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.

Pros:

Doesn't leave skin feeling dry like most other BP ointments.

Pros:

Clears out even the most stubborn acne, affordable and prevents future acne.

Cons:

Will leave skin very dry.

I recieved a traveler size from a friend who said this stuff really helped cleared her acne and I was hesistant at first, but it honestly works really well. I have specific spots on my face that likes to break out from time to time and I use the BP to clear it out quickly and prevents future acne. I don't use it everyday because my acne severity is light, but I use it when I need it and it's something that I think everyone should have!

Pros:

-Best percentage of Benzoyl Peroxide, so it doesn't dry out your skin
-Cleared my acne in less than 3 days
-Lots of product in a little travel size bottle which is what i've used for a year! During that year, i've had the clearest skin of my l

Cons:

-it's not full proof, but always better than other products!

I'm not a person with much acne in the first place, but every week before my period and during I would break out just a bit, maybe two or three big pimples on my forehead. It doesn't sound bad, but up close they look awful and were extremely painful. Once I used this treatment though, it goes away in an extremely short amount of time. If I catch it before the acne breaks through my skin, I can even get rid of it before it really shows. Overall, this product works amazingly as an on-the-spot acne treatment. I can't live without it, and I always try to recommend it to my friends who have tried products like pro-activ and the new system by Clean and Clear. They haven't gotten the best results, but have expressed interest in this product because of my clear skin as a result of it. I have extremely dry and sensitive skin as well, so this product is my holy grail product! Thanks Daniel for creating such a wonderful product, and keeping my skin clear!

Pros:

I am 38 years old and have struggled with acne since my teenage years. I have tried everything including accutane which only worked for a few years. This product with the regimin has been absolutely amazing. Thank you Dan. I have beautiful skin!!

Cons:

Nothing but taking the time to do the regimin correctly.

This product has produced incredible results and there is nothing even close to this product on the market in this volume and at this price. I really have done it all and am so happy to have these prodicts. Cleared my skin in 3 months.

Pros:

Very Gentle, No irritating fragrance, and very effective and affordable!

Cons:

A little bit drying, but not bad compared to most b.p.'s.

Wonderful product, great consistency, and affordability. I wouldn't change a single thing :) Keep it going, Dan!

Pros:

Everything about the regimen is great except for the new packaging. Having had acnes for years, I have been using the regimen for the past 4.5 years and my skin has been clear. I am extremely grateful to Dan for the work he has done.

Cons:

I find the new 8oz and 16oz packaging incredibly fiddly to use and extremely user unfriendly. I have now given up and just transfer all the contents to a lidded container which I can access easily.

While I applaud the decision to introduce larger, more economical sizes, how a container design like this one could have been chosen defeats me. Also why not retain the old 4oz tube and provide some continuing choice about preferred container? There is a saving of precisely 48 cents between 2x4oz tubes and 1 8oz container - hardly a huge amount which indicates that the 40z tube remains economical.

Pros:

Gets rid of Acne Realllllllly Fast! Dries them up!

Cons:

Turns my face BEAT red.. and i dont have sensetive skin, and i am naturally tan.

Great as a nightly treatment, NOT durning the day, unless you want to look like as red as an apple. Im not allergic to Benzoyl Peroxide Either, i know im not because Proactiv Didnt bother me at all, and that also contains 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide. GREAT AS A NIGHTLY TREATMENT, THOUGH!
