Pros:

Easy to apply

Cons:

Did not help acne
Irritated skin
burned

I couldn't afford proactiv anymore and I was basically forced to switch to acnefree. I thought that acnefree was just the cheap version of proactiv and would work the same way, it did work for a couple months but after a while, my pimples came back and it became pretty bad especially around the forehead area. So I'm very angry with this produc

Pros:

Reduced acne
Cheap

Cons:

Dried skin
Didn't clear completely

While this stuff worked better than most products it still didn't work great. If you have mild acne or possibly moderate it might work but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Pros:

- cleared forehead acne
-made skin soft and smooth
-cheap and close replacement for proactive

Cons:

-did not help me with scarring
-very chemical smell

Regular Strength- Product is very easy to use and work right away. It started to clear my cystic acne but left scars. My skin is smooth but I still have a very large red area of scarring around my cheeks. I thought that using the regular strenght would be better but it simply wasn't strong enough. Severe Strength- Very different and much more concitrated. It says that it helps with scarring but it went on greasy and and had little to no effect.

Pros:

it helped some bad acne I had in the beginning. it wasn't too expensive.

Cons:

it made my skin very dry, irritated and red. It didn't really prevent any acne, but actually made it worse.

Don't use this product if your skin is sensitive. The toner burned like hell and the cream had too much BP in it, therefore causing my irritation. The cleanser made my skin dry. It may help people with less sensitive skin though, as it worked wonderfully for my friend.

Pros:

Very close replacement to Proactiv, but cheaper and available in drugstores.

Cons:

Unable to buy each step individually (except I think for the cleanser.
Scrubbing beads were different in the first step.
I had the same problem wtih this product as I did with Proactiv - seemed to actually make my acne worse due to overdrying, plus the aggravation of eczema on my hands from handling the product.

If proactiv works for you, give this a try, otherwise don't bother.

Pros:

Did not dry my skin out

Cons:

Did not work
Made blemish even redder
Does not help hormonal acne

I think I have hormonal acne and this did nothing for it. It was a fine face wash but did not clear up my skin, in fact it seemed to make it worse.

Pros:

Cleared my skin very well within the first two weeks of use.

Cons:

Dries skin out, must use regularly as directed to keep skin clear, doesn't have same effects for long.

I used this product regularly for 5 months and was pleased with the results more or less. It did not clear my skin as well as it did during the fist two weeks of use, but is more effective with regular use. However, After the 5 months, the skin around my eyes got so DRY, PEELING, RED, and PUFFY, even while using less than directed and using the moisturizer. I had to discontinue use and wait for my eyes to return to normal, which took two weeks!! I purchased the sensitive skin package, although my skin is normally not sensitive to be on the safe side and still had these results. NOT worth it.

Pros:

Cleared up most of my acne

Cons:

it's Very drying and didn't work as well after the first two weeks

If you want a product that's only good for two weeks then go ahead and try this. Other than that I would not recomend this product
