Acne.org’s Real World Take
A more dangerous way of using benzoyl peroxide that studies show works a bit better than benzoyl peroxide alone. However, when used properly, benzoyl peroxide on its own can completely clear the skin without the addition of antibiotics.

Cons:
ITCHES WHEN APPLIED AND WHEN WASHED OFF FACE ALSO ITCHES, STILL GET BRAKOUTS, SKIN FEELS DRY AND LOOKS DRY.
AFTER JUST ONE NIGHT OF USING THIS PRODUCT ABOUT 3 PEOPLE THOUGHT THAT MY SKIN LOOKED BETTER. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS PRODUCT WAS THE REASON BECAUSE I GOT ABOUT 8 SHOTS OF COTIZONE IN THE FACE, SO IT MITE B THE CLINDOXYL OR IT COULD BE THE COTIZONE BUT MY FACE HAS SHOWN LITTLE INPROVEMENT BUT STILL HAS A LONG WAY TO GO

Pros:
clears up skin relatively fast, no burning sensations or dry skin unlike other topical acne medications, evens out skin complexion, reduces excess sebum, also gets rid of scars
Cons:
i find it a little bit inconvenient that i have to wash it off
Ever since I started getting acne 5 years ago, I have basically tried every acne medication available. Including acutane, which actually left me with permanent liver damage, SWEET. However back to the point, clindoxyl is the best of all acne medications that I have used. It has never failed me, and my skin has never been in a better condition than it currently is.

Pros:
it completely dryed out all my pimples in one week.Works really fast!
Cons:
Really dried my skin completely, it feels extremely tight and painful to smile/eat, and skin started to peel non uniformly, so there are some dark old skin patches and some new skin.
Try it out! But see how sensitive your skin is!

Pros:
Works well and removes redness. Breakouts are not as visible as before. It's good for protecting your entire face or for treating individual zits.
Cons:
Doesn't completely prevent zits. I find that the first day after putting it on a new zit will make it bigger, before it gets smaller the next day. Though that isn't a huge problem.
I've used this for a while and have seen a noticable decrease in the acne. I used to have the worst acne in school and now I definately don't. It works great.

Pros:
It's working it's way to clearing my skin and it doesn't dry my skin out alot cuz I have very oily skin.

A small amount. I don't know how to ask my doctor for another prescription when I'm done.
Love it. Use it, you'll love it too! It really works!
