Pros:

None

Cons:

It really doesn't work well for the cost.

I am upset that I purchased this product because I really didn't want to pay for it but the sales lady really pushed for me to get it and insisted that it works well. Well it doesn't do anything for me. Luckily I only bought the trial package.

Pros:

I didn't give it a one because it didn't burn my face off.

Cons:

It made my face really oily and weird feeling, I broke out more than usual with lots of little bumps all over my face and some big cystic acne that I never get. I used this product for about a month.

Didn't work for me, neither did Proactive.

Pros:

It wasn't over drying like most other acne systems.

Cons:

During the first couple weeks I noticed my skin to become softer and the acne started to fade, but now my skin has gone back to its oily acne prone self.

The only product that is actually worth buying is the skin perfecting lotion and thats about it. The bottom line is find another system to use.

Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

Everything!

This is the worst product I have ever used, and I wish I had read some of these reviews before buying it. I also, like many of you, experienced tiny red bumps all over my face. It is burning and itching with red blotchy spots. I usually have oily skin and now it's extremely dry and itchy. I had to buy Eucerin sensitive skin/rosacea lotion this morning to help calm my skin. This is the worst product I've ever used, and I only used it for 2 days! I'm taking it back to the store tomorrow and getting my money back!

Nothing

Cons:

burns like hell and doesn't work

This stuff I really had high hopes for but the truth is that it is crap. This stuff burns your skin and makes it very dried out. They do give you a lotion with the package but it doesn't work either. Maybe there was a reason that this product didn't have any spokespeople, BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK.. I am going to try proactiv and totally give up on this crap. Don't buy this worthless product.

Cons:

This has ruined my life.

Please do not use this product. I beg of you, I am 15 years old, and I used this product in hopes of clearing up my acne. I used a very small amount trying not to overdo it and dry my skin or cause irritation. Unfortenately, I developed large cysts (which is something I never had before) and I also developed acne in places I have never had before either. I now have to see a dermatologist, but the scarring is so bad, it won't clear up nor can it be taken care of by chemical peels, dermabrasion or any treatments of that sort. I really regret using this product. It's not worth the money nor destroying your face. It's best to leave it alone. Go see a dermatologist before buying any acne treatment.
