Dueces acne ✌
It has really worked well for my face. I have tried sooo many products that did not work for me until this one. It requires some patience though. The results will be worth the wait. My skin is so clear right now with no bumps at all. Only like two dried out pimples. It took 6-8weeks to completely clear my face. The first week I experienced a lot of drying and also it used to sting when I put it on my face. After my skin got used to the medication, it stopped stinging. In the second or third week pimples will surface on your skin. This is so as to bring all the pimples to the surface before clearing them. In week 5you will notice a huge difference. Just be patient and give it a try. I am much more happy and confident.

Pros:

Quickly heals blemishes, reduces redness, prevents acne.

Cons:

Rendered useless right around "that time of the month," and occasionally leaves my face feeling dry. Doesn't necessarily reduces oil in the T-Zone

I love this product line! Clean & Clean (specifically, the Advantage Kit) is the only 3-step kit that has ever made a positive impact on my acne. I've had acne since middle school, and am now in the middle of my third year in college. I've tried Proactive, Nuetrogena, Stridex, Zapyt, Biore, Aveeno, Clearasil, AcneFree, and even did two cycles of Accutane. The bottom line is: It seems that every product or kit out there has either made my acne worse or stopped working after a week or two. The exception to the rule is Clean & Clear Acne Advantage Kit, which has reduced my acne to one or two occasional pimples around my right temple (thanks, bangs) and jaw line (thanks, hair). I've tried the other, more expensive Mark Eraser kit that Clean & Clear sells, but it doesn't have the same effective results that this kit has given me since freshman year. I also use Neutrogena's Fresh Foaming Cleanser as an oil an makeup remover, before washing my face with the Clean & Clear cleanser ("step 1") and the other products in this kit.

Pros:

Leaves the skin feeling clean and soft
Starts working on the 2-3rd day of use :)
Smells really nice :D

Cons:

If it's not being used consistently it doesn't work properly and the skin will break out.

I started to use this product because I was beginning to get fed up with teenage skin! I have been suffering with it since I was 10 and I'm now 16! I had a massive break out of spots on my cheek and every other product that I had used cause the spots to get dry skin on the whole on my right cheek (which has now left me with a little scar in my dimple) I bought this product after reading many good reviews and they were proved right after about a week :D I use the cleanser and moisturizer in the morning and evening and my skin is now perfect. I would recommend using it twice a day, because then it'll really work :D

Pros:

Worked so well for me! This plus birth control cleared my skin up completely. Not only did it stop my breakouts but it's also gotten rid of about 98% of my acne scarring. I cannot tell you how much I love this product!

Cons:

A little costly and it is definitely intense-follow the instructions and start off by washing only once a day with it, then move up to two (I didn't do this at first and it dried me out so bad my eyebrows had dandruff).

This worked like a miracle for me but everyone's skin is different. If you don't want to spend all the money to try it out then buy the spot treatment separately first and see how it works for you, that's how I started out, using just that would keep me down to one or two pimples at a time but now I have none!
