Works great!
I couldn't find 2.5% BP in Toronto, so I ordered this. The tube is HUGE, and the cost is way less than the 5% BP available locally. The Regimen completely worked for me, my skin has never looked better.

This really works if you use it right.

Pros:

Clears skin completely and consistently
Not very expensive, considering how long it lasts
AHA+moisturizer+jojoba = flawless, soft, radiant skin

Cons:

The redness and dryness you get for the first month while your skin is getting used to the treatment
Benzoyl peroxide bleaches clothes, towels, sheets, etc so you have to be careful

I completely cleared my skin over a year ago by following the regimen to a tee. Then I went off of it, thinking I had cured my acne completely. 6 months later it came back. I went back on the treatment at the beginning of this year and once again, followed each step of the regimen carefully. At first, while my skin was clear, because I have VERY dry skin naturally, it flaked every day horribly. I was constantly in a dilemma of "do I scrub the dead skin off my face, thus irritating my skin and going against the regimen? Or do I leave it and look horrible all the time?" But then I read about introducing AHA a month into the regimen because it exfoliates your skin without having to irritate it, you just use it in place of your moisturizer every other night or mix it with your moisturizer. It supposedly eliminated flakes. I bought it and no lie the first time I mixed it in with my moisturizer my flakes were gone, my skin was glowing and perfectly smooth and still clear. I highly recommend the entire regimen, and I recommend doing EXACTLY as the instructions say. Even someone with extremely dry, sensitive skin like me has had success with it. TWICE.

The only product that works on my acne!

Pros:

very effective if you follow the regimen
doesn't excessively dry out skin like PanOxyl

Cons:

can stain sheets and towels if not careful
have to use it every single day for best results

I thought this benzoyl peroxide was too good to be true, but it works! The thing is you have to be consistent (use it every day) and gentle when applying it for the best results. You also have to moisturize afterwards or the drying will irritate your skin. Basically, I just followed the regimen and it worked like a miracle. I've been using it for two years with stunning results. I have had acne vulgaris since I was 9, tried all kinds of things like PanOxyl and Clindamyacin and all kinds of harsh cleansers that dried out my skin too much and moisturizers that clogged my pores. Sometimes they would help a little bit but they weren't very effective overall. That's until I started using the regimen and it cleared up my skin completely. It changed my life, as silly as that sounds, but it's true.

Works well!

Pros:

Clears me up

I've used this product for around 6 months (3 months on, break, and another 3 months). I have to say, it's the only thing that keeps me clear. I have severe acne and my first time trying it I was cleared up within 2 months. I continued to use it til I ran out. I stopped using the product and began to break out 3 months later. I am now back to using it and slowly, but steadily, getting back to clear skin. Although drying at first, I definitely love this product. It is one that i can't be without!

Love it

Pros:

Goes on smoothly
It works
No residue or white blotches

Cons:

Bleaches fabric/hair
not found online

I have been using this for 6 months and its the only thing that has worked for me. Previously was on minocycline for 2 years, tazorac, benzaclin, epiduo differin and clyndomycin etc. Decided to give it a try when the new year started, it is june now and I have the cleared skin since it all started. I bought the whole kit at first, but then decided the treatment is the most important part. It goes on nicely, you don't really need to use quite as much as it recommends, I have been using 1 finger length morning and night at it works well for me. Seriously thy this, give it a good 2-3 month and you should see significant improvement. My sis loves it too!!

Pros:

Good result
Price is okay
like the liquid form

This is the best product ever. I highly recommend for everyone. As soon as I started using it, I could see the result of it. It would peels your face a little bit, but it is worth it the result.

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:

as good as it gets for what it is... as part of my new regimen it is helping keep me clear. i tried using two pumps and it was making my eyes and neck dry and getting all over my pillow and ruining towels. now I use .75 - 1 pump and my skin is under control and basically clear.

Cons:

my skin looks a bit duller

effective and is non comedogenic...
