Pros:

Best regimen ever!!!

Cons:

Only onw I can think of, bleaches fabrics but now I just use white pillow cases and be careful about getting dressed while it is still drying

I tried everything for my moderate acne (almost always a few spots and have had it since I was 13 and now I am 33) including Proactive and Retin A micro. Proactive didn't work and was expensive! Retin A got rid of sun damage but didn't help the acne and no matter how little I used and how much moisturizer I put on, after a year my face was still red and scaly from the Retin A and I still broke out. I use Dan's BP, wash with Cetaphil, and use Aveeno or Cetaphil moisturizer with sunscreen. It didn't dry my face out, but it was already dry from the Retin A, so it actually was less dry when I started the BP. I literally have no acne now and have remained clear for three months!! I never thought I could ever have such great skin! Such a simple and inexpensive regimen changed my life! I just wish I had found Dan's site and tried it years ago! I also don't have to use nearly as much BP as the directions indicate, but I do have a small face :)

Pros:

Cheap and easy to use. Can be used under makeup.

Cons:

Bleaches fabrics.

THE ONLY THING THAT WORKS!!! By the 2-3 week I was 98% clear. I have now been using Dan's BP for 5 weeks and my acne scars are beginning to fade. 1st week my skin was very red. I used baking soda/water (instead of Dan's cleanser) as my cleanser to flake off my dry skin and than use lOTS of moisturizer at night after applying the BP. I no longer use Dan's cleanser at all, since for me it's very drying and the baking soda is something that clears my acne by half all by itself. I only use a little BP about a pea size - because I switch back to baking soda. I hope this helps somebody. THANK YOU DAN!

Pros:

goes on clear. odorless. alot of product for a little price(very economical)

Cons:

excessive drying

ive been suffering from moderate acne for 5 or 6 years and only been using this product for 5 days and my skin i practically clear except for a few blemishes. The first couple of days it accually made my existing pimple to break out more but in the last 3 days i havent had a new pimple pop up. It did over dry my skin but i just had to apply a good moisturizer.

Pros:

Gel form doesn't leave white streaks, it dries smoothly, hygienic pump bottle, gentler than 10% BP formulas and just as effective, caused no irritation

Cons:

Bleaches fabric, not available in stores

I've been using Acne.org's BP gel for a couple of weeks now and I really love it. It doesn't sting on my face, it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or flaky, it dries clear and smooth, and it's very effective. I apply it right before the AHA lotion. The fact that it can easily bleach fabric is sort of a peeve, but I can deal with it. I hated having to constantly replace my tiny tubes of 10% BP creams, and this huge pump bottle is so much more convenient and sanitary.

I simply love this product... it has given me a new confidence.. everyone can notice the difference in my skin.. people compliment my skin all the time.. :-) i have never been happier with my skin before this ...

Pros:

Definitely works to clear up acne!

Cons:

Takes FOREVER to rub in. Also, it "pills" up into little balls once I put on the moisturizer.

I love this product! It may have its cons, but they aren't worth going back to acne. Before The Regimen, I was developing 3-4 new pustules or cystic acne every day, even though I was using ProActiv (2 1/2 years)and then Acne Free (a few months). In the last month that I've been using The Regimen, I've only developed a few new ones, and that was mainly because I neglected to wash my face one night. The ones that did come up were gone within 2 days. It seems a little pricey, but I was spending AT LEAST $40 every month on ProActiv, and this product lasts 2 months for less than that, so it really is a bargain. I am EXTREMELY pleased with this product, and will continue to use it.

Pros:

Dest product I have used for acne!! Definitely does the job. Pimples started clearing up the very next day

Cons:

can dry you out a little
shipping bites - but it's worth it!!!!!

I wish I came across this website years ago!! I dont even know how I have bipassed it. I have tried so many products and have wasted so much money to have nice skin (last was Murad system-broke out w/pimples everyday!) Who would have thought going back to BP would have been the trick, but IT IS!!! Right now I use Purpose Cleanser, Dan's BP, and Oil of Olay Sensitive. Thanks to this site, I now have a great complexion.

Nothing

Put the BP Bottle in your refrigerator and it feels way better

Pros:

cheap, odorless

Cons:

doesn't work, stains fabric, dries skin, layers of product on your face all day, can't use makeup, extreme dryness

This product left my skin exactly as before and I was very careful to use it as described. My skin was so incredibly dry at times I turned down party invites even after tons of moisturizer. Makeup over the day-time regimen is out of the question because it is caked on your face. I understood I would go through some dryness and thought the payoff would be clear skin, but after 10 weeks my skin is exactly as before and my pillow cases are ruined.
