Pros:

Makes my skin clear in a few days. Cheap for the price you pay. Lotion has SPF.

Cons:

Over use can ruin your skin. Lotion can really only be used in the day.

It's been a long time since I've used products with benzoyl peroxide in it so it will dry out my skin if I over use it too early. I've learned to use the product every other night and with a toner to get rid of the dry skin. My kit came with a free spot treatment so I use that when I feel a pimple developing and it gets rid of it quickly. On the nights I don't use the benzoyl peroxide lotion I use a toner and moisturizer to rehydrate my skin and give it a break from the drying effects of the benzoyl peroxide. I would not recommend this product for people with overly sensitive skin. Many people will make the mistake of using this product twice a day, everyday. That will only quickly dry out your skin and make your acne worse than make it better.

Pros:

It's cheap, smells good & works.

Cons:

You can't use it more than once a day if you have sensitive skin (like me)

The lotion you apply after the cleanser makes you feel like you just got botox. When you let it dry your face becomes somewhat numb and feels really weird. Apply the sph 15 sunscreen all over where you applied the lotion and it helps. It makes your face feel somewhat tight & it also makes your face kinda itchy if you have sensitive skin. BEWARE though, if you have sensitive skin do not use this more than once a day or you WILL get flaky red nasty skin!

Pros:

Affordable, not as harsh as Glytone, helps with buffing complexion, come with sunscreen and a benzoyl peroxide.

Cons:

Fragrance and extracts used in product. Dries skin out.

If you workout a lot don't use this. It dries out your skin and then when you sweat it burns. The only good thing is the sunscreen for when I go running outside. I'm back to just using Neutrogenas orange oil free salycilic wash and my face is clear again in combination with benzaclyn. I don't like fragranced products because that usually means there's some type of extract in it and extracts are usually oily and clog pores.

Pros:

improves skin texture, easy to use

Cons:

dries out skin, odd consistency

i am 13 and have been using this system for about 3 months. The box says that acne is reduced in just 2 days. Thats true, but after a couple weeks it stops working. For the first couple weeks, my skin seemed to be improving but then it just went back to how it was before. However it does improve overall skin texture and softness. It dried my skin a lot though so make sure you ALWAYS use the moisturizer.

Pros:

- Entirely Effective
- Easy to Use
- No Smell

Cons:

- Dries out the Skin

I have always had very mild acne. A few popules here and there, but nothing serious. Five months ago my acne became much more severe. My entire face began to break out. I started using this product about two moths ago. I saw small results within in a week, but two weeks ago is when I really began to see improvements. Now my skin has entirely cleared up. No pimples, and no red marks. Although I have seen numerous people claim that this product is ineffective, and it very well might be for them, but it does work very well. All in all, the minor dryness is a very small price to pay for clear skin. I have just run out and will be picking up more tomorrow.

-awakens your skin
-cheap & effective

Cons:

-dries skin out

this product is great for ME. for other people it might not work but for most it will. dont listen to those ppl that are flipping out over how it doesnt work...jst because it doesnt work on their skin doesnt mean it wont work on yours. buy it and try it if you dont like it just find something new. no big deal.
