I´ve been using this system for three months and it has significantly reduced my acne and scarring. I was considering going into another round of accutane but this has done wonders for my skin. I´m so amazed that I no longer have to wear foundation anymore! At the beginning I tried using the system as directed, using the lotion AM and PM and moisturizer only on AM but I find it works so much better if I use it AM and PM. I also use Olay PRO-X with this system and it really helps with blackheads and blocked pores. Would recommend.

Pros

  • Works fast!
  • Moisturizer + SPF 15
  • 2.5 BP Acne Lotion works wonders!
  • Cleanser has a weird consistency but works well.

Cons

  • Acne Lotion can be drying/irritating. (I use the moisturizer AM and PM to avoid overdrying)
  • Acne Lotion and Moisturizer finish quicker than the cleanser. Neutrogena should sell these individually.
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 20
  • I recommend using this treatment.

this product never fully cleared my face, but it definitely helped keep it under control for about two months. after two months my face just became immune to it the same way proactiv did. fail...not worth the price paid. baking soda works better than this! and its like 99cents

Pros

  • helps clear
  • smells good

Cons

  • your skin gets immune to it then it stops working after a month or so
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 40
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

I used this product for a while and I get my usually breakouts on my forehead and t-zone. I wanted to try something else though to get rid of that acne and have been using GM Collin acne complex kit for about 2 weeks, so far it seems to be causing a slight breakout on my cheeks where I normally get no acne, so I may go back to using this Neutrogena System. I believe there's a chance it will work well for many people so I would reccomend it. It did not cause much irritation or any sort of severe breakout on my moderate acne prone skin. I may stick to this product if the new kit doesn't give me better results within a month or causes too much new acne (which I believe may be my skin clearing). The GM Collin was reccomended by my ethnetiscian and is $50 for much smaller bottles where this kit was larger bottle for $20. I'm hoping the new kit works better after a few weeks but I guess more expensive cleansers aren't necessarily better, but we will see. I would definatly not warn anyone to not try this Neutrogena kit, it works well but did not clear my skin enough for me to not want to try other products, but if you're considering trying this kit I would say go for it and see how it effects you for a month or so.

Pros

  • did not cause breakouts in areas i normally do not breakout
  • not too drying (doesn't burn or tingle)

Cons

  • somewhat drying
  • still had breakouts
  • still had some large pimples
  • moderate
  • for about a year
  • $ 19.99
  • I recommend using this treatment.

For me it works great with neutrogena oil free acne wash, Alphahydrox 10% glycolic oil free formula and OC Eight. See my review for Neutrogena oil free acne wash for my am/pm routine. I highly recommend all these products.

Pros

  • Great for extremely oily skin that's NOT sensitive.

Cons

  • I don't think this would work for non oily sensitive skin.
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 19
  • I recommend using this treatment.

Pros

  • clears acne
  • fast results
  • makes skin soft

Cons

  • drys skin a little at first
  • moderate
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 20
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I seriously LOVE this product. I was breaking out a bit on my chin and somewhat my forehead. And after the first night almost everything on my chin was dried up and faded! And after the next couple days my face improved texture and clarity.

<3

I will forever buy this.

FOREVER.

I completely recommend this!

GO BUY IT!

Pros

  • AMAZING!
  • I loooove the acne lotion!
  • The packaging is really nice.
  • The face wash is a weird consistency, but I really feel it cleaning my face.
  • Love the smell. :)
  • The SPF lotion is realllly great!
  • My skin is very soft after using this. I get compliments on my skin now.

Cons

  • Sometimes hard to find, but I actually found a place with a lot of it! Go Walmart. :)
  • Wish there was more of the acne lotion and SPF lotion.
  • moderate
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 15
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I bought this a few weeks before school came back. It is awesome. It cleared up my forehead, but my nose and the edges still get zits and are oily. I have been using it for about almost three weeks now, with some times skipped, and it's good. I do have a few pimples around my nose and one big one between my eyes. Now, I just need a good oil remover to go along with it. If you want to clear your acne quick, get this system.

Pros

  • BP is a gel (yes!)
  • Comes with a day lotion
  • Cleanser is really GENTLE for an acne cleanser
  • Costs less than other systems

Cons

  • Does not control oil that well
  • Day lotion and BP gel bottles are small
  • Will only clear if used consistently every day
  • moderate
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 14.99
  • I recommend using this treatment.

This system cleared my face better than any other system that I have used. My face isn't 100% clear but it's a substantial improvement from before so I am happy with the results I see. I still get a few pimples a few times a month as before they would pop up almost every day. Sometimes I get a stubborn pimple that is so far under the skin that the system doesn't help it at all. If that's the case I use a stronger BP cream (10% compared to Neutrogena's 2.5%) and that usually helps the issue.

Pros

  • Cleanser: Soft and gentle, not too harsh
  • Moisturizer: Leaves my skin smooth and not flaky or dry
  • Spot Treatment: Seems to do its job for the most part

Cons

  • I sometimes run out of the moisturizer or the acne spot treatment before the cleanser. In this case I just use a similar moisturizer or treatment until the rest runs out. Also the BP acne treatment works on most pimples, but not the very deep under the skin ones.
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 19.99
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I think that once your skin gets used to the product, the results will be great. It may take more time for other people (like for me, it took me 2 weeks to get clearer skin) but the results in the end were good enough to keep me using it.

Pros

  • It cleared up my skin really good within 2 weeks and it made my skin smell great.

Cons

  • I noticed that I did still break out a bit, and had a large blemish on my chin that quickly faded away since I decided to stick with this system for another week.
  • moderately severe
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 21
  • I recommend using this treatment.
