Pros:

I use this along with the other products in the Clean and Clear Acne Advantage Kit. I've been on Tazorac, Plexicon, the Pill, BenzaClin, and RetinA over the last 10 years and finally decided to try something over the counter. It works well!

This tingles a bit but I don't mind. it only takes a small amount in the morning and then again before bed time. it works extremely well with the other two products in the acne advantage control kit you can pick up for $20 total at any pharmacy. I am really very pleased with the results of this cleanser. often i use an eye make-up remover first (because you shouldn't use this on them) and then proceed with the cleanser. i am 23 yrs. old and would def. recommend this!

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:

It cleared my skin and kept it clear, soft, and happy

Cons:

May be dry or irritate your face the first half week or so, but it begins to work with your skin.

Depends, I use the whole system, and I also use the clean and clear sensitive skin acne astringent and my skin is much clearer than 2 years ago. I used to use Acne Free Which does work extremely well, but it stopped working, so I alternate between both systems every 3 months or so.

Pros:

Affordable & works.

Cons:

Nothing.

People say it makes their skin all flaky and stuff, but I think they're just allergic to what's in the product -- benzoyle peroxide. Many people are allergic to it.

Pros:

Please Read Press Clipping typed from my Grand'Daughter Casie in her High School "Junior Class" East Central HC

Cons:

to be continued... how can I send you the rest of my grand'daughter press clipping promoting your product???

I decided to buy Clean & Clear Acne Spot Treatment because, just like every other other typical teenager, I often have to deal with an annoying predicament called zits. After about a week of using this product, which can be purchased at a local drugstore for about $6.99, I decided that this was a product I'd probably buy again. According to Clean&[link removed], this acne spot treatment is a "break-through formula" that begins to work the moment it makes contact with the infected area to quickly reduce the size and redness of pimples. The web-site even claims that "l00% of people in clinical testing showed improvements as early as day one!". While I didn't see a significant difference after my first use, I do like this product and would recomment it to any teenager combating with blemishes (so, basically, just about all of us). This acne treatment is a transparent get that contains 3% salicylic acid, an acne-fighting ingredient that aids in unclogging pores and preventing future break-

Pros:

cleared my skin very well, have had very minimal pimples after i started using it.

Cons:

may dry out skin, use a moisturizer!!

I had moderate acne before i came upon this product, i had been using the "acne free" system before, but i still got a bunch of zits. This cleanser has seriously made my face SO much better. It made my skin a bit worse at first, but by using it on a twice daily basis, i've been able to keep my face clear of pimples! of course i still get one or two every once in a while, but they are generally smaller and shorter lived than they were before. My nose hasn't been this smooth since middle school!

Pros:

I have a bunch of whiteheads on my forehead and its the only cleanser that can get rid of them! I evens out my skin tone and make my pores less visible.

Cons:

Well like any cleanser, you need patience and takes awhile for the effects to take place.

It worked for me and I have tried almost everything for my skin, but everyone skin is different and unforetunately it might not be for everyone. If you have oily skin and whiteheads and blackheads I would recommend this for you. More severe ance should take prescriptions from a doctor or dermotologist.

Pros:

This is a great product for my skin, and to everybody you must use a moisterizer! Even if your skin doens't feel dry it needs to be moisterized!

Cons:

It's common sense, if your skin is dry and flaky it's going to look dull and sh*tty even if you pile on all the makeup. Even those with oily skin, you need to moisterize!

This is a great product, I recomend it to anybody, and always use at least a light moisterizer after.

Pros:

smells really nice
MUST US WITH ENTIRE LINE!!
this is not sold in the 'package' as everyone is referring to.

Cons:

Does dry out temporarily and you MUST use entire line of products

There's two types of Clean and Clear Advantage. This one is the less expensive one and you need to buy the astringent, oil free moisturizer, and the spot treatment gel. I use it and it keeps my skin clear. I still have breakouts but my pimples last shorter on my face than before. I use it in the shower after my pores have all been opened by the steam. I use the blackhead eraser (also clean and clear product) then use the astringent and then moisturize. I use the gel on spots for overnight treatment and wake up with clear skin.

Pros:

works well- my skin looks a lot better from just a week ago. I love the cleanser- it makes your skin tingle.

Cons:

Does not work in the advertised time- 1 day? Yeah, right. But I knew going into it that it wouldn't work that fast.

I have only used this for 8 days and my skin looks so much better. It's not perfectly clear, but it's getting close.
