn't clump
no white residue
effective

Cons:

expensive for 1 oz.

I used this to start the Regimen. It works the way I expected it to--my skin cleared, got a little itchy, felt rough, then cleared again. It hasn't stained my hair or pillowcase, but that could just be the way it works with my chemistry. I like that it's a gel because it's easy to spread. It was also convenient because I just went to a store and pick it up. It's a nice tube to travel with, but I'm probably going to buy the 16 oz. acne.org BP bottle because it's cheaper. I'm giving it a 4/5 because of the price per ounce.

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:

-clears out break outs fast

Cons:

-doesn't smell good
-very strong
-can dry out skin if there are no pimples on it

It is a great product for teen acne. If your skin breaks out on a certain area, use this and it will immediately clear this up. I tried it on big individual pimples, and it was really slow.
