Pros:

Clears up MOST acne- for me. clean feeling

Cons:

Not all acne gone, and after that benzol peroxide lotion (step 3) my skin was so irritated and tight I had to always use cetaphil in order to have some moisture on my face!

AcneFree worked well for me, but didn't clear up ALL of my severe acne that I had- I still tended to break out, but it got rid of some of my bad acne I had

Pros:

Affordable and easy to get.
The cleanser made my face feel softer.

Cons:

Uneffective after a couple weeks of even consistent usage.
Made me break out more before it cleared some of my acne. And only a few blemishes cleared up.

It says your face clears up in 3 days. Not for me. I tried to be patient and continued using it for about a month. Now, I don't use it as often. I only use the cleanser every other night and I get the same results of using the cleanser every other night vs using the cleanser, toner, AND lotion twice every day.

Pros:

-Prevents light pimples
-Clears up skin within first few days of use
-Keeps skin relatively clear from light to moderate acne
-I have oily skin, and Acne Free really keeps oil away

Cons:

-Does not prevent cystic acne
-I have used the "Severe" as well as the regular/white bottle systems. I have oily skin and the Severe dried out my skin and left me with flaky, scaly skin.
-The Severe system is very grainy and makeup is difficult to apply if you don't rub off the excess residue.
-The Normal skin routine (white bottles) was more gentle on my face, however the BP cream is still slightly grainy.

- My skin has become immune to the Acne Free system over the course of a couple months and now, after at least 4 months of use (I've tried to stay hopeful and stick with it), it still keeps light acne away, but does not help with black heads or cysts and I do occasionally get small zits, mostly from picking, though. - Skin is dry all the time! - BP is very grainy ***I took advice from the Acne.org Regimen (let your face dry for 10 minutes before applying BP and be very gentle!) and it has improved my skin over the last two weeks! I also started using an old Murad glycolic acid spot treatment and it works wonders when used with BP!

Pros:

clears acne, sort of. i used the cleanser and the lotion for a while and it cleared my skin up a bit.

Cons:

leaves skin extra dry, and smells like pool cleaner. lotion ever leaves skin dry?! weird.

acne free would be good for some one with light acne, useless to those with cystic acne or moderate acne. good face wash though but not that great of an acne wash. if you know what i mean,

Pros:

Looks likes it should work and the wash is nice.

Cons:

It seems to me that I got the AcneFree Sensitive pack. Well that came with a moisturizer, wash, and a spot treatment. The wash works a little but the rest is trash.

No.. No.No.

Pros:

Works while you use it

Cons:

If you stop, it gets worse.
you have to stay inside a lot to avoid sunlight.
the benzyl peroxide makes your skin dry and itchy if you use too much..which is easy to do.

If you use it on a day to day basis and follow the instructions..it makes your skin smoother and healthier..but if you use too much of the 2nd step, then you're skin will get very dry and itchy. Also, if you stop using it it makes your acne worse..I used this for around 6 months and it made me feel a lot better about my acne, but after I stopped using it my acne became twice as bad then before I used Acnefree, and now I have horrible scars from the acne that came after stopping the use of this product. Also, it really makes your skin smoother, but it does not get rid of your acne..it slows it down significantly, but you will still have pimples.

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.

Cons:

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:

none for me

Cons:

made my face leathery, dry, scaly, broke me out like crazy

I definitely did not see the promised results in 1-3 days, as advertised on the box. I expected it to dry my face out, but not to the extent that it did. Honestly, I'm not going to stick with a product that made my face so flaky and scaly that I couldn't tell what was a whitehead and what was dead skin. I broke out, getting five or six new zits EVERY DAY! My usually controllable zits turned into monster cysts that took another week after I stopped using this product to start to disappear. No matter what moisturizer I used my skin still itched and burned. After eight days of this torture I switched to just cetaphil cleaser and aveeno moisturizer, and face face is no clearer than it was before acnefree, but I feel so much better in my skin.
