Pros:

extremely good at acne-removal and prevention

Cons:

dried out my sensitive cheeks, gel did not absorb into my skin well at all

I have been using this BP for about five months. At the beginning, my skin was very dry and flaky as expected, but I stuck with it because I was told my skin would get used to it. Eventually, I stopped getting very dry on everywhere on my skin except for my cheeks. My cheeks just never grew accustomed to the bp. The gel did not absorb into my skin well for me and it was really thick, which made me feel like I had something on my face. The bp made the application of my moisturizer not very smooth. When I would go in the shower, my jaw line for some reason would feel irritated. I know that everyone's skin is different, so I still reccomend that people at least try to see if it works for them.

Pros:

Teh best i've used for getting rid of acne. Dries up the acne very quickly. Goes on smooth and absorbs quickly.

Cons:

My skin is VERY sensitive, so sometimes my face likes to go on a flaking rage, even with the moisturizer and jojoba oil!

Even the most sensitive skin should start becoming more resiliant towards the BP. IMPORTANT: If a part of your face should become a little flakey, make sure not to keep putting BP on it, or else it will become more and more flakey, and eventually cause a breakout! Instead, just skip 1 BP session on that part of the face, and allow it to go back to normal before adding more BP. This is just my experience though. BUY IT! =D

Pros:

Heals existing blemishes quickly and does a relatively good job of preventing new blemishes. easy to apply and overall gentle.

Cons:

The time it takes to apply and dry. Can leave face dry & flaky. Shape of bottle and thickness of gel can make it hard to completely empty the bottle, and get full pumps without air in them sometimes.

Very nice. Very effective. my skin looks so much better now than it did before the treatment. Thank you, Dan.

Pros:

works for everyone i guess...my dermatologist recommended it in combination with aziderm (20%) and benzac (5% now and 2.5% to start)..its the only thing that really worked for me..

Cons:

dries up your skin a little...but once u get used to using it, ure skin gets used to it and dosent react negatively

ITS THE ONLY REAL SOLUTION TO ACNE TREATMENT

Pros:

Clears up acne when used properly; good value; does not irritate the skin; no animal products or animal testing

Cons:

None

The BP treatment, when used as Dan recommends, works very well to fight and prevent acne. I've used 10% BP before, and find that this works just as well. It's a high-quality product, and a good value.

Pros:

It works! Affordable. Quick shipping.

Cons:

None

Found Daniel's regimen online few years ago while searching for solution for my son. Tried proactive & many other products. Went to dermatologist for years & tried prescription products & antibiotics. Nothing worked til I found his regimen. My son used it faithfully til his products became available. He swears by them. My daughter is now using & I have recommended to a friend w/a teenage daughter & she is very happy.

Pros:

goes on smoothly, absorbs quickly, non fragrance, works, cheap

Cons:

none

Firstly, BP dries peoples' skins. So people, stop complaining. That's the nature of BP. Anyway, glad that I got that off my chest. I've used several brand named BP and they were gritty and watery and they weren't cheap. Once I started using this, I tell you, I will not want to go back using other brands. Once I applied this stuff on my face, is heavenly smooth. I am telling you, for the quality this stuff should cost a lot more. I am very happy I ended up trying Dan's BP.

Pros:

Almost eradicates acne! Inexpensive.

Cons:

Drying, but that's BP for you.

Over the years I have tried many different benzoyl peroxide brands. Before I went on the regiment I was using ProActiv brand and then Neutrogena brand. I ordered this stuff, and it is the BEST of the bunch. It slides on easily (like lotion), absorbs easily, does not leave any WHITE residue, and is CHEAP.
