Pros:

it works!

Cons:

none

I've tried tons of bp products, and this one is the best for me hands down! It cleared my skin, doesn't irritate and is quite affordable, relatively speaking....simultaneously mild and aggressive....more affordable than Proacitv...LOVE IT!

Pros:

really started to clear my acne in 10 days

Cons:

itchy face
redness

first i felt like it didn't work for me. i used it twice a day, in the morning and evening. it was combined with doxycycline in capsules. slowly, it reduced my acne although when some first days using it i felt so burning in my face, redness, itchy, and a little bit tender. just be patient :)

Pros:

Works for me.
Has a pump.
White to clear color.
Smell isn't too bad.

Cons:

None that I've seen so far.

I tried using the recommended 3 pumps at first, but it was just too much product on my face. It didn't really irritate my skin either, which is good. To measure out the BP, I put it on the middle joint of my middle finger all the way to the tip. That's how much I use. This is probably why I never encountered any dryness, flaking, or irritation. But it's enough to work, because my skin is clearing up. And I have tried so many different products over the past 6 months.

Pros:

Bottle comes with a pump!
8 ounce bottle lasts a long time.
Blends easily into the skin.
Fast shipping, at least in CA.

Cons:

Slight "hospital" scent might bother some (but I like it!).
It can bleach certain fabrics.

I have had acne for years, and I'm glad to finally see a large-sized product with a pump. This is so much easier than using little tubes of acne medicine! I can just pump this out and rub it into large areas like my back. It spreads and blends easily into the skin without leaving a visible residue behind. The texture is great and I actually like the "hospital" scent. For some of you, this might seem more expensive than a drugstore acne cream, but you get so much more per bottle! It would take 9 Neutrogena On-the_Spot tubes to equal one of these, so it's worth it. It's not a miracle cream, but it will help keep skin bacteria under control. Before, I wasn't able to really use acne medication on my back bc the tubes are usually too small. This larger product makes it possible to treat body acne easily. I don't have any irritation, and it helps control the congested pores around my neck and chest area.

Pros:

Great spot treatment
Goes on clear
Clears acne
Reduces redness
Fragrance free

Cons:

Dry,flaky skin
Cracked skin
Burning during the first few days

This is an amazing benzoyl peroxide. I still use it as a spot treatment and it works brilliantly. However I do not recommend it as all over use for "the regimen". It completely destroyed my natural skin texture. I have been off of it for a month and my skin is still peeling and dry. I have to use a lot of moisturizer. I went into this having oily/ normal skin..I now have very dry skin. If you're going to use all over, proceed with caution!

Pros:

This product goes on light and smooth, does not irritate whatsoever. It clears any current outbreaks overnight and prevents new ones. Using it everyday will help you maintain clear, healthy skin.

Cons:

Might take a few days for your skin to get used to it. AVOID EYE AREA!! If your regimen also includes an eye cream...I would use the eye cream first, let it completely absorb/dry before you use the treatment. Also, make sure to let the treatment completely absorb/dry before applying moisure lotion (as the directions state) to further ensure you will not irritate delicate eye skin..

I never had a problem with acne during my teens and early twenties. In my late twenties I got "adult acne" and as a woman a common problem...rosacea in the balls of my cheeks, and little pimples under the skin that never formed a head, and were continually there!! I tried some products from the drug store...they were very harsh for my skin. I also tried proactiv and it bleached all my towels!! Anyway, the acne.org treatment is THE BEST..it goes on light and smooth, does not irritate, and is a reasonable part of a daily routine. I appreciate the discreet packaging in shipment and the bottle itself. I literally cannot imagine life without this product...Im 31 now , so [link removed] you better provide this for another...I dont know...50 years!! xoxox I would not be without it!!!

Pros:

Works.

Cons:

will badly dry your skin if you're not careful.

I'm 31. I've been prone to acne since i was 14. Its horrible being an adult and still having multiple pimples all the time. so when i was 30 i came across this site and decided to give it a try. couldn't hurt i figured. wow am i glad i did. skin wise this has been the best year of my life since i hit puberty. though i have modified how i use it over time. now i use it every other day. i put it on, and once it dries compleatly i use a dry bath tower and GENTLY rub my face clear of any grittiness. then i apply a fair amount of oil of olay regenerist (because i'm allergic to the moisterizer on this site as i am to many many things). on opposing days i apply the AHA+ followed by the regenerist again. every 6 or 7 days i give my skin a break and just moisterize. every morning i apply sunblock. never leave the house without it. the results- my skin is clear and soft and i'm happy each time i look in the mirror.

Pros:

Works!
Non-scented, didn't cause redness or peeling

Cons:

Bleached my pillows

I had horrible hormonal acne after going off the Pill that was made much worse by Carley's treatment. I bought this in desperation and without much hope but it worked beautifully. Within a week my skin calmed down and after about six or eight weeks, all the active acne was gone. Initially I used it every night after washing my face with a mild cleanser - now I use it about twice a week because I rarely have active pimples. If I feel a breakout coming on, I start using it nightly again. It works on everything, whiteheads, blackheads, red pimples and cysts. Really really amazing product! I'm thinking of giving the Acne.org Glycolic Acid a try to see if it can clear up the left-over red marks. My advice to ladies to who are planning to go off birth control is to start using this about a month or two BEFORE you quit the Pill. According to my dermatologist, BP works best as an acne prevention measure. Wish I'd known that before.

Pros:

-Makes skin look amazing!
-Cheap!

Cons:

Causes skin to flake after a couple weeks of usage, but can be rectified with a moisturizer.

I've used various acne products all my life ranging from benzoyl peroxide to salicylic acid and nothing can beat this product. I am absolutely amazed at the quality of this product and I can promise you that no other acne treatment on the market can beat the cost and effectiveness of this benzoyl peroxide treatment. It not only rid my skin of all blemishes, but helped get rid of lasting scars that took weeks to go away. Bottom line is BUY THIS PRODUCT! And if you're hesitant to put your credit card information down to order this product, I can promise you that this product is not a scam! Dan actually wants to help you!!!!! I also want to add that if you are a teenager dealing with acne like I was and just happened to stumble upon this website. I must clarify that this treatment does take time and must be done religiously day and night to work! It took about two weeks' for my acne to disappear.
