Pros:

None, at all

Cons:

Everything.

NEVER and I mean NEVER use clean and clear products. I used their products just once at the directed amount and my whole face got CHEMICAL BURNS! It's so painful and will leave tons of scaring. Go all natural you don't want to ruin your skin like i did.

Pros:

Works fast, and you dont need that much so it'll last a while.

Cons:

Dries a little

I bought the astringent first at Wal-Mart for about $6.00, which dried up my face in a good way because mine is so oily! Then I bought the face wash for the same price at Wal-Mart, and in two days my face has been less oily and smoother and more refreshed. If they come out with a scrub I'll definitely buy it, because this doesn't really seem to help the stubborn blackheads on my nose! Completely recommended, go buy it at Wal-Mart for sure!!!

Pros:

smells nice

Cons:

everything. it makes your skin dry and flaky. DOES NOT WORK!

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY. if you have normal skin like i used to have it will become dry and flaky. you wont be able to cover up anything with makeup because it doesnt go on nice with flaky skin. the medication helped the slittest bit the first couple of days but after that i brokeout like i had never brokenout before. it was horrible!!! now i cant get my skin back to how it was. dont waste your money on this crap, instead go for a more natural remedy like lemon juice and if that doesnt work, try apple cider vinigar- much better than any acne treatment i ever tried. GOOD LUCK!

Cons:

makes it much worse, you will get horribly worse acne after using it.

THIS PRODUCT MAKES IT WORSE!!! DONT USE IT!!! I WENT TO THE STORE AND HAD CLEAR SKIN, AFTER USING CLEARASIL ULTRA DAILY FACIAL WASH, AND I THOUGHT IT WAS THE THING I WAS USING... LATER ON I FOUND OUT IT WAS CLEARASIL THAT I WAS USING... THIS JUST MADE MY SKIN FROM PERFECT TO SEVERE! THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST PRODUCT ON THE MARKET! DOOOOOOOOO NOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT USSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! kys.

Pros:

It is getting rid of my acne (finally!!)

Cons:

The outer packaging is too much--not enviro friendly, though I'm sure the chemicals aren't either

After two months on ProActive and only seeing petty results, I used this one after my luggage (and ProActive) were held up for more than a week. Out of PA, I started using this exclusively & saw noticeable results in just a few days! I have very oily skin & aside from mild irritation on sensitive parts (my neck), I have had no problems aside from this product not being sold at my local drug store. Other treatments don't use as much benz perox or salicylic acid as this does. Even prescription stuff from my dermatologist hasn't worked this well with such mild irritation & side effects and cost this little (a bargain compared to ProActive's rip off). Perhaps if this is irritation, try just using either the cleanser or moisturizer until your skin gets used to it, or try one of the thousands of wimpy & pathetic products on the market. This is meant to wipe out bad acne, and it worked (is still working) like a dream!

Pros:

It has a nice flowerly scent ot it. I like the way it worked on me frist, very good! cleared my face. Gave it a nice glow and a tingly feeling of freshness.

Cons:

At firsted it worked but then it didnt at ALL! However when I partner it up with Bireo... it worked really well! It gave me some redness but you couldnt notice it!

I personily LOVE it with my Bireo! It worked for me, I guess it depends on what skin type you have...!

Pros:

made my skin soft, smooth, and noticed a HUGE difference the next few days!

Cons:

alil stingy on the breakouts (but that means that the product is working)

i recommend it for people with combination skin like me. SA never cleared my acne, but when i started using BP, i noticed a difference and it doesnt dry out or irritate my skin like SA. so im blessed with BP!
