Pros:

REALLY WORKS! I have the OXY anca vanishing treatment with microsphere technology cover-up and my face is alot clearer than what it was.

Cons:

The first few weeks my face was dry, but not anymore.

IT really does work. I love it.. before it was oxy5 which made a big difference on my face a huge difference! I had huge boil like pimples but not anymore. I have some scars left over but not pimples.. I get them sometimes but not as often and they don't last. So I recommend it for sure. Wear it 2 times a day to start with, and then when theres a big difference you can cut down to once a day.(That's what I did) and it works.

Pros:

Out of everything I've ever tried including prescriptions, this worked the absolute BEST!

Cons:

Drys your face out a little but that just means it's working.

I noticed results in one day and I have never been happier with a product...

DRIES OUT YOUR SKIN!!!
it works to clear acne, but i have to stop using it because all the Oxy products are drying out my skin!! i cant handle my skin being rough and dry so I'm going to try a different skin care line. i won't ever recommend this to a friend, awful that it dries out the skin so much!! too bad because it really does clear acne but cant handle the dry skin anymore.

Pros:

DEFINITELY works - but only if you give it time. Mattes your skin and doesn't overdry it.

Cons:

This WILL bleach your hair if you aren't careful. It takes about 4-6 weeks to kick in and it has a bit of a funk to its smell. The bottles are a little small; they usually last about 1-2 weeks at a time.

I had acne all along my mouth, forehead and sideburns. It was pretty damn awful, until I picked this up at Wal-Mart. 4 weeks later, and I stopped breaking out. 3 months later, and all I have to worry about is scarring. Make sure you follow the instructions on the bottle. Would definitely recommend this.

Pros:

Clears 90 % of bacteria , Eliminates red aqnd inflamation, calmes down skin / pimple

Cons:

Can be drying if put on incorrectly ..

Wow!!! the only thing that really works for me so far , but at the same time i could also say any 10 % peroxide applied directly to pimple would do the same.. This is just in cream form so its easy to apply. Really does work and i would reccomend nothing else for spot treatment.

Pros:

cleared blackheads within a few days, great for overnight relief of sore pimples, not expensive whatsoever, easy access to product from retailers in america

Cons:

excessive drying of skin

my mother had used oxy-10 for over twenty years, and she never once had any sort of acne. remembering this just recently, i ran to wal-mart and bought some. this product literally saved my skin. i suffered from severe blackheads (we're talking about hundreds on my nose) and after using this for less than a week they were completely gone. however, my skin did get excessively dried out, but after applying my moisturizer the problem was solved. i'm going to forever use this product as long as it works because this has been the ONLY thing to completely remove my blackheads. salycic acid never came close to doing the job that oxy-10 did.

Pros:

Saved my skin! This was the best product I have ever used in my life

Cons:

It's a little drying, but that's the point! A little oil free lotion over it and there were no problems.

Oxy Maximum Vanishing LOTION is fantastic! Sadly, it's been discontinued. All they have now is their spot treatment :( The spot treatment works, but it doesn't work to PREVENT. So now I can get rid of the pimples with the spot treatment, but I can't prevent them! It's very dissapointing, and I wish they would bring the Vanishing Lotion back!!!! My skin was FLAWLESS with the Oxy lotion.... It's such a let down to find a product that works 100% for you, and then have it discontinued. Anyone know a product that works as well as the Oxy Maximum Vanishing LOTION?! I've been trying other BP lotions, and they just don't cut it! They've been giving more pimples....so that's counter-productive!

Pros:

Clears up acne like a beast.

Cons:

Dries out skin sometimes, smells weird. xD

I was not expecting such a cheap product to work - - proactive always looked good, but it didn't work for a month for me. So I tried the Oxy Overnight Vanishing cream for 3 days....all my blackheads, whiteheads, and acne disappeared! I had it really bad up in my forehead area, but now I can wear my hair up with no embarrassment! Needless to say, Oxy has pulled through for me and I hope you buy it soon! By the severity of my acne, below, it was that, but now it is clear.

Pros:

After wasting alot of money on more expensive products and not getting any results I went back to OXY 2.5% BP and the 2% salicilyc acid acne face wash. It is cheap and it works!!!!

Cons:

the skin gets dry, and it smells awful! For the dry skin I use CETAPHIL LOTION.

If you have sensitive skin or a first time user to BP, use the 2.5% sensitive skin vanishing lotion. Acne doesn't go away in a day, it takes time don't gave up on the first 3 days. If you have a severe case see a dermatologist.

Saved my horrible skin like nothing I've ever used before!!

Pros:

Clears skin fast!
Lightens dark spots
Makes face feel fresh

Cons:

Dries skin, use moisturizer!
Burns at first

I never had a skin problem up until a few months ago when I started birth control. Although some say it makes your skin better than ever , that wasn't the case for me. I broke out horribly all over my face, around mouth, cheeks nose forehead you name it! It was horrible I was so embarrassed tried everything from proactive to several prescriptions from my dermatologist. None were working at all until I recently started using tho product about three weeks ago an. It truely is a life saver! I put a thin layer on my problem areas at night and the next morning I already started seeing a difference! It's amazing I also started using oxy maximum face wash in the black and red bottle, they seem to counter act with eachpther which I love! I now only suffer from some dark marks due to the acne and a few occasional pimples other than thy my skin is back I normal and couldn't be better! Super happy about this product!!!
