Pros:

Smells okay, foams up nicely, doesn't sting or burn

Cons:

over-drying, doesn't work at all

I have to say, that i was greatly disappointed with this product. None the less, I continued to use it. It did not help, or make me break out, but it dried out my face ALOT. I might give it another try, this time with the spot treatment, but so far clinique facial soap is doing alot more for me.

Pros:

Noticable improvement immediately!

I bought this kit as a last step before the dermatologist. It seemed like every day i was getting a new pimple and I couldnt do anything to stop it. I decided to drop the 20 dollars and go for it and i am so glad I did.

Pros:

Gets rid of acne pretty quickly. Continues to keep my face fairly clear.

Cons:

Dries out face. Still break out a little, but not much.

I have been using the 3 step system: the cleanser, toner and moisturizer. I have naturally dry skin so it does dry it out pretty bad. The first week I started using it, it seemed like my face almost got worse, but it was bringing out the stuff deep inside my pores. I would say after 3 weeks, I noticed I had less acne. So far it's the first thing I have used that seems to actually work. I do break out occasionally but nothing drastic. Just a couple on my chin mostly. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the product. It does dry my skin out though. I might try just a basic cleanser in the morning instead, so it's not as harsh with the acne medication.

Pros:

I use the whole advantage kit. It starts working on the first day! Its affordable and available anywhere!

Cons:

I live in a very dry place so i have very dry skin everywhere, but this doesn't dry my skin out too much as long as i use clearasil sensitive skin lotion with it.

Nothing has ever worked for me. I've tried everything from proactive to fasting. Six months ago, I prayed very hard that God would show me the right skin treatment to clear up my embarrassing acne. As I was walking through Walmart, I found your Clean and Clear Acne Advantage and couldn't believe it was bold enough to give a 100% guarantee! I bought it partly to see if this was what God wanted me to use and partly to prove the statement wrong. The first day I noticed my skin clearing up, and by the second month my skin was almost completely clear!! My skin has been completely clear (with the exception of a minor pimple here and there) for six months! I wanted to let everyone know that God has used this to answer my prayers! I am recommending this product to everyone and praising JESUS CHRIST for the amazing miracle! It took 2 months to get fully clear so stick with it! its worth it!

Pros:

inexpensive, smells nice, works as it says it should

Cons:

drys skin

This product didn't seem to work for the majority of the people on this site b/c they don't understand how strong salicylic acid is, especially 2%. I used this once a week at night while washing the other nights with the clean and clear oil free gel cleanse. I had mild, but stubborn acne and now it is gone. This product was not meant to be used every day/night, acid on your face like that will be damaging so use it once a week w/ a mosituizer depending on your skin type. The dryer it is, the more moisturizer you use.
