| Pros | Worked fast... started seeing results in about 3 days |
|---|---|
| Cons | it smells bad |
| Bottom line | I had spots left over from a really bad breakout about a month ago. So I bought this prodict and today is only day 4 and the spots have faded considerably. Not totally yet but there is improvement! I use it twice a day after using the regular proactiv kit!!! |

| Pros | It delivers what it promises. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Fades the skin, but necessarily the scaring or post-acne spots. Hard to manage the lotions from the tiny bottle. Funny smell. |
| Bottom line | Small zits I get every so often, which is fine. But its the post-acne marks that I hate to live with. When I followed the directions and applied to the affected area, I ended up lightening up the affected area leaving it lighter than the rest. So I had to apply to the entire face for even skin tone. However I found as it lightens the skin, the marks become more pronounced but do become eventually become softer. Not an overnight success but the results are good for the long run. LASTLY- you cannot use hydroquinone any longer than a 3 month period. The liver will become damaged if done so. |
