Pros:

Clears skin
Helps new pimples heal faster
The gel glides on and is easy to use

Cons:

Dries skin
Can cause a bit of reddness and chapping

I have adult onset acne, much worse then I ever experianced in my teen years. My skins has become worse and worse after age 26, and 3 years ago I went off birthcontrol and my face exploded!! The derm put me on Ziana gel and oral minocyclin. I liked having to only use the gel at night, very conveniant but the gel was so harsh and really irritated my skin. I was diagnosed with an ulcer and had to quit the antibiotic, that was obviously the only thing helping because I broke out very bad again, espesially around my mouth! I am on week 5 of the regimen, my skin is clearing up slowly but surely!! I just started using AHA+ every other night and I can already see a difference in the dark spots around my mouth from recent acne. I use Dan's treatment, cleanser, jojoba oil, and aha+, though I use Cerave moisturizer because I LOVE it and don't need to switch that! Stick with this and give it a try, it truelly does work!

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!

Cons:

Make my skin so dry. Personally, i have dry skin and this product make it even worse

After all, I am still very glad to buy this product. I'd rather have a dry skin than having acne problem. And using moisturizer help my skin feel better now.

Pros:

It works
It's a gel
It's not very drying

Cons:

none

I was previously using Benzaclin in the PM and Differen in the AM. But my face was getting really dry, red, and I would always have to worry if I was peeling or not. Now I use this stuff in the AM and PM along with Differen at night. So much less irritating.

Pros:

effective
continuous
clean feeling
perfect for sensitive skin
best thing I've ever used
huge bottle

Cons:

a bit drying (obviously with bp)
skin still somewhat oily

This product works. I've been using it for a couple of months thinking that it is "too good to be true." I wake up every morning in hopes of clear(er) skin, and IT IS! It's quite amazing. After having acne from age 12, every produce I have tried (beside extreme prescriptions) have worked the first few days only. This Benzoyl Peroxide works continuously and I am finally having clear skin at the age of 21. Even if you are skeptical, just try it. It's $20, just a normal meal price, and not to mention an extreme self-confidence booster. You must follow Dan's Regimen listed on this website though; it helps out SO much. Good luck for whoever else discovers this miracle product!

Pros:

works quickly
does not dry skin
low cost
The 8 oz tube lasts a long time

Cons:

none for me

I had teenage acne. I obtained two different products for my acne from a dermatologist over a period of a year and neither worked for me. I ordered your product which I use as instructed and everyone has noticed a difference within 2 weeks. I would say my acne has cleared up 80% Very happy with my new appearance. I will certainly recommend your product to anyone. The price is a present to all of us who have limited funds to spend on acne products when saving for college is a priority.

I would recommend this to anyone who has nodular, cystic acne like myself. Works very quickly (almost over night) and does not irritate my skin.

Pros:

It's the only Treatment that's worked.

Cons:

Like most treatments, it will probably dry your skin out a bit. I can't use it every day because my skin would be too dry and flaky.

I've tried many products, none seemed to make an improvement. As a last effort before I went to see the derm. again for more options, I decided to give this a try. I'm really glad I did. My acne isn't gone, but its 80-90% better.

Pros:

Spreads well, absorbs fast, feels great

This stuff absolutely rocks. It goes on great and I like the mild smell it has. It seems to irritate my skin less than other BP treatments as well. Oh yea, and it works!
