Pros:

- Easy to follow steps
- Calms angry spots super quickly
- Continues to improve skin with consistent use
- Doesn't smell revolting

Cons:

- Can be drying - don't use too much!
- Some people mightn't like the scent
- Doesn't stretch far for the price

I'm one of those people who has tried everything and loses heart after weeks of either no results or worsening acne. I will openly admit that after three or four weeks, if I don't see any improvement whatsoever, I struggle to remain consistent when it comes to applying treatments... I have been gutted like a fish plenty of times by products that make promises and use Delta Goodrem's fake fluoride smile to sell them. I was floundering with my regime and I saw this kit at the supermarket, so I figured it couldn't hurt to try it. My face was in a state, and it had been for a few weeks. I'd basically given up on it and I felt disgusting. I started using this system without any high hopes (I just felt like I needed to do SOMETHING). Three weeks later, my skin has cleared up considerably and it has smoothed out like crazy. I still have some atrocious red marks, but I don't care... I can cover flat marks with makeup, whereas trying to cover big, painful red bumps with makeup just makes me want to cry. It can be drying, but I've found my skin has adapted to it. Remember that you need to exfoliate (gently... very, very gently!) to slough off dead skin. I use a baby's hairbrush. This is pretty long-winded, but honestly, if you're looking for something that's easily acquired that gives you decent results, try this. If it doesn't work, at least you can say that you've tried it out. And if you're like me and you suck at keeping up regimes, the step system will pro'lly help you keep up consistent treatment (I can be totally useless with it sometimes).

Pros:

-decreases pimple size
-clears chest acne
-decreases redness
-feels tingly
-smells good

Cons:

-hasn't cleared up all acne yet

This product feels great and started working for me the next day. I am a little weary because of the reviews saying that it works for the first week and then stops, but I think it depends on your skin type. I find that I have very tough skin, so the drying aspect of the product doesn't affect me. The biggest pro is that my chest acne (which was very light, but a big concern of mine) is completely gone after 2 days!

Pros:

-Makes skin smooth
-Controls Redness
-Decreases pimple amount and size
-Smells nice:D
-Gives skin nice healthy glow
-Evens skin tone

Cons:

-Drying if you don't use properly
-Doesn't work for everyone
-Moisturizer doesen't last long
-They exagerate their statements(e.g. 100% of people had clearer skin in one day)
-Dosent get rid of blackheads

This worked pretty well for me. The first time I tried it, I saw great results the next morning. But after around a week my skin was drying out like crazy!!!! The cleanser is very strong. Its 10%BP and the .5% Salicylic acid moisturizer was not enough to keep my skin in control. So I stopped using the BP cleanser and used something else. The spot treatment stops working after around a week. So about that time I was only using the moisturizer (Which I LOVE) The moisturizer doesnt feel oily on my skin and it really helps acne while keeping your skin moisturized . I recently came back to this routine and my skin has been looking great. For the best results you need to combine different products. my routine is: AM: -Wash with BP cleanser -Moisturize with Clean and clear moisturizer and then with clean and clear morning glow SPF 15. PM: -Wash with BP cleanser -Exfoliate with sugar and Olive Oil (3-5x a week) -Moisturize with clean and clear cleanser. -Moisturize again with Tarocco natural moisturizer that contains orange extracts and olive oil. As you see I need to moisturize alot to keep my skin from drying out. And yet my skin is still slightly flaky. I would not recommend using the cleanser if you have sensitive skin.

Pros:

Reduces whitehead size
Eliminates blackheads
Reduces redness
Fades overall acne
Cheap

Cons:

Drys skin a lot

I'm currently using this product, and I'm starting to like it a lot! However, it drys my skin out a lot, so I use it every other night. I only payed 20 dollars for it, and I think its worth it! I haven't used it on my back and chest acne, because I'm afraid I'll get way over dried since I'm most sensitive there. Overall, pretty effective product!
