Pros:

It's cheap, smells good & works.

Cons:

You can't use it more than once a day if you have sensitive skin (like me)

The lotion you apply after the cleanser makes you feel like you just got botox. When you let it dry your face becomes somewhat numb and feels really weird. Apply the sph 15 sunscreen all over where you applied the lotion and it helps. It makes your face feel somewhat tight & it also makes your face kinda itchy if you have sensitive skin. BEWARE though, if you have sensitive skin do not use this more than once a day or you WILL get flaky red nasty skin!

Pros:

After using this product for a few days, my skin had more of a healthy glow.

Cons:

The night creme was way too intense and overdried my skin and overall, my acne did not decrease and the dryness, redness, and peeling did.

By the time i finished the entire package, my skin was just as bad if not worse than before.

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 ((:

works quickly

Cons:

cant use it more than once a day

this stuff is seriously amazing. i've been using it about 2 weeks and my skin has never been so clear. i never have hadBAF ance but ive always had small bumps on my forehead here and there. Since i've been using it, the bumps are completely gone. my forehead is so smooth. i once in while have gotten the big pimples underneath the skin that hurt and since i've been washing my face with this system i havent gotten one. my face is so smooth. i'm in love.

Pros:

Works really well, I see results really fast. And plus, the cleanser smells like baby oil! =]

Cons:

The lotion is a little bit drying, so I use it as an on-the-spot creme.

I really like this line of products, and I recommend it to others.

Pros:

Pimples disappear for the first two days

Cons:

Made my face red and flaky, DRIES OUT YOUR SKIN

I used this for a couple of days. The first day when I used it, my pimples vanished and finally thought that this was THE product that worked. However, on the second day, my face was red and blothchy all over, and there were skin bubbles that made me gross out! I learned that with this cleanser, you have to put the moisturizer with the spf. But still, it made my face REALLY dry and red.

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. ;)

Pros:

It's wonderful, clears skin up, actually works!

Cons:

It is very drying, and the moisturizer over the acne lotion feels heavy, but it's worth it

I have been trying to find a working acne product since I was 10 years old,(I'm now almost 16) I've been on the prescription creams, accutane, and more. I eventually tried proactiv, it works at first, but when you sweat it really burns, and it just kinda stops...(though the refining mask is wonderful!) but yeah this system is wonderful, and the price is great as well ~2 month supply for around $20 =D
