My mom refused to buy me some lemons to treat my recent acne problem. I looked up Persagel 10 originally and planned to buy because the invisible blemish treatment by Clean and Clear also was not...

Great product (: Just repurchased it for the third time today. Works wonders on my teenage skin and the occasional pimple. Zits always leave a mark no matter what, and 5% BP helps take care of...

I dont love this product, it did help a little. it does not work for existing acne it helps just to prevent, but this is super drying for your face so be careful.

I bought this a bunch during high-school even though it kept causing me problems with irritation. I now use Panoxyl Aquagel with 2.5% BP and like it much better. I'd recommend the Panoxyl over the...

I would NOT recommend any high concentration form of benzoyl peroxide to clear up acne, especially the 5% or 10%. This is definitely the worst product I have ever used for pimples!! After...

This is my HG treatment. I've been using this faithfully for about three months and my face has cleared up so much. Salicylic acid doesn't do anything to prevent blemishes for me and this has...

Been alternating this with the Persagel 10 for the last 9 years. This is my ultimate HG product. As for the drying effect- put it under your moisturiser (preferably a good night cream) and there...

Stay far away if you have sensitive skin. It works well to dry out pimples, but at the expense of the surrounding skin. I only bought this because Shopper's was out of my regular, 2.5% Persagel...
