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

Cons:

completely dried out my skin to the point i had blotchy red marks all over my cheeks, the driest part of my face. and constant stinging of the face with out even touching.

start with small applications to let ur skin adust to the amounts of acid, if skin is sensitive.

Pros:

I got my money back, easy return

Cons:

I reacted TERRIBLY to this

I used this last night and my face tarted itching right away. I woke up this morning with a HUGE swollen eyelid, I had to ice it to make it go down. My whole face was red, itchy, and irritated.

Pros:

it made my skin less red and the acne less noticeable, albeit the acne never actually going away.

Cons:

the acne stayed, if not more appeared, and it made my skin dry and blotchy, staying even when i used the dramatically different moisturizing gel as others have recommended on here.

i suppose its only my skin, because some positive reviews are on here, stating the miracle like results from this product. overall, it doesn't seem to be working for me, but i will continue use and if my skin quality seems to change, i will post another review stating so. i suggest the trial kit first, and stick with it for the entire month, because it does take a while to start working.

Pros:

I only use the Liquid facial soap. It's not oily or greasy, prevent dryness.

Cons:

The whole system DOESNT work.

I have mild acne on my T-Zone. Im 16 and I have had Acne, for about 2 or 3 years. I get painful cysts on my chin usually. I've tried everything from regular soap to presciptions. I don't there is really one whole product like out there that will clear up anyones face. I think I have finally found my cure. I wash my face morning and night with Cetaphil Cleansing Bar of soap, in the mornings i use my prescription of BenzaClin, then Clinique liquid facial soap extra-mild - it's not greasy and helps with the dryness left from the BenzaClin (which works WONDERS)... At night i was with the Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing Bar of soap again the i use DERMAdoctor Ain't misbehavin' intensive medicated blackhead treatment (Sephora $50) This shrinks my pores and makes my face produce less oils and dirt which cause acne. So far this has decresed my acne by about 90%. Its not as expensive as it sounds eather, talk to your doctor about BenzaClin..

Cons:

DRIES OUT FACE, MADE ME BRAKE OUT MORE ..

THIS PRODUCT MADE ME BREAKOUT EVEN MORE.. WORST PRODUCT EVER! IT MADE GET ABOUT 2 NEW PIMPLES A DAY AND MADE MY FACE SUPER DRY AT THE SAME TIME! WORST PRODUCT EVER!! DO NOT SPEND THAT MUCH MONEY ON A PRODUCT THATS NOT WORTH IT! NOW I USE CLEAN AND CLEAR AND MY FACE LOOKS MUCH BETTER, BUT I STILL HAVE THE HIDIOUS SCARS FROM THE GREAT PIMPLES THAT CLINIQUE ACNE SOLUTIONS CAUSED ME!

Pros:

- Noticeably less pimples in the first few days of usage
- Pores on my nose are almost completely invisible

Cons:

- Cleansing Foam dries your skin. If you don't use any lotion, you'll need to, and even when you do it's still dry.
- Everything except the cleansing foam burns and it feels like your face is on fire in addition to the dryness.
- E-X-P-E-N-S-I-

Not worth it. I'm only 15, so I haven't tried that many things, although this by far did work the best for what I've tried (Clearasil does not work with a crap), however, within five days of use, I quit because it simply dried my skin out too much. There were less bumps, however, but the redness did not fade. By the end of the day, my face was cracked all over and looked a mess, and I had to use tweezers to peel most of it off. Each day! I wouldn't recommend this to anybody unless they are absolutely desperate and have no other options.

Pros:

Great product, works well

Cons:

smell

It's a great product, it combines the active ingredients of both Proactiv and Tri-Clear, it leaves your skin dry and reduces shine. The only thing is that it smells of witch hazel, which i think smells like BBQ sauce or a dog's rawhide bone YUCK!!

Pros:

It helped clear my skin, but ive been using it for three weeks.. and hasnt totally cleared it.

Cons:

No help with scarring, dried my skin out to the point that it was flaking, brings out the pimples at first. Astringent stings.

You have to be consistent with any product you use.. there is going to be pros and cons with every product despite what reviews say.. may it be fragrance or the stinging of the product.. There is also emergency benzoyl cream. its 17.50 canadian i highly recommend you purchase this product.. it works very well.
