Pros:

So far it seems to be clearing and preventing new acne, doesn't dry instantly, spreads nicely, doesn't leave behind the white reisdue of neutrogena on the spot.

Cons:

It makes my forhead and nose shiny, It's not a greasy shiny though because I tried wiping it away or rubbing it in but it's already dry!

This product is wonderful, to solve my problem above I use the neutrogena on the spot for my forhead and nose then I use Dan's BP for the rest of my face.

Pros:

It doesn't dry quickly, easy to spread.
Cleared up my breakouts within a week (a miracle!)
A very large quantity and it doesn't smell.

Cons:

Sometimes is leaves a burning sensation on my face if I don't use moisturizer (at night). Otherwise its fine. It does dry your skin like all benzoyle products but thats what moisturizer is for.

This product give you the most bang for your buck. 4 OZ is more than enough for a long time. The consistency of the gel is much better than any spot treatment or those little 1 OZ tubes that other companies make. I've used alot of different benzoyle products and various acne treatments and this one has worked the best.

Pros:

Doesn't irritate my skin, Dries quickly, Large amount. Best thing is that it really works.

Cons:

Is not in Stores.

I have mild acne here and there but when i fly from CO to TX to visit my family my face freaks out. So this time I bought this before I left for TX and it did a wonderful job. My face hardly freaked out and stayed clear for the most part.

Pros:

smooth & clear
far less abrasive than 10%B.P. w/same effectiveness
can be worn under make-up

The regimen has worked wonders in only a couple of days for me! I've literally tried everything from retin-a, home remedies, etc. for the past decade, but this has been amazing! It makes sense to gently layer it on. Think about it this way: it would be as if you're marinating something, the more you put on and longer it sits, the better it stays. I also put aloe vera gel on top after it dries, but this is for me, it may not work for other people. I was having a hard time leaving the house because my acne was making me feel so ugly, and after only a few days I have cleared up significantly. The price is also super cheap (to me) when you think about it. It's 4oz. for 8.50 rather than a 1oz tube for $5.60. I don't mind the shipping either, this is a GREAT deal!

Pros:

I have been using this for well over a year and it has kept me clear! Some tubes seem to be more watery than others but it doesn't seem to affect the results. This stuff is even better than the prescrip 2.5 bp I used! Wish it was a little cheaper.

Cons:

Not available locally. Wish I had it in high school!

The best acne product I have used. Been on every acne drug there is besides 'tane as well. I probably won't ever buy another acne product besides this one. For a good moisturizer (for men), I find that Baxter's of CA moisturizer is perfect on top of this.

Pros:

Gets rid of redness, decreases the size of pimples, dries quickly, skin looks so much healthier, very effective, inexpensive.

Cons:

there is no such thing as PERFECT. It can be a little drying, but that's how it works. which is why you should never forget to moisturize after applying the Benzoyl Peroxide.

This is the only product that has ever worked for me as I am sure it will work for you if you repeat the steps carefully as instructed by Daniel Kern. Yup, Dan's the Man :) I cannot thank you enough.

Pros:

Effective. Nice texture. Good quantity. I like how it is fragrance-free.

Cons:

A little wet and takes a little while to dry. Hard to get the last remains out of the bottle.

It is an acne treatment that works and is at an affordable price unlike when I was on Proactive. I was also using 10% BP at one point, but that stuff dried out my skin like no other. This BP does not dry out my skin at all and I was surprised with its rather quick results! People have complimented on my clear skin a lot now. I don't even have to wear makeup anymore.
