Pros:

Cleanser smells fresh & clean. BP lotion is not too drying. Simple three step regimen. Non irritating.

Cons:

Day time lotion is a bit too runny and probably not ideal for oily skin. BP lotion takes a while to absorb.

I don't have too many complaints after using this product. It is not a miracle product by any means. You have to be consistent to see results and altough it probably won't clear your acne completely, it's a good starter kit to keep it under control especially if you're on antibiotics or persciption topicals. The cleanser contains good acne fighting ingredients. It doesn't dry out your skin but it might be different with someone with senstive skin. Mostly ideal for people for light acne.

Pros:

My face cleared up after a few days.

Cons:

After continuous usage after a few day my face got extremly worse. I mean HUGE and TONS of pimples. My face was better than that before I used it.

Don't waste you money!

Pros:

I just started using the product tonight and it leaves my skin dry, which for me...is good because i have oily skin....

Cons:

I havent used the day cream yet, im afraid it will make my skin even more oily from what ppl say

Dont know how it works yet, i just returned some clean & clear which made me break out over night...so far clearasil is the best, we'll see how this works

Pros:

I've only used this for ONE DAY but when I woke up,it left my face very smooth and pretty clean (:

Cons:

Well I guess right now, it's kind of irrtating my skin, around the bottom of my chin area. If I touch it, it get's really itchy!

It works, but irratating. I'm not sure if I should still use it or not.

Pros:

loved the steps. they cleared up my face just fine and when my face was clear i would only apply it to trouble areas.

Cons:

nothing its the best product i have tried so far.. and trust me i have tried alot of them

it works very well for my type of skin. i have tried many other products such as differin and proactiv too but found minimal change in my acne with them.
July 1, 2008

Pros:

It's not that expensive...

Cons:

It totally irritated my skin. I only used it for 4 or 5 days, and it turned my skin leathery, dry and bumpy. Yes it took the acne away... But it burned my face really badly, and my skin is typically not sensitive to products.

I was VERY disappointed. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone, no matter how bad their acne is. My face is still itching and burning even after I stopped using it 2 days ago! Horrible!

Pros:

Not really any, except clears up redness a little at first.

Cons:

Made me break out worse than I was before.

I usually use Olay products which work good on me, but have a big family function coming up and wanted to try and clear my face fast, so I picked this up at Wal-Mart. It started to clear up my redness, but did nothing for the acne, then made it worse. I switched to Dove soap (under Dr. advice) but now I am going back to Olay!

Pros:

Works fast, very well, and leaves skin super soft. I had 3 cyst zits before i tried this stuff (i was using clinique when i got the zits...clinique sucks!) and now they are like totally healed and gone. I have not found anything that works this well

Cons:

only negative i have is w/the packaging, it'd be nice if it had a dispenser or something...

I don't have much acne, but i'm prone to cyst zits and whiteheads. I'd say it's affordable and works well for mild to moderate acne.
