Pros:

- Small spot treatment gel lasts a lot longer than expected, using twice a day really helped decrease spot size & redness.

- Cleanser leaves you feeling refreshed.

- Only a thin layer of moisturiser needed

Cons:

- Quite pricey, about £13 which I think is roughly $20.

- Didn't help red marks or scars (mostly what I'm dealing with now)

- Too much moisturiser left skin oily.

Definitely give it a go, not sure whether it's worth that price though.

Pros:

better and cheaper than proactiv

Cons:

kept my acne from getting a lot worse but didn't help ever really get rid of it.

After a disasterous time with proactiv I used this and it worked better and made it so i didnt have huge painful pimples but im still on the hunt for something that will get rid of all the smaller ones I still constantly get.

Pros:

- Calms down spots quickly
- Sorta helps stop breakouts

Cons:

-didn't do anything for my red acne marks

Well, I bought the cleanser (cheaper than the whole kit) and I was impressed after the first week or so because I had hardly any pimples just 1 or 2. BUT then I broke out with 5 pimples, I didn't think much of it but its been almost a month now and they have not gone away, I'm scared!!!!! ARGH I DON"T DESERVE MORE MARKS, WHY GOD WHYYYYYY! X0 Oh, PS, Try this product but I'm unsure about if you will like it or not.

Pros:

face felt clean & fresh afterwards

Cons:

dried out skin!
very harsh on skin

i've been using this for a month but it dried out my face really bad. i usually have dry skin because it is cold where i live so i always have to use a moisturizer afterwards. i decided that this product was too harsh because step 1 was 10% BP! plus all the other chemicals in step 2/3. so, i did some research and switched face washes to a 100% natural burts bee acne solution face wash! i did some research and thought it wouldnt hurt to try something new and different! i've used acnefree, clean & clear kit, neutrogena products, proactiv, etc etc and they all worked the same. i am also prescribed clindamycin phosphate gel usp, 1% (but am going to the dermatologist soon to get prescribed something stronger) i have light - moderate acne, with dry skin.
