Topical Keratolytic
Acne.org’s Real World Take
Easy to find and with low side effects, but don’t be surprised if you are left wishing for better results after using it for a while. Any acid on its own is unlikely to dramatically clear acne.

Product used: Neutrogena (Oil-Free Anti-Acne Moisturizer)
Cons:
doesn't work as well after a while...hard to find at stores so you have to buy online which is a rip off. Also the tube is small
It's a good moisturizer and fights acne at the same time. In the beginning it shrank every new pimple I got, but now it takes a while to get rid of them...but it still does the job. By the way, I just got off accutane for the second time, so maybe my skin texture changed.

Product used: Clearasil (Maximum Strength Pore Cleansing Pads)
Pros:
It removed a lot of dirt from my face, and left my skin feeling clean.
Cons:
My skin burned a little. The pads ripped and were very watery.
Try them! They do an OK job, but maybe you should stick with the regular cleanser.

Product used: Clearasil (Daily Face Wash, Sensitive)
Pros:
Easy to dispense. Foamed up well and smells pretty good (like soap.) Made my face feel clean, but not a whole lot less oily
Cons:
It worked like soap for me, cleaned dirt, but not really oil. I decided not to use it because i thought it would be better to use less products on my skin and this one wasnt doing much anyways
I wouldnt recommend it for acne. It cleaned dirt off my skin but didnt clean off any more oil then water would.

Product used: Clean & Clear (Advantage Acne Spot Treatment)
Pros:
This product works better than Murad!!!! And it smells great...
Cons:
The tube is sensitive.
This product has helped my skin clear up a lot. I used Nature's Cure for several months, but that stopped working and my breakouts were getting bad. This product was bought out of my desperation... and I am glad I bought it. Hopefully it keeps working, but right now I am happy with the results.

Pros:
It does it's job of removing acne, it smells wonderful, and makes your face feel super clean.

It drys out your face too much. I would recommend a good moisturizer after using this product.
This product works really good and it smells great. It removed most of acne and I love the sensation when using this product. It left my face also looking younger.

Product used: Aveeno (Clear Complexion Daily Moisturizer)
Pros:
See below.
Cons:
See below.
I like it for the upper half of my face. It's nice and smooth and keeps my skin even. But below my nose and especially on my chin, I have more zits than I've ever had in my life! So, I guess I'll try something else.
