Pros:

Works In a Couple Days
No Burning
Cheaper Then Most Other Products

Cons:

Dry Skin, so use a moisturizer, works out great.

I used Acne Free for almost a year and it cleared my skin up in just a couple weeks. The first year I never used a moisturizer. I rather would have a little dry skin then acne everywhere. I stopped using it figuring my acne was gone forever, boy was I wrong! Came back worse then ever. Finally after a month went out and got it again. Now after on 3 days there is a huge difference. I now use a moisturizer and it gets rid of the dry skin.

Pros:

Clears skin fairly fast and keeps on working.(I've used it for years and it has not stopped working after 3 months like Proactiv did.)

It is literally the ONLY thing that has for the most part cleared my acne. (I have had moderate that progressed to severe acne since I was 14, and am now in my 20's.)

The Benzoyl Peroxide Lotion and Retinol last for quite some time.

Cons:

It is a shame they don't sell the Cleanser and Toner separately as those are the items I run out of first, and I end up having to buy the whole package when I only need two things immediately.

After using perscription creams (Differin, Retin A, Benzaclin, Clindamycin, etc.), oral acne medications such as Doxycycline, every cleanser, toner and acne fighting cream brand from Neutrogena to Noxema...this is the ONLY thing that has worked. My acne will probably never completely go away as I have been dealing with it for 7 years and it has never been completely cured for any extended amount of time, but this product keeps it at bay. And every side product they have come out with from the foaming cleanser to the 1 hour pimple patches has lived up to its' promises.

Pros:

Works AMAZINGLY. Noticably cleared my skin in one day.
Inexpensive for a complete kit.
Easy to use

Cons:

Dries out your skin a bit...if you use the moisturizer you should be fine though.

Being a teenager, I've had bad acne before. I get blackheads and oil pockets, which NEVER seem to go away, and to top it off, I pick at them, which leaves scars. We went to Target and as soon as I got home I tried it out. The next morning, my skin was smooth and some of my forehead acne had been removed completely. I kept using it and ALL my acne, and scars, are gone! This product is amazing...highly recommend it.

Pros:

It really does an amazing job of getting rid of acne! I have been using this product for seven weeks and I have literally have not have one zit. After about nine days of using Acne Free, my face was smooth and pimple free! I really love the renewing toner, it really does a fantastic job of removing surface oil and it is not at all drying!

Cons:

Every thing was perfect for me but the repair lotion, it smelled strange and it dried out my cheeks a bit at the start. Now I use it every other day and it serves it purpose without drying my skin.

I love acne free and it did the job. Just be sure to use it every day and don't mix it with other acne systems.

Pros:

Price
Smooth skin

Cons:

Dry skin patches---use a SPF moisturizer will counteract that problem

I have used for 7 days and this product is great and I have mild to moderate acne. I saw dramatic results in three days! I'm a former user of ProActiv, which is more expensive and harsher on the skin. Acne Free works and makes your skin smoother than Proactiv. Definetly, use a SPF moisturizer after the 3 step process and you will not experience dry skin.

Pros:

Clears different kids of acne
Can buy it locally
It works!

Cons:

Can cause irritation if not used properly
Doesn't come with moisturizer.

My skin is very sensitive so I was worried about using this product. At first, my skin got irritated in the usually areas so I stopped using it twice a day - I also tried avoiding those sensitive areas (around my mouth, anywhere near my eyes). No more irritation and my acne is disappearing fast! I had cysts on my cheeks and neck and small, scaly, flesh colored, rash-like, pimples all over my forehead. My forehead is almost smooth now after a few weeks and the pimples on my cheek are almost all gone! I am very happy with this product. As for the moisturizer - I buy a three step kit, the last step is a repairing lotion which is not meant to moisturize. I use Aveno moisturizer for my face, but only every once and a while.

Pros:

Clears acne up.

Cons:

Dries around the mouth, but with a little moisturizer you're good to go. Need a little patience.

So basically, I used to get the occasional pimples once a while and then last year, I had no idea what happened and I just started breaking out like crazy. I first starting using Clean&Clear, St. Ives, Proactive, etc. Nothing worked. All it did was make my pimples worse and became all red and dry. Then couple months ago I started using this product. My acne is now cleared up! I used it everyday. Morning & Night time. It does get dry around the mouth area and where ever you have acne but if you put a little amount of moisturizer, it's all good to go. (:

Pros:

AcneFree wash, toner and mask are very gentle. Immediate Redness Relief. Cleared up my skin almost completely in the less than a week washing twice a day. I used nothing else besides acnefree!

Cons:

Absolutely NOTHING!

I have used EVERYTHING, i mean EVERYTHING! Proactive, stridex, clean and clear, neutrogena, dermatologist prescribed everything. NOTHING HELPED! I've had acne for seven years, ive spent thousands of dollars, literally on face stuff. It got so bad i was truant from school because my face was so embarassing. People would comment on it all the time. Ive been using this product for less than one week, and im so happy i could cry, literally. From less than a week ago i had over 40! acne spots, red inflamed, pussy, gross acne. I decided to try acne free, the regular kind to hope it would work. What can i say?... I wasnt' going to quit trying anything until i would hopefully find something that would work. IN less than one week my face has less than 4 spots left on it. Seriously, 4, when i had over fourty (not joking) in less than a week. Nothing has ever helped my face like this, and didn't make it red at all, (proactive lotion irritated my face to hell, looked like an alligator) and acnefree was perfect. I have never been happier in my life! Acnefree is truely an amzing product! I am so grateful to finally have acnefree skin and i can go without makeup!! For the first time ever and still feel beautiful! My face is glowing and i feel beautiful. I love this product! It is my LIFE SAVER! I have never felt so beautiful or grateful in my life! If this product cost 1,000 dollars, i would still buy it, honestly. Being this confident and happy with the results is completely priceless! I also had TOUGH ACNE! I mean, i had moderately severe and i just used the regular kit! Worked perfect! I AM SO HAPPY! Please try this product if your running out of hope! It may be your lifeline, just like it was mine!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU ACNEFREE!!!!!!!!!!!

Pros:

cleanser is rich and creamy; you can feel it penetrating your pores
toner is soothing and helps balance your skin and nourish it
lotion completely stops excess facial oil and balances skin for 24 hours
system uses benzoyl peroxide in cleaner and lotion
cleanser has mild exfoliating properties

Cons:

system does not effectively battle blackheads - they dry up but still require manual removal
moisturizer needs to be used with system to prevent skin irritation, dryness, and peeling which is not included with the system as is
lotion needs to be bigger size - it takes just as much lotion in one treatment as it does cleanser, but the bottle of cleanser is twice as big as the lotion bottle
weekly exfoliation is still required to help get rid of the dead skin cells from the benzoyl peroxid

This is a great system and it really works if you use a moisturizer and sunscreen with the system and exfoliate on a regular basis. The lotion is genius - it keeps my skin balanced all day long so it's never oily or dry but just right, and I live in FL where it's almost always hot and humid.
