There are two listings for this, so will post on both, but I used to use the Stridex in the red container/box with 2% SA but since I also use a topical BP acne gel, the combo was just too much for...

Is this for real or just a dream? Honestly, I am blown away by this product! Ok here's the story: my skin is a mess. Oily t zone, dry cheeks, clogged pores everywhere, bumpy skin, very clog and...

I have used this product for over 10 years, and it is the best toner I have ever used. I say that without qualification: it's not that it's great for the price, it's that it simply is a fantastic...

I'm very surprised about the ratings on this product! The much touted stridex 2% BHA pads in the red box that everyone raves about on the boards didn't do nearly as much for me as the sensitive...

I debated between trying these, the Clinique Mild Toner of .5 saylic acid, and Paula's Choice. As I was at the drugstore, it was too easy to pick these up, and based on the results, I have no...

the best way to describe these is "meh" there alright. love that it has aloe in it but it smells weird and for some reason when I use it, it kind of foams up, so first I ring out all the extra...

I use Stridex Daily Care, alcohol free, maximum strength (2%), soft touch pads, red box. Nice little find here, effective pH BHA with no alcohol. The menthol needs to go (one lippie off), but...

I've tried these pads, and the Maximum Strength ones by Stridex. Out of the two, I like the Sensitive Skin ones less, but they're still good and work if you have very minor acne. The difference is...

This is good when used on a daily basis. I don't recommend it to be used if you have bad acne since it is the sensitive skin formula. It dries my skin slightly, so I had to take off a few points.

These are a great basic cleanser pad. If you are looking to get rid of acne seriously, don't get the sensitive skin ones - they don't go much for it. I use it more for freshening up rather than...

I used the pads for two months. On the good side, I experienced no irritation whatsoever and liked using them as a toner. On the less good side, I saw only minor improvement in the bumps I get on...

Great product for oily skin with acne breakouts. It is a great exfolliator. Salicylic acid is great at breaking down the excessive skin. It would also be good to use an additional treatment...

I do not have sensitive skin but picked these up to see how well they would work. While they did not sting at all, they did absolutely nothing to get rid of my acne! I continued to use them though,...
