Pros:

Works and doesn't irritate skin. has a nice glide texture and allows you to properly spread it everywhere without it drying too quickly.

Cons:

If it doesn't totally try then the products you put over it might ball up a bit. Also it takes some time to work it in and I'm only using one pump. I'm almost scared to use two pumps.

I love this product. The only major con is that it does have a nice glide, but it almost doesn't want to absorb too readily into your skin so you need to spend some time working it in and then waighing for it to dry. Aside from that it is a wonderful product and I highly recommend it. It has cleared up my face and now everyone is telling me how great my skin looks and that feeling is wonderful. I'm so happy I found this product. Thank you Dan!

Pros:

It is cheap AND effective!

Cons:

The application process is time-consuming, and it will bleach out all your hand towels

I have tried many acne cures, but this will be the last, as there is no need for me to look any further! It worked like a charm for me. After the initial 8-week period, my skin was clear and I was able to drop down to one application a day (at night).

Pros:

This is great stuff, very effective!

Cons:

None really as long as you follow the regimen.

It works...better than anything else I have used.

Pros:

Worked well for the first few months.

Cons:

After initial period, acne came back. And it's hard to pay for a couple bottles + shipping every couple months when you're in college... Also, what happens over the long term when your skin has been absorbing this chemical into your body?

I've been using this product for about 4 years. It's been great for the most part, but I still have a lot of acne AND my skin is very oily. I went to a different acne website and found that topical creams can be way detrimental to your system. And what's more; they just treat the result of not taking care of your body. You have to figure out what toxins your skin is trying to get rid of. Food CAN DEFINITELY affect your acne, especially when you're eating lots of refined foods, sugar and not enough good fats. Many of us are veterans of acne. Topical creams might have long term effects we don't know about. Try going natural for awhile and see how you feel inside AND out. (go to the acne is dead website!)

Pros:

cleared up my skin 90% in 4 days. it is INCREDIBLE. worth every penny plus more.

Cons:

i wish i would had found this sooner. it dries up your face and neck like crazy, however, when you have clear skin WHO CARES?! just moisturize like crazy. love love love you dan.

I was so skeptical at this point in my life, I have exhausted every single product on the market along with prescription (except accutane which is next on the list), and I am honestly in AWE about this product, this regime... Dan, you saved me, and gave me my confidence back THIS REGIME IS THE BEST.

Pros:

The product goes on clear and does not clump with lotion. The bottles contain alot of product for a good price.

Cons:

I've been using Duac in the morn and differin at night for awhile. However, my face was drying out way too much and the Duac clumped with everything. So i purchased this BP and used in for several weeks but it irriated my skin really bad.

Its way to irritating for my skin but would be great for those who have oily skin and toughter skin.

Pros:

It dries up acne.

Cons:

No effects anymore after using for a few years. Only works for a while.

Pros:

Goes on smooth, dries quickly, does not over-dry.

Cons:

The packaging gets a little annoying. Even using the method Dan used, I've had to cut the bottle open at times just to get out the rest of the product out.

This is the best BP treatment I have ever used. I have extremely oily skin and it dries as I smooth it over my face. I have never used a gel BP before and I must say that it is fantastic. It (along with the rest of Dan's regime) cleared my acne up completely within 2 and a half months. I don't have a single blemish on my entire face. That's unheard of considering my history of acne.

Pros:

Eliminates nearly all acne on my face. Great consistency and price.

Cons:

If you sweat a lot, it'll carry down your neck and start to bleach your shirt.

This treatment really is a God-send. I'm not really sure what I'd do without it. It has greatly restored my confidence.
September 18, 2008

Pros:

Works for me, smooth and easy to apply, lasts way longer (2 squirts day and night) than your average tube of BP, smell reminds me of my ex.

Cons:

Smell reminds me of my ex :(

All jokes aside, it does what every other BP treatment has failed to do and that's clear up most of my pimples BETTER and without the white residue. I used to have many tiny bumps which would scar, but after a few months of using this they're all gone and now I only deal with a few pimples. If you have time in your morning routine and you have acne, give it a try.
