Cons:

flakiness, dry skin, burnt skin

it seemed to clear my skin on week 4-5; however, right now i am on my week 8 and my skin looks as bad as it has never looked before. It looks burnt. I have red patches on my skin. It is itchy and it burns when i put moisturizer. I have decreased the amount of benzoyl peroxide to one pump...but im not just nor sure anymore. I feel like im burning my skin. It became rough on the touch. What should I do? Stick to it or leave it? Anyone?

Pros:

Clears active pimples

-Flakiness
-Dryness
-destroys skin tone
-makes hyperpigmentation worse
-once you're on the stuff you're on forever unless you want your acne back

Listen guys, this stuff does clear acne if you're on it long enough. It took me 4 months and I was "pimple free." This does NOT include the terrible dark marks it leaves behind. I would not recommend this if you're looking for a solution for your acne. My face is now starting to get some of it's tone back that the bp destroyed. Once you're finally clear, you would think you could gradually get off the stuff, but no. You're on it for life. I personally think your skin gets addicted to it and has more trouble fighting off acne now that I'm off of it. Bottom line is, I would not recommend this product

-Good for mild acne
-Simple Regimen to follow
-Skin does not become resistant to BP over years of usage compared to other antibiotics

-NOT good for more severe cases of acne
-VERY time consuming
-Discolors pillows
-Can leave face oily
-Redness and dryness will surely occur
-Expensive

This regimen and the philosophy of using only a low dose of Benzoyl Peroxide for all acne cases is silly. The low dose of BP is great for people with mild acne, but does not cover the wide range of acne cases that may exist. I have suffered with acne for years. I have been prescribed everything under the sun including adapalene, Retin- A, Duac, and most others. For me Duac(5%BP 1%clindmycin) worked best for the years that I took it. After three years of carefree and perfect skin Duac's results became mediocre and my dermatologist said the BP was still working but my skin had become resistant to the clindamycin. (my skin is under control now, but I'm using a complex mix of antibiotics and retinoids) If you aren't allergic to clindamycin and have not taken it before, Duac is a much better choice and covers a much wider range of acne cases than the regimen. It has prescription strength antibiotics, which you can only get from a doctor, and it is much less time consuming to use than the regimen (5 minutes a day as oppose to 25 X2). In conclusion, the regimen is perfectly okay for mild to very mild acne sufferers, but anything more complex a dermatologist should be consulted.
