Cons:
dry skin, peeling/flaking.. doesnt prevent new break outs.
Pros:
No more cystic acne
Fewer blackheads
Cons:
Tons of small whiteheads on my chin and cheeks, when I never had them before.
Pros:
Did clear up an existing acne breakout very fast. No chemical smell or sticky/oily residue.
Cons:
Extreamly drying. It's caused redness, peeling and minor swelling and moderate pain on my face. Don't use if your planning to attend any event where photos will be taken as for the first few weeks you skin may look way worse than previously.
Pros:
None.
Cons:
-Extreme dryness even with moisturizer
-made acne 100x worse (w/ 5 months of use)
-not good for sensitive/combination skin
-acne scarring
-breakouts spread from initial area
Pros:
skin feels softer, a very small "glow-ness" factor that you can tell it looks a slightly better, perhaps an even tone on the cheek areas that has improved
Cons:
takes a LONG time, break outs never seem to be under control, you don't really see any progress, I don't know if anybody really has that kind of real world time to wait for this stuff to work.
Pros:
Smells alright.
Cons:
Stopped working, like all topical treatments. Need to use stuff orally also to work.
Pros:
brings clogged pores to surface so you can easily wash away dirt
Cons:
reddness, flushing, rosacea, still broke out, sunburn-like face 24/7
Pros:
it will clear up most acne
Cons:
it dried out my skin to the point of pain and made me extremely sensitive to the sun.
Pros:
makes swelling go down a little.
Cons:
drys out skin terribly.
Pros:
feels good on skin, doesnt smell terrible like other products, isnt overly drying,
Cons:
does cause mild dryness, differin being a topical retinoid it does cause an initial breakout but even then im not breaking out as much as normal
Pros:
helped a little?
