Causes my face to be a little dry, but nothing you can notice to much.

Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Pros:
It lightens sking tone and evens it out. In the first few days it removed all my acne.
Cons:
It irritated my sking and dried is out there was allot of people and it burned. Also it stops working at a certain point and your acne comes back even worse.
I wouldn't recommend the product it swears it better than proactive. No wonder its cheap its crappy. I felt fooled when i bought it. It like there should be a sighn that says cautian results lasting aren't gaurenteed.

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
It works well, didn't dry my skin out. Works seemingly overnight.
Cons:
It may dry your face out a little
I had a FRIGGIN HUGE pimple on my nose. It was horrible omg. I didn't want to go to work let alone school, and everywhere else i had to go. I was desperate and called my mom and she told me to use proactive. She brought it to me and i used it the same night. The NEXT DAY! I saw a significant reduction. it wasnt gone all the way but it was about 60% Wayy better then it was before. THANK GOD AND HIS INFINITE WISDOM TO BLESS ME WITH THIS PRODUCT. I have sensitive skin and it worked great for me. The best thing I have ever used! Worked for me. :)

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
Smells good... works only for a couple of months.
Cons:
It stopped working after using it for 2 years... Its very expensive and they kept sending me a million boxes. I've stopped using it and now i'm terrified of what my skin will end up looking like,
Dont ever use it... it gets addictive and when you finally give up on it, you're paranoid that you're going to end up with severe acne. I advise you to never use this product... the reason why they use famous people to sponser in their commercials is because they're rich enough to keep buying it.

Pros:
I have been using Nature's Cure for many years (off and on of course) and it REALLY works... I tried that crap Proactive and many Nuetrogena products and all they did was make my breakout areas worse!
Cons:
Forgetting the pill was one of thing i found the hardest...never the evening dosage...always the morning >.<
if you are suffering from problem acne and need a quick fix i highly recommend Nature's Cure!

Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Pros:
Cheap
Cons:
It stinks, Does not clear skin, burns skin & Makes acne worst
I used the acne treatment for a few days just for a few bumps now its way worst then before and nothing works to clear my skin atleast back to how it was. THIS IS A HORRIBLE PRODUCT!

Product used: Acne.org (Treatment (Benzoyl Peroxide - 2.5%))
Pros:
goes on smoothly, absorbs quickly, non fragrance, works, cheap
Cons:
none
Firstly, BP dries peoples' skins. So people, stop complaining. That's the nature of BP. Anyway, glad that I got that off my chest.
I've used several brand named BP and they were gritty and watery and they weren't cheap. Once I started using this, I tell you, I will not want to go back using other brands. Once I applied this stuff on my face, is heavenly smooth.
I am telling you, for the quality this stuff should cost a lot more. I am very happy I ended up trying Dan's BP.

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
cleared pimples, reduced scarring, easy to use & affordable.
Cons:
when you stop using it pimples come back quickly & sometimes
worst then when you first started. Have to keep up with it, every morning and night not enough solution for two months.
it cleared my face a lot. my scares dulled down, and my face became completely clear after a couple months, you notice change after about a week of using it. however, when i missed washing my face a couple times pimples came back way quicker then when they went away, not good for sensitive skin. i also didn't have enough to last me two months but it was very affordable and worth the 20$ . the mask works the best.
Pros:
It works great, cleared everything on my face within three days.
