Pros:

Cleanser: Soft and gentle, not too harsh
Moisturizer: Leaves my skin smooth and not flaky or dry
Spot Treatment: Seems to do its job for the most part

Cons:

I sometimes run out of the moisturizer or the acne spot treatment before the cleanser. In this case I just use a similar moisturizer or treatment until the rest runs out. Also the BP acne treatment works on most pimples, but not the very deep under the skin ones.

This system cleared my face better than any other system that I have used. My face isn't 100% clear but it's a substantial improvement from before so I am happy with the results I see. I still get a few pimples a few times a month as before they would pop up almost every day. Sometimes I get a stubborn pimple that is so far under the skin that the system doesn't help it at all. If that's the case I use a stronger BP cream (10% compared to Neutrogena's 2.5%) and that usually helps the issue.

Pros:

It cleared up my skin really good within 2 weeks and it made my skin smell great.

Cons:

I noticed that I did still break out a bit, and had a large blemish on my chin that quickly faded away since I decided to stick with this system for another week.

I think that once your skin gets used to the product, the results will be great. It may take more time for other people (like for me, it took me 2 weeks to get clearer skin) but the results in the end were good enough to keep me using it.

Pros:

BP is a gel (yes!)
Comes with a day lotion
Cleanser is really GENTLE for an acne cleanser
Costs less than other systems

Cons:

Does not control oil that well
Day lotion and BP gel bottles are small
Will only clear if used consistently every day

I bought this a few weeks before school came back. It is awesome. It cleared up my forehead, but my nose and the edges still get zits and are oily. I have been using it for about almost three weeks now, with some times skipped, and it's good. I do have a few pimples around my nose and one big one between my eyes. Now, I just need a good oil remover to go along with it. If you want to clear your acne quick, get this system.

Awesome product

Pros:

Clears acne super fast
face is soft and normal looking ( pore size)
comes with lotion/ sunscreen so my face isn't too dry in the morning.

Cons:

A little pricey
doesn't work on dark marks too well.
a little drying when lotion isn't used.

I have been using this product for about a week. The first night i used it, my skin was dry and i felt as though i had wasted my money because my face was so irritated . The next morning I looked AMAZING!!! all my acne had either cleared or gotten smaller. The irritation bumps that were so hard to get rid of were gone with one use. I recommend this to everybody i know. Works wonders.

clears acne
fast results
makes skin soft

Cons:

drys skin a little at first

This worked very well for me. When I first started to use it did dry out my skin so I only use it at night and just use the spf lotion in the morning. It clears acne right away only hav a few spots but barely noticeable. It makes my skin really soft. I love this product.

Pros:

Nightime solution:Quick on the spot treatment
Cleanser: not harsh, doesn't sting or burn
Daytime Lotion: Light, not oily

Cons:

I ran out of the Daytime Lotion before the other two. I think because I had to use quite a bit to moisturize my skin.

Absolutely the only acne treatment I have loved & stuck with. It's really easy & I feel that I have come to better understand my skin & prevent major breakouts. Even though I ran out of the Daytime lotion early I picked up the Neutrogena Oil Free Moisture Lotion with SPF 15 which is a great moisturizer.

Pros:

It worked pretty well!

Cons:

It doesn't come with a moisturizer.

When I went on a vacation to California, my skin cleared almost completely. But I don't know if it was the sun, or the treatment. Then, I ran out before I got home and have not gotten it again. I will review again when I get it again.
