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:

The product.. it did nothing! No, but seriously. Zero pros.

Cons:

I believe it actually made my acne worse.

This product did not work for me at all. I purchased it because I could not afford Proactiv, and was under the impression it was one of the better skin companies out there. I believe the lack of a benzoyl peroxide cleanser is what did me in, but I can't be certain. Either way, even with an astringent introduced it did not work. Not even a little bit. To boot, after the few months of using the product I have more scarring than I ever did before. While the price was right, there were zero results and the product only made me MORE self-conscious about my skin.

Pros:

Smells nice, the day lotion is nice.

Cons:

I've been using this for 3 weeks and have not seen an improvement. I'm actually breaking out on my cheeks now, which has never happened before I used this product.

Didn't work for me.

Pros:

clears skin really well, smells nice

Cons:

caps to tubes are really hard to get back on, cleanser is a tad thin, day lotion makes my skin oily, not enough night lotion in system

VERY good at clearing skin. You gotta adjust the amount of each product used to suit your skin. If you have really oily skin, only use a little bit of the day lotion. You gotta concentrate the night lotion more on certain areas (my really oily spots and around my jaw line where i get a lot of break-outs). got my skin from moderately severe to moderately light. Let's hope it keeps working.

Pros:

It has a good smell, the cleanser makes you skin really soft and makes you feel really clean.

Cons:

The night cream makes you skin a pretty dry, the moisturizer makes you skin oily. It stopped working for me after like a week and my face went back to where it started...horrible.

Try it if you have light acne and make sure you don't have dry skin or really oily skin because the night cream will turn your skin into bread crumbs or the moisturizer will fill your face with oil.

Pros:

clears acne up pretty quick and not too drying

Cons:

does not prevent future breakouts all that well. At first it clears up mostly everything but after awhile breakouts comeback. My forehead cleared up pretty quick but a month later it came back lighter though not good on blackheads. Drys up a little

i would give it a try, depends on severity. mild to light it should be good but not strong enough for severe acne.

Pros:

Clears up skin in the first couple of days, works great for people who dont have sensitive skin,

Cons:

burnt my face
caused swelling
clogged pores

i have very sensitive skin, i used this treatment and noticed a difference in about two days, blackheads had cleared, under the skin blemishes had gone. but after about 4 days i felt a swelling under my nose, it had clogged one of my pores and created a swelling on the right side of my nose and made it difficult to see. aswell as this areas around my mouth and lower nose started to burn. this is a good product if you don't react to benzol peroxide and if you dont have sensitive skin.
