Pros: Balances Skin, Improves Skin Texture, Leaves Clean Feel, Not Greasy

Cons: Bad Smell, Dries Out Skin

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Best Uses: Combination Skin, Oily Skin

Bottom Line: recommended

I have used every acne medication out there from prescription grade to over the counter and nothing ever really seemed to work. I have used Oxy a few times and have loved it each time but kept searching for something that smelled a little better. After much searching and no results I went back to the Oxy. It clears my skin up in a matter of days (I use the spot treatment with it) and with regular use, keeps the acne away! The only thing that bothered me- at first- was the dryness, but once my skin got used to the wash it stopped becoming dry and itchy when I used it. The only other thing I could think of would be to make the product a little thicker because it runs out of the bottle quickly.

Using it with retin-a micro .04%

Pros: Improves Skin Texture, Leaves Clean Feel, Not Greasy

Describe Yourself: Budget Buyer

Best Uses: Daily Use, Oily Skin

I have been using this product for about a month and have seen great results. I'm on Retin-a Micro .04% and have heard that benzoyl peroxide and tretinoin(the ingredient in Retin-a Micro)could cause a bad reaction or neutralize each other. I find that the two maybe work better on my skin together than each by themsevles. I don't know if its Oxy or Retin-a micro but my skin just keeps getting clearer and after several months of too much acne, I am highly impressed.

Pros: Gentle, Leaves Clean Feel, Not Greasy, Smells Great

Describe Yourself: Budget Buyer

Best Uses: Daily Use, Oily Skin, Sensitive Skin

Bottom Line: recommended

It works great! Ive struggled with acne since high school and have never found a product like this before. I recently began breaking out a lot this summer and a still don't know why.The 10% BP that the doctor prescribed worked slowly and it made my breakouts very red before drying out the area where applied. I used this for two days and it undid the damage, I also used the Oxy spot treatment right after. I'm on the third day and happy with the results. I would recommend using this at night before bed at first. I have used BP for a while and have become accustomed to it but if you're not then start off slow. GOOD LUCK ! :]

The first few days were great , I saw an improvement the first day. Now it's week 3 and I've started to get very little pimples all over my face. I guess it only works for severe acne.

LOVE IT!!!

Pros: Balances Skin, Clarifies Skin, Improves Skin Texture

Cons: Irritates Skin

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Best Uses: Oily Skin

Bottom Line: recommended

1. As the last step of a shower, make sure you lather it up first. It's too strong to apply directly to skin. I would recommend massaging face for 30-60 seconds to allow the medicine to penetrate and act. Only use in the shower...that way you have adequate pressure to wash it completely off. Washing your face in the basin...you can leave remnants of the medicine & that may irritate your skin. 2. If you get hives, don't be dismayed...get some Benadryl & hydrocortisone. Don't throw it out...it will work. Your skin will need to build up a tolerance. Use smaller amounts & gradually increase to determine your skin's tolerance.

If your skin is very oil than I would say it is fine to use daily. If you have combination to dry sking, I would only use every other day. Depending on your skin type and use it should work well for you.
