Pros:

To be honest the only pro was getting my shipment pretty fast

Cons:

The portions are horrible, the smell is annoying, the cleanser feels uncomfortable to place on your face.

I bought my product back in 2001 and I used it for months to almost a year. Trust me washing "religiously" and being "patient" has nothing to do with this product working or not. To be frank this product doesn't work. I broke out worse. Now I went from Moderate acne to Severe instantly using this product and still am struggling with it.

Pros:

Works really well. It is not harsh at all. Unscented.

Cons:

Expensive. And you have to wait for it to ship. YOu have to join their club (they ship it every month) but it takes me more than a month to go through all the product. So I join, get my product, then cancel my membership. Then re-join later.

Works really well. It is not harsh at all. Unscented.

Pros:

The toner kind of stings when you put it on (I sort of like that because it makes me think it's working)----The bottles are all different so when I have my glasses off I know which is which.

Cons:

The gritty stuff in the cleanser feels out of place and I didn't feel like it was cleaning my skin deep down--the toner has a very harsh smell---the lotion makes your face feel very greasy and it's like it doesn't soak in right away.

I hated the stuff!! I used it for about 2 years and when I started I had very light acne (I think I was about 12 becuase my mom uses the stuff and thought I did too). I NEVER had anywhere near clear skin!!! Even when you do use it religiously, you are still never clear (my mom's been using it religiously for about 6 years and still has acne). I tried using it twice a day and it would dry out my skin soo bad I would be peeling! And since I didn't use twice a day i would get horrible breakouts! Damned if you, Damned if you don't!

Pros:

Smells good

Cons:

Expensive, never fully cleared my skin, pressed you into making automatic shipping.

It never totally worked for me. I was clearer but never blemish free. I tried it consistently for about 6 months and after not seeing much improvement gave up on it.
