Clean & Clear Has the Worst Products
I used this for months before I realized the damage it was doing to my skin. I'm not new to C&C, as I've tried it for many years. Shame on me for believing this product would be any different. I have an oily T zone with normal cheeks. I never have breakouts on my cheeks, but I got them frequently while using this. I'm not sure if it was the numerous harsh chemicals used to formulate the wash, or the filmy residue it left despite me rinsing my face countless times. This is not the first time I have complained about a Clean & Clear product, however it will be the last. They have proven time and time again that they do not work as advertized and dry all skin types out. It's alarming that Johnson & Johnson comments on nearly every review on their website stating that it's "not typical of their products" and ask you to call their Consumer Care Center. That is a huge red flag to me. I will not be purchasing anything from their line again and I will be switching to all-natural skin care provided by LUSH Cosmetics and Origins.

Terrible

Pros:

None

Cons:

Burning
Tiny, clustered pimples all over nose and mouth
Itchy and Painful

I have been using Steps 1 - 3 Advantage Clean & Clear for 2 days Followed the instructions clearly and today i woke up to tiny blister-like pimples all around my mouth area and nose. My face is very itchy, red and painful. It also feels extremely tight. I have moderate acne - Don't recommend this product at all. The bin is waiting in open arms for this kit.
