Pros:

I am over 55 and use these products specifically for purposes of anit-aging; keeping my skin clean, and my pores small. In my lifetime, I have tried a plethoria of soaps and creams until one day about 6 years ago, I came across Carley's on eBay and thought I would take a chance. I have never come across anything that works as well on my skin. The soap cleans my skin beautifully and the creams and lotions are non-oily, go on silky smooth, and feel just luscious on the skin.

Cons:

I use these products for anti-aging so I cannot comment on how it works for those with acne.

I would like to take a moment to address the negative reivews I have read and I say what a bunch of nonsense - anyone can write anything they want on the internet and never have to take accountablity for it. In business, there is competiton, and that is a good and healthy thing, because, when you have a choice, companies are then forced to produce better products. On the other hand, it can be underhanded and it is unfortunate that some businesses will stop at nothing to discredit their competition. By reading the negative comments, I suspect that is the case. Anyone who has really tried these products could not have had such an experience like that, maybe the products don't work the same for everyone, but the silly things written here about it? Just nonsense! And the people who make these prodcuts have never tried to "fool" me in any way, shape or form. But, I look at it this way, the product must be REALLYgood if the competition is jumping in with their negative 2 cents!! These are QUALITY products. For those of you who disagree with me, you are entitled to your own opinon (nothing works the same for everyone) BUT you are not entitled to make up your own facts. Take these negative reviews with a grain of salt....

Pros:

Absolutely the best Adult Acne treatment I've ever used, and I've tried everything from the stores, and even tried the one from the "Infomercial", and it worked in the beginning, but the results didn't last like they have with Carley's Clean & Smooth. The ingredients are top of the line and the customer service is A+++.

Cons:

There are no CONS for this prodcut or company. They are the TOPS!!

Bottom Line, this product works better than anything I've tried. It is easy to use and my skin has been clear for over a year now. I have saved so much money because I've finally found something that works as described....and I now have no need to continually try new things. The people at Carley's are really great too. If you have a question or concern they actually reply to emails with answers that make sense and are very helpful to guide you to use their products for optimal success. I would recommend that anyone with skin issues, either acne problems or sensitive skin give this line a try.....It really is wonderful.... I noticed another comment said that one of the "CONs" was that it had a bleaching effect, I just wanted to mention that in my experience, any product that contains benzoil peroxide will bleach natural fibers. This includes spot treatments as well as facial washes. I knew this when I started using Carley's and made a point of buying a large pack of white face cloths to make sure I didn't ruin my good ones. Also, per the directions, you are supposedd to lather the cloth up after using the scrub and do a final wash, which should remove any residue of the scrub... I've never had a problem with my clothes or pillow cases being discolored due to this product.... Ultimately....I give it an A++++ and I highly recommend it!!

Pros:

Cheap It was 20 dollars for a bottle, but the bottle lasted a few months.

Cons:

didn't work
time consuming
I didn't like the smell

I used this for about 6 months. I stuck with it because it warns that it will make you break out at first. But 6 months after starting it, my face was the worst it had been in the last 8 years. Including BIG pimples that I had never gotten before, and now have a problem with after using Carley's. It DEFINITELY didn't work for me. But it seems to work for plenty of other people, so maybe it's worth a try??? But I wish i wouldn't have.

This stuff is fantastic! I can't get enough! The service is great and the seller is very honest and helpful in any way he can be. He has always answered any questions I had and was very helpful and happy to help. I was on prescription medicines for my skin a few years ago and I got tired of paying the high prices for my meds. I did a search online and found carleys. I have been using it ever since and love it!!!

Pros:

None.

Cons:

I had mild acne before trying this product and purchased it on the basis of the many positive reviews on this site. Within a few weeks I had deep cystic acne on my jawline that I had never experienced before.

Please be very wary of the reviews for Carly's on this site. Although the product may work for some people, the claims of its effectiveness in reviews on acne.org are grossly exaggerated and likely false (as has been pointed out by others). The manufacturers are very defensive about their tactics and claim that the product is not a "scam" because it works for some people. However, any company that willfully deceives its clients into believing their product is much more effective than it is, is scamming them. I bought this product based solely on the reviews seen here and feel like I was duped. I know they have a money-back guarantee, but seriously I would have paid triple the price to not have experienced the break-out I had while using it. This company preys on the low self-esteem and sheer hopefulness that acne sufferers have for finding a miracle cure. Rest assured, this isn't it and this company is very dishonest in its marketing tactics.

Pros:

Great info on website & great communication with company. Money-back guarantee with no time limit. They also have promotions and sometimes give free samples. The cleanser works very well and smells great (my opinion!). They even offer a stronger version if you need it. Products leaves skin clean, soft and is not overly drying. Previous products I have tried left my skin red and peeling.

Cons:

None? Just follow the directions. They are simple and clear. Acne products need time to show their effects, so be patient. Don't know if product bleaches towels b/c I only use white and I always bleach them anyway.

Money-back guarantee, so try it and see if it is for you. I am 39 years old (aren't I too old for this?!) and my acne was driving me crazy. Could not get rid of it. It would worsen once a month and start "way under the skin." Looked like little tumors. lol. Was skeptical this would work because hormones were obviously playing a large role. These products work very well for me. I do use the industrial strength version. I also use their day and night moisturizers and they do not cause me to breakout worse. Confession- I also use Retin A, but I used it for 2 years before I tried Carley's and it alone was not getting the job done and probably made redness/drying worse. My daughter is 13 and is starting to have a little acne. She also has sensitive skin and she has done really well with this cleanser and the moisturizers as well. I also like the mineral foundation, (they send samples), chapstick, and masks this company sells. The website on ebay is very informative and they are quick to ship and respond to any questions.

Pros:

cheap
huge bottle

Cons:

gave me more acne
feels grease

I wish I had read more reviews before purchasing this product. I had about five small pimples before I started using it and ended up with more than 10. I don't know if product is a scam or not because not everything works for everyone, but I know it doesn't work for me. READ ALL THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS BEFORE CONSIDERING BUYING.
April 6, 2011

Pros:

It works beautifully for me. Natural ingredients. I've been using Carley's for several years, and plan to keep using it forever. It's the only cleanser I will use on my face. The price is reasonable, so is shipping if you buy more than one product at a time. Free samples are nice, too.

Cons:

Bleaches out washcloths and towels, but easily avoided if you use white washcloths and towels with this. Like all other products, it doesn't work for everyone, and you have to follow the directions, and not use any other product with it. Your acne very well might get worse before it gets better when using Carley's. Be prepared and be patient.

Actually, I want to address the people who insist that the positive reviews about Carley's are phony. The thing is, Carley's works for some people and doesn't work for others. That's why there is a 100% money back guarantee from the company. If it were a scam, they wouldn't refund your money, and no one has accused Carley's of NOT refunding their money when they send the products back. I have left two other reviews here, and when you accuse us of sending fake reviews, you are insinuating that we're lying. I'm not. Yes, Carley's has oils in it. My hair stylist told me last week that I have beautiful skin, and asked me what I used. I told her about Carley's, and about the oils in it. She agreed that cleansers that dry ones skin out cause oily skin to pump out MORE oil to overcompensate for the drying. The oils in Carley's make skin not have to do that. Okay, my skin did get worse on Carley's before it got better. But, it DID get better -- my skin got to where I frequently get compliments on it. I'm still shocked by that, but happily so. If Carley's didn't work for you, that is truly unfortunate. I hope you find something that works. But, Carley's has worked for a LOT of people, so your experience is not the rule. Don't accuse us of writing fake reviews just because you're angry at the product. Your reviews saying our reviews are fake might scare someone away from using Carley's who might be helped by it. Yes, the owner of Carley's DOES ask us to write reviews here. He does not pay us to do so. He does not tell us what to write. He doesn't even check to see if we have written. We're not given free products to write. We have nothing to gain from writing positive reviews. We just want to tell people about this wonderful product. I wish Carley's had been around decades ago when I first needed it. But it's here now, and it works for me. It works well for others too, but not for everyon
