Pros:

Made skin feel nice and smooth, didn't dry face out too much

Cons:

Stopped working after about a month of use. Acne came back and just kept getting worse.

I was very excited with this system after it cleared my face up after a couple weeks of use, but within a few weeks all my acne was back. I kept using this system for a few months and it never improved my acne.

Pros:

skin feels clean and smooth

Cons:

increased breakouts
redness
drying
flaking
burning
step 3 clashes with wearing makeup

I bought this product because I am tired of acne breakouts. I have tried Proactiv in the past, and that did work but I couldn't afford that product anymore. I purchased this product about 10 days ago and have been doing the full regimen once a day for about 10 days. My face has never been more broken out than this! I keep at it every morning faithfully hoping that the new breakouts are just the result of this product "getting rid" of the hidden bacteria/ acne in my face--thank goodness I don't use it twice a day as it recommends. My skin is dry and around my eyes (as crazy as this may sound) seems so dry that I feel as if it is aging me! Maybe I am using to too close to my eyes.... The repair lotion leaves a thick residue that shows up through your foundation, and the nighttime cream is thickand hard to spread evenly over your face. I will keep at it for another few days, but if no clearing by then, I can't promise much more. I was expecting clearer skin--not worse skin.

Pros:

Makes your skin really soft

Cons:

Toner breaks you out more, and dosent really clear acne at all

I bought this thinking it would clear my acne and at first it did but after a while it stopped working. the toner is terrible and only breaks you out more. the only thing i like about this is the lotion really makes your skin really smooth. iv been using it about 8 months and my acne is worse then when i started

Pros:

Cleared up most of my acne first time i used
Can be found easily in drugstores
Affordable
Work faster than most other drugstore brands
Toner is very soothing and refreshing

Cons:

Irritated sensitive skin (which creat redness)
Smell reallllllly bad and strong
Cleanser doesn't really remove make-up well
Treatment lotion dry out skin very badly

-The treatment lotion: doesnt help fast enough for getting rid of pimples. And when apply to extra sensitive area ( under the neck, hair line area...ect) doesnt help with acne at all ,and make those sensitive area itchy,swollen, irritated, and red :( -Toner: nice, remove excess oil well, refreshing,soothing, smell good,hydrate skin. -Cleanse: creamy, has little tiny things that you would find in a exfoliator or acne scrub, irritate skin, doesnt remove make up well so you would have to use a make up remover (which take time and irritate you acne prone skin) , smell sooooo bad , not foamy First time i used it cleared up my pimples within 2 months or less. Then i stopped once i almost finish the bottle cause i hate the irriation and the smell and i though it was too tough on my sensitive 16 y/o skin . So acne came back gradually but i was using neutrogena acne stress cleanser,toner and lot of different acne treatment gel and cream....so my acne during that time was light but still bothered me a lot ..thats why i came back to this and it CLEARED UP my acne but STILL IRRITATE my skin SO....i stop using and left half the bottle i switch to acne.org cleanser,moisturizer and treatment..it kept my skin clear and doesnt irriate it :) (except acne.org treatment make my skin red IF i put too much,but thats my fault i dont follow direction) now i dont have acne but 1 or 2 tiny little skin color bumps on my cheek so ya ,,,,you should try acne.org products that was the best decision i ever made :) GOOD LUCK :)

Pros:

Made my skin feel more clean.

Cons:

I didn't notice too much of a deduction of zits on my face. Though to be honest I didn't use the third step of this product (which is a moisturizer).

If you use this product make sure you use all the steps and use it twice a day.

Pros:

Step 4 smells nice and the bottles are eye catching.

Cons:

The steps were unclear, the smell. I had a very hard time looking for the directions on each bottle. My skin was and still is irritated and itchy.

This product isn't for me. I've used this for about 3 weeks. Nothing good happened. My acne has actually gotten worse and my skin is beginning to peel.

Pros:

for little

Cons:

rash

I used this product for quite some time, and out of nowhere I started to break out with this rash on my face. At first I had no idea what it was from. So I started to monitor everything that could of done this. From washing all my sheets to what I was eating. later the rash was gone and finally decided to put this product back on my face, and the very next morning (4 hours later) my face started to Irritate, and notice some red coming out. Now I know for a fact it wasnt anything I came across, it was this product i was putting on my face. DONT USE. . . . this product's price might be a lower cost than proactiv, but poractiv is more consistant. and doesnt have the Symptoms of irratating your skin.

Pros:

easy to use

Cons:

almost everything, first allergic reaction EVER !!

i used it for two days/ twice a day, the second day it looked like i had a blotchy sunburn all over my face, it was already drying my skin out bad, i woke up the third day with not only badly swollen eyes but my whole face was swollen, red, bumpy, YUCK, i cried all morning, and to think- i used the severe acne free a year or so ago and found it too drying so i discontinued, so this time around i figured i would get the acne free specifically made for sensitive skin and HOLY COW !!!! i have never had an (what i call) allergic reaction before, this was severe, i read every last word on the box hoping for a some type of money back guarentee and of course there was nothing, the only think i am thankful for was that it only cost $17.99, so it is now the third night and i still have all the symptoms, i see that others have experienced this as well so does anyone know how long this will last for?

Pros:

None really

Cons:

Very drying, it burns WAY bad, leaves you itchy and it smells really weird

I've been using it for four or five days now and I don't like it at all. The worse part is there "pH balancing" lotion with Salicylic Acid, it burns my face really bad and leaves my face looking like I have a bad sun burn for up to an hour after I've put it on. The results, I have more acne then I did before I bought it. I would not recommend this to anyone.

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!
