Pros:

Stops your skin from getting new pimples (mostly).
Doesn't dry out face too much.
Not expensive at all.

Cons:

Doesn't actually rid my face of the pimples, only keeps me from getting more.

I used the clear formula of AcneFree, in the tube, and have tried the 3-step AcneFree products, but they have not worked for me. The clear one may work for some people, and also the 3-step one may work for some people, but these did NOT work for me. I first used the AcneFree Severe 3-step formula for a few months, and it just made my face more oily, and I kept breaking out (the pimples weren't going away!). Then I switched to the "new clear formula", and have been using it for about a year.. It does not get rid of my acne, but the only reason I'm still using it, is because if I go off of it, I know I will break out. Plus, it does nothing to help get rid of the oil on my skin, and my skin is really oily. I use it twice a day, once in the morning, once at night, and I'm very strict about staying on a routine with whatever products I use. My face doesn't have a problem with being too dry, so strong or harsh products are not a no-no for me. All in all, I would not recommend this product to someone with oily skin, as it won't rid your face of the oil. In fact, when I wake up, my skin is so oily that I have to get a paper towel and rub it. I don't know if it's just me, but.. I suppose this product is worth a try, since it is not costly, like many acne treatments.

Pros:

- Good value.
- Easy to find in stores.
- Clears moderate/mild acne.
- Better than proactive.

Cons:

- None really other than it only worked temporarily (personally) which is a problem I have with my acne, its stubborn.

I bought this kit for about 4 months and used it religiously. It was suggested to me by a cosmetics associate in CVS pharmacy. I gave it a shot since I didnt have much to lose. It worked well for the first couple of months, and when I gave a review on their website, they sent me a free full sized kit as a gift! Which I enjoyed. Unfortunately, my acne came back eventually since its stubborn. Overall, I was really surprised by the results. It claims it is better than proactive, and it its true. I would suggest this to people who have less stubborn mild/moderate acne. It's a good regimen

Pros:

Clears skin at first

Cons:

Stops working and doesn't completely clear you up

I use the Acne Free Severe because the regular one doesn't work as well. I have been using this product for a long time and it worked for awhile, but noticed my skin is breaking out just as much as before I started using it. I might as well not be using it. I think it does help limit some of my zits but even using this according to the directions and on a consistent basis, I still always have about 3 zits on my face. Might be good for people with light acne. I use it because I can't find anything else that works and it's now just a routine, which is pathetic that nothing out there can cure acne.

Pros:

It smelled pretty good, and left my skin with a nice, clean feeling.

Cons:

It just did not work! I broke out even MORE after I used it. It left my skin dry after a few days. It cleared me up for about a day, and then everything came back. I didn't like it!

Don't try it. It doesn't work. Even though it says its 4x stronger than Proactive it's not, and it leaves your skin dry and flaky.

Pros:

Noticable improvement in just 3 days! Inexpensive!

Cons:

Is every strong! Made my face very dry at first. Also, a burning sensation & redness occurs. I stopped using it twice a day & now use it once a day. That has helped! My skin looks healthier & even shows signs of repair already. I like to work with things before I give up completely. I may have to use it every other day sometimes, but I will not give up on yet.

So far so good!!! May not be for severe acne people.

Pros:

I have moderate acne and it reduced my breakouts in only a few days. It also reduced the redness from the breakouts.

Cons:

I had to stop using it after 3 days because my face became extremely dry, red, and irritated. It was actually painful.

I will only use this system sparingly for when my breakouts are the worst. It really does work to clear the acne, but my face is way too sensitive to continue use for more than a few days. I'm also going to try just using the spot treatment alone along with some of Neutrogena's more gentle acne cleansers.

It dried my face out and quit working after a while. It makes my skin

It works well for a while, but it makes your skin super dry and then it quits doing what its supposed to do.

Pros:

Easy to put on. Worked at first

Cons:

Killed my face. Seemed to work and then all of a sudden intense dryness. Leathery. Painful.

My face was swollen. I had been using this product prior and no results, after awhile I got frustrated and then *this* happened. My eye lid is swollen (I didn't even place it near my eye-Forehead and chin!), skin peeling. I can't put on cover up to mask the peeling, I'm not all about looks but this is ridiculous. I look like I have a skin disease. It didn't do anything for my acne either and I've been using it for awhile. I wouldn't buy it. I would try it out first. My face is not sensitive and this is a very extreme reaction-especially since I've been using it for awhile.
