Pros:

Worked for the first two days

Cons:

Stopped working and after discontinuing, skin broke out

I rarely get any pimples on my face, just a bump or two every now and then and then a few when I am menstruating. I got this product thinking that it would get rid of my acne in no time... but I was very wrong. I started using it twice a day, as instructed and everything was fine. The acne seemed to be clearing up and, after the second day, it was gone. Then, I got some more bumps and kept using it, but it didn't seem to be helping much, after a few weeks. I decided to discontinue and, to my surprise, soon after I woke up with huge redish bumps on my cheek about a day or so after I stopped using this. I have NEVER experienced this before... I am 100% sure it had something to do with this product. I will never buy this stuff again.

Pros:

the only thing that's usable is the facial wash. but it hardly helps either.

Cons:

the night cream sucks. it envelopes you pimples then it gets under your skin and you get lump-like-pimples or something. made my skin worse.

day cream doesn't work at all. only makes your face super shiny like a bald head.

didn't work for me. made it worse. bought this product from the states and i thought it would work. psshh! IT DIDN'T!!! oh yeah, the packaging of the facial cleanser drips. even if the cap is on the liquid inside oozes out. I dunno why.

Pros:

~works so much better than Proactiv! much less irritating cleanser, didn't leave my skin red
~within 2 days I noticed much clearer/smoother skin!

Cons:

DEFINITELY use another moisturizer! especially with the night cream, its very drying. I use Aveeno skin relief moisturizing lotion with menthol, its actually not a meant as a face lotion but I've found its very soothing and doesn't clog pores! :]

I used Proactiv for a couple years and got pretty good results but decided to stop and see what happened. BIG MISTAKE. I broke out worse than ever. I tried this product and within days saw better results than anything I've tried so far. It's been about a week and I'm still battling a couple of old pimples but for the most part everything is clearing up One thing I've learned is to never let your skin get dry and irritated, it will lead to more breakouts, so when I use the night cream I let it set and then add another moisturizer that keeps your skin so much healthier :] Helped so much with my very oily skin, I've never noticed a product reducing oil and shine as much as this one So far, so good!

Pros:

not much..

Cons:

very dry and major allergic reactions.

the first time i used this product my face, right after my face became a red balloon. then i tried to give this product another try and the same results came back and it made my skin REALLY dry. i do not recommend this product at all.

Pros:

it smells nice!

Cons:

it cost me like 25$

i just started using it, my acne isn't that severe. but i have really oily skin so it causes me to have random break outs. so let's hope this works?! :D

Pros:

Not a single 1 for me.

Cons:

This took me from light acne to severe acne, very drying... Just not a goos product at all for me.

I was so excited to try this, i had light acne on my chin and that was it, after using this for 3 weeks my acne is so horrible, idk what to do. I am in shock at the way this left my skin, i read so many good reviews on this and wish i had 1 to add but noooo this product is no good for me.
