Pros:

Acne free used to be a great product but the company kept messing around with the ingredients. The old, 2.5% benzoyl peroxide formula was perfect! Then they changed to 2.25% BP. Made me breakout. The new formula has tea tree oil. WATCH OUT!

Cons:

Want the old formula back, 2.5% benzoyl peroxide.

This used to be a great product. The 2.5% benzoyl peroxide was great. Then Ã…cneFree changed the formulation. They changed to 2.25%. And get this, it was 2.25% on the bottle but not the box. I brokeout. Called the company and indeed, they were trying a new formula. I ordered 7 bottles of the old formula and have been good for a while though now it's running out. So I'm out looking for the old formula again. Now this new formula has a bunch of new ingredients including tea tree oil. If you're sensitive like me, WATCH OUT!! I broke out very badly from this. Highly allergenic ingredient. AcneFree needs to go back to the original formula. They should know that anyone with acne problems probably also has sensitivity issues. Where's the research guys? PLEASE GO BACK TO THE 2.5% BENZOYL PEROXIDE FORMULA FROM A YEAR AGO!!

November 3, 2008

Pros:

This is the first product I've used in 15 years the consistantly clears up my acne and keeps my skin clear. Even little zits I feel coming on disappear almost overnight. I will NEVER be without this!

I have tried EVERYTHING short of accutane which my doctor suggested - the side effects freaked me out too much. Nothing else I tried worked - not pills, creams or anything you'd find in the drugstore. I tried Retin-A with zero results, Proactive with absolutely no change. I tried this as a last resort and after about 4 weeks of consistant use I was a believer! I haven't had a breakout or even a zit in about 4 months, my skin doesn't get oil-slick shiny half way through the day and my skin feels fantastic! So smooth and clean! Believe me, I know that nothing works for everyone, but if you haven't at least tried it, you could be missing out on the best thing that happened to me in a very very long time! My only issue is that with the packaging - the toner bottle looks EXACTLY like the cleanser which is irritating when you've taken your contact lenses out already and can't read the labels. A very very small criticism though. I LOVE THIS STUFF!

Pros:

-Get's rid of acne although not as quickly as they will have to believe.
-Relatively easy system and cheap
-Although the bottles look small they will last you

Cons:

-Smells like acne medication lol...
-Is very drying
-Takes a bit longer to work

This product did get rid of my acne but it took 2 weeks, not the 3 days they advertise. Your skin texture will improve but your acne will take a while to clear and the formula is very strong and drying. I would recommend using the wash everyday but limit the toner to your problem areas maybe a few times a week. The lotion is really thin and not very nourishing so unless you want dry dry skin I would invest in a better cream to put on top. It was cheap though and as long as you adjust to your skin type and get a better moisturizer you might find that this will be enough to get rid of your acne. I had terrible breakouts after I got Mirena put in and nothing would work to clear them. I never had bad skin until I had this thing put into my uterus! My face looked like a battle field but Acnefree has mostly cleared it up. Occasionally I'll get a pimple but it's usually tiny and near my period and it's no where near as bad anymore. So it's probably not the best system but it's cheap and easy.

Pros:

smells better, makes me wash my face more

Cons:

turns my skin red between step 2 and 3...and so far all ive gotten was more pimples on my forhead, but imma use the whole bottle see if its just clearing things out...

it just takes time,

Pros:

Produces the same results for moderate to severe acne as Proactiv would.

Cons:

This product did not leave me acne free. It caused my skin to become more succeptable to inflamation, my face didnt do that before. My face was covered with red pulsing cysts.

This product will likely be exellent for faces with light acne. Unfortunatly NOT very effective on faces with moderate to severe acne. I even tried AcneFree SEVERE, still with the same results.

Pros:

This product is very good. My face always breaks out around my mouth and acne free took care of it all! My face is so smooth and I finally feel confident. I highly recommend!

IT WORKS!

Pros:

Price. I purchased my kit at Ulta (19.99) and used their $3.50 off coupon, so it was SUPER cheap. Great oil control, unlike Proactive. Terminator 10 (sold separately) worked very well for "spot treatments"

Cons:

Did not help or prevent acne. If anything, I broke out MORE and my skin developed white heads (which I had never had before!)

You get what you pay for!

Pros:

None

Cons:

It didn't work for me, it actually gave me acne. It was quite a bit expensive also.

I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone. I did use this product for a week, says on the box "Clearer skin in just days". I went back to what I was using and my acne started clearing up, those products together were under $15.
