Being someone who gets pimples frequently, I've tried almost everythign on the market from prescription to over the counter. I find this spot treatment GREAT! I used it for a while then got stuff from my doctor so I stopped. I had an under the skin pimple for a good three weeks, it wasn't going away with the cream my doctor gave me so I thought, why not try the Persa-Gel again, I washed my face put it on the spot (rubbed it in then put a tiny more to dry on, so the pimple was fully covered). I swear, I woke up the next day it was half the size. I used it again that night and the next day the pimple was GONE!

I now use both the cream my doctor gave me (Retisol-A) on acne scars and red spots and the Persa-Gel on active pimples. I find this works best for my skin and the pimples go away a lot faster. If you're at home stick some on your pimples. Beware though, you CANNOT go out with this stuff on as it dries up and looks like there is white toothpaste on your face. My brother gets the odd pimple and started using it and he loves it too :)

Good luck, the cheap price makes it worth a shot!

The gril who does my microdermabrasion suggested I get this. At first I just got the 5 and it was ok. Then I tried to up the strength and try the 10. This works much better. I find that if you nab the zit at the beginning, before it has time to get really bad, it disappears really fast. And Shoppers has this on sale a lot, so its worth trying!

I love this stuff!! A friend of mine recommended it to me saying that it worked like a charm and man was she right! It contains Benzoyl Peroxide which I know has a bad reputation because it is so harsh BUT it does the job. A small dab of this stuff morning and night sees my pimples disappear in just two days. It dries them up fast. Highly recommend for on the spot acne treatments, especially for those who like me, only get the odd breakout.

This product is great for those 1-2 zits that sneak up out of the blue. Throw this on at night, sleep on it, and they shrink like magic.

For those of us with complex acne, this will likely not provide a permanent solution. It's more of a touch-up product for people who rarely get acne accept maybe during that time of the month, for example.

Do not buy this product if you're dealing with stubborn, cystic or large area breakouts. It will not help; you need something stronger that will cover all areas affected. (Plus you'll use the whole tube in one go; not what you want.)

Alright, I like this. I am proud to say that it has helped me with my acne. I usually get the urge to pop 'em cause they're just so darn annoying, but I tried this thing. I put it on before school, and at 3pm the same day, it was barely noticeable. All that was left behind was a dry kind of mark thing.

When you first put this o, its like a white pastey gel, but you rub it on and it dries up. There's this tingly effect, but it doesnt hurt at all. And that's basically what the cream does. Now, after a while, it feels like its not working, but I don't know. It probably is.

This product is great for a cheap, drugstore acne treatment. I use it to spot treat my pimples and it really makes a difference. I would be careful to use it all over your face because it can be quite drying. I also find that when I use it every other day my skin is a lot smoother, without as much dryness.

Be careful around clothes and towels because it can bleach fabrics.

Totally love this product!! It actually works!

My dermatoligist recommended this to me to use with my priscription. My face looks really nice. This product will help you achieve healthy clear skin, for real. I still have few breakouts but, I won't call it acne any more. I am very confident now!

This product defines "you get what you pay for". It dries your skin, which makes you put on more moisturizer, which then makes your skin oily, and will therefore cause you to get more acne. Not good at all. The high percentage of active ingredients tricked me into thinking that this was an effective product, but it just made my skin dry and flaky. It makes you want to pick at your pimples more and ... if you are anything like me, you will pick until it bleeds, which will make you look worse than you were before you stepped foot in that drug store.

I use Clean & Clear Persa-Gel 10 for spot treatment before or during a breakout. It does a good job keeping my acne at bay. It has 10% Benzoyl Peroxide. If you use to much you might get dry skin so I use it only if I need it and in problem spots. Its not to expensive and does a pretty good job for a drugstore product.
