Mon Nov 17 2008I used The oxy cleansing pads, and it seemed to work. It definately dries out my skin, but I mosturize. But the spot treatment makes the spots I put it on darker for some reason. I stopped using it because of the skin discoloration.

Wed Jul 09 2008Go to www.smmcosmetics.com look up their acne night treatment, it is a power substance. Southern Magnolia Mineral is a company located in North Carolina all their products are natural and they offer free shipping, too. I use their acne night treatment it work wonders and doesn't agitate my skin. I also use their mineral makeup, it's great I love it. Enjoy!

Sat Feb 16 2008I started using this product on recommendation from my doctor. The first time i applied it my skin turned red the next day, after two days it went away. I have begun to use it again, and have had no problems with it. I am told the reason for the reaction was due to how much i was putting on (so please use it sparsely) and also it was reaction with the acid that was in my face wash from another brand. After suffering from acne my whole life i have finally found a product that works.

Fri Feb 08 2008I am a Dermatologist with an MD. Please listen to my advice for it will save you a great deal of time and energy. Oxy-10(Benzoyl peroxide) is a bleach that will disinfect only 20% of your skin and will only dry it up and irritate it. Those who have seen results overnight have long term consequences. Oxy-10 burns off each layer of skin slowly not only destroying your skin defense system but will prevent any capability of completely recovering in the future with out surgery. With this product, you might see fast results in the beginning but later, it will completely shatter any chance of recovering.

Tue May 29 2007I have been using this product for over 20 years with good results. It works well when used as intended...as a SPOT treatment. I only use it occasionally as needed for large blemishes and it clears them (as well as concealing them) like a charm. Lately I have had difficulty finding it in any of the usual stores such as target and RiteAid. I hope they haven't discontinued the product.

Wed Oct 11 2006I was going thru alot of stress and broke out ALOT! but then I used oxy 10 and it cleared it right up in matter days! It does dry out your skin but I just moisturised, it's worth it!

Sat Jun 17 2006ive used it for a while now and the only reason people are gettin redness and soreness is because the products dries your skin out too much! .. have none of you thought of putting a moisturiser on after applying it? you get the same results without the sorenss and redness! ive been using this technique for over a year now and i am very happy with it!

Fri Apr 16 2004I have been using oxy 10 for years and it has helped my spots and I wish I could still use it BUT It has one huge drawback which I have only just discovered so I can't use it anymore. IT BLEACHES CLOTHES. I have wasted so much money on sporadic bleach stains on clothes and have only just sussed after years that it is oxy 10. So it may work on your skin but kill your clothes. I don't know how many people this affects, but BE CAREFUL.

Mon Sep 08 2003hey, i used the oxy 5 cream and at first it was ok but as i used it over a period of time i began to wonder what were the long term affects of this cream, i then stopped using it as it didnt work after a while but then the spots got worse so i went back to it.i then had to stop using it all together because it was basicaaly ruining my skin making it red and givng me acne worse than ever.but when i stopped it got really bad but i knew i sholdnt go back to it.it made my skin red and dry and basically burnt my skin as its like bleech or something. i just hope i can get over the affects of this cream. yes i feel strongly about this.i used the oxy, 5 this oxy 10 is meant to be stronger so imagine what that might do please dont buy it!!!!! jus wanna say thanks to the person who made it for attempting to ruin my face i hate this product 1's to good for this.please hear my warning as you can learn from my mistake.or buy it and see for yourself.but be warned.itellyou's right DO NOT BUY THIS PLE...

Tue May 20 2003I need 0 star... This product works well on destroying your skin..... I never had such as severe breakout before i used Oxy..... It delivers oxygen to your acne ?? (yeah right... i think i should deliver oxygen to the manufacturer brain). Oh yah, they have another product called OXiclean... and guess what... it is used for bleach fabric (clothes)... Wonder how much profit they have made???

Mon Jan 20 2003i have been using oxy 10 since i was 14. i am now 37. i use it when needed and it works great. my problem area (nose and/or forehead) usually clears up in one-two days. my kids are now using it with the same results. always wash your face first before applying it.

Wed Nov 13 2002SEEMS TO WORK WELL BUT DOES DRY YOUR SKIN OUT
by garkee83
Wed Oct 16 2002Well well....OXY...that claimed that this product let oxygen get into the skin and as well kill the P.acne. Benzoyl peroxide is the main active ingredient in this product, yet in 10% of un-prescription. There are only a few spot treatment in the market offering 2.5% BP lotion, but there are many offer 5% and 10%. Please DO start with the 5% first if you don;t wan to irritate or dry up your skin. If you got used to it..then you can proceed on using the 10% . I use a the OXY10..tinted one...it conceals while dried up acne..quite okie...

Fri Aug 30 2002Good acne treatment, but it makes my skin white all over whenever I've applied it on. This is mainly because it can't be absorbed really well by my skin (and I believe that my skin is not to be blame for not absorbing this medication well because, if this mediaction cannot be absorbed, thus it means that, it is quite solid and not in a liquid like form or watery). However, this product works wonders as it clears my acne a little bit, prevent new one from forming and I enjoy using it. The 10% BP will make your skin dry and flaky.

Wed Jul 04 2001This product doesn't work on my pimples. It leaves my skin very dry and irritated.

Mon Nov 27 2000This product I didn't really care for because when I would use it, it would dry up my skin. It would help the blemishes if you used it regularly but for me it just dried my skin.

Thu Nov 16 2000This treatment works. I use this and my blemishes are actually going away. This is the only treatment that I'm using for my blemishes (that I'm actually staying with). It dries out your zits by the next morning if you put it on at night.

Wed Nov 08 2000This product works well because whenever I have a blemish I put it on and it medicates very well. This is the only one I use because I trust it.

Tue Nov 07 2000This product was OK, because it didn't work so well. My face was very dry at times. It didn't remove some of the blemishes.

Fri Nov 03 2000I use it daily and so far I've seen no results. My skin looks the same as it one month ago.

Thu Oct 26 2000Didn't work well.

Wed Oct 25 2000Oxy 10 Spot Treatment looks well for small isolated bumps or pimples. I can say that I saw some improvement overnight. Although the pimple was not even 80% better, some improvement is worthy of recognition.

Fri Oct 20 2000It doesn't work, no matter what they say. There are too many ads for it. It stings. It caters to western medicine. They only give you five pads.
