Pros:

Quickly dries up acne covered area of the face; however the moisturizer does help.

Cons:

it takes too long to take effect!

i just had this trouble with acne erupting on my fave when i started working, and im doing graveyard shifts. maybe this is all due to stress. whi;e surfing the net, i came up to this website so i tried the regimen. i had a facial first before trying this regimen. i noticed a difference on my right cheek, but on the left part, it still hasn't changed! but, i just used it for a couple of days so i know i should be patient. well, it's worth a try anyways!

Pros:

The only product that has got rid of my white pussy spots. A big Thank YOu!

Cons:

It will dry skin out but will even out later. It just takes time and patience to get results.

It works! and I gave my batch to my sister so Im ordering some more now! :)

Pros:

High quality product, low price.

Cons:

Only the bleaching effect it has on pillows (but that happens with all BP products)

I switched to this BP cream from OXY 'On-The-Spot' 2.5% and have been please the whole time using the OXY cream, it was just very expensive. This gel has been working just as well, and at a much better price. Even delivery to the UK was only 5 days. I'm probably saving $40 a month swapping to this gel. Cheers! -another Dan :)

Pros:

affordable
doesn't overdry the skin

Cons:

it hasn't got rid of my whiteheads or blackheads

Its a fantastic product, I still have acne, but its mild now and is controlled thanks to the gel. I used to be conscious of my skin but rarely worry about it since I have used the gel. I only use it at night because my clothes are bleached by the product, which is a shame.

Great product...
I would give this product 5 stars but it seems to have increased my likelihood of premature wrinkles...and it's not a very great product when you live in a place as sunny as central Texas. My skin is still extremely sensitive, almost 3 years after starting to use BP. The effectiveness is bar none though.

Pros:

-Works pretty well for moderately severe acne.
-Great cost for amount given (hard to find a better deal).

Cons:

-Drying
-Stains cloths
-I find it hard to do more than 1x/day do to extreme dryness. My body never did get use to it.

This is the best product I have come across so far and I have been using it for years. It helps with about 80% of my acne. I am sure it would be more if I could do it 2x/day, but it dries my skin out way too much. I tried it for months thinking my skin would get use to it, but it never did. But with 1x/day I am happy with the results - Not perfect, but much better than if I went without. I have noticed that some batches I order are better than others, but for the amount of product I received for the price, I can't complain. I use this in combination with Dan's moisturizer too. I wish there was a product that worked equally as well and didn't stain my cloths though :-( I use it on my chest and back as well and any time you sweat, you can kiss your cloths goodbye.

Pros:

Clears chronic, cystic acne. Seriously, I had small little acne cysts that hurt so much!

Cons:

It took a while for my skin to become used to it, at first I had redness and itchy, dry skin. I still have acne scars that I have to cover up with foundation (but I guess it can't get rid of everything! ).

Not sure why it's taken my this long to review the "treatment" but over the past year it really has done wonders for my skin! My roommates started using it last year, and I started using it in the fall as a last-ditch effort (I had had chronic acne since elementary school and I was 21 when I first bought it and I had tried an endless supply of products before), and it worked really well. Like I stated previously, it took some getting used to but after about a month there was a noticeable improvement in my skin. It's the only one of these products I use (I use Cetaphil as moisturizer) but it still works well. I still get (rather small) whiteheads now and then but they usually go away pretty quickly and are a lot less painful than what I previously dealt with. Thanks, Dan!

Inexpensive, large tube, effective, pleasant smell.

This is the best benzoyl peroxide treatment I've used. Very effective.
