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:

Smells good.

Cons:

The night cream dried out my skin.
And my pimples didnt go away.

Waste of money.

Pros:

Packaged nicely, about it...

Cons:

Causes breakouts, creates stiff feeling, irritates, doesn't work

Kinda sad, i was using St. Ives SA scrub and Proactiv's BP lotion thing and it was working well but drying my skin so I switched to this nicely packaged box... I broke out in the worst spots, after a week of just terrible breakouts, i dumbed this crap. As a warning, it worked well on the first day, but then the following days just showed an opposite effect. avoid switching ur regimen to this.

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:

Gives your face great texture

Cons:

my face did not improve got worse

I got this product and used it for the first week, it seemed to be working great and then the second week, its like my face just got irritated by it and I got overnight swelling. The night cream dont just dry up your skin, it pulls it tighter, but then realises it in the morning and make you look like you have aged over night. The day cream dose nothing to help my sking cause once its on I get new acne, dont know why. The cleanser works well for me. Then main thing is it dose reducess the size of the pimples I got. I went from getting big pimples to little ones and I went from young to old.

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:

No pros

Cons:

Basically this stuff wrecked my face (and that's sugar coatin it). I got chemical burns on the side of my face and forehead and the only reason I got this stuff was because I was breaking out BAD and thought it would work, what was I thinking!

This stuff kept my acne the same and worsened it I had mild acne so I thought it would work fast but... It didn't remove one pimple I've had the same pimples I did a month ago and got new types of pimples that I have never got before! This stuff sucks I'm starting to use the oil-free acne wash that's redness soothing and I used it for the first time tonight and it feels great! So there's hope:)

Pros:

None really. I guess the sunscreen wasn't terrible, but wasn't anything at all special.

Cons:

Very harsh, very drying, and has an awful chemical-tainted odor.

This was one of the worst acne treatment products I've used. The facewash was VERY harsh and had a very unpleasant chemical odor. It dried out my skin, made it blotchy, and together with the benzoyl peroxide lotion, dried it out and turned it red. My skin tone was awful, and my acne got much worse while using this.
