| Pros | -Lessens scar redness -Improves pore size -Smooths skin -Shrinks pimples |
|---|---|
| Cons | -None |
| Bottom line | This stuff is great. I've been battling acne for quite a while. All whiteheads, all noticeable bumps. After only a few days of using this stuff (applying am and pm) my skins texture was improved. After about a week and a half my fiance even noticed. Now, after about 3 weeks my active acne is less and less. |

| Pros | it's a great deal for what it is. |
|---|---|
| Cons | need to avoid putting it on existing acne as it will irritate it |
| Bottom line | for the last year, I've been using this on my chest and it works great. I wash my chest in the shower with selsun blue classic or non conditioning head and shoulders then apply this after drying my chest each night. It takes several weeks to work initially. stings a tad the first week or so. I have significantly less acne now, maybe 70% less. for the last 30% reduction of acne I take ice showers now everyday in the last month, everyday. it's a shock each day, but i love the discipline and peace afterward that it cultivates. bottom line: it noticeably helps, and does so in the long term |

| Pros | Improved texture of skin, lessened redness, lightened acne scars dramatically, prevents new acne, clears up existing acne quicker, non-irritating, left skin very soft and healthier. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Can't go out in the sun without heavy spf, burns slightly on first few applications, dries with slight residue. |
| Bottom line | I've been using this stuff for about a week now and I really love it. My skin took to it so nicely! I thought I would have to use it every other day as to not over do it but it didn't irritate my skin in any way. I haven't broken out any more since I started using this and that was really the whole point so hurrah! My skin looks so much healthier. It's less red, smoother and a lot softer. It's even evening out my skin tone. It does burn very very slightly and my skin is a lot more sensitive to the sun but I just wear a sunscreen now! Stay away from your mouth and eye area though. For some reason, it gave me a cold sore? Oh well. I highly recommend!!! |

| Pros | Made skin soft, helped reduce some red marks. Really got rid of any deep under the skin pimples (small cysts). Made zits dry up fast. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Made me break out! I had tiny pimples everywhere. I figured this was purging but I was wrong. |
| Bottom line | I used this product for about a month (I wanted to give it time for my skin to pass what I thought was 'purging'). I think this is too intense for my skin, either that, or there are poor clogging qualities to this. The zits would dry up somewhat quickly but new ones sprouted almost daily. Finally decided to quit and go back to a BP face wash that (mostly) worked for me in the past. |

| Pros | This gives an extra kick to the BP in the regimen. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Takes a little bit longer to dry than the BP, so getting dressed in the AM and PM is a bit longer than without the regimen, but I'll sacrifice sleeping in for clearer skin! |
| Bottom line | My back acne is a lot more stubborn than the facial acne, but I'm optimistic that I'll see results soon with the AHA. |

| Pros | -prevents acne on face and back -makes skin feel so soft! |
|---|---|
| Cons | -none |
| Bottom line | I have used this lotion for over 6 months, and I have seen a dramatic change in the overall appearance of my skin. I use it every night on my face and back. I have less acne and my skin just glows. It is definitely the best product that I have found. |

| Pros | - combined w/ AHA souffle -> beautiful glowing skin - lightweight - absorbs easily, as long as you don't smear it on in large amounts - making my skin look much healthier and brighter - helps fade red marks left over from previous acne - gentle enough for dry skin - improving overall texture of my skin |
|---|---|
| Cons | - tingling sensation on face that last about 10-15 min. - smell is a little strong |
| Bottom line | I am in love with this product and the 12% Glycolic Acid Souffle. I have tried many natural remedies like turmeric, honey, olive oil.. but this product is the only thing that seems to be working for my skin. I have only used this product for about 2.5 weeks, but I am already noticing a big difference in the appearance of my skin. It looks healthy, feels soft, and looks bright and even. Also, since my skin is improving, I'm finding that it takes a lot less time to apply my makeup. I no longer need heavy foundation AND powder to cover my red spots. Instead, I dust a few layers of loose powder on my face, and I am ready to go. The recommended time to use this product is about 8-10 weeks, and I have only used it for *about* 3. I will continue using this product since I am already seeing results. I hope they never discontinue this or the souffle because I will continue to use both of those products to maintain the illuminated, radiant skin that I have now. |

| Pros | reduces pimples and marks helps to minimize wrinkles Skin feels smoother/softer and looks brighter. |
|---|---|
| Cons | increase in pimples over the first week or so |
| Bottom line | I'd used this for a couple of years as part of a regimen - salacylic acid wash in the am, followed by a light Benzoyl Peroxide coating or spot treatment as needed. At night another sal acid wash then the Alpha Hydrox. After a while, I thought my skin had cleared up, so I stopped. Big mistake. I'm going to order more of this product and start up again. There is a BIG difference. |
