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.

Pros:

I was walked through the best system for me through the counter attendant, it turned out to be very expensive. It began to clear my skin up after about two weeks. My skin was a little dried up, but the zits went down to virtually nothing.

Cons:

Very expensive and the soap bar is very impractical for travel. It has done nothing for the scars, so unfortunately my skin doesn't appear clear as such.

Expensive but relatively quick results. Scarring still a problem but improved the overall look.

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!

Pros:

Has a lot of natural ingredients. No perfumes.

Cons:

Quite pricey and the ladies at the Clinique counter will try to get you to buy as much as possible.

I've heard that Clinique's products are harsher than other products because they are targeted for a younger demographic. I use the antibacterial soap (lather for thirty seconds to kill germs) and it is great for the warmer months but too drying into the winter. I skip all of their step two's (clarifying lotions) because they all contain alcohol which makes my skin worse. Their acne body spray, nighttime acne gel and post-blemish formula are great (none of which I use every single day). Remember: not all acne products will work the same for everyone.

Pros:

gets your skin feeling really clean

Cons:

its quite pricey

Ive been using the antibacterial soap for over a year now (from the Anti Blemish Solutions) adn whil I doo feel lovely and clean after using it, it hasnt ever cleared me. I find the Spot Treatment Gel and Night treatment Gel good for clearing up spots. And non of it has ever been harsh on my skin.

Pros:

Soft Skin, Fragrance Free

Cons:

Pricey, Never fully does the job

Clinique only seems to work 50% of the time for me. Some mornings I wake up and my skin is glowing, and other times, I wake up with new clusters of large painful white heads. My roomate has used Clinique religiously for years, and her skin is gorgeous. I've recently quit smoking, started eating healthier and working out. So it's possible my skin is detoxifying itself. Bottom line is, Clinique is ok, but I'm still searching for something better.

Pros:

Practically odarless...

Cons:

Not best treatment for the scar-prone people

This product started to make me scarr, so I had no choice but to promptly discontinue usage. Their anti-bacterial soap is a god send, though!
