Pros:

Not irritating
Size of Bottle
Price

Cons:

Shipping Cost (All in all a value though)

Was paying much more for prescription (Duac) that had 5% BP. After seeing how well a BP solution worked but not wanting to pay the cost ($40 per month), tried DK product. It's not overdrying for me, but this takes about 3 -4 months of application for the new BP user. I've found that Zirh "Protect" is an excellent moisturizer that can take care of any flakiness in the beginning without making the problem worse. Thanks DK! Nice job!

Pros:

Does a great job of clearing up acne. Goes on incredibly smooth.

Cons:

Postage is pretty expensive.
Will bleach your clothes like mad if they touch anything. Be very careful of what you touch.
Difficult to use on back w/o bleaching shirts.

If your looking for a way to truly clear up your acne this is a great place to start. While it doesnt seem to eliminate it all together it really helps to keep them from breaking out badly. The more you use it the better it will work. I work in the medical industry and see people paying $80 for RXs of benzole peroxide creams. Not nearly worth the price. If you can apply the cream to your face after you put your shirt on int he morning and make sure you don't touch your face to your clothes, then it will not bleach. I have ruined many shirts with this stuff so be careful.

Pros:

Clears and prevents acne, goes on clear, no white residue, doesn't irritate my skin, feels great, unscented

Cons:

Drying, not available in stores

Best acne treatment ever!! I've tried some many acne treatments, but this it the only one that actually cleared me up. It cleared up my mild acne within a month. It is a bit drying, but all BP does that to some degree. A good moisturizer takes care of that. I just wish that this fabulous product was available in stores!

Pros:

This stuff is great and when used with the regimen has produced great results for me. I use it with Neutrogena Sensitive Skin wash and Neutrogena Helahty Skin Face location with AHA. My skin hasn't been this good for years.

Cons:

Does bleach fabrics a bit, especially bed sheets I find, but not a huge deal.

I recomnmend it!

Pros:

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!

Cons:

None.

I suffered from acne for a long time. I tried a lot of medications and nothing worked. This one did, and all I can say is that after two treatments a day for a few weeks, my acne cleared up. I've been acne free for a year now, and I owe everything to this product. Seriously, it sounds corny but it's given me a new life.

Pros:

Works better than a cream formula, since it doesn't ball up with moisturizer and is easier to apply. Clear gel, so if you go to a pool or something it won't produce a waterish residue. A bigger size than the Neutrogena-On-the-Spot.

Cons:

Only available online, not in stores...

I only got this product 3 days ago. I have been doing this regimen for about a month now, but all that time with the Neutrogena stuff. My skin was almost clear, but with 2 pimples and about 6 blackheads. But after using THIS gel, I have an acne-free face now. I definitely recommend it to anyone.

Pros:

not overdrying...i recommend leaving your face a little moist (maybe 1 minute after washing face) before putting on BP so that way it doesn't overdry and irritate the skin too much...works great ONLY if you are consist with it (morning & night)

Cons:

None
