Pros:

90% clearer skin, helps pimples go away faster, prevents oiliness

Cons:

It took a while to get used to it. I had to go through an embarrassing one and half month stage where my skin was noticeably flaking off everywhere. I also think the shipping prices are too high.

The miracle treatment to get rid of acne! Make sure you follow the instructions exactly. For the first two months I was doubtful about this working until I found out I was using way less than I should have been. Once I started using the correct amount my acne cleared in about two months. Having struggled with acne for 6 years, I have tried almost everything (even Accutane) and nothing I tried got my skin as clear as this. I still have a few small blackheads here and there, but even when they do erupt into zits they go away quickly and are easily covered with makeup. My skin is also less oily. USE THIS PRODUCT. YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!!

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! 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:

Goes on smooth, dries quickly, does not over-dry.

Cons:

The packaging gets a little annoying. Even using the method Dan used, I've had to cut the bottle open at times just to get out the rest of the product out.

This is the best BP treatment I have ever used. I have extremely oily skin and it dries as I smooth it over my face. I have never used a gel BP before and I must say that it is fantastic. It (along with the rest of Dan's regime) cleared my acne up completely within 2 and a half months. I don't have a single blemish on my entire face. That's unheard of considering my history of acne.

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:

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:

big packaging, consistency

Cons:

irritating, made my skin feel weird

i used dan's bp consistently for about 6 months last year. it was ok, i guess...i wasn't satisfied with it enough to keep with it. while it did keep my pimples at bay it never cleared me up 100%...however i did not glop it the amount dan recommended on my skin. the reason i didn't was that it made my skin feel kinda weird, a bit unnatural ..i guess like bp skin! i felt it kind of looked funny too., and makeup never looked right. fyi my acne is usually under the surface except for pimples under my jaw. i would rather find other gentler ways to manage my face for my acne is not severe. but i do think the bp is effective on killing pustules...and i also think this is a wonderful site for all the acne sufferers out there, thanks dan!!

Pros:

goes on clear, easy to use, fairly effective

Cons:

becomes watery when I'm half way through the tube. It was so watery that it slipped from my finger to my new carpet.

Good product but should have warned about shaking well before each usage so that the remaining half of the tube would not have been so watery and wasted.

Pros:

smooth, easy absorption, works pretty well

Cons:

dries skin, but pretty much all acne meds do that

I have dealt with hormone-based acne for a couple years now, meaning as a side effect of birth control. One pill gave me some pretty bad acne, that I had finally gotten under control using this gel and the gentle cleanser. Of course, right after that I switched to the shot (NEVER EVER USE DEPO!) which brought it all right back again times ten. Right now the only thing that even helps at all is this gel, and I had prior proof that it works. Don't put Accutane or other posions in your system, just keep clean and use the 2.5 BP gel.

Pros:

very easy to massge to face comparing with negrogena one. good deal.

Cons:

don't think it work as good as neutrogena one.

i kind of fell it doesn't clean the pore and kill the bacteria as good as netrogena one. but i have to say i like this product much much better than neutrogena one. i hate RUBBING N cream to my face. will stay with this one. thanks, Dan!
