Pros:

Keeps skin clean and clear, benzoyl peroxide is effective at reducing redness of zits

Cons:

Redness if you use too much of each product or leave the cleanser or toner on too long.

I use this product a particular way. Since many complained of the cleanser causing redness and irritation, I wet my face, rub the cleanser quickly on, then wash it off immediately so that it cleans all the oil off but doesn't redden my skin. I don't use the toner because the one time I used it, it made my skin very red (and it contains alcohol as a main ingredient). Then I use the benzoyl peroxide as a spot treatment. Spreading it over a large area does nothing for my skin except irritate it. I find that this product works really well this way. Granted, my acne was under control when I first started using it but it keeps new breakouts from forming and gives my skin time to heal. I definitely recommend it for people with light to moderate acne.

Pros:

-worked effectivly
-not expensive
-and i ♥♥♥ the cleanser

Cons:

-sometimes dries out

I a teenager and have been using this product for about 4.5 months now. I have had pretty good sucess with this product. By the end of my first set my skin was almost clear except for some small untoicable skin colored bumps by my nose , and some noticable skin colored bumps on my cheeks and forehead. Along with a 1-2 small zits... this may sound unsucessful but from where i started i was very happy. In other reviews i saw people mention drying out that is the repair lotion that has the benzoyl peroxide which dries the face, so what i recommend is cutting back the use of the repair lotion to just once a day or every other day or stoping with the RL until the dryness goes down. If that does not work just use the cleanser in the morning and maybe one of the other two at night. And if u expirence breaking out more in the begining, its normal and keep using the product. Anyway now I am on my second set, between buying sets i skipped a few days and my face totally broke out and i havent been able to get my skin back to how it use to be when i finished my first set, and that may be because i sometimes dont use the full set of 3 even when my face isnt dried out. What i also recommend using with this is burts bee acne spot treatment that helped alot too and quickly dried out the pimple. So anyway give the product a try and make sure to wash morning and night. ---btw im only giving 4 stars because i havent been able to get my skin back to the way it use to look with this product---

Pros:

cleared skin fast.

Cons:

dryness at first.
stopped working needed to take time off from it.

this product cleared my skin up faster than I thought. it dried my skin to no end at first but I stuck with it and with a good moisturizer you'll be fine after a few weeks.. after a few months it stopped working for me though.. I thought I needed the stronger one so I tried AcneFree Severe. Did not work at all. Dried my skin beyond repair.. So I took a few months off AnceFree all together. Now I'm back on and it seems to be working great.

Pros:

So far so good! I am not great at remembering to use it, but when i do the acne does go away! SOO MUCH BETTER THAN PROACTIV. The commercials make me mad and the price is ridiculous for something that doesn't work! I hope it continues to clear up my skin.

Cons:

May dry up skin, so use moisturizer.

It's worth a try! Not everyone is the same but It will most likely work on you! DONT WASTE MONEY ON PROACTIV

Pros:

Acnefree cleared up about 75% of my acne and made the other 25% smaller and flatter. It really helped me to deal with my problem.

Cons:

It takes forever to put on and dries out my face a little.

This stuff WILL help your acne alot, but don't expect it to completely cure the symptoms of acne.

Pros:

Worked quickly - within 2 days; easy to purchase at retail stores; no commitment to buy future like Proactiv. Small convenient bottles. I've used over a month and still have plenty left.

Cons:

Some redness, but better than acne.

I had moderate/severe middle age acne. I had perfect skin as a teen, but got acne at age 43. A friend recommended Clinique and I had minimal results for a very short time. I was ready to make a dermatologist appt but had to wait for deductible to start over. In the mean time I read reviews on Proactiv and Acne Free. I decided to go with Acne Free because it's easy to buy and I could pick it up that day rather than wait for the mail. I am so happy with AcneFree. I saw results almost immediately, and my skin has not looked this good in over 1 year. I saved myself an expensive trip to the dermatologist. I'm no longer embarassed to go places or sit in meetings. Thanks!

Pros:

Cleared my face, stopped breakouts, and inexpensive.

Cons:

The only bad think i could think about is the mild smell of benzol peroxide.

Worked wonders for me. Even better than the prescriptions my doctor gave me.

So far...amazing
I have experienced minor to moderate breakouts since I was 13. Now at 24, I recently experienced what I like to refer to as a heat/sweat/humidity breakout. I work outside in the summer and my already very oily skin can't handle a lot of extra sweat & humidity. My breakout was mostly tiny little bumps that just made my face look and feel dirty, but they weren't actually pimples. I was also had a couple cysts and whiteheads appear. I started using acnefree twice daily and by the end of the second day I noticed my whiteheads and little bumps starting to clear up. I won't claim that my breakout simply disappeared, but now one week into acne free it is continuing to clear up and my skins texture is so much nicer. I use all three products at night, and the cleanser and step 3 (just for spot treatment) in the morning. The second and third day I used the system my face did feel a little dry and tight, but I quickly adjusted to the benzoyl peroxide and my face feels great now. Also take into consideration that I have very oily skin...if you have dry skin this will probably be more harsh for you. All in all, one week in I am very, very happy with this product

Pros:

Affordable, available at local pharmacies, and its effective.

Cons:

Dries the skin

I have bad acne all along my jaw line. I have tried lots of other benzoyl peroxide products (even prescription) and this products works better than all the others I have tried. This product actually started clearing my skin within the first week. I still have a few spots, but my acne has improved very much with this product. I highly recommend this product if you need something to keep your acne at bay. However, this product is not a cure, you must use it everyday in order to keep your skin clear.

Pros:

works great
has several different types (normal, sensitive, sport and sever)
cheap compared to other products like proactive, and murad where you have to pay shiping etc
Face wash last a long while if you use the right amount.

Cons:

can get pricey if you buy all the other stuff they offer (scar eraser, spot treatment etc)
can dry out skin if not careful.
wish the tonner bottle was bigger

I got this about 3 weeks ago (The sever version) and it has worked great on my oily skin. I've tried proactive, several different doctor prescirbed treatments even birthcontrol to handel my skin but so far this had dont the best for my face. The tonner doesn't agrivate my skin and the lotion is light so i don't get all shiney after putting it on. I work in fast food so my forhead breaks out from having to wear my hat to work. Within a week of using this my forhead is pretty much clean as well as my chin. I still get a few zits here and there but I can deal with that (I never planned on it giving me super model skin or anything) The sever kit works great highly recommended to anyone with oily skin with stuborn acne :3 word of caution: IF you get the added products that aren't sold in the kit do one in the morning and one at night or every other night (ex: spot treatment at night and the scar eraser in the morning) as not to dry out your skin! (i have oily skin so i mean this!!!! if you don't have oily skin and you don't do thid you will fry your skin!)
