Pros:

The acne polisher is really soapy and refreshing and i liked it. And the morning stuff was cool.

Cons:

Night stuff made my face stiff a little.

Okay ppl on here are whining about the night stuff making your skin stiff its really not that bad it goes down after awhile and you shouldnt be putting it all over your face. And if its causing redness that probablym eans your allergic to it duh!! Some morons are putting really stupid comments on here. But anyways i think its cool and i looked at the ingredients and it has 2 of the recommended ingredients to help acne. so far i think its cool.

Pros:

Seems to work within the first 2 days

Day lotion makes skin feel fresh and smells nice

Cons:

The night cream drys my face a little

Any activity that involves intense sweating with the day cream just feels gross

I have only used Advanced Solutions for about 3 days and it seems to be doing the job. I have never had severe acne but ocassionally I will break out in certain areas, and sicne I have started using Advanced Solutions I havent had any new pimples

Pros:

Only about 20 dollars, works in a week or so

Cons:

Can be a bit drying, and I'm not convinced that my breakouts are gone for good

Use it in moderation and you'll be all set

Pros:

makes my fave feel awesomely smoothe
last time I used this product, my face was absolutely blemish free.

Cons:

As soon as summer hit, the product made me break out like crazy. I would reccomend not spending much time in the sun or tanning beds for that matter. The product will work against you.

I used this product two years a ago and my face was all clear until summer came along. I stopped using it. But now that my skin has been in the worst condition it's ever been in, I'm starting to use it again and I remeber why I loved it.

Pros:

~ Reduces redness within the first couple days
~ Cleanser feels like it actually CLEANS skin
~ Night cream tightens your skin a tiny bit so you know it's working!

Cons:

~ Cleanser dries out skin a little but is helped a little with the day cream
~ Hasn't quite reduced the AMOUNT of pimples yet.

I've been using this product for a week and I love it! I can feel it working and it has definitely reduced the size and redness of pimples, however there has been no change in the amount of pimples. (hopefully that will change with continued use) Cleans and refreshs my skin in 2 easy steps... Morning: wash with cleanser and apply day cream Night: wash with cleanser and apply night cream SIMPLE! Give it a try :)

Pros:

It does help clear your skin, but you have to wait. Like it said, in FOUR days, it will reduce redness inflammation blackheads and overall acne. In four days you will see this.

Cons:

It dries your skin BUT if you put on the day moisturizer before the night before you go to bed, it wont dry out your skin.

It works great, and for the price it is EVERYONE should go get it.

Pros:

cleared up my skin in a matter of days
easy to use

Cons:

my skin is a bit dry

My skin started to get really bad out of no where, I tried several products (including proactiv) and none of them worked, in fact most just made my skin worse. I read about this product in an article and decided to try it, and so far it's been a GREAT decision. Im hoping it continues to clear my skin until the point of complete clarity. The only thing i would change about it is that i would put the products in bottles that have pumps on them instead, sometimes the wash slips right off my fingers!
