Pros:

It is ok at stopping new acne forming

Cons:

Unfortunately, too many! I have stopped using it and now using Microdermx to try and fix the red marks

Okay, I have used this for a few months. Here is my honest opinion of this. I have written a review for it before and gave it 3 stars out of 5 overall, but I am changing it now to 2. Here is why. You can tell that your skin hates this product. It seems to me that my skin was pretty much "dead" after a while using this. Not only was my skin always flakey, it just looked dull and lifeless. But to be honest, Acne affects me so badly on a psychological level that I would be the first one to say that it's not very important. As long as I can get on with my life and not have my Cheeks covered in Acne. So the real problem with this product is it seems to make hyper pigmentation marks (Red marks left over from acne, which is worse than acne it self!) last FOREVER. Serious, I read that it did this, but I also read Ran saying it didn't. So I thought I would see for myself. I can now confirm that expect you're red marks to stick around for ages if you use this. I have now quit using it

Pros:

Large size is convenient and cost effective, gel goes on easily and dries quickly with no fragrance.

Cons:

Slight irritation like all BP products.

I think Dan has the best deal on the market for BP products, though I'd be interested in a 1.5% option for adults with less acne. I really like the very open and honest way he does business with full disclosures about everything.

Pros:

Within days of use my skin was totally clear! Also stops zits from comming to the surface.

Cons:

Dry and flakey skin. Also, becareful that it doesn't bleach your pillowcase! I sleep on my side at nite and even though the BP was dry, it ruined it :(

I am so glad I tried this! I have had moderate acne for years and tried retin-a, proactiv, minocycline, orthotricyclen, and EVERYTHING from the drugstore! This is the first thing that ever worked for me! I am so happy and I have only been on the BP for 3 weeks! This is a miracle and I will never give this stuff up! No more wearing tons of makeup yayyyyyy!

Pros:

It got rid of my pre-existing acne in a few days and since I started using it, no new acne has formed!!!!! Sooo pleased with the results so far! I'm 2 weeks into the regimen and my skin is *clear*!

Cons:

My skin was dry, flaking, red and itching in the first few days but I persevered due to the great results. It's extremeley affordable but having to order it online is a con I guess although one I'd definitely live with!!!!

Try this!! I can't speak for everyone but for me this has simply worked wonders! My acne has never been that bad but it has been really persistent i.e. I've always have a few spots on my face with only a few days of clear skin per month... But now I have near perfect skin thanks to Acne.org treatment!!! I don't even use the full amount. Probably use only a pea-sized amount twice a day. In the past few years I've spent/wasted so much money on both high and low end products most of which did absolutely nothing. I wish I'd found out about the regimen earlier so I could have clear skin plus have saved sooo much money!! Seriously give it a chance, they even do a travel size so if it doesn't work it's only 4 dollars wasted! I can't thank Dan enough for coming up with the regimen and these amazing products!

Pros:

It works...that's all that matters

Cons:

Does leave my skin dry and flaky (but can be helped with Moisturizer and Jojoba Oil morning and night)

Even after a couple days of use, my skin was clearing up considerably. So far, I'm 100% confident that it's working as intended.

Pros:

very effective, vegan, affordable

Cons:

bleaches clothes and pillowcases, regimen is somewhat time consuming because of gel's drying time

It works and it's vegan! First thing I've found that really works for me and I've been trying different products for YEARS (Since I was 15. I am 23.) I can deal with the bleached pillowcases for that!

Pros:

Best product I've used. Period. My skin has cleared up almost entirely and it's only been a week!

Cons:

smells terrible, leaks from the bottle at the base of the pump, irritating when you first start using ... but this subsides (don't give up!)

I am the biggest skeptic of them all. Pumping benzoyl peroxide on your face twice a day for acne ... yeah right. Actually, it works. My face looks incredible. I tweaked the regimen a bit though. I only apply the benzoyl peroxide at night and I use Dan's AHA+ moisturizer along with an SPF during the day. I've been using Differin for the past three years with good, but not great results. A few months ago it stopped working entirely. I stumbled across this website, found the regimen and decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did. If my skin looks this good after just a week of use, I can't wait to see my skin after a month.

Pros:

Alot of product for the money. Also reduced some of the oiliness and eliminated facial redness.

Cons:

Not sold in stores. Can't skip a day or I'll breakout again in a few days.

I use Dan's benzoyl peroxide only once per day. I wash my face with my hands with Serious Skin Care's Daily Ritual Cleanser (which has both salicylic acid AND glycolic acid) both a.m. and p.m. and rinse gently with tepid water and a washcloth. In the p.m. ONLY I follow with one pump of Dan's benzoyl peroxide. I also keep Serious Skin Care's Super Hydrate on hand if I experience too much dryness which doesn't happen too often for me because I have very oily skin. I have finally after many years and many different product lines found the solution to my acne problems. Not only is my skin clear, but it also helped reduce the oilness and my skin is no longer red any more! Thank you Dan for making this benzoyl peroxide, it really is the best I have ever tried.
