Life changing

I've had acne for 6 years, spent I think around $1,500 on products from face washes and oils to vitamins, yet this is the only thing that has worked. I used to get 4-8 pimples a DAY and now 4 weeks on BP I think I've gotten 5 since the day I started. The texture of my skin is now so so smooth. Re: the dryness, I mean yeah it is kinda drying but it's more than manageable with a decent moisturiser and jojoba oil. Try this, it works.

Awful Experience

Firstly some background information;

-started BP when 14 years old April of 2018

-had acne since 10-11years old (quite moderate)

-female

So last year, I became very frustrated with acne and every single night I was looking at 'cures' for it. I then came across Acne.org. I read all the amazing reviews and was very convinced. Since it is pretty pricey and I also live in the EU, it was super pricey, maybe over 120 euros. At first, it helped my smaller pimples and body acne. In month 1, for about 1 week my skin looked pretty good but it slowly then went worse. I read on this site that it's normal, and you should wait a few more months and everyone swore that you would get results. During summer my skin went to the worst point it had ever been. Before I never scarred but the packet of all the products made me prone to scarring, so every single simple left a scar, still to do this day. It was honestly an awful situation and keep in mind, I kept ordering since I believed that it would take time for effect. So I kept spending money, more every single time as the site said to add more products, and the worse it got. It was horrible, every morning 5 new big pimples and painful ones too. So, I just stopped. About 5 months after, I started Accutane (still on it) and its very effective).

I just want to say, it's not a guarantee this will work for you. You can read all the delightful comments and reviews but don't expect anything. Since acne.org, the website and webshop are linked its mostly very biased. And make sure you understand that its a risk buying these things.

Saved my life

When I started using this regimen I almost gave up. My face got worse, I bad terrible acne and I felt so ugly. As I write this I'm so happy I didn't give up. It is a lot cheaper than  frequent dermatologist visits and experimental regimens. Thanks so much for wonderful products.

AMAZING

I've had acne breakouts for 8+ years and NOTHING has worked as a spot treatment better than this product--it's absolutely phenomenal! I recommend this to anyone and everyone who has surficial whiteheads or deep cysts, this product minimizes redness and inflammation without drying out or stinging your skin. 10/10!

No different from other benzoyl peroxide products

If benzyol has not helped you in the past, it will not now. I was very hopeful about this product and it is not to say it doesn't work for people, in my experience it was no different from cheaper more accessible creams like proactiv which for me did nothing. I acknowledge that this is something I observed with my skin, and this will not be the case for everyone. Never the less, I spent $30 on this product and it made me break out and dried out my skin. I even tried the 2-minute leave on method which is shown to reduce irritation, but until I cut out this ingredient from my regime my skin was stuck in severe (keeping in mind I had other treatments going on like salicylic acid and retinoids, so benzoyl might have been too much on top of my regime).

improvement noticed

i started using this product 3 weeks ago. just the treatment and i have seen sinificant changes though my acne keeps coming back. especially around my chin and jaw line. at least the pimples dry faster which is a good thing but i dnt know why i keep getting newer breakouts. the skin around my eyes can not stand the benzoyl. it makes it look ages older and all wrinkly. so when i apply the benzoyl, i try as much as possible to avoid areas around my eyes and neck. otherwise, am still hopeful it will work for me too and completely eliminate the jaw line acne too.

Made my acne waaay worse.
Made my acne many times worse. Honestly destroyed my confidence. I think about it everyday. Using the product was the worst decision I've ever made

You probably used it very wrong, you need to follow the instructions (remedy) or you are probably allergic

Allergic, but still a 5?
I ended up being allergic to the BP, but the reason I give it 5 stars still is because of the science. After the BP not working for me I went to a dermatologist who basically gave me Acne.org products. I had a different antibiotic and retin-A (basically the AHA). My skin cleared in a couple of months. Although the BP didn't work for me, I am sure it will work for others. Just make sure to always do a test patch with any products you put onto your skin!

Holy Grail Product
I've only been using this for 4 days and my skin surface texture feels baby soft smooth. I have moderate acne and stubborn closed comedones on my forehead and cheeks. I've been on expensive prescription medications and topicals, tried various skincare lines & products, bought a ton of korean skincare products/acids that people claimed worked for them. Absolutely nothing worked like this product did and there was already a noticeable difference on the second day. Skin is still clearing up beneath the surface, my bumps are still there. I do have some redness and peeling currently but for me it's worth it because it's becoming so smooth. I'm very happy with this product so far. Also my skin is tolerating it well probably because I've exposed my skin to so many strong acids and products it's taking the BP like a champ and not drying me out at all so I can slather it on pretty good. I cannot wait to see what it looks like in a month or so, I'll come back for an update.
