Good results

Pros:

Great product
easy to use

Cons:

Super Expensive

I have been using this 3 step system for 1 year now and to be honest, I have noticed major results but my acne isn't completely gone yet. I'm 15 years old and I have had acne for 4 years now, I need it gone and it has really lowered my self esteem and confidence but with this product it definelty helped me quite a lot. I have tried almost everything on the market, proactiv sucked btw....anyway, this is a great product and I'm sure over time it will clear up my acne or at least keep it balanced and in control :)

Love this product!

Pros:

Clears skin fast
Evens skin tone
Lasts a while

Cons:

Expensive
A little drying

I have really oily skin, and when 8th grade started I had a whole bunch of acne (particularly around my left cheek and forehead), so I tried this product and after 3 days my skin was completely clear! And also I found that it evened out my skin tone!

Pros:

Cleared up acne initially
No fragrance
technically hypoallergenic

Cons:

Too harsh for sensitive acne-prone skin
Never stopped oil production on nose
Was drying in winter

I bought this just after I got out of high school because my old products (Spectro Jel sensitive acne prone skin wash and Loreal hydrafresh oil-free gel creme) weren't perfect for sensitive combination skin. I was told by the clinique ladies that I actually had oily skin. For the first year my skin was doing better but I think my skin changed and I used it past when I needed it. I never did have 100% acne free skin and now I have scars and dry patches all over face and eyes. My skin is damaged.

Pros:

Works Fast
Shrinks Pores
Clears Skin
Softens Skin

Cons:

Extremely Drying

This product is great! I have dramatically less acne, and my skin is a lot softer. Occasionally, I skip one step in the morning if my face is too dried out, but the results are amazing. This is EXTREMELY DRYING, so I don't recommend this for people with already dry skin. I got a starter kit that came with an awesome spot treatment.

This product does what it say it will do.. Clear ur acne.. Try it use it twice daily n drink lots of water and eeat more fruits.. :) Bottom line is that it works for acne and I been suffering from severe-moderate acne for the past 7 years n i've tried everything from antibiotics, retinols, and over the counter.. Good luck on ur search friends :(

Pros:

N/A

Cons:

Totally ruined my skin. Before I used this I had about 5 pimples. When I stopped (3 days later), my whole forehead was covered in them, I had a cyst/nodule on my chin and cheek which I have NEVER had before using this. The only way I was able to get rid of the nodules was by using drawing salve to draw out the infection. It's now been 6 months since I stopped using it and I'm just now getting rid of the white bumps it left all over my cheeks.

It may work for some people, but it without a doubt made my skin worse than it's been in my life. Be careful with this.

Pros:

Worked amazing for my skin!
90% of my acne disappeared!
Made my skin just look BEAUTIFUL.
Tightened my skin.
Made my pores look small.

Cons:

The first week I used this, it made my skin feel like it was on FIRE.
Nothing for post acne marks.
A little drying.

The very first time I used this line, it made me want to cry! It stung so bad and made my face feel like it was sun burnt for an hour! After my skin got used to how strong was, it just worked amazing. I've only been using it for about a week and a half now, & more than 90% of my acne is gone. I used to have pretty severe acne too. Another bad thing about it though, is that it really drys out your skin. The first couple days, I tried using my usual moisturizer to top the moisturizer that it came with, and it didn't work so well, because it made my skin really oily. I recommend this to anyone that's okay with going through the first week of hell. (:
