I cannot express how much I love this product. I have had acne since I was 12....I am 18 years old and about to leave for college (exactly 25 days from now to be exact.) And I just could not stand the fact that i had to leave with such an ugly face! I would wake up with about 5 new pimple on my forehead, and maybe like 3-5 on each cheek and also my chin. So one day my dad was watching tv and said "hey have you tried skin id?" I hadn't but I have heard great things from friends. So i gave in and I thought "why not?". So about a week after ordering it (and by the way you MUST be precise when you take your evaluation) I opened the box up and gave it a shot. I got 7-40-32 which came with a cream cleanser, toner, anti-acne cream, spot treatment, and a body spray for acne. I love every single thing! The cream cleanser I use with a little rubber scrubbie cleaner because i feel like i save soap that way...and also I am not using my hands. After rinsing I use just one dab of toner on a cotton wipe and use it all over, it is not drying at all and I have combination skin! When my face dries I use the spot treatment and let that dry, and lastly I use the anti-acne cream. When all of that is dry I follow up with a moisturizer from ponds that come in a little tub, it is the perfect amount of moisture without making my skin oily. So after doing this day and night for about a month, I noticed that I have not had any new pimples for a while...and all of my old ones were either gone or almost dried up, my face was beginning to look like it did when I was little: smooth and clear and my freckles were visible again. But yes, of course I have scars but they are just light pink or close to invisible now and I use bio oil as my night time moisturizer to help fade them. Honestly I cannot promise you anything, but I believe that skin id was a miracle worker for me, the only time I got a pimple while using this was on my period...it was just ONE. Please give this a shot, I am so amazed.

Pros

  • Works AMAZINGLY
  • Cleared my skin completely

  • So easy to use

Cons

  • I wish it was a little cheaper, but it was 100% worth it
  • moderately severe
  • for about a month
  • $ 45
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I loved it at first, but the more I used it the more it burned my skin. The skin around my nose and under my mouth was extremely irritated. I felt it did more damage than good to my face. When I put it on at night, I noticed that my pillow cases were bleached in the morning. Something that strong that can bleach your pillow cases while you're sleeping on them should not be used on your face! It's expensive and you have to pay monthly. It's no bueno.

Pros

  • Works in the beginning

Cons

  • Dries out the skin!
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 30
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

this product started working for me after a week. My skin is so much clearer now. I had breakouts every few days before this product and now my face is clear. The only downside to this product is that it will dry your face out. When you first start using it start only once a day and make sure you use a good moisterizer on your face.

Pros

  • works quickly, smells good, fast delivery

Cons

  • dries out skin
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 40
  • I recommend using this treatment.

It's definitely worth the money. It is personalized for your skin and thats why it works so well.

At first, I was hesitant to pay $40 to buy it. But then I realized, "Heck, I'll do anything to get rid of this acne!" So I bought it.

When I got it, the bottles were smaller than I imagined but I guess thats good, because before I ran out, it stopped working. I took the evaluation again and it recommended me with new products.

I've been re-ordering the same products from Skin iD since then! I love it!

Pros

  • Clears Ance
  • Moisturizes Skin
  • Works with the Regimen

Cons

  • Had to take the evalution 2 times
  • moderately severe
  • for a few months
  • $ 40
  • I recommend using this treatment.

It worked for me for about the first three months. Because they base your products on your lifestyle, I read that you should retake the quiz before your next order is submitted. I had some problems with dry skin, and I realized that originally I had put that my skin wasn't sensitive, when it was, so I went through it again, and got a new system. The new system didn't work well. I think I broke out more with the new system than I did before I was using anything.

It seemed to me like I couldn't win. If I used the stronger products like they originally suggested, my acne went away, but my skin was really really really dry. The new system for dry, sensitive skin, didn't clear my acne. Because the system changes for everyone, and depends on how correctly you answer the questions, it may work for others, but it didn't work out for me.

If you're interested, try it. You set how often you receive new product, so I'd set it to the latest date, until you decide. If you don't like it, cancel it right away. You have to call to cancel the order. I hate phone calls, it's a bit of a phobia for me, so this really proved a challenge.

Pros

  • Works
  • Cheaper than most systems
  • Quick to apply
  • Easy system to follow

Cons

  • It only worked for a few months.
  • Canceling it is difficult
  • You should retake the ID every few months
  • Dried out my skin
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 30
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I've used this for about a year, probably. It does help my face, but it doesn't make my skin completely clear (then again, I have a lot of hyperpigmentation from my acne, so it will be a long time before my face is "clear").

I do still break out every once in a while (not badly compared to some people), but as long as I keep up with doing this twice a day, it helps out a lot and I don't have that many active pimples on my face.

Honestly, I'm sure there are better treatments out there, but from what little I've tried for my acne, this has given me the best results. Hence why I give it 4 stars instead of 3 or something.

The one thing about this is that if you want to use a lot of the BP cream on your face, you will run out of it before your next shipment (though it doesn't help that my brother uses my BP cream probably). I've had to buy some from a store to last me until the next shipment.

$30 is how much I pay every 2-3 months, depending on what I set how often I want to order a new shipment.

Pros

  • Does help clear up acne

Cons

  • Probably won't clear up your acne entirely
  • moderate
  • for about a year
  • $ 30
  • I recommend using this treatment.
