Pros:

reduces pimples fast
cheaper
reduces redness
JUST GREAT

Cons:

None really. irritates your skin a little bit but that is fixable.

This is absolutely GREAT!!!!! A must buy for all you people that suffer from acne. It irritates a little bit but just use face lotion and you'll be just fine. I've used PRO active , clear skin and many more and none have helped me as much as Neutogena. a lot cheaper to. Worked great for me hope it works great for you.

Pros:

Oh my God! After 2 days using it it has calmed my skin down. No new bumps (and there's always new bumps), no oil, I can hardly see any black heads on my nose and the redness is virtually gone....I feel like they made this just for me because it's perfect.

Cons:

So far none...it dries out a little but no big deal.
I am using the medicated lotion only at night and the SPF one during the day since my acne is not severe.

I can't even begin to describe how much I'm loving this product. It's only been 2 days and I'm already seeing a difference. My skin is not breaking out anymore and the redness is fading away. It has also dried out the ones that were coming out and were very easy to extract (now they are GONE!) I will write another review in a week, but I have to admit I'm very impressed. I've been on pills and everything and nothing has worked like this so far. I really think this is it...:)

Pros:

I've only been using it for about a week, and I' already seeing significant improvements. This product works sooo much better than proactiv, and it's way faster. My skin feels good all day, and it doesn't feel greasy/shiny. I love it!

Cons:

The moisturizer isn't exactly very moisturizing. Sometimes, my skin will feel dry, but I put on some cetaphil moisturizer (also great) so it's all good :)

I don't have terrible acne, mostly whiteheads and blackheads. Proactiv didn't work for me at all, but I think it was designed for people with more severe acne. This product is great, and I'm hoping that my skin will be completely clear in not too long! It gives you great results without the huge price.

Pros:

Convenient to buy
Works great
Sunscreen in lotion

Cons:

None!

I've had moderate acne for 10+ years (I'm 25), its never been bad enough to see a doctor but I always hoped it would clear with age, and it never did. I tried every OTC product I could find. Last winter I was visiting my younger cousin and she used this system, so I used it while I was there for about 3 days. In that time, I noticed a significant difference in my skin tone, it looked smooth and healthy. My breakouts were clearing up right away also. I bought some right away, and after the first 2 months of using it consistently, my face was much more clear. The cleanser is wonderful and really cleans everything off. The acne cream is drying, but my face got used to it. I wash and use the cream twice daily, and only use the sunscreen lotion during the day (I live in S. FL and sunscreen is a must), it has been working wonders for me. I've been using the products for about 5 months now, not only are my breakouts gone, but my skin tone is like a child's skin and gets better every month - I've completely stopped wearing face makeup and I'm sure that helps my complexion as well. Everyone has different skin and this probably won't work well for everyone, but if you have mild acne and can commit to using the same products consistently, give it a shot - you have nothing to lose!

Pros:

clears up acne really well

Cons:

takes a lot longer than it says and the lotion makes your face super tight so u need to add a good moisturizer

Pros:

My skin cleared up my skin fast! The benzoyl peroxide works fantastic! The mousturizer leaves skin smooth and radiant!

Cons:

Cleanser is not so powerful but it's decent.

My skin cleared up about 50 percent or maybe more after one day!!! It was amazing! It was mainly the 2.5% benzoyl peroxide that I left on for the over night treatment that worked. The cleanser didn't cleanse so well so I used something with 2% salicylic acid instead of 1.5% Since today is the second day I've used it I absolutely can't wait 'till tomorrow morning to see how much more my face has cleared up Oh not to forget but I really prayed to God to help me get my face cleared. So I'm also thanking God for answering my prayers ((:

Pros:

Completely soft on skin, no fragrance, incredibly cheap (didn't even used the coupon), Easy to use, and it lasts long! =D

Cons:

Little - Moderate drying, easily stopped by just splashing on some water, or using the neutrogena moisturizer.

Goes great with conjunction of clearasil stayclear acne scrubber. I have some acne on my forehead and nose, so i purchased this around febuary. Didn't work at first, so I used a proactiv system until august. Proactiv didn't work, but I had this so I used it again to see if it could work. It did, espically with clearasil. So, my acne got more into tone with my natural color of skin, and shrinked rapidly. You can see the results in the morning because every day it just gets smaller and smaller. Incredible! So why would you pay for proactiv (30$) when you can get this for 20$ (15$ with coupon) and get way better results? I'm 13 and teenage acne is starting with me, but neutrogena's got's me covered. ;)
