Pros:

My skin is sooooooo soft and pretty much blemish- free with only about 5 small ones you can't even see! I was trying so many acne medications and none seemed to work. You feel amazing and re-freshed

Cons:

It could smell better

Use it. It works.

Pros:

Doesn't dry out my skin too much, only under my nose a bit. Works fairly well.

Cons:

A tad bit drying. It also takes a while to work, but then starts working.

This product works really well. It doesn't clear acne completely or prevent it too much, but it stops it and controls it. I used to have mild acne, but now it is definitely mild to none. If a new zit pops up, this will control it and slow down the process in which it grows in.

Pros:

Fairly affordable, starts to work within a few days.

Cons:

As other reviewers have mentioned, the night cream is pretty drying. After about 5 days, my acne is coming back.

At first this product worked really good, i was so impressed. It cleared up my acne by about 40% just within the first 3 days. Now, a week since i purchased it, it looks like my acne might have actually gotten worse :( I don't understand what has caused it to become worse- I've been using it two times a day everyday, consistently.

Pros:

the cleanser made your face feel so renewed
the night cream made your face oil-free, dry, but very smooth to me
the day lotion reduced the dryness and the peeling during the day but not completely unless you continued reapplying it

Cons:

during the day my face got really peely and i had to either keep reapplying the lotion or some other type of moisturizer

it worked well for me and i have a low severity in my acne and i wanted to prevent it from getting worse like my other family members. although i feel that everyone is different and you might have to try a few acne systems until you find the right one.

Pros:

I just started using the product tonight and it leaves my skin dry, which for me...is good because i have oily skin....

Cons:

I havent used the day cream yet, im afraid it will make my skin even more oily from what ppl say

Dont know how it works yet, i just returned some clean & clear which made me break out over night...so far clearasil is the best, we'll see how this works
August 20, 2008

Pros:

Does work fairly well, doesn't remove all my acne, but removes most of it.

Cons:

Does not work super fast.

I have used this for about 2-3 weeks, and it has cleared up most of my acne. I will admit that if it wasn't for this, my face would be really bad. But this stuff works really well, and I love the night cream. But, it did dry up my skin a bit, so I don't think it is for those with dry skin. My skin is pretty oily, so I think it would work for me because of that.
August 17, 2008

Pros:

Worked well for a while...

Cons:

Acne got worse for the first two days... then cleared up. Now after 2 months its litterally stopped working, it might have even made my face worse.

Im not going to be one of those people that say " it doesnt work for me so it wont work for anyone" that being said give it a try.

Pros:

-you can feel the cleanser working once you put it on
- it leaves skin feeling smooth
- the night cream i use during the day because it keeps my skin from going back to oily

Cons:

- the day cream makes my skin oily, so i just use the night cream

This product will probably work for anyone with oily skin. I've noticed on the other reviews it doesn't work for some people because they have dry skin already. If your skin is dry, this product will probably be irritating to your skin. However, my skin has always been super oily, so it works pretty good so far for me. It leaves your face feeling really clean and smooth..so far so good.
