    It's harsh, it hasn't cleared up my acne at all, but it makes me feel better to apply something instead of being helplessly blemished!

    I used to use the 2.5%, which worked really well in the beginning but gradually became less effective, so I went up to 5%. Unfortunately, the exact same thing happened - my acne was well controlled...

    I'm still undecided on this product. I purchased the benzac a.c 5% only two weeks ago, so I can't say that I have really been using it for long enough to give a decent review. I have dry skin and...

    Throw this away. Especially if you are in your thirties. I wish I'd done some research before using this as it's turned a few mild blemishes into an ugly mess of peeling skin and red marks. 5%...

    This is an excellent BP acne treatment as it also has moisturizing glycerin included in it. So you don't have to add moisturizer on top of it. There is also 5% Benzac W gel (that one has a water...

    Several studies have proved this to work, and it does, up to some extent at least. If you have the nasty, stubborn, hormonal acne (like me) even faithful use of this wont clear up your skin (as...
