Pros:

works for everyone i guess...my dermatologist recommended it in combination with aziderm (20%) and benzac (5% now and 2.5% to start)..its the only thing that really worked for me..

Cons:

dries up your skin a little...but once u get used to using it, ure skin gets used to it and dosent react negatively

ITS THE ONLY REAL SOLUTION TO ACNE TREATMENT

Pros:

It works.

Cons:

Red and irritated skin during the first week of use (as expected).

I highly recommend this treatment. I had severe acne on my face (around 10 - 15 at a time). I've tried all kinds of products, over the counter and prescriptions. My dermatologist even put me on birth control and it did not work for my skin. After using the regimen for about two months, my face cleared up. I even saw results after the first try. After years of acne, I've also realized that benzoyl peroxide works better for me than salicyc acide (even though most over the counter products use this as the main ingredient). But Dan's treatment bottle is the best deal given its reasonable price and effectiveness. After three months, I went off the product and still have not had a breakout since, which is great because I've been breaking out continuously and most severely for the past year. Unfortunately, I have some acne scarring from my earlier acne. I wish I had found this website sooner. I highly recommend trying this production.

Pros:

WORKS!! and FAST!! I saw almost immediate results. Very affordable (I've spent 10x's as much on stuff that never worked). Easy, not a million steps involved. Really the best thing is it actually clears up my skin!!!

Cons:

For about the first week my skin was dried out, but I have been on it for about 3 weeks and my skin is no longer irritated by the product. Benzoyl Peroxide does bleach clothes, but I just apply it carefully and make sure I wash my hands.

Try it!! I am 31 and have been dealing with moderate acne my whole life! Its only been 3 weeks and my skin has never looked better! IT WORKS!!

Pros:

It works! No smell. Nice consistency.

Cons:

Dries out skin. I still get the occasional pimple.

I've been using this for over a year now, its the only thing that consistently works to keep me breakout free! I don't use the other acne.org products, I use AcneFree face wash and Olay Complete SPF 15 moisturizer. This is the best combination I've found, and its been working for me for about 5 months now. Only thing about this...it doesn't really stop drying out my skin. If I apply a tad bit too much, I get flaky skin out of the blue. And winter time is flake city around my eyebrows and mouth.

Pros:

Started clearing up my smaller pimples on the first day. By week 4, all my pimples were gone. Makes my skin soft & smooth.

Cons:

The BP stung a lot the first few days but I kept using it daily because I wanted to get rid of my acne BADLY. My entire face was really flaky the first week, but it quickly resolved.

I was a skeptic because I've used everything from low end to high end for my acne and the acne treatments usually works the first few weeks and quits working. This has been the first product that has worked and kept working to stop my acne. Also, small insight, I had waves of breakouts before my skin cleared completely, so don't get discouraged if this happens to you. Keep using it! I still have dark marks from where my pimples were so I'm going to try the glycolic acid AHA cream to fade them.

Pros:

This is great stuff, very effective!

Cons:

None really as long as you follow the regimen.

It works...better than anything else I have used.

Pros:

I sent off for this product hoping it would help my skin, and it did .. for a while. It goes on really clear and vanishes nicely. I don't have huge cysts like I used to.

Cons:

It's too expensive for me to get regularly. And the bottle pump-cap broke within 15 minutes of me opening the package. And after three months my acne has started to get really bad again.

This is probably the most effective product I've ever used on my skin. I use it exactly like Dan has prescribed. But it is definitely not a cure-all. I would say I am perhaps 35 to 40% more clear than I used to be. (Something is better than nothing!) So thank you Dan.

Pros:

The product goes on clear and does not clump with lotion. The bottles contain alot of product for a good price.

Cons:

I've been using Duac in the morn and differin at night for awhile. However, my face was drying out way too much and the Duac clumped with everything. So i purchased this BP and used in for several weeks but it irriated my skin really bad.

Its way to irritating for my skin but would be great for those who have oily skin and toughter skin.
