Pros:

Made my skin soft and smooth
Really mattified my skin
After a month or two my skin is clearing

Cons:

At first I got a few cysts on my forehead and nose which have since cleared nicely
A bit pricey

Good product - The best I've tried before. As with other products acne may worsen before it improves so my advice is to just stick with it. I did and now my skin is smooth and matte - I no longer have to powder my make-up every few hours... It did not clear up scars but they are improving naturally :D

Pros:

packaging is handy & agreeable

Cons:

due to its agressive formula, it made me break out even more!
Don't waste your money on this, buy a mild cleanser, mild tonic and a non-oily moisturizer for sensitive skin instead-for me this has worked wonders!

don't waste your money (and skin) on this!!

Pros:

The pro matte is great for oil control...thats about it

Cons:

Ive been using the neutrogena acne care system with the 3steps for about 6months. My skin had never been in as great as a state since my pre-puberty years. Im 23/m and my skin care reg also requires the love of my life: my clarisonic brush. I tried the normaderm night after being somewhat satisfied with the normaderm matte. Well after 2 (and final) nights of use, my skin got 3 large, systic pimples. I have not had these since i was in high school.

Making a last minute visit with my dermatologist to get 3 beautiful cortisone injections in those babies was no fun. My derm couldn't have put it any simpler when she said "keep the routine simple." Use product at ur own risk

Pros:

- Smells Great
- Not Greasy/Oily
- Helps reduce appearance of acne scars
- Less breakouts after using it

Cons:

- Started to get blackheads
- Cleanser gel doesn't foam/cleanse well
- Quite pricey to buy the whole product line
- Takes time to see results

*Have to use the whole product line. At first, I only used the toner and cream and didn't get much results. After getting the cleansing gel, exfoliator, day and night cream, I saw results. Really reduced the appearance of my acne scars and had few breakouts. I only get a few sometimes when I skip my routine a day/two.

Pros:

Evens out skin blotchiness over time. Exfoliates (with exfoliating cleanser). Keeps me relatively pimple free. Smells great. Lower amount of salicylic acid (0.5% rather than 2%) is gentler and as effective. Claims to be based with mineral water.

Cons:

Expensive. Can be drying at first. Can cause a reaction in some (my boyfriends skin turns bright red after using this).

I've been using Vichy Exfoliating Daily Cleanser for about two years. I have now using it along with prescription Differin gel for about 6 months and my skin has never looked clearer. I tried everything before, and this combination works better than any benzoyl peroxide system that I've used before. My skin does occasionally get dry and flakey, but this is probably from the Differin, as I used the Vichy before without the dryness. I moisturize with Neutrogena Visibly Even Daily Moisterizer, and like I said, for the first time in my adult life (I'm 27) I finally have clear skin.

Pros:

It smells nice, and that's all for now...

Cons:

The first time i used it, i didn't use it religiously, i got the normaderm wash, scrub, and day/night creme but i found my make up did not go on well after using the creme, so i substituted my marcelle moisture creme. and my skin started to breakOUT

Its suppose to be a good product, so i guess I will use it, religiously. And see if the GREAT effects come in soon..oh and I apply the norma derm stick before bed..to dry up any pimples and/or wide open pores.

Pros:

Im using it all the cleanser to toner to day/night cream for about 6 months now.. I do get less pimples but the scars are still there.. my faces feels soft and fresh...

Cons:

After 6 months of using it scars are still there..

do notice that the other cheek is soo much better scar free than the other cheek... I will still keep using it. i think i should just be patient and hopefully I will have great clear skin.

Pros:

Great texture and effectiveness. Works great on men's skin. Cleanser is gentle but effective. Day cream moisturizes dry patches, while absorbing excess oil from oily patches. Great for combination skin. Night cream is very effective.

Cons:

Vichy is not the most affordable line of cosmetics, but then again it's not the most expensive either. My skin does tend to break out if I stop using it for a week or more.

I have been using the day cream, cleanser and make-up stick for about a year now. I recently added the night cream, and now, every time I cleanse, I spray my face with Vichy Thermal Spa Water. Been doing that for a week now and my skin looks the best it has since puberty. I think the key to this Vichy system is to use the entire system. Go get yourself the normaderm cleanser, day cream, night cream, and anti-imperfection make up stick and thermal spa water. The total effect is greater than the sum of the parts. Also, I highly recommend (for guys) Real Shaving Co.'s Daily Maintenance Exfoliating Scrub. It is coarse enough for men with combination skin, but soothing enough to use everyday. AND>>> it works great with the rest of the NormaDerm system.

Pros:

Has a nice smell.
The day moistorizer is nice (felling).

Cons:

Didn't help me at all... At some point I think it made me brake up even more :|

It was the only acne cleanser I used in my whole life... The smell was good and it felt nice on the skin. I broke up a lot with the gel so I can't recommand it. Although it kind helped with red spots...
