"I use the PanOxyl foam, and it's worked wonders. I have tried many other products on TV or from the dermatologist. The past 2 1/2 years I used a topical product from the dermatologist, but my acne was just becoming 'immune' to it. The 10% benzoyl peroxide in PanOxyl really helped to clear up my stubborn acne. My chest, neck, and back were the worst places, and I saw results after the first night. Within 2 days, those areas were completely cleared up. PanOxyl does dry out my face some, but it can be easily fixed with some lotion. When I apply it at night, it's not sticky, and it doesn't leave behind any oil. I had problems with those big welt-like pimples, but I have not had a single one since I started using this product!"

"My pre-teen daughter started using PanOxyl when her face started breaking out. It stopped the breakouts, and I think it prevents others. I've started using it too, and it doesn't make my skin feel dry after use, like Neutrogena. We recommend it to everyone!"

"This bar really works. I've used Proactiv and tried every other product on the market. I also used the 5% acne wash at Kaiser, and it didn't work. Whatever is in the PanOxyl, the combination is perfect for my 28-year-old skin that's still breaking out. I use it on my face, chest, and back. It's a lifesaver."

"I LOVE this product! At first sign of a blemish or whitehead that is really painful (you know what I'm talking about). Here's what I did: I put ice on the pimple to help with pain and swelling, and I put a thin to moderate layer of PanOxyl Aqua Gel. Most of the time, the pimple went away on its own, or it even 'popped' on its own. I totally love this stuff. Anything from the PanOxyl family."

"This product works wonders! I've suffered from acne since I was 12 years old, and at 22 I still suffered from constant breakouts. Luckily, my dermatologist recommended this cream, and it has worked wonders for my skin. It not only cleared up my breakouts, but I think it prevents new ones from forming because I've hardly had any since using. I highly recommend it to anyone suffering from acne."
