Pros:

Cheaper than Proactive

Cons:

Burns your skin, smells horrible and causes a serious breakout!

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!! i used this product for four days and it feels like little ants are biting all over my face. I have fine bumps all over my face and my face hurts! It smells terrible. You shouldn't use anything on your face that can possibly discolor your clothing! Imagine what it does to your face! It has a strong odor. I returned it to Walmart today! DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!

Pros:

Cheap. Thats all.

Cons:

Dried my face out HORRIBLY. MAde tiny whiteheads pop up everywhere. Red skin etc. Way too harsh. IT BURNS!!!!!

i have always had mild/moderate acne. proactive worked for me for about 2 years then bam it stopped. And ever since then the onlty thing to help me is birth control.. which is VERY expensive with no health insurance. SO i have been trying lots of things (i normally use neutrogena) and i thought acne free would work, it DID NOT. I am not going to keep using it in hopes it will eventually start to work. I am going to try neutrogenas 3 step now. They are more gentle.

Pros:

Much less expensive than Proactiv.

Cons:

Let's see...I only had one or two tiny breakouts. I had used Proactiv years ago, so thought I'd try Acne Free. I woke up the next morning with a huge swollen eye, red rashing and tiny whiteheads all over my face, and horrible itching.

I'm not allergic to these chemicals. They're in Proactiv too and it never bothered me a bit. It's not worth the savings! The company has not been helpful when I've called (I only used it 2x/day for 2 days). I explained that I had gone online and read multiple reviews of symptoms just like mine, especially the swollen undereye area and they said that it isn't a common complaint. Hmmm...I guess these people are all making it up then, right? I am going to a doctor and if they don't pay the bill when it's all said and done, I'll be suing. This is horrible. I went from one or two little breakouts to a face full of rashy whiteheads!

Pros:

Seemed to work for 2 days

Cons:

I've been on this for 12days now. I have more pimples than I did before. I'm 27y/o and feel like I'm 14 again. I feel like it's causing me pimples. Does it really take this long to clear out the skin?

Thinking of quitting this. Would not recommend

Pros:

Cleared up skin for a little while. Seemed to work better than Proactiv.

Cons:

Left my skin with a strange texture. Smells bad. Overdried my skin and produced more acne eventually.

I've had friends who have raved about this product but it left me disappointed and with more acne than when I began.

Pros:

you can get it at Walmart fo $14.

Cons:

The face wash doesn't have enough granules in it to exfoliate well. The acne lotion made my face EXTREMELY greasy.

The manufactures of this product claim that it works better than Proactiv. I used Acne Free for 4 months, then decided to spend the extra money on Proactiv. Proactiv works MUCH better, smells better, and feels better than Acne Free. It takes about 2 weeks to see significant results, but much worth the wait, and money. Be sure to use a non-comedogenic, oil free moisturizer after the repairing lotion or your skin will get dry and produce more sebum (oil).

Pros:

The price was great and it seemed to help a little.

Cons:

I couldn't use it in the morning because it made my skin really oily and shiny.

I think that the product may work for people with drier skin, but my skin is normally somewhat oily and then when I used this my face looked disgusting. Just really oily and shiny, but I did notice a little acne was clearing up but I'd rather have a few more zits than my face be extremely oily.

Pros:

nothing at all!

Cons:

first couple days it was fine, no drastic change, i just thought it was descent oil-free toner and a lotion but my 5th day of using it, i got an allergic reaction! My face had red spots all over and my skin was super super dry.

please think again before using this product. all this does is make your skin really dry taking all the moisture away even the ones that you need. I ve been off acnefree for four days now and my skins are still itchy, burning, and flakeing..

Pros:

none

Cons:

made even more breakouts, itchy, doesn't work

if you want to have false hopes and make 'clear face' a reality only in your memories, go ahead, try this product.
