Pros:

It REALLY cleared up my pimples :) The facewash is AMAZING since it does exfoliates the skin which is soooo good for my skin, you don't even know :)

Cons:

It smells kinda bad :/ The toner smells the worse though so i use seabreeze toner (smells like Vic but thats better than the Acne Free toner's fragrance). Also, when I rub too hard when exfoliating with the facewash, my skin gets irritated and red.

Overall I can say this product is swell, besides the fragrance matter. The cost of this product is veryyy agreeable. ProActiv dried out my skin sooo I would choose Acne Free :)

Pros:

It's cheap.

Cons:

everything else about the product.

It's done absolutely nothing for my acne. My face is extremely red. But maybe that's because the burning is so bad it feels as though someone poured acid on my face. Mind you, I washed my face about an hour and a half ago and it still burns. My face is ridiculously dry. The package says that you'll see results in as "little as 3 days" I'm going on day 6 and my acne is actually worse than it was before. Don't use it.

Pros:

NONE

Cons:

I had horrible, horrible dried out skin, to the point that it seemed burned and chapped. I will NEVER, EVER use this product again

Sure its affordable, but you end up spending more money on products to heal your skin after it is dried out and chapped and red.

Is the redness and itchyness part of the process?
Hi, I started using this 2 days ago. And my face turns so red and very itchy, but I can see that my acne did clear up. I'm just scared that if i continue using this product it might harm my skin.. is that part of the process or shud i stop using this?, Thank you

not for me..

Pros:

works for some skin types

Cons:

caused major inflammation of existing acne
caused more allergic sensitive break outs
cost is not too bad, but I have found much cheaper ways to treat

I have acne that is largely caused by sensitivity to chemicals.. both in what i eat and apply to my skin.. instant irritation with most man made products.. this product caused more swelling and inflammation for me. However, I gave it to my mom who had great results with it.. so, may be worth a try.. Walmart sells an Equate brand of this product that I haf bought for my mom to try and it did not work as well. I have found only natural, I mean as in 1 ingredient, baking soda, whole foods is whats right for the type of skin I have.

Help?

Pros:

Softens skin

Cons:

Kinda drys out patches on skin

Well I have been experiencing acne for awhile now and nothing seemed to work.so I went out and bought acne free treatment and I don't know what to think I have had it for about 5 days but it says on the box results in 1-3 days I don't really see any results yet but I think I'll keep using for another week because people have seen dramatic results in 2 weeks. I don't know am I expecting too much in a couple days?

Effective but harsh

Pros:

Works to get rid of acne

Cons:

A lot of money
Harsh on sensitive skin

I do like this but I thought I didn't think I had sensitive skin. I bought this at cvs because my friend recommended it. My acne has decreased but the area on both sides of my mouth are irritated, dry (flakey peeling), and a bit swollen. I regret not buying the sensitive skin package. I obviously can't return it and I'm not going to waist my money and buy it again for $20. I'm very disappointed

Pros:

clears up acne

Cons:

maximum strength is not necessarily the best

I used the AcneFree Severe for about a week and a half. At first it felt nice, and my acne actually cleared up quite a bit. However, the 10% benzoyl peroxide is a bit too much for your skin, and after a week it was red and I had a skin rash all over. My friends asked me why my face was so red and I didn't know what to say. It was so flaky! Maybe if I kept using it my skin would get used to it, but for now I'm stopping.
