Pros:

Um, for starters, it cleared up my face as promised. I will cry if this ever stops working! I've tried everything and this is the one product that "came through"

Cons:

Mildly drying, but that's fine with me for the trade-off.

I love it. I finally like my skin! It looks great, clear, dewy (with a good moisturizer)- I practically don't even need foundation anymore, I'm just using to it even out blotchiness from old acne scars.

Pros:

Worked pretty well but by no means a miracle worker

Cons:

Made my face extremely red, itchy and flaky no matter how much moisturizer i put on

I think i may be allergic to it since it has caused me so much crusting on the face but i also have used proactiv which is also 2.5 % BP.

Pros:

Eliminates acne - fast Goes on smooth - does not clump under my makeup Dries quickly and dries clear - skin felt soft to my surprise

Cons:

so far - even though I was careful to avoid the eyes it somehow crept near that area and it cause the skin under my eyes to puff up a little , very slight itching (so far) and today ever so slightly red Cant get in UK!

Have used this for a week - am very impressed so far. Skin is very close to 100% clear in just a few days. I have mild but consistent acne. I am hoping I do not experience any "initial breakout" Am worried also about my skin becoming dependant on it. The best bp I have ever used - very convenient and easy to wear in daytime too.

Pros:

Works amazingly well. Goes on clear, which is a step up from the neutrogena 2.5 BP.

Cons:

Contrary to what is stated in the products description it does clump up under make-up, but in the scheme of things I dont care. My skin is fantastic thanks to this stuff and the neutrogena BP.

Use it! It is cost effective, goes on nicely and it has improved my skin 100%. I feel as though the neutrogena 2.5 BP might work a little better for my skin so I rotate which BP I use just because it has been working for me and using this BP keeps the cost down. However, I must prefer the consistancy and feel of this product. It soaks in better and it goes on clear so I don't have to wander around the house at night looking like a ghost.

Pros:

Great value, works much better than other BP lotions

Cons:

Consistency is a little grainy, dries me out

The best BP product I have tried so far. I'm much more clear than I have been in the past and it keeps my acne from getting big like it used to get. Definitely worth buying.

Pros:

I have mild acne and within 3 weeks of using this gel I didnt have a single zit on my face.

Cons:

A little bit of drying occurs, but it gets better over time. Now I barely have to put any moisturizer on at all because my skin is used to it.

If you're not convinced... buy the product and try it out!! That's what I did... it's not expensive, and now I'm a believer!

Pros:

Works as is said. :)

Cons:

To follow the regimen, i have to use a big amount each time and that's inconvenient for the rush hours in the morning. Causes flaky appearance but, well, that's normal.

I have no inflamed acne after using it. so cool. ^_^

Pros:

Less acne in one week

Cons:

After 2 weeks my face was extremely dry and full of acne

Worst thing ever!!! I used to have pimples in the T-area of my face so I started using this bp. Even though I started slow, my face got really dry...but since it seemed like it was working, I kept using it but about 3 weeks later I got pimples and bumps all over my face!!. Yes, the pimples were smaller but it was terrible!!! I've stopped using it about 3 weeks ago but the pimples that I got using the bp didn't disappear yet and my face is still a little dry. It's so frustrating because I've never had dry skin or pimples all over my face before!!!
