Pros:

Works really well
Cleared up my acne quickly
Much cheaper than other things I tried
Also helps with ingrown chin hairs
Sinks in quickly

Cons:

I have slight flakiness around the outside of my eyes even though I don't put the Treatment there. I consider this a minor con and its easily fixed with a drop or two of jojoba.

I started the regime using "on the spot", Cetaphil Cleanser and Cetaphil Moisturizer. I was thrilled that it worked and worked quite quickly. I love Cetaphil so I've decided to stick with those products but for convenience I decided to order a tube of the 2.5% BP Treatment from acne.org and it works so much better. It sinks into my skin better, its not as white as the on the spot cream and I find it gentler (or maybe my skin became more accustomed to the BP). I find the acne.org treatment gel cost effective and great on my skin.

Pros:

Works great, good consistency, not gritty, big bottles last forever!

Cons:

Will bleach clothing, may be irritating

I started developing acne for the first time in my 30s, and I was desperate for something to work. I tried the Clinique line which worked great, but was so pricey. I decided to get the big bottles of the cleanser, the treatment, the moisturizer, and the AHA and I am so glad I did. I would purchase them again, except for the moisturizer. I like the Neutrogena oil-free moisturizer better, so I use this moisturizer now as a make-up remover.

Pros:

Clears skin
Prevents breakouts
Smoothe skin

Cons:

Dryness - flaking skin
Redness at first

This is a great product. Once you use it you will never want to use neutrogena on-the-spot 2.5% BP because this product is clear and gel based and absorbs very well. If you can manage to take the time to do the regiment correctly two times a day, you will be able to overcome the dryness and achieve clear skin. I haven't used Dan's jojaba oil but from what I hear it is the perfect for combatting dryness. Good luck!

Pros:

Extremely effective on acne as well as acne marks.

Cons:

Dries skin

I have used this product every morning and night for about four months, and my skin is almost completely clear. I use the AHA as my moisturizer twice a day as well because my skin can become very dry and even flaky. I have never had such long lasting results. If you follow Dan's regime it will absolutely work. I saw immediate results in the beginning, but still experienced minor breakouts for 1-2 months. But now I rarely breakout and my skin tone is much more even.

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:

Clears skin, dries clear, large quantity for a good price

Cons:

Dries out skin, bleached fabric

This is hands down the best acne topical on the market. I've tried everything and this products is the most effective, especially compared to other benzol peroxide products with a higher percentage of bp. My acne is light to moderate, but stubborn. I'm not using the Acne.org Regimen as I really don't like to wear topicals during the day (I live in Southern California and really can't escape the sun). I use a generous amount every night, wait for it to dry, then moisturize and add a little more treatment to problem areas. When I wake everything has shrunk significantly. As much as the fabric bleaching drives me crazy, just use with caution. I love sleeping with my face to the pillow, but at the end of the day it is an awful habit and this product is helping me break it. Give it a try. It's a very fair price for the amount. Many thanks to Dan for producing such a quality product at a fair price.

Lasts a very long time, clears acne better than any prescriptions I have ever tried, such as differin gel, acanya, antibiotics, epiduo, and tazorac, very affordable compared to prescription medications, GREAT option for anyone wanting clearer skin!

Cons:

NONE

This is a great product and I thank Dan Kern immensely for all that he has done with Acne.org and the regimen! It is truly worth all of his time and effort, and I believe he has made lots of people very happy including myself! Thanks Dan
