Pros:

This product is less expensive and it dries up pretty fast and doesn't leave that sticky feeling on my skin.

Cons:

None

I have been using this for about a year now and it's pretty good in my opinion. I used lots of product before including Proactiv. In fact I was using Proactiv when I started breaking out in little pimples all over my face and decided to switch to AcneFree which helped clear them up. I don't break out that often and there are times when my face would be clean for months but then would suddenly starting forming huge ones that take about a week to heal. It's pretty much the same with every kind of acne products I have used. AcneFree does help keep those small ones off my face though so that's definitely a plus.

Pros:

None

Cons:

I was using Clearasil, then switched to Acne Free. It made it a lot worse and dried my face out. I switched back to Clearasil and it immediately improved.

It doesn't work.
September 21, 2008

Pros:

Made my face less oily.

Cons:

Did nothing, made me breakout more.

I have cystic acne, and it seems nothing will help prevent these large bumps...
September 17, 2008

Pros:

Cleared acne in one day. Inexpensive.

Cons:

You get a large break out a bout three days after because your pores are getting cleared up.

Stay with it. Don't give up otherwise your breakouts will get WORSE. Do the same with any other product.

Pros:

Decent price- no shipping to pay. Did clear up on acne nicely in 3 days actually, smoothed out surface of skin, fewer breakouts.

Cons:

Huge painful dryness around chin and sides of mouth- caused scaling for me. Lotion did fix overnight though. Not working well for cystic type of acne still have firm non red blemishes after 21/2 weeks.

Worth price and easy to purchase almost at any store, does improve acne greatly so worth it to me.

Pros:

works really well.

Cons:

dries out face pretty bad.

definately recommend this if you are patient, and dont mind a little drieness once in a while.
August 25, 2008

Pros:

Clears up acne well, and quickly. Used consistently, I experienced a significant reduction in my overall acne. It even tackled my extreme cysts and horrible breakouts!

Cons:

It does not do well to prevent future breakouts. I end up breaking out even when using the system, and then the new zits clear up quickly. It makes your skin VERY dry, especially with the alcohol in Step 2.

While I have been using the AcneFree system, I still have a small amount of acne, but overall it does its job well. It does not take care of everything, and while i still have residual acne and breakouts on occasion, this system works satisfactorily for me. It does make your skin VERY, very dry, with the alcohol-based scrub twice daily, but using a moisturizer helps a lot with that. I would recommend this as a good starting place for anyone stepping up to a "system" type treatment over just using benzyl peroxide by itself, but there are better treatments out there if you want to pay more or spend more time taking care of your acne. Its very easy to buy and use, at $20 for a box and informative instructions.

Pros:

none

Cons:

made my face very oily, left big red marks, and made my acne much worse.

don't try it
August 11, 2008

Pros:

It works extremely fast, i would have never guessed that it was going to work, I tried proactiv and that was a failure i tried the regular acne free and that was also a failure but the acne free severe kit was the one for me

Cons:

It seems like it just leaves a little bit of acne left but nothing bad

I would recommend this to people who have tried every creams on the market with no success, This actually does work, I am one of those people that acne has never Gone away for me what ever i tried, but after discovering acne free severe my skin looks amazing now, Just make sure you use the steps every day when told to or it will not work

Cons:

The smell is awful!!!

I only used this product for one night and I threw the bottles away the next day. I couldn't take the smell, neither could my husband. It actually made me dizzy. I didn't like the way it made my face feel either. I'm going to try ProActive.
