Topical Keratolytic
Acne.org’s Real World Take
Due to its antimicrobial properties and ability to absorb skin oil and dry out the skin, sulfur has been used for thousands of years for various skin conditions, including acne. However, it is normally reserved for noninflammatory acne (whiteheads and blackheads), because it doesn't work as well as other over-the-counter medications for inflammatory acne (papules and pustules).

Cons:
smells gross and a little expensive but well worth your money
this product works great and it may be a bit more expensive than the stuff from your local CVS or pharmacy , but your better off saving your money for this stuff that ACTUALLY WORKS than a bunch of cheaper stuff that just barley manages your acne

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
none
Cons:
I cleared up for about 4 days then broke out worse than i have ever done before. After about 3 weeks i had to quit because my skin was the worst it has been in my life.
Stay far away from this product. It is just another infomercial scam. They promise you clear, beautiful skin and give you the exact opposite. I would never have used this stuff if i knew what it was going to do to me. I was extremely disapointed and am still recovering. Thank god its mostly gone now.

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Refining Mask)
Pros:
Temporarily dulls the redness of the pimple.
Cons:
Dries your face badly. When your face is dry, more break outs will come. So don't over use this product.
not worth the money but if it works for you, make sure you don't use that much and only use it a few times a week for best results.

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Refining Mask)
Pros:
Lessens the swelling and redness of pimples. Makes my skin feel soft after.
Cons:
Smells bad and my skin is a little to dry after. It is too expensive for such a small bottle.
It works great and I have seen nothing like it. I use to just put toothpaste on my face at night, but this is way better. Everyone should use it. Since it is so expensive and such a small bottle I only use it about 3 times a week. This product is great!!!

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Refining Mask)
Pros:
If used as a spot treatment, it makes you feel like you're actually doing something for your pimples. Helps heal them quicker, in my opinion.
Cons:
Dries out the pimple and makes it peel around it.
I like this a lot as a spot treatment. Only use it for one night on a pimple or it will start to peel and be gross.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)

It is better than Proactiv. Takes off redness and pimples.

Long treatment. Twice a day.
It did make a change in my face but it didn't work as said on TV. I still recomend it because it still looks pretty good.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Nice look
Cons:
Smells horrible & most importantly doesn't work
This product really stinks!!! About 3 weeks ago I started noticing my acne was getting a little bit worse than it normally does, I had seen Murads advertisment on T.V. & it sounded convincing to me, so I thought why not. The first week it cleared my acne only a little bit, the second week I noticed I had acne on places of my face that I had never had before ever, I thought it was strange, but thought that maybe it might be from something else. The third week I noticed it was just getting worse & worse. My chin & forehead are completely covered in acne, I used to have mild acne & this crap has given me acne in places I've never had it...not just a little either. I would not recommend this to anyone, its a load of bull.
Pros:
Works great especially if your breaking out at the worst moment (before a dance,a party ect.)
