Customer Reviews of Clearasil Ultra Rapid Action Treatment Cream, Vanishing, 1 oz.

Customer Review: It's okay
Summary: 3 Stars

It seems like this product worked better when I first started using it. This product has the same active ingredient in it as is in Proactiv's products, but at a higher percentage. I had used Proactiv before trying this product and, interestingly enough, some comments made by others about Proactiv is that 1) it seems to stop working eventually or doesn't work as well as time goes on, and 2) the active ingredient actually works best at a lower percentage. It seems that now when I apply this cream, it does nothing for my skin, whereas before I could actually fail to follow the directions of using it 3 times a day and the spots where I had acne would clear up quickly (and this product works differently from Proactiv, perhaps because of the difference in percentage of benzoyl peroxide and more products used in its treatment). In addition, this cream, unlike Proactiv, actually dries my skin out in the spots where I use it. If my skin isn't a little moist when I apply this cream, then the cream leaves dried white spots/flakes where I rub it in.

There are two reasons why this product won't always work/might not work on your acne:

1) The active ingredient is supposed to fight acne caused only by bacteria. However, not all acne is caused by bacteria. So, if you have a breakout because of clogged pores (you probably need sulfur as the active ingredient) or dead skin cells (you probably need salicylic acid/exfoliators), then products with benzoyl peroxide are not what you need. This is the reason why most elaborate acne treatments, such as Proactiv and the Clean & Clear system, include several products for you to use--each generally has a different active ingredient so that they can treat all these major causes of acne. If you have scars, bp is not going to do the trick, either. Scars after acne is a huge problem for me, and even Proactiv did pretty much nothing about that (and no other product out there does anything about it, I've found). I suggest Vitamin E cream for acne scars. These are just the common causes of acne and acne problems; there are others that are more difficult to find products to treat, such as eczema, allergies, irritants to the skin (weather, products, etc), and even the foods you eat and your health. BP will do nothing for these things.

2) Any product that fights bacteria will stop working eventually if you use it a lot, because the bacteria eventually becomes immune to the treatment. Haven't you ever heard this about taking antibiotics? I have, and the same thing applies for anything that is anti-bacterial, from Neosporin (which some people recommend for spot treatment on acne because it is anti-bacterial) to Dial soap. I used up one tube of this cream and started on another one, but by the time I got to the second tube it just wasn't working anymore.

Therefore, this product is best for those who have acne caused from bacteria--and very little acne, at that. As someone who gets acne spots frequently (and often times in similar/the same places), this product stopped working for me because I had to use it too often. If you're the kind of person who generally has clear skin but gets an occasional blemish, this might work for you.
