Pros:

works within 2 weeks( results vary)

Cons:

drys out your skin, if you don't use some time of lotion with it

use it, works faster than proactive, and results are better. Not to mention its much more affordable if you're going to use this on a daily basis. Overall, I would say this product made my skin look a lot better in a shorter amount of time than I expecetd.

Pros:

It controls my acne pretty well. I still get break outs around my period, but I guess that cannot be helped. I really like the severe regimen with the retinol complex. That stuff feels really good on my face without being greasy.

Cons:

Bleaches clothing and towels, leaves my skin looking dead and dry.

I have been using this stuff for about four months. AcneFree is a little stronger than proactiv, and definately is cheaper. Proactiv did not work for me at all. I like that I can run out and buy a bottle of the cleanser if I run out of it. I did switch out toners though; I use Estee Lauder's toner with it instead. It sucks I have to get the toner to get the retinol renewal complex, but it is still much less expensive than other acne treatments. It is the most effective treatment I have used over the counter to date. It is not perfect, but when you have been dealing with acne as long as I have (ten years), you get used to it I suppose.

Pros:

affordable and cheap

Cons:

dry the skin, sometimes came back worse

dies come in singles (at taget and walmart)a 4 oz bottle at walmart is $5.79. at target i get a 8 oz bottle for the same price. i guess i should also be looking into the toner as well because the wash and the topical was working but now still getting pimples again. but i will not give up on product. i like that is dries out the skin instead of leaving it oily.

Pros:

It works!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's cheap!

Cons:

You run out of toner before the other stuff and bleaches your towels

I have suffered from acne since I was in high school and I'm now 26 years old. I have extremely oily skin and nothing I've ever used has been entirely effective: Proactiv, Differin, Azelex, Benzyclide, antibiotics, you name it. I would get at least 2 zits a day all over my face, BIG ones and they were horrible and sore. I actually used Acne Free for awhile and it immediately cleared up my skin but after awhile started getting zits again so decided to go for the Acne Free Severe. This stuff works even better! Now I get a zit maybe once a month and they last for like 2 days and that's it. I used to be sensitive to Benzoyl Peroxide but I was willing to try anything and not care what did it did. THANK YOU ACNE FREE!!! I finally found something that works!! I'm now attempting the Lemon Juice application to see if it helps my acne scars. hmmm..

Pros:

This product cleared my forehead immediately. It exfoliated my skin and felt so soft! My boyfriend was even amazed at how well it worked, so he even bought some.

Cons:

It does dry the skin out but has improved with time. When I sweat after working out, my face stings REALLY bad and is red and blotchy. I have stopped using this product on my whole entire face. I ONLY use it on my forehead now.

This product is great for acne and I would use it with caution. If you have sensitive skin, just be cautious. Otherwise, you will have great skin!

Pros:

Defintely cleared up most of my acne made my skin feel smooth and refreshed cheaper than proactive also works better and you can find it at a local drugstore like walgreens which is right up the street from me.

Cons:

QUITS WORKING!!! Sometimes made eyes red and sting bad but not often sometimes if I accidently used a lot of the repairing lotion it made my eyes sting and my face pale and red.

I have had severe acne since I was about 14 and I am now 16 and I have tried every over the counter medication face wash, proactive, etc. trecacyceling, etc. I have a bad habit with sticking with one medication I think if I use a medication it and don't see results the next day its dosen't work. I finally started using the original 3 white bottles of Acne Free and I saw results in like three days. Everyone said I didn't have bad acne at all. Of course I had a few pimples but I'm fine with that but when I have pimples,blackheads,scars all over my face and girls won't even look at me it gets annoying and let's just say with Acne Free I had a lot more attention with the girls than I ever have! I also have take trecacyclying, the best I can spell that and use acne free. Acne Free worked wonders to clear my face up for two months that it justs quits working. My face is starting to break out like it use to and its so depressing. I might try the regimen if the severe steps don't work.

Pros:

works great! eventually it starts to wear out, and when it wears out, ur skin will get irritated... I STRONGLY RECCOMMEND ACNE FREE SEVERE rather than there original product. it took me about 1 whole year for it to wear out for me, was well worth it.

Cons:

dont bother using the toner, it makes ur skin more oily, and the retinol i skipped becaused i never saw resuts, but i didnt give it much of a chance.. my DKR is coming in next week so im switching to that, will see how it works

acne free is a great product, if it doesnt work like you want, switch to ACNEFREE SEVERE, i reccomend skipping the toner, and if u want to give the retinol (retin A) a chance go ahead, i used it for about a week before skipping the step, since i didnt see any good results coming from it. Your skin will eventually get irratated from too much BP, since its 10%... but there is really something in that 10% time released BP in acne free severe.... im switching to DKR becuase of the irritation acnefree caused me, and i will see how it turns out... also u can get this at ur local stores! like walmart, cvs, walgreens!

Pros:

The price was good, and is comparable to proactive which I've been wanting to try for awhile

Cons:

Doesn't really seem to do much more to clear up my skin than any other cleanser. It is a little rough if you have sensitive skin, so I have to use it sparingly.

If proactive works for you, than this is a great cheaper alternative. However, if your acne is more hormonal vs. bacterial, then, it may not do much more than your regular cleanser.
