Try Zinc 50-100 mg a day. It really helps. Go read the reviews on this website.

The lifetime guarantee is only if you keep the receipt as I just found out. And it didn't work.

I had NO idea there was an issue with this stuff. I have been using it for about 6 months now. I did not think the price was bad after trying ProActiv with no results.

I have not had anything BAD happen to my skin. I thought I saw a little improvement, but nothing dramatic. I still get breakouts after 3 months of clearing.

I was getting ready to order more when I came across this message board.

I think I will try something else after reading all these troubling reviews.

Also, I tried Retin A and all it did was cause my skin to peel and be very red for the 10 weeks I tried it. NEVER again!

Further, this will probably be my only post, but I did want to say that AKL's posts were a little abusive and confrontational! My opinion.

Good luck people! I like the smiley's in here!

The website itself doesn't look well put together at all, and that just reeks scam! It looks exactly like the type of website for that scam "acne free in 3 days". Stupid testimonials, "my life story how I created this revolutionary product! I paid this much.. you get it for this much... blah blah", and FAQ.

Just by looking at how the website is put together. You can tell it's a scam, it's not well organized at all!

Hi thought that since im so unsure of whether or not this crap actually works or not that id get some and figure it out once and for all. First off i ordered my first bottle of acnetix and pore minimizer on july 6th it is now july 21st and i just recieved the bottle today. (i live in canada) so it came decently fast and it was 73. 93 (15 dollars for shipping) anyways. i was just up in the bathroom decided to try it out for the first time.
my thoughts
irritation- minimal no redness at all from the acnetix its self however, it feels a bit tingly on my skin now but i think its the pore minimizer thats doing that
smell of acnetix- not the biggest fan. it has a strong essential oil smell to it. not for people with real sensitive noses haha
texture- gritty, definatly meant to take off any dead skin and it did so with out tearing off my fresh skin underneath, not rough like neutrogena exfoliator (used this neutrogena crap once and it made my face red as a tomato and itcy as soon as it touched my face)
how it makes my skin feel to touch- my boyfriend says it feels softer i do agree but its probably just because the dead skin is wiped away.
i definatly had to put on moisturizer after using the pore minimizer because my skin felt very tight right after.
has it effected my acne yet- no not in the least but its only my first use

anyways this is only after the first use but in about 2 days i will come back and post another blog forum what ever the hell this is and let you all know what the hells really going on with this stuff.. im curious to know if its a scam just as much as you are! thanks

Hey Amanda & everyone else,

I'm from Canada myself & I purchased Acnetix about an hour ago, the time that elapsed I spent reading all sort of reviews from different sources!!! The findings are quiet disturbing!!!! Why did I do the research on the product after I purchased it & not before please don't ask! I guess I'll do the same as Amanda: try it & see if it works - I'll up-date everyone on the progress, if any!

I was wondering if there's anyone who tried to get reimbursed - I'd like to know if they succeeded or not!!!

Anyhow, I truly hope I didn't just throw out almost $100 out of the window!!!

to be continued.......

Heey everyone its day two of using acnetix
i found that my skin actually looks healthier cleaner as my boyfriends says haha it cleans out your pores quite well actually.. the one concern i have so far is one of my pimples was inflammed this morning when i woke up so hopefully tomorrow i wont have any new ones popping up out of no where.
i found it easier to put on my concealor ( yaya i know clogged pores and all that bull) because i didnt have dead skin and black heads on my nose poking out. my nose which is usually quite bumpy is extremly smooth and soft. i did have a little bit of redness on my cheeks today however hopefully its nothing
i have extremely sensitive skin thats why i chose acnetix in the first place. i use live clean for shampoo and body wash for gosh sakes haha

by the way i have been just washing my hands and rinsing my face with luke warm water and the using the acnetix in circular motion for 30 seconds to 40 seconds shaking the bottle very well before application

umm as i said before il update as hopefully my skin gets bettter

[jjssoccer]

AKL what is your problem have you even tried this stuff because you dont know how it works. dont talk shit about other people. you dont know what there ance is like and you dont know who they are. keep you opinions to ur self and stop trash talking people. my advice try it before you make a jugment!

[manderslawley]

Its my third day using acnetix
i woke up this morning got out of bed used the wash room and as i was washing my hands i glanced in the mirror and noticed something... i noticed a significant improvement in the acne i have on my cheeks. spots that i have had for years that havent budged have almost dissapeared. my boyfriend ( who bought the acnetix for me in the first place) said that the redness i usually have is almost gone as well.
So far id say that it is working, not even all that slowly either. i never get acne on my forhead just on my cheeks and my chin on my neck, ocasionally ill have bad b reak outs on my chest and back as well. i havent tried using this product on my back or chest

I did have some redness (irritation) this morning after using acnetix so i think il try scrubbing a little softer i dont rub all that hard but softer cant hurt. if it stays irritated ill only use it in the mornings from then on. anyways
so far im impressed

Okay today is day number 5 or acnetix. I'm sold I just wouldn't advise using it on body acne I used it on my chest and it broke out pretty bad. My face cleared up quite a bit however so I'm really impressed. I will write back in about a week and let you all know how the treatments going

[bklyngrl58]

I have been using a routine of acnetix & witch hazel for about 1 year. I have very sensitive skin, so I use the acnetix before going to bed and witch hazel in the morning when I wake up. I started getting acne when I turned 30. This routine has worked for me. It took about 1 month before my skin was totally cleared & has stayed that way. I've tried other products, over the counter & prescription, but none have given me the results that my routine has.

[ellie420]

I am a 39 year old female and have suffered with cystic acne as well as general pimples all over my face since puberty. I have tried EVERY product out there, proactiv, acne free, clearasil, Obagi systems, noxema, Murad, neutrogena, etc. I have also used Accutane with no results except horrific dryness in my eyes and lips and most recently this year I paid $250.00 for one laser dot treatment, which did little, was very painful and left blisters in place of the pimples.

My mom is always bringing me new products to try and last week she brought a bottle of acnetix, which I had never heard of, so needless to say, I was extremely skeptical. Well I am on my 6th day of use with this product, I wash with it once in the morning and once at night. I am extremely happy to report that my face is smoother and clearer than it has been in years and my scars are fading already. I can use less foundation now, which thrills me as I didn't like feeling as if I was in clown makeup everyday and I dont have any dryness, itching, and very little peeling on my face, that was always the case with all other products.

I was a little put off by the smell of the product (i THINK IT'S THE TEA TREE OIL?) at first, but after a few days it's not so bad, I really like that my face doesn't feel tight or irritated by the product at all, it's almost shocking to me, I've come to expect itching or burning after most of the products I've used. Just don't have any of that with the Acnetix.

The grittiness of the product might also freak you out a little at first, but after a few days I realized how helpful that was, as it helped get all the dry, scabby stuff off and my skin it soooo smooth now.
I do believe I will be a longtime user of this product. Everybody has the right to an opinion, I however can honestly say that for me it is no scam. I LOVE THIS STUFF!!

I tired acnetix a while back and it screwed up my skin, but after seeing the empty bottle in my bathroom it sparked a thought.

Acnetix is pretty much an exfoliant with a bunch of natural ingredients. Now when i started using it i was very skin care unaware but since that is no longer the case i know that you should only really exfoliate once every 3 days max.

Now i havent looked up the ingredients or anything but its just a thought for those who are giving this ago (btw don't get your hopes up).
