Pros:Really does the job. Best for preventing scars to come, not existing scars (in my opinion).
Cons:I remember it smelling horrible. (But because it worked, I grew to love the awful smell?)
Bottom Line:I'm 22 now, and I used this product in the summer when I was in 7th grade. (I know, a while ago). But I was in the process of growing out my bangs, and underneath that hair was literally hundreds of zits-- almost covering every space of skin on my forehead. I used this product EVERY day after I showered and by the time school came around and my hair was out of my face, my forehead was completely zit free AND scar free. It was like magic. Nobody would have ever known I had such a bad skin problem underneath my bangs. Maybe my skin was more resilient then since I was young-- but my parents and I called it the miracle in a bottle. I think it works best if you have a high amount of zits in a small area, and you want them to go away without leaving noticeable scars. But I'm 22 now, and I promise there is no remaining scars from that time in my life-- only scars from current zits that have yet to fade!

Pros:One of few BHA/AHA combo products in the proper pH range to be effective.
Cons:Discontinued.
Bottom Line:I was able to buy a lot of these on ebay but it lasts so long I don't know how long it will take me to use them all up. Do they ever expire? There is no date on them. If anyone is desperate for one, email me through this site (username is Lutya).

Pros:Does not irritate sensitive skin. It was the best product on the market. You don't need anything else once you use it properly except of course a gentle soap to wash your face and/or body. (Hint: LESS is more, use only one pump at a time).
Cons:I became dependent on it and now it's discontinued in stores!!! (US $7.50 = JA $520)
Bottom Line:When one door closes another opens. I went on a search and found two products that actually work better.

First, the OIL-FREE ACNE WASH CREAM CLEANSER is great for sensitive skin. Although it smells bad, it really is worth it. My skin looks almost like baby skin now.

Second, the CLEAR PORE OIL-ELIMINATING ASTRINGENT does what the multivitamin lotion use to do for breakouts (THAT IS, PREVENTS THEM!!!) and it does it even better IF you use it appropriately. You don't need to use it more than twice a week. And NEVER USE IT ON BROKEN SKIN. If you must put your fingers in your face, use only the wash until the skin has formed a scab. Then, use this to clear up in record time.

Folks, these two are wonderful. Though I use to practically worship the multivitamin treatment, I'm happier now because with my replacements MY SKIN DOES NOT BREAKOUT ONCE I STOP USING THEM. I only have to keep my fingers out to prevent new breakouts (which, I admit, is kinda hard when you're str

Pros:I've been a almost devout Neutrogena customer for years. I always come back. This product was amazing and cheap and had the right ingredients.
Cons:They failed and no longer make it.
Bottom Line:I just bought a product the other day and it reminded me sooo much of Neutrogena. Thus began my quest. The closest product to this is Bare Escentuals: Bare Vitamins Skin Rev-er Upper. It smells the same, similar coloring, and works the same. It does cost 4xs as much but worth it if we have no other options.

Pros:Last really long!! works as treatment and mosturizer....
Cons:discontinued
Bottom Line:I tell you this product works, and like all other acne treatments you just ahve to keep using it. I had a bad flare up in high school paid alot at the dermatologist for 3 months, going there every 6 weeks. Of course it worked but it cost, needless to say that was my first meeting with this product. I bougth it over the counter from then on. Its been a few years since then, just finished university, trying for the professional woman look; you know how it is. So I thought why not start a skin regime cleanser, toner, treatment. went out but no multi vitamin!!! searching the web I know see its discontinued. i found a bottle in a store, but I will go back to buy whatever they have left....
