Pros:

Nice clean after feeling.

Cons:

Made the acne worse.

I tried this product because I saw it on an ad in a magazine and was interested. It worked the first few days I used it, but afterwards it started to irritate my skin and my break outs got worse.

Pros:

I bought it to get rid of my cystic acne. My acne has never been that bad as far as whiteheads, zits, and blackheads, but I would always get those huge, painful cysts that leave the worst scars. It's the only thing that worked on the cysts...BUT!!!!!

Cons:

it made my skin breakout w/whiteheads and zits! So now the cysts are gone and instead i have to deal w/everything else!

I will never buy this product again...it got rid of my initial acne problem, but created a new one. it does make your skin soft, but it doesn't make it any clearer:(

Pros:

This one actually works pretty well. Stay religious to it and it will work for you too(i.e. - 2 times a day). The mixture of benzoil peroxide and salycic acid works great.

Cons:

Face feels tight and dry after, but just use a small amount of moisturizer and you should be fine. Have slight spots that come up every so often, but no major breakouts.

I've tried proactive, murad and all kinds of bits and bobs of acne care. This one is the best of all of them that's why i'm writing this little message. I've never wanted to go to the dermatologist and never have; finding this product will keep me from going. Very happy with it.

Pros:

It leaves my skin feeling awesome...I love how smooth it is. I love Clinique products due to the allergy testing and fragrance free qualities.

Cons:

Initial flare up...but that happens with any skin care switch.

As long as you use the products twice a day and follow with an eye cream (Clinique All About Eyes) and a booster moisturizer (Clinique Super Defense) your skin will not dry out or become irritated. Any consultant will tell you that. Plus Super Defense promotes good wrinkle prevention.

Pros:

Within just a couple of days there was a noticeable difference. Acne was clearing up quickly.

Cons:

One week later my skin felt tight and sore under my eyes. I looked like I got 20 years older with the wrinkled skin below my eyes.

I suggest you use this system twice a week..because it does work fast. I would not use it everyday either.

Cons:

Wow! It's awful. My skin used to be bad. Now it's pretty great. I'd gone on a camping trip and needed to clear a single zit that wouldn't go away. Now I have about 25 sweeping my nose chin and neck.

It created a major flare upu.

I have few acne. Occasionally I would get one here and there a month. But I really wanted clear skin and after reading much hype on Clinique's 3 Step System I went got it. I am Asian and have combination skin. After 1 night and two morning of using the 3 step system, my face immediately broke out into a rash, CLUSTERS of tiny white heads all over my face. Lots in my chin area and forehead which were the areas that has the most oil on my face. My entire face feels itchy, dry, and just irritating. I immediately returned the product. I have no idea what to do now but wait for it to clear. I'm too scared to use any other type of product while I have this outbreak. I'm just washing my face with water until it's gone. If anyone know how to clear it please post in this form, I will check back. Thank you!
