Pros:

Very effective, clears acne and prevents new spots from forming, wonderful texture, no bad scent, smooth and non-sticky, very comfortable and non-irritating. Hands down, the best benzoyl peroxide on the market.

Cons:

NONE. Seriously, not a single con.

I love this stuff. I'm 100% clear after using this with the regimen. I cannot say enough great things about this benzoyl peroxide. I've been using this for five years, and I recommend it to anyone struggling with acne. I had no irritation when I started using this product (possibly because I'm a former Pro-Activ user); in fact, it feels so great on my skin that I look forward to applying it after cleansing. It's a wonderful product; I absolutely love it.

Pros:

Minimizes red dots quicker than most products I've used.
Actually clears acne (with the occasion of casual pimples).

Cons:

A little sting at first... when face is a bit dry, but beauty is pain !

Has been itchy in the past-
After a year and few months of using this product, I stopped for a week while I was on a trip. When I started using it again, my whole check began to slowly turn into crisp red.

*** I recommend to use plenty of moisturizer during this treatment.

When I had stopped using this acne after a year and few months, I realized my face would be filled with pimples without it. Basically, this acne treatment helps reduce the acne from being seen. It does a quick, efficient job in clearing acne and making the face look flawless- sometimes. All I can say is that from my experience of acne products, this is by far the only one that actually works on my skin the best.

Pros:

CLEARS SKIN! I'm a aesthetician so I have used and works with TONS of skin care topicals and this benzoyl peroxide is AMAZING! I have used it for prob 6 years now. The couple times I did go off of it to try other products I went back to using it. Love this stuff!

Cons:

You will prob be red and dry initially but keep using it and this will go away.

If you have acne you want gone, buy it!

Pros:

-smoothest BP I've ever used
-clear on skin, no smell
-the 2.5% formula is not nearly as drying
-the price is great! the 16 oz bottle lasted me 6 months
-cleared my acne in 2 weeks

Cons:

-You have to use quite a bit.
-takes awhile to dry and soak in to skin
-still get occasional small pimples
-can be drying if you don't use enough moisturizer

This is the best BP I've ever used and the price is great compared to how much I was spending on small tubes of BP. It goes on very smooth. It cleared my skin in about 2 weeks and I've been able to cut back to using half of what Dan recommends. It has kept me clear for 6 months except for the occasional pimple that usually is small and goes away quickly. I used to have moderate cystic hormonal acne. I use it with Dan's AHA which is a great product also. I use Cetaphil cleanser and moisturizer also. It did turn my skin red at first for maybe 30 min after application but this reaction completely subsided in a week or so once my skin got used to it.

Pros:

fast acne clearing results
takes away redness
evens out skin tone

Cons:

NONE!

I've been struggling for a few years and have tried so many different products for my acne, but NOTHING worked on me . . . until now. I'm so thankful for this product. I've been using it for almost 2 weeks already and my face has gotten so much better and looks a lot clearer in such short amount of time. Totally works -- THANKS DAN!

Pros:

Fabulous

Cons:

Pardon?

Melts into the skin like liquid silk. Really quick to apply. Honestly, I don't even need to use as much Dan suggests. Works amazingly for chest breakouts as well. This...lasts me forever...I have noninflamed acne which the most annoyingly impossible to treat. And I've tried oodles of things, other bp treatments as well. I was really dubious as to if this would work, considering my past endeavors with bp proved helpful but unsuccessful in the end. I really shouldn't have waited so long to order this (i hate ordering things online). I could've bypassed a lot of other experiments. It's just...the miracle, really. So gentle yet so effective. Even after using this for so long, it hasn't lost its potency. At least in my case, this usually happens. No, not Dan's bp!

Pros:

clears up acne - even cystic, skin showed improvement OVERNIGHT! absorbs almost instantly, lightweight, and no odor

Cons:

If you don't follow the directions for use at the very start of treatment then you WILL get a MAJOR amount of dryness and flaking!!! SO, USE A LITTLE AT THE START.

After a week of using the entire Acne.org regimen, my cystic acne is GONE. All I have are the dark spots left on my face where those cysts used to be. OH, and get this, the BP has rid ALL of my blackheads!!! I literally plucked the blackheads off my nose as if I were tweezing my eyebrow hairs hahah! I'm so thankful to Dan and his team! Life-changing for sure :D

Pros:

This product has completely cleared up my acne. My skin is now clear and soft. I am so happy with this product that I am recommending it to everyone I know. Thank you so much for making it!!!

Cons:

Can cause dryness if you don't moisturize enough. Also, you really have to use it every day.

It works. I have never had a product clear up my skin so well. It is a great feeling knowing that I will wake up in the morning with great skin.

Pros:

-It cured all my acne in one month!!
-I have less blackheads (maybe because of the routine of the regimen, that u have to wash 2x per day and be constant)
-Gel formula, goes on nicely

Cons:

Super dry skin
red/orangy face
itchy skin

But it so worth it!!!!

I had acne since my 13s, never been too terrible but in the last couple of years it got worst. Within the years I tried lots of different products but they didn't work at all (Vichy Normaderm, Acniben, Clean and Clear, Asepxia, Loreal Zone, etc.). When I was on birth control pills my acne was controlled so I thought it was an hormone problem and I was about to use birth control pills again until I reach this website! I live in Argentina so I was a little sceptical about buying online, and all that stuff... If it was going to work, if I was waisting my money one more time... But. BUT! Holly cats! What an amazing product! Within 3-4 weeks I was totally acne-free!!! I bought The Regimen (the regular one) and my brother after watching the results on me (i was like a guinea pig) used it too and now we bought The Big Kit Plus. BP made my skin super dry, super flaky, super itchy and very orangy (im super pale, so u can tell) but one month after doing it every day, and using lots of moisturizer (Now I bought the Jojoba Oil to add it to the regimen, it didn't arrive yet so I can't make a review on that) my skin feels pretty normal again, and with no acne at all! I will definetly recommend it, it totally worth every side effect of the treatment and every cent that we pay for it. You have to be really constant and you will see results!!
