Pros:

Low % BP and gel form
Not overly drying
Will clear acne when given time to work

Cons:

Not being able to buy it anywhere but online

I started using this when I had to stop Duac because of being pregnant. I tried to do natural acne treatments but they didn't work and when my doctor told me this was okay I went for it. My skin was a mess and I noticed this clearing up acne right away. It did take a good 8-9 weeks for my skin to clear up completely and for the post-acne redness to fade. This a great product and I will continue using it post baby! I also used Cetaphil gentle cleanser and Cetaphil lotion with this product.

Pros:

-Almost completely fixed my acne
-Once it dries on my face it is basically invisible, so I don't worry about being seen with the medication on my face
-Extremely good price for Benzoyl Peroxide

Cons:

-Dried out my skin initially (but after a few weeks my skin got used to it and the dryness stopped)
-Causes a feeling of dryness in my eyes the next morning when I apply the product to skin on my upper cheeks overnight
-Can cause bleaching if it gets on clothes (some of my t-shirts have some fading around the neckline from the product rubbing onto them)

I struggled with acne for many years and tried many different products. This is the only product that has been able to consistently control my acne to what is usually an unnoticeable level. I have been using the product for over a year and will continue to do so. Daniel Kern is a personal hero to me for creating this product.

Pros:

Inexpensive
Great Value
Easily absorbs into skin
WORKS wonders!

Cons:

None

I would highly, highly recommend this product to anyone that needs BP. Another brand that sells 2.5% BP as a moisturizer only gives you a 1.7oz tube and it sells for $20! I have been using that until mine came in the mail and have been doing the regimen with the products I have and my skin has already done a complete turn around, so I was extremely happy to get Dan's better value products in the mail, as mine were high end and would be extremely expensive to continuing using those. I can't say enough great things about Dan's products! The regimen has changed my life, literally.

Pros:

It is fast absorbing and quickly dries.

Cons:

Causes flakiness and itchy skin during the first month or so.

I have had acne since my early twenties. I have tried everything from accutane, antibiotics, Proactiv,murad, etc. I have finally found something that works and I couldn't be happier. My skin is clear and the AHA has decreased my red scars so much I can barely see them. I am not wearing a lot of makeup because there is nothing to cover up! I am so happy with this entire line and will continue to be faithful to the regimen.

Pros:

I now have perfect skin

Cons:

My skin was very flaky & red for some time. It has taken about 6 months to be totally clear

You need to use this product at least twice a day and carry on with it even when you are still scaley and spotty. My spots gradually got less but it took 6 months + to be totally clear. I now use it once a day and have pretty clear skin apart from maybe one or two around my jaw line during hormonal days

Pros:

When I first started the regimen I used Dove bar soap as my face wash, then applied the cream over my face. Start off by applying a little everyday then add a more. I did just as daniel said. I washed my face for 10 to 15 seconds. Every morning and night I used the cream everyday for a few months. My acne was completely gone and I didn't even have to buy any more because it hasn't came back. This is the best acne product I have ever used! I'll never use anything else. Thank you daniel!!!!

Cons:

If you have sensitive skin, start off by using a little because it can leave your skin extremely dry.

Best product for acne, I recommend to anyone who has acne!!! Only thing that has worked for me and I have tried everything. It's simple, natural and effective.

Pros:

I cleared up FAST, within days, not weeks. As a 46 year old with acne like a teenager, I have tried everything out there, with no success. I followed The Regime exactly like I was told (a first for me, lol) and it worked exactly as promised, except faster! I had only a few days of excessive dryness and kept piling on the moisturizer.

Cons:

It does do a number on bleaching towels, pillow cases, and sheets, but I don't care, my skin looks fabulous!

It works, period. My skin looks great, I'm not even wearing foundation or concealer any more. I don't feel like I need it. I'm 2 months into it and have found that I can now use it once a day to keep my skin clear. I am thrilled and very impressed!
