Pros:

Rids blackheads quickly. Not overdrying. Didn't bleach clothing, bedding, or towels. Skin is smoother.

Cons:

Worsened acne.

I'm very happy that my blackheads are gone and that my skin is softer and smoother, but the acne around my mouth and on my chin has gotten considerably worse. I was developing a zit every few days. Now I'm waking up to pimples every morning. It's even more embarrassing than before.

Pros:

clears acne, sort of. i used the cleanser and the lotion for a while and it cleared my skin up a bit.

Cons:

leaves skin extra dry, and smells like pool cleaner. lotion ever leaves skin dry?! weird.

acne free would be good for some one with light acne, useless to those with cystic acne or moderate acne. good face wash though but not that great of an acne wash. if you know what i mean,

Pros:

none for me

Cons:

made my face leathery, dry, scaly, broke me out like crazy

I definitely did not see the promised results in 1-3 days, as advertised on the box. I expected it to dry my face out, but not to the extent that it did. Honestly, I'm not going to stick with a product that made my face so flaky and scaly that I couldn't tell what was a whitehead and what was dead skin. I broke out, getting five or six new zits EVERY DAY! My usually controllable zits turned into monster cysts that took another week after I stopped using this product to start to disappear. No matter what moisturizer I used my skin still itched and burned. After eight days of this torture I switched to just cetaphil cleaser and aveeno moisturizer, and face face is no clearer than it was before acnefree, but I feel so much better in my skin.

Pros:

Cleared up my skin in firts week.

Cons:

Dried out my skin so bad it made me look like I was peeling. Not to mention I looked like I had Rosecea becuase my skin was so red and itchy. I did use a moisturizer and it didnt even help a little.

May work for people with oily skin but not for normal to dry skin people.

Pros:

I found it at a drugstore

Cons:

HORRIBLE! Completly dried out my skin and it burned sooo bad I had to stop using it. My skin was red and it felt like sandpaper. I honestly can't even describe how horrible this was on my face. My face burnedsoo bad and i had more acne then before :(

I can't even describe how HORRIBLE this is! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!! This ruined my skin I felt so horrible when I was using this! I cried soooo much because of the burning and breakouts this caused. It burned to even look at my face :(. It took me about a month to make my face go back to normal and anything is better than this crap! HATED IT!!!!!!!!!

Pros:

worked for awhile.
huge step 1 was sold seperate (that was always the one that ran out first)

Cons:

dried out my skin so i had to use a moisterizer.
3 steps it too many

i have a few little pimples usually and this seemed to help it, but then stopped after awhile. i also got prescribed "clindamycin phosphate gel usp, 1%" almost 2 years ago so i always applied that after all 3 steps. i dont like products where its 3 steps (acnefree, proactiv) but thought i'd try it and it did the job for awhile. i have light to moderate acne sometimes, with dry skin so i have always had to use a moisturizer after washing my face

Pros:

Got rid of some light acne at first.

Cons:

still saw bad acne, and didnt help at all the second time.

The first time I used it, I was impressed at the results. Some of my acne was gone while some of it remained, but I was just happy that it was finally clearing. I stopped using it for about a week, because I ran out, and when I started back it made my acne worse. :(
