Pros:

Made my face feel fresh, and gave me some confidence.

Cons:

It didn't do anything for me. It gave me one of the worse breakouts of my life. Dried me skin out pretty bad.

I wouldn't buy this product again. It says it works better then proactiv, but I was so sadly disappointed. Dont do it.

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:

smells nice i guess, works okay for a few days

Cons:

stops working in about 2 weeks

i used this product for about a month. it seemed like it started clearing up my skin in about a week or 2. but then after that, it made my acne even worse than before. i stoped using it but i still use the ben. peroxide 2.5% as my regimen plan thing. just until dans treatment product gets here. right now i use olay sensitive skin moisturizer with spf 15 and cleanse with purpose fash wash and at night i use the clique moisturizer and most of my pimples and zits have reduced in size and are becoming un noticable.

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!
