Pros:

It really clear up my skin for the first month...i actually saw improvement the first week i use it.But then my skin eventually got immune

Cons:

It didnt work as much as the first month i use it.it made my skin slightly dry and tight.

I would recommended this product,But only if you do not have that much of a sensitive'‚skin and that you have no allergy to Benzoyl Peroxide. i think you also must use all 3 product without subducting for somthing else or you really wont see improvement. If you see that your skin is tooooo dry then reduce the amount.i still use the wash and sometimes the lotion.i use the acne lotion for only stubborn pimples. But i notice i have to use alot of the acne lotion in order to see improvement.

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:

Actually works!
Improves skin texture!
Doesn't dry out skin (when adjusted to specific skin types)

Cons:

The face wash runs out before other items in the set.
Takes several weeks for full effect.
A tad pricey for the full set.

This product worked rather well for over-the-counter. It did take several weeks for me to see the full results, however, so I suggest persistent patience with this formula. Also, you must stick to the regiment and alter to your specific skin needs. I have a VERY oily t-zone, however, I found if I used the night cream daily it dried out my face quite noticeably. I suggest using the face wash twice daily, and the night cream as spot treatment only. Also, I prefer the consistency of Neutrogena's regular oil-free lotion sold seperately but they have essentially the same ingredients. I would say moisturizing once or twice a day after cleansing is key, even if you have oily skin like me. Also, I wish the face wash was sold seperately because it runs over faster than the less used lotion and night cream. Twenty-bucks for face was is a bit steep but this product worked very well for me and cleared my moderate acne after a month. It is my new best friend! It's great to wear less make-up!

Pros:

None

Cons:

Irritated my skin, overnight cream gave me some intense peeling and the lotion did absolutely no help.

This product did not work on my active acne at all. Total waste of money and time.

Pros:

Smell isn't bad.

Cons:

BP lotion is really drying, and tightened my skin a lot.
Didn't clear my skin up in 2 days like the packaging said.
The bottle also kept leaking out the face wash, which is a total waste or money.

I saw some improvement, but my skin didn't go next to perfect like it did when I used Proactive (over 5 years ago). One side of my face got really clear, but now has HUGE ugly zits on it. They hurt a lot. The other side took a long time to clear up, but I guess I have some hyperpigmentation so, that's going to take a long time to go away. I'm not sure if I would buy this product again. I think I'm going to go to a dermatologist first. It did work better for me than Dermalogica Anti-Bac Skin wash with Garnier face lotions. I recommend it if you have light acne, but mine was moderate.

Pros:

Moisturizer is good.
Night cream goes on smooth, not too drying.

Cons:

Concentration of medication too low.
Terrible consistency.
Terrible aroma. Does not work!

Absolute waste of money. I threw this out after using it for a month and bought the products I was using before (Clean & Clear Cleansing Scrub and CVS brand benzoyl peroxide). It ruined the beautiful complexion I had worked so hard to achieve. I broke out all over my chin, and my skin became oily and temperamental. The absolute worst part was the consistency and smell of the cleanser. It has a disgusting, congealed texture and does not exfoliate or lather easily. Leaks in the bottle and will often times slip right out of your hands. Incredibly, unnecessarily hard to clean your face with. The BP night treatment is nothing new. Get the 10% store brand for a fourth of the price of this kit - and grab an exfoliating cleanser with a higher percentage of SA, while you're at it. Save yourself the time and trouble.

Pros:

Clears up skin in the first couple of days, works great for people who dont have sensitive skin,

Cons:

burnt my face
caused swelling
clogged pores

i have very sensitive skin, i used this treatment and noticed a difference in about two days, blackheads had cleared, under the skin blemishes had gone. but after about 4 days i felt a swelling under my nose, it had clogged one of my pores and created a swelling on the right side of my nose and made it difficult to see. aswell as this areas around my mouth and lower nose started to burn. this is a good product if you don't react to benzol peroxide and if you dont have sensitive skin.
