Pros:

Works immediately. Doesn't irritate skin, clears sh*t up FASST. Looking forward to seeing how well it prevents new stuff from forming. Another satisfied customer.

Cons:

the small isn't great, but it's not bad either. There really are no "cons". Great product.

if you have acne, use this stuff. I've used everything, with results that piss me off. This stuff is the real deal holyfield.

Pros:

It actually dissapears on the skin unlike the Neutrogena gel. Its light and is invisible but works excellently.

Cons:

Its not available at stores and it sucks to have to wait for it in the mail.

It rocks. Well worth the wait. Try it and see.

Pros:

glides on smoothly, unscented, no white flakiness like clearasil, affordable, earth- and animal- friendly.

Cons:

none!

this works wonderfully with the rest of the regimen at keeping my skin clear. i'm so glad that i discovered dan kern's products... i was still breaking out at 32 y.o., but got it under control with this bp gel and the rest of the regimen. this is the best stuff that i've ever used. thank you, dan!!

10% Benzoyl Peroxide Lotion/Cream Treatment (store generics)

Pros:

Reduces Inflamed pimples
Great for mild or occasional breakouts
Affordable

Cons:

Not always effective for those with moderate to severe acne (get Accutane!)
May dry or burn face for those with extra sensitive skin
1-5% of this treatment will do nothing. Get 10% only.

This is not a cure for acne. In fact, I only recommend this product to those experiencing mild to fairly mild breakouts or those who very rarely get any breakouts. Great for spot treating those extra inflamed pimples. I HIGHLY recommend the 10% version of this. You can get it for under six bucks if you spend a couple minutes digging for it through the store's generic brands.

Pros:

It works great! I love it! WHEN I can get it from the website without being overcharged by a technical glitch.

Cons:

The website didn't work properly and I got charged twice for the product while being notified that the payment did not go through. Thank goodness I check with my credit card company and discovered this. Otherwise I would have been charged double the cost of the product without receiving it!

Fix your website and don't charge people while telling them the charge did not go through! I love the product but am afraid to order from this website! It obviously does not have a secure payment process.

Pros:

NOTHING

Cons:

Dried my skin
Free radical
Doesn't cure the problem just masks it

I had a a bad breakout and resorted to benzoyl peroxide as a quick fix. It only exacerbated the problem making my skin so dry I couldn't even move my face, the skin started uncontrolabley peeling and became red. NO moisturizer helped I couldn't wear make up because my skin would flake off... I deeply regret this and now use tea tree oil on spots and it dries them up fast without overdrying the surrounding skin..,manuka honey and a sea salt scrub is an awesome exfoliator and moisturizer. benzoyl peroxide is a harsh chemical and although I will not deny that it works, the side effects are way too extreme. They are more holistic ways such as tea tree, mauka honey, vitamin supplements, diet change, and saw palmetto for hormonal acne. Give a more natural attempt a chance it's better for your overall health!

Pros:

Calmed down red cysts in one night, and is slowly killing my acne altogether as the weeks go by! :D the price is UNHEARD OF oz for oz compared to other OFC BP's.

Cons:

If you use to much to begin, your gonna dry up and peel, which can be embarrasing. (this goes away as your skin adjusts, and can be remedied with the acne.org moisturizer.)

I tried it all, and it seems like this is the only regimen that is gives real results aside from accutane.

Pros:

Goes on smooth. Not as rough on skin. Started working within a couple weeks.

Cons:

Dry flakey skin.

I have very sensitive skin and hormonal acne. Irritating products break me out. I've been fallowing Dan's regimen very closely and my skin is almost perfect. I still get small breakouts but they are very minor and go away quickly (if I don't pick at them). I'm able to control the dryness with moisturizer and jojoba oil but I'm still trying to figure out what to do with the flakiness. I was able to apply it twice a day without it being too irritating but I'm trying once a day to control my flakey skin. Overall, better than anything else out there.

Pros:

consistency, how it absorbs into the skin, ability to stop acne in its tracks!

Cons:

NONE!

i used to use on-the-spot BP from another company and it was by far inferior to Dan's product! i didn't use enough of it, it didn't absorb...it was just a mess. however, dan's BP 2.5% is just amazing. only after 3 weeks of using this as well as the entire regimen by dan, i can officially say that i don't have one pimple! i had moderate acne (about 15-20 active pimples at one time). i will tell you that i didn't think this was going to work...after all, i have tried everything just like you. but it did -- BELIEVE IT CAN FOR YOU, TOO! i wouldn't walk, i would RUN to get your wallet to purchase this stuff. i'm a real person. feel free to contact me at my user name on the board. i couldn't be happier to share the news and any tips that i have encountered. you don't have to live with acne. and when i tell you that this is worth a shot, i mean it.
