Pros:

it works! i've been using dan kern's regimen for about two years now, and the difference is remarkable. now i get one or two blemishes per month, not per day. clear formula goes on great.

Cons:

paying for shipping.... a small travel size and a bigger "economy" size would be great additions, too.

the best product i've used.

Pros:

Smooth, gel consistency, dries quick and clear, not flaky, not clumpy under moisturizer, not over-drying.

Cons:

Only available online; therefore, you must pay for shipping, which isn't cheap.

I've used other BP's and this is by far the best!! The consistency is perfect, just be sure to use a good moisturizer. The slower you apply it and let it absorb, the better. I use half of a finger's length amount twice a day and I'm completely clear. The other brands that I've used in the past dry white and clump up but this does not. Great product.

Pros:

Large size, absorbs incredibly easy, gel doesn't leave any white residue on the face like cream-based BP.

Cons:

Ordering online is a bit of a hassle, but worth it in the long run.

Daniel Kern's BP Gel is by far the best benzoyl oeroxide product i've had the chance to use. It's amazingly easy to apply to your face, as the gel absorbs smoothly and quickly. I love how there's no white residue that's left on your skin, which is the case with cream BP's. The quantity is huge and a great value, considering the cheap price. It managed to get rid of my acne within a few weeks, and I'm really glad that I made the decision to give it a try. If you're just beginning the Regimen, then this is the BP you need to use. Trust me, it's an investment you won't forget.

Pros:

Fragrance-free, thick consistency, cheap and you can cut the tube open to get the last remnants out of the bottle :)

Cons:

wish it came in even bigger packaging, need to be patient and wait for it to dry or it'll bleach out all your clothes/sheets

I LOVE this stuff especially in comparison to proactiv's 2.5% which is too creamy and stinks to high heavens (enough to make you sick if in large increments which is required for DK's regimen)

Pros:

-Keeps acne "at bay".
-Price per ounce.

Cons:

-Recommended BP application method is irritating, unfortunately it doesn't work 'wonders' by simply applying it on real quick.
-Time consuming

Obviously NOT better then any prescribed products. Definitely good for a "last resort" for acne but definitely will not make your skin crystal clear. I have used it for 3+ years and still have 1-2 cystic lesions at a time.

Pros:

The price is unbeatable compared to Neutragena, and it works great! No drying (I moisturize afterward). The tube lasts forever.

Cons:

Can't think of any.

Use it as part of the regime and you will experience great happiness due to a clear complexion! I will continue using these products as long as Dan keeps making them. Thank you Dan! No more depressing mornings staring at the pimples on my face!! Yeah! :-)

Pros:

It works, it is exceptionally priced, it is NOT super drying, and it is sold by a person who has been in a similar situation and knew there was a desperate need for this product. Really, there are only pros to this BP gel!!!

Cons:

I'm not always thrilled with the online order site, but it is a small burden!

I use this, my husband uses this, my teenage children use this. It works and I do not know what I would do if it wasn't avilable. The skin on my face would dry and flake away, or I would go back to trying to cut an expensive 10% BP lotion with some sort of moisturizer (which never worked that well). Thank you Dan!!!

Pros:

It would be cheap if it didn't have to be shipped.

Cons:

It gave my skin breakouts. I wasn't allergic to it, it just made my skin horrible. I couldn't put on makeup properly and people actually kept telling me how bad my zits looked.

It's no different to the other stuff. Another false acne-relief dream. :(

Pros:

It really works, it doesn't sting, it sinks in well, it doesn't smell,

Cons:

I wouldn't use it too close to delicate areas of skin (around eyes) as they can go temporarily wrinkly -this is true of all benzoyl peroxide and probably this gel is better than most.

It works! I noticed immediate improvement but after 8 weeks of using it as instructed I have skin to be proud of. However, I did only have mild (but worsening) acne. It has got it totally under control. Even if new spots appear they disappear very quickly and don't get big red or painful.
