Pros:

it's effective, and dramatically reduced my acne in about two days. i have been using the whole advantage kit.

Cons:

it can dry out sensitive skin, and if you're using other products after it may cause mild irritation, so just reduce application amount/frequency.

it works.

Pros:

Works well, doesn't irritate spots, doesn't over dry, no alcohol denat, no sodium laureth sulfate!

Cons:

Can't think of any apart from price, but it is worth

I hate it when my spots become more red and larger once irritated after washing, this however does not due to all the natural ingredients, and doesn't contain sodium laureth sulfate or alcohol denat which both irritate spots! Also contains salyclic acid, which stops pores from blocking.

Pros:

I have cystic acne, this is the only thing that I can use regularly, a pea size amount (it will overdry your skin) to keep the volcanoes from erupting, not their strongest in scent

Cons:

I have to use it everyday at the same time (convienent because I shower every day)

IT WORKS! One should never overuse acne products, as they can overdry your skin. I don't have to buy a huge kit, the cleanser alone works and it is wonderful. I have SUFFERED with acne since I was 14, and this is the only product that makes my skin flawless. I use any lotion I want and don't use astringents or other cleansers. I don't have the embarrasing oozing face of pus many people with my acne experience.

Pros:

none

Cons:

burns the skin

This product is a nightmare!!! Im a beauty therapist and have suffered with acne since the birth of my daughter. I used this product once and had a severe reaction to it. my face swelled beyond recognition and my skin looks like it has had acid poured onto it. I have been in so much pain, I appreciate that I have had an allergic reaction to this product, but all the ingredients in the product I have used before in different combinations. I would strongly recommend that no one uses this product. Its been nearly one week since using the product and still my skin is red, flaking, lumpy and extremely painful.

Pros:

Smells nice

Cons:

Everything!

I have used Proactive for years with great results. When I saw that this was supposedly better than Proactive, I decided to give it a try. I have not broken out this bad in YEARS. I expected to break out at first, while my skin adjusted to the new treatment, however I have used the entire system completely and everday I seem to have a new blemish. I should have known better than to switch from something that was working. I will never switch again!

Pros:

Nothing really.

Cons:

Has a strong fragrance, I don't like fragrances in my acne medications. Leaves behind a flaky residue.

I just bought this as a temporary face wash because they were all out of the Zap Zyt acne pack, it contained the same amount of salicylic acid as the zap zyt acne wash, but it didn't work as well. It was alright for the first couple days but after about a week I broke out severely on my chin, which doesn't usually happen.

Pros:

Smells nice and acts like a 2nd skin on pimple/s.

Stings, increases pimples, gives you more oily skin and generally does'nt work!
