bottom line, is that u use this 1st, then 2 others, u can buy it anywhere but I got mine at Wal-Mart n yea it was bout 15$ 4 the whole set.. anyways, the kit keeps your skin 4rm being too red thats bout it.. if u want systs or big things like that to go away, I recommend the Zeno aka zit zapper lol.. u can get it at any drug store.. but anyways, it works good 4 the redness.. n does'nt burn your skin.. real easy on it.. anyways, I use alot of things b4 but this is'nt gud 4 moderate-real severe acne.. only gud 4 low case acne, to like keep your skin smooth n soft n scrub a lil pimples u got, but not alot.. I have alot of methods.. I've had real bad acne but it's finally calming down.. like, sit in the sun 4 bout 30-45 minutes each day if possible on a mat or sumthin, that really cleared my acne good n is fast.. n natural ha.. email me if you'd like to many more methods..leifsjohnson@[link removed]

Pros:

A little goes a long way, and smells great for being an acne treatment

Cons:

none that i can think of

This is a GREAT product. I use it at night before bed, and in the morning after i wash my face. It can double as a moisturizer, I sometimes use a regular lotion (garnier skin renew) if I'm feeling overly dry. The scent is nice. Its a very light treatment and works great.

Pros:

It last long and reduces some redness

Cons:

Takes a -long- time to show effects.

I used it for about two weeks and it really didnt do much for me. Maybe thats just me, but I stopped using it and well not much of a difference. Its an alright product for someone with patience and/or doesnt care how long your acne will clear up =]]

Pros:

- Lightweight, great day formula, works for me, lasts a long time

Cons:

- No result at first, had to wait for them =/, does not always get rid of all pimples (if I have a big one, I use Garnier's SOS Pen over it), tkaes a long time to rubs in, occasional flakiness

At first, I bought this product a few months ago. It didn't work, even though I persisted for around a month. My regime back then was cleanse with Cetaphil, apply, and repeat during night. I got impatient, and bought Clean&Clear's Advantage Spot treatment, which sorta worked, until I decided I didn't like the stinging feeling. A month ago, I decided to use this as a day formula, and the Clean&Clear as a night formula. That made my acne clear up a bit, more, though I did still breakout. I decided to throw the Clean&Clear out, and just use this. The regime I was is the same as the one I did when I first bought it, but now it works. I have no idea why it didn't work before. My acne is only on my forehead, and a few months ago, I just let my bangs hide my pimples. I still do that during school, but whenever I don't go out, I pull my hair back. Maybe that helped. I'm not sure. My forehead is much better now. It only has red marks that I have to get rid of now.

Pros:

Makes skin feel very smooth and moisturized. Smells great. Easy to apply.

Cons:

Doesn't do anything for acne. Expensive.

It could work for people with light acne, or someone just looking for a great moisturizer. For acne control? Not so much.

Pros:

silky, light consistency, very gentle, effective on mild acne

Cons:

doesn't really exfoliate, added scent

It's so gentle that I can't believe the concentration of salycilic acid(2%). It moisturises enough so that I don't need any additional moisturiser. I don't think it works as an exfoliator though. Anyway, it's a great moisturiser for those who have whiteheads or mild inflammatory acne.
