Pros:

Clears the skin quickly and consistently. For severe acne it reduces it greatly, while for normal acne it can create perfect skin. Pores are minimized and redness is reduced. I've never had skin this clear.

Cons:

You have to be consistent.

This is the best product I've ever used, and I've used MANY products. My skin is not perfect, but it is closer than its ever been and I feel beautiful. I've used it for a a month and on my teenage skin it still works.

Pros:

this helped a LOT at the beginning, especially with small bumps on my forehead.

Cons:

the cleanser is drying, especially in the winter. it's not as bad in the summer. effectiveness got worse after a while.

it cleared me up at first, but after a couple of months it stopped working. the bottle gets less and less effective over time, so don't buy the three-month supply, but get a new set each month. i noticed amazing results after opening a new set. sooo. it's pretty good, but it's not THE ONE, at least not for me. try it out, though, just in case. :)

I have tried this product for about 3 months now. At first, it dried out my zits after a few days, then I had a HUGE breakout. The BP is supposed to draw out the impurities from under the skin. But give it time, it will go away. The only problem I have is the red hyperpigmentation it leaves behind. I use differin gel every other night (along with the acnefree face wash ONLY) to help with the scar fading. It does dry out my face, but that is what oil-free moisturizer is for. Overall, I would say it is worth trying this product. Proactiv is twice as expensive and the grainy material in the cleanser irritated my face very badly.

Pros:

noticed immediate improvement, helped fade existing scars

Cons:

Hard to get last of creams out of bottle

I am in my early thirties and have had mild acne for as long as I can remember (3-5 blemishes at any given time). My big problem is that when the blemishes themselves resolve, I am left with dark spots of scarring on my medium toned skin. I have tried many different products through the years, but nothing with much success, so when I saw the AcneFree trial pack at Wal-Mart for $2.47 I figured what the heck! Boy, am I glad I did! After just one day of use, I noticed a difference in my skin--it felt smoother, looked more even-toned and there were no new blemishes. After a week of using it, my skin is completely free of acne and my scars have lightened up significantly! I am going to try the AcneFree scar treatment in conjunction with this to see how that works... For the price and the ease of use, I wish I had discovered this years ago! I highly recommend this for anyone with skin like mine--oily with moderate acne.

Pros:

* Worked
* Lasted fairly long
* Moisturizer didn't make my face greasy

Cons:

* Stopped working
* Started to burn when I used the cleanser
* Dryness
* Extreme Redness

I got this with high hopes to finally get rid of my light but yet still bothersome acne. I have sensitive skin and i have a fair complexion. I have bipolar skin, Its usually oily, but with certain products it gets extremely dry, so in the end id say i have oily skin. When I first got it, I was blown away. Within 2-3 days it was noticeably better which is a result i haven't gotten before, and I've tried a lot of products. So I continue to use it over the course of 2 and a half months I'd say, and I noticed my face had been getting more red more easily, very red. I had gone to Walgreens and picked up Eucerin redness relief cleanser to help tame it, and at this point my skin is very clear. I use Eucerin for 2 days or so, and my redness is down, but then i got a breakout (Which i don't believe is from Eucerin, more from 'that time of the month') so I go back to using the acne free cleanser. My face turned so red and got so irritated and it burned and stung SO bad. I was sure i had an allergic reaction or something like that. It was horrible. The redness had subsided by morning but I for sure didn't use it again. At this time i'm looking for a new regimen to replace this one, a more gentler one. This is probably a great product for not-so-sensitive skin people. Either way I'd say give it a shot, My skin just wasn't too fond of it.

Pros:

NONE

Cons:

Made me break out more
Caused severe irritation

I was really looking forward to this product as I am an adult with acne. I used it for about 3 weeks totally trusting the websites facts page when it said that you might break out more in the beginning because it's clearing your pores. But then I started getting irritation spots and before long they were so red and inflammed I could barely open my eyes. I immediatly discontinued use and since then any sort of lotion burns but my skin in the areas it irritated, around mouth, under eyes and eyelids is peeling. Without make up on I look like I have 2 large black eyes and I am very self-consious. Not to mention it never got rid of my acne which is what I was embarrassed about in the first place. I would not recommend it.

Pros:

Cheaper than Proactive

Cons:

Made my skin burning, dry, red, and bumpy.
Didn't work.
Annoying 3 step application.

The cleanser in particular is very grainy and irritated my moderately sensitive skin. It also didn't take care of my acne. I wouldn't recommend it unless you have super tough and oily skin.

Pros:

very inexpensive
smells delish

Cons:

when you buy a cheap brand you expect cheap reaction

Ugh i tried this producted twice in one day once in the morning and once in the evening. as soon as i used this product my face felt awsum like the stuff was really working. I used it again for a 3rd time and i notice my face was extreamly dry. As soon as i got to work i notice my face was really itchey i tried not to itch it because me knowing i would make it red and irrated. When i went to the restroom my face was red and puff and was really really dry! I figured it was some sort of reaction to it when i went home and washed my face with water and no soap my face felt a 100x better but after my face dried from the water it was DRY and RED! i would tell anyone who wants to try this producted to save you money dont do it! if you want qulity then pay a few extra bucks and buy the GOOD face wash this stuff SUCKS!
