Pros:

huge bottle for the price, smells okay, doesn't burn, minimal skin peeling/flaking, spreads easily, dries quickly

Cons:

have to order online

I would definitely recommend this product. I've been using Dan's Starter Kit (cleanser, moisturizer, treatment) + jojoba oil for about a month now and I've really noticed a difference. I'm getting fewer zits, and the ones I do get are much smaller. My skin tone has really improved, and even my scarring is fading, which is probably thanks for the jojoba oil. :)

Pros:

Cleared up my chin acne!

Cons:

mild drying at first.

I am in my early forties and have always broken out on my chin. I have tried many over the counter and prescription remedies and nothing seemed to work long term. I found this and immediately started with the over the counter items. I then ordered the travel size kit. I have been amazed at the results in just one-two weeks. I am now a believer. I will never go back to proactive or anything else. One tip I learned is that benzol peroxide bleaches towels. It took me a while to figure it out, but they are making bleach-friendly towels that work with benzol peroxide. Life is great. No acne and no bleach marks on my towels!

Pros:

spreads easily, does not burn, can't notice its on, does not interfere with other layers (moisturizer, makeup, etc), dries fast, does not overly dry skin, cheap for huge tube

Cons:

stains towels if you don't rinse your hands good enough

I've been on many benzoyl peroxide treatments and I've never had any that work quite like Dan's. It is so easy to put on and it doesn't irritate my skin or dry out my skin like other bp products have. I've personally been on the regimen for about a week, maybe a week and a half and I've noticed a 100% improvement. I've been coming to this site for years and refused to try Dan's treatment because I thought it was a scam, but it's really not. If only I hadn't been so stupid back then! lol

Pros:

Dries up any existing breakouts and stops new ones breaking out!
Invisible gel. Easily absorbed. No animal testing or animal products.

Cons:

A light medication smell but nothing horrendous.
As expected, as covered in the acne.org FAQs, took a few weeks for me for my skin to get used to it (was quite red at first) but it was worth sticking with it.

I stopped taking minocycline as I'd had enough of taking drugs and was looking for an alternative and found acne.org. Now I no longer have to take drugs! It works! Give it time and make sure you follow all the instructions on acne.org and read all the FAQs.

Pros:

none

Cons:

EXTREMELY dry and irritated skin. No improvement for acne...I think it actually got worse :(

I followed this regimen religiously for 6 weeks and not only was my skin extremely dry and irritated, my acne didn't clear up at all. I think all the irritation actually made my acne worse - my skin was flaky/peeling/red and hurt to touch or even move. This may work for some people, but I found out that my skin is very sensitive to benzoyl peroxide.

Pros:

My skin cleared up in about 1.5 months, and within that time frame I didn't even use it everyday. I put thick layers of benzoyl peroxide to make sure it's doing its job, and guess that wiped out all bacteria colonies b/c I don't have acne anymore!

Cons:

Irritated for the first two weeks, so I stopped using it for a few days, but later I gave it a second chance. I found out the Acne.org moisturizer made my skin irritated, so I switched to Cindy Crawford's Meaningful Beauty moisturizer.

GET IT. It definitely works! I have acne for 11 years and nothing seems to work. Thank god I didn't give up on this product. Now I haven't had any acne since. It's incredible!!!! Just don't give up on this product, and try it for a month. Thanks Dan and the team!

Pros:

Overall, good stuff. It cleared me up after consistent use.

Cons:

The effects did diminish over time.

I use this a more of a spot treatment now. It worked fine for awhile, but I suspect that my body started to get use to it. But, I would highly reccomend the treatment to anyone suffering from acne.

Pros:

Worked as soon as I started using it. Easy to follow regimen.

Cons:

When I was using it....none

Great product as for more than a year it helped me have a great junior and senior year in high school with clear skin and only a few breakouts here and there that would go away in a day or 2. However, just this summer my face broke out horrendously and now the regimen just doesn't seem to work anymore. I still recommend it cause maybe your face won't become immune to it like I think mine did. Well, off to the dermatologist this week now :(
