Pros:

Cheaper than proactive

Cons:

Too harsh of a cleanser

I really thought this product dried out my skin and it made me breakout even more. I've used other Neutrogena products, but it was never this harsh. I used it the first day I bought it and that was it. The cleanser was way too harsh on my skin. If you have sensitive skin or even normal skin, do NOT use this product.

Pros:

It worked wonders on my skin, but I had to wear Mary Kay oil-free moisturizer on top, which I already had because I was following Dan's regimen. If you add this moisturizer, you'll see clear skin in nooooo time

Cons:

moisturizer is a little too heavy on my skin, so I wear the Mary Kay oil-free moisturizer

IT WORKS!

Pros:

worked within the first 2 days
smells nice
did not over dry my face (i am really oily)

Cons:

price
and amount of product

this worked for me after only 2days of use. i have very oily skin but i have few breakouts. it smells nice and goes on nicely too. for all those who are looking for the right acne product to work you should use something for at least 6 months so you can get use to it. unless of course you react to it soon after you try it.

Okay, so I've been using this product for like a week and a half and I seriously see the difference. My skin is WAY softer. My forehead is totally clearing up and so is my chin. My cheeks still have these little bumps, but they will go soon. I have like 3 noticeable pimples but I think they shall be leaving soon, We'll see! Try this product out seriously.

Pros:

Skin feels nice after wash
Reduces black heads and pimples!

Cons:

At first after washing skin feels a bit dry

I've never really had bad acne and never really had many pimples until recently. My face broke out badly on one side of my face and then the other side was beginning. I wanted to try the whole 3- steps solution and so I did and I'm glad I did cuz my face has never felt smoother and it got rid of my little problem. I suggest a moisturizer after it cuz it may feel a bit dry. Oh and every once in a while, at least 2 times a week after washing face use a scrub, then apply the lotion. :)

Pros:

There were no pros in using this product.

Cons:

Redness and severe facial rash after two days of using this product.

I would not recommend this product to anyone. I have always had clear skin until moving to a new area. My acne was very mild but I wanted clear skin again. I followed the direction on the box and stayed out of the sun as perscribed. After two days of trying this product I broke out in a rash on my face and neck. On the third day the rash became very red and irritated. Then, on the fifth day my face became very dry and a couple pimples formed. My face has never looked this bad. The company was gracious enough to give me a full refund. Don't chance it just use something else.

Pros:

Nice packaging, smells good, cool to have a built-in scrub

Cons:

Too harsh for sensitive skin

I had oily skin when I started this product; it dried my skin out to the point where my follicles started churning more oil out to make up for the deficiency, resulting in oilier skin than ever before, with - get this - dry patches all over the place, because the skin underneath was producing tons of oil but the skin on top was still dry and dead from the topical treatment. The Benzoyl Peroxide also bleaches any fabric with which it comes into contact, which STINKS because it makes all your sheets look funny, and you have to be VERY careful when dressing and undressing. This product got rid of my acne for a little while, but the pain and dryness wasn't really worth it, and after about a year, just like Proactiv, my skin caught on to the game and the product stopped working.

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!!
