Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Cons:
Have to be consistent about using it, redness increased for 2 days, Step one is a little gooey making it hard to squeeze out.
I used AcneFree when I was about 13-14 and it really worked but then I got lazy and stopped. Now I'm 16 and started using it again because I broke out really bad. I'm on my second week and most of the pimples and blackheads are gone. My skin is less oily too. I love that it doesn't have a fragrance and that the results are quick.

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
I'm 36 and still have problem skin, i was really suprised at how quickly using this cleared up my pimples. i was really sceptical at first but my skin is 100% better even after just a few weeks.
the best bit is that my pores are smaller and cleaner
Cons:
At first it seems overpriced but when i compare it to my other products, cleanser, moisturiser, spot cream etc, it doesnt seem so bad.
i wish the toner was in a larger container. the cotton balls soak most of it up and not much goes onto my face.
Im getting married in two months and really want clear skin, for now im happy to pay the price. It does smell but not badly, it smells like any another spot cream that contains benzoyl peroxide.
botton line is im really happy with the product and would recommend it to anyone to have a go.

Product used: Brevoxyl (Benzoyl Peroxide (4% or 8%) Creamy Wash)
Pros:
It did wonders for me, But I was also taking birth control, both combined I had maybe one zit a month.
Cons:
dried my skin out and made me look a little red cheeked
Help81, did you try getting a higher dosage? The same thing happened to me before I got onto birth control and that was 4%. So my doctor put me on 8%, and I never got another zit after that, but birth control is seriously the acne wonder pill.

Product used: Acne.org (Treatment (Benzoyl Peroxide - 2.5%))
Pros:
It helped with minor acne and redness and kept some whiteheads under control
Cons:
made my skin look dry and lifeless. It did not completely clear up my skin, it did not clear up whiteheads, it gave me pimples every day!!!
Buyer's beware.
I tried Dan's regime for more than month now, and I just stopped this regime because I realized that it is not going to help and I was tired of pasting my face with this BP gel every day, twice a day! I would get breakouts everyday!!

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
Worked really well for both my kids. It cleared up their face acne and body problems
Cons:
Dont order online. Its not worth it. Order from a kiosk because you get it when you need it. No club joining involved.
It works and my whole family and friends all use. You have to be consistent with it and then you will see results.

Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Pros:
-Sometimes you could really feel it working, and it felt really cool to use.
Cons:
-Dried out my skin really really bad. I have burns around my eyes, and around my mouth is really dry. It's flaking and I can hardly move it. My right eye is slightly swollen from the burns and dryness. I didn't really see any improvement in my skin.
At first when I read it on this site, and got it recommended to me by a friend, I didn't really care what the other people said. Boy! Was I wrong. About the third day in, I noticed that it slightly burned when I put a little cover-up around my eyes. (Because I get horrible bruising, and sleep lines.) I ignored it, and went on with my routine, by the fifth day (today) I did my morning usual, washed my face, etc. But as I started to really move around my face, and look at myself in the mirror, I noticed that one eye was slightly swollen. This freaked me out. I started looking closer. It's horribly red around my right eye, and slightly around my left. I called in sick, because I did NOT want to be seen like this. My mouth is so dry, and it hurts.
Bottom line?: I would not use this product again. It dried out my skin because of the high peroxide count, and in the end I did NOT see any improvements like other things I've used.
Pros:
Clears up your skin nicely, no fragrance, started seeing results in the first week
