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: Clean & Clear (Advantage Acne Spot Treatment)
Pros:
NONE
Cons:
Does NOT work for individuals with sensitive skin!
Don't buy this product if you have sensitive skin! I baught this product in Feburary 2010, and i'm still dealing with the consequences. Upon using it before bed i woke up with a huge black spor of the spot where i applied a little touch of it, and upon washing my face it peeled away, i was left with a hole in my face and the compnay only reimbursed me the $12.99 i payed for the product. Now my skin has healed but it has triggerd minor acne compared to the rare one or two break outs i would have before...and little irritation bumps. I currently switched over to neutrogena and its been working wonders for me, i just need to find something for the dark marks it left!

Product used: Neutrogena (Rapid Clear Acne Defense Lotion)
Pros:
None
Cons:
This is NOT, I repeat NOT for sensitive skin!! I have sensitive combination skin. The first couple of days I used it, I liked it, but wondered why the shine control didn't really work. However, after about a week, I had a reeeeeeeaaaally bad allergic reaction to it. My normally pale skin swelled up and turned red. My face got shiny within minutes of using this product!!! Don't use this if you have sensitive skin!!!!
DON'T BUY IF YOUR SKIN IS SENSITIVE!!!!!!

Product used: Neutrogena (Deep Clean Astringent, Oil-Free)
Pros:
It's easy to use
Cons:
This product is HORRIBLE! It does nothing, and I use it three times a day.
Do NOT buy this product. It may work for some people, but NOT me. I have very sensitive skin and it's very painful. It bothers my skin and just leaves embaressing red bumps.
Pros:
its works really really well
