Pros:

Works better then some of the the other products i've used. Controls acne for a little while.

Cons:

Bleaches towels or clothes easily. Over drying. Doesn't control oil very well. Over time it's like your face becomes immune to it and you begin getting the acne back again. The newer packaging makes it harder to squeeze out.

I used this product for a good two years and for about a year and half it kept the acne at back and kept my skin clear, with a few occasional zits. over time however my skin has seemed to become immune to the medication as a few months ago i began getting severe pimples on the sides of my face (where they were before i started using the product). It takes awhile for the medication to start taking effect, about a month or two. Also in starting to use this product you must build your face up to it, otherwise your skin will become red and splotchy and VERY dry. My advice would be to find a different product.

Pros:

Works

Cons:

Dries your skin
Does not get rid of it all

I used it and it was ok. I noticed that the Repair Lotion really dried out my skin so I just skip that step altogether and use a different moisturizer for my skin (that works).

Pros:

When I first used Acnefree, I broke out. But I continued to use it, and as my face got used to it, the affect started kicking in. Acnefree reduced my pimples (clears some).

Cons:

It made my face really dry and started peeling off, and then would become extremely oily to make up for it. This product doesn't really clear up the skin 100%. After 9 months of using it, I could tell how the effect was shrinking.

Don't use Acnefree if you want it your pimples to clear 100%. But it works (especially for its cheap cost). Since they have 30 days money back, you could test it out. Every face is different.

Pros:

does a very good job of making skin tone even and clear. it is a quality product. you can see that on the ingredients list.

Cons:

all my little blemishes no longer appear. instead i get deep rooted ones that hurt and swell up. never had those before, just close to the surface ones. if i have to have acne at least the small shallow zits are better then deep painful ones.

im trying to find a new product that does a nice job of evening skin tone like acne free does, but gets rid of acne all together. probs won't buy acne free again. but thats only because it doesnt work for me. it obviously varies from person to person.

Pros:

Seems to be effective to some degree. The acne has been clearing up nicely.

Cons:

The entire process of using this is fairly tedious as well as irritating to the skin. It dries it out skin quickly and may cause problems (ex. reoccurring acne).

The individual components seem to be well put together, but if you combine them, it's just terrible and hard to control/maintain. As a whole, this probably shouldn't be used as it is a terrible skin irritant. After acne has cleared up, it has a tendency to come back as you keep using it. Personally, I enjoy the lotion on it's own as it has a 3.5% benzoyl peroxide formula with a lighter facial cleanser and an additional lotion on top of it. The toner I use mostly when I have make-up on. The wash itself I use after a morning shower on the weekend with a moisturizer instead of the lotion as it contains benzoyl peroxide as well. I would recommend using your hands to liberally apply the lotion till it's white color has disappear on your skin. It's not as likely to irritate as using a cloth or cotton pad. (Just my two cents) Your mileage may vary for long term use. Good luck!

Pros:

Got the larger size and bonus step #1 at Sam's Club in the USA

Cons:

Put it on at night for the first time. Burned, tingled. Face turned BRIGHT red and you could see every place I put it on (and didn't!)
It felt AWFUL and my skin was so DRY. If I touched my face the pain was almost UNBEARABLE.

Put it on at night for the first time. Burned, tingled. Face turned BRIGHT red and you could see every place I put it on (and didn't!) It felt AWFUL and my skin was so DRY. If I touched my face the pain was almost UNBEARABLE. Slept with multiple soaked washclothes on my face in an attempt to stop the pain and swelling and get some sleep. Face was BURNING HOT to the touch. Stains EVERYTHING, smells AWFUL. My pimples are so dry they are starting to PEEL. NEVER buy this product! It is so painful and awful. I cannot go out in public for atleast 3 hours before the red starts to go down. Face still hurts to the touch!!!!

Pros:

Clear skin in just about a week, no burning or itching. No skin peeling. It worked great for me.

Cons:

You have to use it everyday or say goodbye to clear skin.

Buy this product. It is cheap and works better than proactive.

Pros:

The corrective toner makes my skin feel light and clean and so does the face cleanser.

Cons:

The repair lotion makes my skin oily throughout the day, though naturally I have oily skin. I get a couple pimples here and there and the blackheads are slightly visible. But the product doesn't seem to be getting rid of any of that.

I've been using this product for about a month and I'm still getting breakouts. I have yet to see any results but maybe being patient may work. So far though, nothing about this product has cleared my skin. And honestly, the retinol renewal complex is pointless.

Pros:

I noticed a difference after one day! It is totally affordable. No terrible smell. Easy to use.

Cons:

It does dry out my skin and make it itchy, flaky in areas. I apply an additional moisturizer to help.

It is a quality affordable product. Yes it did seem as though after the first week I had more pimples. But that is how quality acne products work. That dirt and oil is ALREADY in your skin and it HAS to come out. It is doing its job by removing that and preventing it from happening again. It works if you stick with it. My skin is so much softer and smoother I will continue to use this product.
