Pros:

Um.. Before I've figured that I've been using it wrong, my forhead,chin and nose had cleared up. But I got to say my nose is a little clear not that much... But I'm going to use it well now!

Cons:

Before I've figured that I've been using it wrong.my cheeks has gone worse

Well I've been using it wrong because my mom trough away the instructions and today I've figured that in the mornings its cleanser and spf 15 and before bed: cleancer and lotion. So from now on I'm going to use it well!! and it about to days I'll be writing again. It smells OK. Its easy to use! It feelss a little better but I/m going to use it the right way and maybe It'll feel AWSOME!

Pros:

i have been using it for a month now...my acne has certainly reduced.

Cons:

but my concern is that i ve noticed that whereever my skin has contact after the application of the acne control lotion or the cleanser,it had colored marks(light orangish)..i have noticed it on my sheets and my face towel.

so if this is the effect on fabric...what is the long term harm it might be causing to my skin..i dunno what to do about it...

Pros:

it smells nice

Cons:

everything else

I used Proactiv as a teen which cleared my face, smelled great, and made my skin look great. I am now in my twenties and pregnant, which has caused that acne to come back. I used this product because it advertised to work faster than Proactiv, and my face was in such discomfort I went ahead and tried it so I wouldn't have to wait for the Proactiv to be shipped. Well, I have now ordered Proactiv and will wait as long as it takes because this stuff dried my face so horribly I was in straight agony. It caused burns all over my face which felt like a horrible sunburn. My face was bright red and peeling. On top of that, it made my breakouts worse -- pimples were popping up underneath ones that were not healing -- very painful. DO NOT buy this product if you have normal skin like mine, or dry skin. I hear it works ok if you have oily skin, but you will definitely need a stronger moisturizer than the one it comes with.

Pros:

Improves skin texture and reduces acne.

Cons:

You have to constantly use it or you'll break out even worse. It's also harsh to the skin; the moisturizer doesn't seem to be strong enough.

It's a lot better than Proactiv, but you have to stay on the regimen. It cleared up my skin!!

Pros:

Works fast!, Not expensive

Cons:

Makes skin really dry

I have had breakouts since I was about 14... Im almost 24 now and I have never been able to find anything that really works for my skin. I did the differin gel (burned my face) Tetracycline (stopped working after 2 years) Proactiv (made my face worse) and many many more dead ends. I bought this product because of some of the reviews I read on this site. I was a little nervous because I have pretty sensitive skin. I have used it for 2 1/2 weeks and have NOT had ONE breakout. The only downfall is that my cheeks and chin are VERY dry and a little bumpy (not noticable to other people only to me when I touch my own face) Personally I'll trade zits for a little dryness. Im very happy with this product, and I'm crossing my fingers my face will begin to get used to the product drying out my skin, but if not I just carry around the moisturizing lotion and put it on alot. I'D RATHER HAVE DRY SKIN THAN BREAKOUTS! :)

Pros:

Smells nice, and easy to put on.

Cons:

RASHES on my cheeks, irritating, and dries our your skin which results in flakes.

It itches, and it dries out your acne and if you do a simple thing as blushing it will make your face heated making the rash worse. Make sure you have no emotions putting this on! I don't know about the results after a few weeks but I wouldn't want to go through that again.
