Pros:

None.

Cons:

Caused rash and swelling.

I used the Clinique Acne 3-Step for two days. On the morning of the third day I had a red rash on my face and neck. There was a little swelling on my cheeks and lots of leathery bumbs on my neck. I returned the products immediately and got a full return. The sales clerk told me THEN that two of the employees who had tried the product got irritated skin from it. I use Clinique makeup regularly and I've never had any problems before trying their acne line. In the past I tried their regular 3-step products, which gave me a few pimples but not a gross rash!

Pros:

cleans make up off well
got rid of some acne

yo. i cant say i love this product. i mean it is pretty good when it comes to cleaning off make up but other than that its okay. i have genetic acne so i dont think any product will work for me . my skin looks bumpy. and i guess clinique got rid of some of that bumpness but it stopped working after like a month. i dont think its worth the money it works just as well as any other drug store product

Pros:

helps my acne

Cons:

too expensive

i only bought the moisturizer because it is the only thing contains benzoyl peroxide. and i have to say it works for me even though i use very small amount. it works slowly so you have to give it time. i would definitely repurchase it since it works. one thing bad about it is the price. the moisturizer which is the only thing work for me costs $$17. too expensive and the i think it's only 2 oz. i may buy dan's treatment since i know benzoyl peroxide works for me. give it a try and take some time. oh another thing is once you use this you cannot quit it, because once you quit, you acne comes back!

Pros:

Um..None

Cons:

Expensive
Doesnt Work
Have the shake the toner before each use

After using Proactiv Extra Strength for the past 5 years I noticed that my skin was becoming immune to it and I was breaking out more and more. I decided to try Clinque's Acne Solutions because I read some reviews on the Clinque site and it sounded like it could work. I was mistaken! My face got so much worse! I had 6-10 LARGE INFLAMED pimples around my nose and mouth. Then I got all my baby acne back. My forhead was covered in tiny whiteheads. I hadnt had those in years! After using for a month I decided to go back to Proactiv and WITHIN THREE days, my skin looked noticeablely better. I will never stray from Proactiv again!

Pros:

Doesn't make my skin break out more

Cons:

Doesn't ever completely go away

This product is not consitent at all. I've been using it for a while now and it made a slight difference in the begining. This is the best product I've used so far but it still never gives me completely clear skin. I'm gonna keep trying it for another month and then I'm giving up hope..

Pros:

Purchased it from Dillards, and the rep did a skin test and explained to me how clinique was different from Proactiv and Nutrogena the two products I've used in the past. Which aided in me choosing to buy it and try it today.

Cons:

Price got me ..its a bit pricy. If you buy the sample size it was 39.00 for a month and for the full size it was $9 bucks more. If I like it, that means I would end up spending almost almost $90 bucks if I got the trail size.

Proactive didn't work well for me--made me try out and itch ( tried for 6 months). Currently using neutrogena--but its not preventing acne. So i'll be back to give updates in two weeks on how Clinique works for me. Rep at store made a follow up appointment, and told me that if it doesn't work I can return the product--so nothing to loose really.

Pros:

Good Return Policy!!

Cons:

These products did nothing that they claimed to do. My skin got really dry and irritated, aswell as my few pimples here and there have turned into zits everywhere!

I used these products for 2.5 months and have given them a fair chance to work, but they have made a big mess of my skin and I have not seen any improvement since. I am far worse then when I started! I just returned the products today for a full refund! Awful Awful Products!
