Pros:

started noticing a difference in my acne within 24 hours! Used it at night only and within 3 days (72 hours) acne was gone. I have oily skin real bad especially at the end of a day and here in Alabama on our hot and humid days! But this product makes my skin feel clean and clear and it works quickly. I now use it just every other night to maintain the clear skin! Started using it on my chest and back now! And I use all three steps.

Cons:

nothing really. Yes, it does dry and slightly burn my/your skin but especially if I use it a lot. Like I said though, I use it just at night and not twice a day and not every night now and it doesn't affect my skin at all except to clear the acne! I think the whole drying out of the skin and the redness and burning is going to happen with most acne products that use benzoyl peroxide, but that is what works!

I tried Proactive, hated the price, and the smell was not pleasant. it was expensive and the way you had to get it was a pain. My niece used this and recommended it so I picked up my first pack and will use it till I die! I don't know what I would do if they ever stopped producing it or selling it over the counter and the price is exceptionally affordable for the product and the pocket book. Proactiv eat your heart out!

Pros:

Cleared up my acne
Helped even skin my tone
Got rid of blackheads

Cons:

Occasionally dries my skin out (can be solved with occasional moisturizing)
Can bleach clothing if not washed off completely

I've had acne on my chin and between my nose and cheeks for many years and after trying a bunch of products, I think I've found one that actually works. I've been using it for about 5 months now and I get maybe one zit a month. It has also reduced the size of my pores and diminished my blackheads. The only down side is that I have to use all three products morning and night without skipping a day. It can be a pain but if you are really dedicated, then it's worth it!

Pros:

-Put it on at night and by the next morning I could tell my skin was clearer
-I have been using the product for about a week and can definitely tell it's clearing up my mild acne

Cons:

-Yesterday I noticed that my skin seems to "bumpy" (not pimples or cysts, just bumpy sand paper feel). I think it is probably the lotion dying out my skin since I've been using morning and night, as the instructions said. So, I've started using the lotion only as spot treatment and I plan to cut down use of the system to once a day and use a gentle cleanser.

So far, I like it. I've never had acne until I turned 20 and I've tried multiple topical prescriptions and antibiotics, to no avail. This seems to be doing the job!

Pros:

This product is cheap at Target. I have only used it for 1 day at night and when i woke up, pimples have already began to dissapear.

Cons:

When i woke up my face was burning/ itching and swollen around the eyes, Looked like i got into a bad fight or was up crying all night. I guess i'm sensitive to the Benzoyle, because this also happend when i tried Proactiv but with Proactiv it burned worse and was crazy red. The swelling did go down through out the day but left a red flushed look on the cheeks that still hasn't gone away yet.

I bought the sensitive skin one and i think that is even a little too strong for me. I think mostly it's the step 3 repairing lotion that makes the face burn. I will continue a few more days to see if i adjust because day 1 has shown promise. I will have to keep it away from my eye area to avoid the swelling. My boyfriend says "bad news your face is swollen but good news your pimples are gone" i hope i don't have to choose!

Pros:

Starts working right away. I used this around 8pm Friday night. My face was Moderatly broke out with some swallon and red and sort of soar pimples. When i woke that next morning my face was not as red or swollen. Pimples were shrinking.
Did not over dry my face.

Cons:

I bought this Friday night used it That night and twice a day over the weekend. Sunday night after going to the St. Patty's day parade I came home with a super red face. It was about 56* and a little sunny but it was not sun burn! My face looks like a nice shade of sun burn.

I can deal with a little redness besides its nothing coverup can not handle. Pimples are going away. So Im happy. Proactive did not work for me at all. The only thing i did like about Proactiv is i did not turn red.

I just started breaking out recently and I needed a product that could cure my acne fast! I grabbed this and it worked! Until I saw that it made my skin peel like crazy. I looked like a snake who was shredding! It was horrible

Pros:

The repair lotion is OK as a spot treatment

Cons:

Terribly drying
Made me breakout
Extreme burned skin

I did a lot of research prior to purchasing this system. I have been struggling with adult onset acne (nodules, cysts, pustules) for about 5 years (I'm almost 30). Around Christmas, my skin was just getting worse and worse. It was so bad I refused to leave the house - not even heavy make-up helped. I have done prescription medications, antibiotics, etc... I can now add this system to the list of "Didn't Work". I have very sensitive skin and purchased the sensitive skin kit. I used it morning and evening and stayed true to the exact instructions. My skin became so swollen, red and inflamed right away. Thinking my skin would adjust, I stayed on this system for 4 weeks until I just had to stop - the breakouts were getting progressively worse as each day passed. I rinsed the cleanser off in the shower one day and inadvertently let some drip on my neck - it literally burned the skin on my neck. When i started this system, I was really hoping I would be writing a review about how this product changed my life. But, if anything, it made my skin much, much worse. I have since started using the Skinceuticals line on the recommendation of a friend who is a Dermatology P.A. - It's amazing. I think sensitive, adult skin just has much different needs.

I think it works. I'm just going to start using it at night and wash my face with a gentle soap in the morning and use a good moisturizer.

Pros:

Clears acne!

Inexpensive - available

Cons:

Ran out of toner and lotion within three weeks, yet one bottle of cleanser lasts months - cannot buy items separately

Took longer to take effect than promised

This system worked well for clearing the moderate acne that I had. It took longer to work than promised, but it gave me almost completely clear skin. My only disappointment with this is that I had to buy multiple boxes when I ran quickly ran out of steps 2 & 3, when I hadn't even used half of step 1. (The bottles are not equal if you are planning on using all 3 steps twice daily) (Items should be sold separately) The product itself is very satisfactory! I'd recommend it to anyone who want's to clear their acne. (It's worth having to buy a few boxes)
