Cons:
It burns like hell. It made my skin very flaky and scaley!!
Pros:
It did fade my red marks a little bit.
Cons:
Made my face itch really badly for the first few minutes after application. Like you want to scratch off my whole face. No burning. Itching decreases after a few weeks of daily use.
Pros:
it seems to work at first
Cons:
it's kind of useless
Cons:
itchy...
Pros:
fades red marks
Cons:
itches...goes away after like 3 weeks, seems to do nothing for acne, still breaking out
Pros:
it seems to work, but ive only been on it for a week.. it also makes my face feel smoother
Cons:
it does itch at first... but thats about it
Pros:
It seemed to clear my skin a little at first
Cons:
Stinging on application, tight stinging itchy dry skin, acne as bad as ever but now with the addition of the dry red areas around my mouth and nose
Pros:
red marks are fading, reduced break outs
Cons:
mild stinging and itching after application
Pros:
works well, on acne and scarring. way less painful/unpleasant/drying than other acne treatments. it's also not nearly as intensive a treatment as a retinoid (no liver effects, no photosensitivity).
Cons:
a little itching and burning when you first apply the product. it goes away after a couple of weeks, and you can minimize the effects by only applying the cream to completely dry skin.
Pros:
It is the only thing that works for my acne.
Cons:
It is quite expensive and difficult to find in Canada (where I'm living now). In Europe it can be found in any pharmacy and some pharmaciens sell it without prescriptions.
Pros:
None, i can think of.
