Pros:

Unbelievable results on my skin. I have used many many products to clear my skin (accutane, minocycline, differin gel, retin-a). This with the regimin has made my skin so soft and lightened dark marks.

Cons:

It does ball up a little if you use too much. Burns a little if skin is too dry.

This is a must buy for me! It is awesome.

Pros:

Cleared my skin in a week, when I had been struggeling with moderate acne for 1 1/2 month. Love it, makes my skin look very smooth.

Cons:

The first time I tried it on the whole face, it burned so much I felt my face was on fire. I also got very red around the mouth for some days, but then the skin got used to it, and now I use it every night as a moisturizer.

Cleared my skin in a week. Try it!

Pros:

Good value for money if it works for you.

Cons:

Stings on applications. Broke me out.

I had been using Dan Kern's BP treatment for a few months with great success and my acne virtually cleared until I started using the AHA. It broke me out instantly, I kept using it hoping it was just an initial reaction that would clear once I got use to it, but after a month of continuous breakouts I had to get rid of it.

Pros:

Great volume for the money, doesn't sting, great AHA product to help with red marks.

Cons:

If used with certain other cremes can clump up but this is a very minor issue.

Great product, I was skeptical because I don't know if Dan has a degree in chemistry, etc, but it is a great product.

Pros:

Cleared my skin, yay! Made it soft and smooth, got rid of clogged pores. A little goes a long way.

Cons:

Stings a bit sometimes but nothing too bad. Have to avoid the sun, but one should do that anyway.

I love this product. I use it as suggested in the book "The Acne Cure". In the morning I wash my face in the shower and apply a little bit of the lotion to my wet skin. I leave it on while I shower and wash it off with just water before I get out. I use Avene Clean-Ac Moisturizer mixed with a few drops of water. In the evening I wash my face and dry it. I put a little of the lotion in my hand and add a few drops of water and massage it on my face. I leave it on for 5 mins to an hour depending on how much time I have and then I wash it off with water. After my skin is dry I apply Dan's BP Treatment which I also love. My skin is almost perfect, only left-over red marks are there and a few clogged pores which come out easily. It has also worked great on my back and on clogged pores on my chest and arms.

Pros:

Great exfoliating. Pleasant scent. Easy transition from Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion (NHSFL), and has a higher concentration of AHA than NHSFL. Economical. I wake up with dewy, smooth skin. Packaging makes it easy to dispense.

Cons:

Texture a little thick, which can make it a bit hard to spread around. It also tends to ball up a bit.

I'm a fan. If it were a slightly thinner texture and didn't ball up, I'd be a huge fan.

Pros:

Evens out my skin tone and fades some new scars (for old scars, not much improvements). Reduces some black and white heads on my cheeks and nose. Controls some flaking issues as well.

Cons:

High shipping cost. Stings a little upon application. Packaging is not so good quality. Some parts of the plastic was split open by the time I received it. But I scotch tape it back anyway. Not a big problem though as the content did not leak.

I've been using it for 2 weeks and I breaks out a little initially. I think the skin needs some time to get use to it. The fragrance might be overpowering initially but after using for a while, it's actually smells nice. :)

Pros:

Skin did improve on the majority of my face

Cons:

It caused big red bumps on my chin, I only used it twice and had to stop using it, the bumps are now beginning to clear up

I was 99% percent clear before using it, I just wanted a good way to exfoliate my skin, but unfortunately this wasn't for me, my super sensitive skin couldn't handle it and it caused cystic acne on my chin. It is an excellent product though if your skin isn't as reactive.

Pros:

Amazing product for treating acne and red marks, smooths skin

Cons:

a little too shiny to use in the morning

This is by far the best AHA I have ever tried. It works the best at reducing inflamed and non-inflamed acne of any product I have ever used. It even zaps red marks fast. This product has given me my first two weeks that I was 100% clear in a long time. It complements the regimen so well that I highly recommend it to everyone. Plus, it has a light fruity smell that I like.

Pros:

-Smooth/Soft skin!
-Prevent acne!
-Skin tone looks great!

Cons:

-Can't enjoy the sun... :(

I LOVE this product! My skin looks great! I have used it as a moisturizer at night for a whole week. After putting the AHA+, I notice that my red bumps (acne under my skin) disappear! It's great! Not only it give my skin a beautiful glow, it also prevent acne if you catch them fast! This product is a must! You will love the AHA+. It works great with the Acne.org BP too. The only problem is that you can't enjoy the sun when you use it! :( So.. I only use it once in a while right now.
