Pros:

only the third day and noticed a HUGE improvement already!

Cons:

makes skin a little dry. Fixable with lotion.

My Brother used proactive when he was about 15 (21 now) and he cleared up almost over night. I used proactive when i was 12 (14 now) and it made my face DISGUSTING. I used clean and clear, but it dried my face out and left my face colorless. Used clinique, and that worked, but after a month, it stopped. and anyway, it wasnt worth the $50 price. After thinking i ran out of options, a girl in my gym class recommended this to me. Its my third day, and i cant believe the difference! All my little colorless bumps are gone, and ive got about 3 pimples on my face that are rapidly clearing up. This is AMAZING!

Pros:

Improve overall apperance of skin
Reduces pores
Generally improves acne

Cons:

drys out skin
doesnt improve blackheads
hard to find
sometimes works slowly at first

Works well, use in combination with twice monthly with Neutrogena "Wave Sonic Power Cleanser". Mix provided lotion with a stronger one before applying to make sure skin doesnt dry out too much. if you have more severe acne, try Neutrogena Seven Day Intervention Kit first to clear up most acne can be found at Target or Nordstrom

Pros:

It worked great and noticed a huge impovement within a week

Cons:

can dry out skin a little. I use Olay mositurizer and it works wonderfully

I would definitedly recommend this product. I suffered with adult acne for a year. Never had it before so I was desperate for a solution. Thanks to Neutrogena acne is now gone!!

Pros:

starts clearing up skin as quickly as in the first day.

Cons:

You have to use less cleanser in order for it to last. If you have really sensitive skin it will irritate it.

It clears up acne really quickly but the cleanser runs out before the entire package is finished and and you have to buy the entire package over just for the cleanser. Pointless. It works fast but Neutrogena should sell the product seperately.

Pros:

Obviously helped my face after only one washing in the evening.

Cons:

Stiffness, a texture to skin.

Day 1: This is my first day on it and I'm seeing improvement, as much as expected. I would rate my acne as very light, but I have many tiny invisible pimples covering my nose, so I will put "light". I have pretty good skin and I'm hoping this will lead me to have it clear and wonderful. It has a mild wash and a benzoyl peroxide cream, and a lotion, so it fits Dan's Regimen nicely. So far it's a 5 for me.

Pros:

Show results in less than a week. (for me.)

Cons:

Night lotion pretty dry and irritating

I've been using this product for a little over a week and it reduce the apperance of blemishes and dried out all the bumps. So far this process is going great!! ----BUT---- The night creme pretty much makes my skin feel a little dry and irritated and I'm sure that's what's burning and drying my lebret (area below the bottom lip, right above the chin) The solution for that is to reduce the use of the product to every other day. I'll give it another two weeks and post another review. Hopefully my lebret is no longer burning!

Pros:

Works SO FAST, completely dries up oily skin

Cons:

Sometimes a little too dry, BP feels like a mask until you get some moisturizer on there.

After browsing Acne.org, I decided I wanted to try the Regimen *without* investing in pricey BP that had to be ordered online, and the On-the-Spot cream didn't look very good either. This kit offers a 2.5% BP "lotion" as part of the set, so I tried it. Note that I HAVE NOT used the Cleanser, and only used the lotion for a day before picking up an Olay lotion because I thought it might moisturize better. I have been using a gentle med-free cleanser, applying the BP twice daily, and following with moisturizer as per the Regimen. So far: Very quick results in a day or two! I am still getting a few pimples, but they fade much quicker and bother me less than previously. Time will tell if the effectiveness holds out, but I am hopeful so far. The BP keeps my skin dry all day without the oily build-up I have always had in the past. I am very satisfied!
