Pros:Easy to use and carry. Cleared up some pimples and made my skin smoother after just one day. Smell is tolerable and it even smells clean!
Cons:Makes my face red at first, burns a little. Makes my face a bit greasy, but it's easy to handle.
Bottom Line:Definitely recommended for anyone who has moderate acne and pimples. It works really well and once you get past the cons, you'll see your face clearing up. I love it!

Pros:affordable, no scent.

Pros:This stuff gets rid of pimples and blackheads fast. It is easy to use and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg
Cons:ZERO, unless you are like the person above me who has extremely sensitive skin
Bottom Line:This is the most effective acne product I have ever used. My sister and I have tried everything from clean and clear to proactiv, scrubs, and cleansers. Terminator 10 works the best above everything else. Try it you won't regret it.

Pros:Cleared my skin up after NOTHING else would, and has stopped new breakouts from coming back - I only get a pimple about once a month now. When I get a pimple, I use the spot treatment that you can buy, and it clears it up.
Cons:It took almost 3 months to clear my skin. I was about ready to give up because I thought it wasn't working. It also makes my skin feel greasy all day, but oil blotting tissues take care of that problem.
Bottom Line:It worked for me, and it was less than $20.
Recommended:Yes

Pros:works great, leaves my skin super soft, noticeably reduced blackheads, worked for me in about a week
Cons:slight bleachy scent, bleaches fabric, slight burning, dries skin out, hasn't been effective on my upper chest as much as my face
Bottom Line:Use a white towel or set aside one you don't mind getting bleached out. My blackheads are much better and my pores are smaller. There are no actual pimples to speak of anymore. It does burn a little when washing and applying the toner and repairing lotion but that goes away in a few minutes and isn't bad enough to make me stop using it. I'll probably cut back use to once a day and use a better moisturizer until it gets closer to *that* time which is when my acne really flares. As a testament though--the acne free cleared some the mid-cycle madness on my face this month. It's definitely worth trying though and for about $20 you can't beat it compared to way more expensive acne treatments.

Pros:The price is very affordable, kits sometimes include BONUSES, available in face wash aisle at the store, so NO shipping and handling fees and IT WORKS!
Cons:STEP 3 - Repair Lotion stings some days, but not all the time.
Bottom Line:I had really bad acne that I tried to ignore for a long time because in my head my skin was perfect. It wasn't until I started taking clear pictures of myself for my Myspace page that I realized "HOLY CRAP! There's ugly pimples all over my face!" I stumbled upon AcneFree Severe at Target in September 2008 and it was on sale for $19, so I gave it a try. I didn't think it would work because A) it was cheap, B) nothing else had worked, C) it seemed too good to be true. But it was. I noticed a difference in my skin the very next day after I used the Retinol the night I bought the kit. After a month... WHOA! My skin was as clear as it had been in high school. Every now and then I'll break out sometimes, but it's not all over my face like it was before and my skin looks so much younger. I only break out because I start feeling too confident and worry-free that I start eating all these bad foods, so you still have to watch what you eat to see the full results. I RECOMMEND IT!!!

Pros:no harsh smell, nice packaging, very inexpensive (compared to other treatments), works!
Cons:bleaches fabrics
Bottom Line:i've been using this line for about a month now, and my skin is the best it's been in a long time! in fact, i went to the derm yesterday to get a new antibiotic prescription and he wouldn't even give them to me because he said my skin wasn't bad enough for it to be necessary :)

i was trying to decide if this stuff works better than the philosiphy "on a clear day" system, but then i realized i'm paying FOUR TIMES as much for the philosophy line. acnefree only cost me $20!

the only thing i have to say is that you MUST be consistent with this, just be patient, trust me, it works!
