Pros:

Cheap, Easy to use, Makes skin feel smooth

Cons:

Didn't work for me, Made me break-out severely

I struggle with abundant nodular cystic acne on my shoulders and jaw line. Other than that, my skin is usually fairly clear. I have been using Carley's for at least two months now, and I have not seen an improvement in my cystic acne. On top of that, I have now developed countless bumps (clogged pores). Now, I just hope they don't all erupt simultaneously. As far as I can tell, all this product does is clog pores.

Pros:

Cleans up your skin for good. Does not strip your skin. easy to use. just follow instructions. cleans up old product residue

Cons:

did not find it before. caution around colored fabrics - will bleach. Is not an immediate fix. takes time to clear the old problems.

does work. is not an immediate fix. must follow instructions. would recommend to all. very inexpensive product that does work. seller always packs shipping box super full for one shipping price!!! samples of other products are great also!!

Pros:

Doesn't dry out or irritate skin if used correctly, 5-10x cheaper than the other medications I was using before, easy and quick to use and you do not need to wear some nasty cream or lotion all day.

Cons:

Takes time. At first it made problem worse- but this was because I wasn't using a wash cloth after putting on the treatment and I often missed a day so I tried countering that by putting it on twice the next day. Not good - follow the directions.

If this product doesn't work for you it's because of 1 of 2 things. 1) You're doing it wrong. 2) You have extremely severe acne and you need to get on accutane or another strong acne medication. - Follow the directions EXACTLY. From my experience, heavy use of the soap = drier skin. This can be good or bad. Experiment with different amounts of soap and treatment and always use the wash cloth after putting on the treatment. After I got the correct amounts down I stopped getting acne almost instantly and within a few weeks I was completely clear! This product, normal or industrial strength should work for almost everyone. Just be sure to be patient, follow the instructions, and be disciplined to do vital things like taking showers after working out, etc and it will work for you.

Pros:

All Natural, chemical free

Cons:

A little expensive, but worth it.

I have been using Carley's for about six years. I have had acne prone skin since I was eight years old, I am 39 and still have mild acne. This product is by FAR the best I have ever used. I finally have convinced my teenage daughter to use it. Of course after trying every product available in the stores, and spending a bunch of wasted money, only to have dry, flaking skin, and continual out breaks. She loves it! We use the bar soap, day time moisturizer, the acne prone age defying moisturizer, and the kick _ss teen scrub. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE........and they always send free stuff with your shipment!

Pros:

Brilliant product - requires persistance and sticking to the instructions but it WILL help your skin. Looks natural and smells fresh and it is the only alternative to all the "miracel" products around full of chemicals.

Cons:

None so far

This not a "miracle" cure for your acne but it is a producct that will make a HUGE difference to your skin. Your acne will improve until you barely have spots and I have started to notice a decrease in the scars and marks I had. You MUST be focused about using this and give it a chance. If you follow the instructions and keep using it for a few weeks you will see how great it is and how much better your skin starts to feel and look. I have tried a lot of products out there - some work some don't. This is the best I have tried, the nicest to use and has the most realistic and comforting results so far. I live in Israel and I have never waited more than a week or so for it to arrive and it's always full of freebies. Try it if you want to start a skin regime for life.

Pros:

Great price - large bottle - last a long time!! WORKS!!

Cons:

Can be harsh - will / might break out your skin at first. Have to keep using.

I had horrible acne when I first tried this product! After 4 months I was nearly acne free. After 6 months I was completely acne free. I have been using this product for 8 years. I just placed my 5th re-order. That will also tell you how long it last. (I usually order 2 bottles sometimes 3 at a time) The one issue I have is I have tried to stop taking it and the acne comes back.

Pros:

One of the best products I have ever used. Cleared up skin within a few weeks. Skin not oily like it was after being on some regimens.

Cons:

Skin feels tight after use. Still haven't found the right moisturizer yet to go along with it.

Very good product. be patient with it. Might have a few pimples come up at first, but those will go away fairly quickly. Skin may feel tight if you have dry skin, but if you can find the right moisturizer, this product is perfect.

Pros:

This really does work. I only get the very odd breakout now if I am hormonal or ill with a virus or something. No longer have to pump myself full of antibiotics that don't really work. No need for any other topical applications.

Cons:

Can't buy in in England and therefore have to ship from the states.
Will stain dark coloured wash clothes and towels. Who cares, use white ones for your face.

I am about to place my third order for this. They send free soap with it which is brilliant in itself. I use this twice a day to wash my face - I do a double wash at night to really clean - then use the treatment scrub every morning in the shower. The one bar of soap lasts as long as the bottle of scrub which is about 4 or 5 months - bargain. They give a lifetime guarantee so even if you use the whole bottle, if it doesn't work return it for a full refund. You really have nothing to lose, because if you are like me you have tried everything out there including stuff that costs an absolute fortune. Please note that my costs include shipping to the UK. Their service is also excellent, they reply to all questions personally and give dedicated advice when needed. Really nice people.

Pros:

Light feel, natural scent, helps my face be moisturized AND blemish-free. It has also worked for my teenage daughters. We are all SOOOOO HAPPPPY!!! How could it be that the answer is so simple? High quality, NO irritants.

Cons:

NONE

I have had acne for 26 years. I've been on Minocin (2 yrs), Accutane (2ce- I quit the 2nd time -too drying), had cortisone shot into my face many times, chemical peels, and every acne treatment I found, plus tons of expensive face creams, in every combination and regimen I could think of. Vitamins, herbs, everything. I finally developed an allergy to Benzoyl Peroxide. I had pretty much given up when I read somewhere about how sometimes sensitive skin reacts in a way that mimics acne. Bingo! And, duh to the many drs. (I'm so mad). I bought Carley's. My 14 yr old girl used to break out, plus had red cheeks and lots of tiny pimples on her forehead and blkhds on her nose and chin. She also has excema. I thought she had rosacea, but put off drs due to my exp. We both have completely cleared up. It's amazing, I am so sold, and so mad that I wasted all those yrs and have the scars to prove it. I'm blond, bl eyes & fair, freckled skin. I am 52, and on Carley's 4 life! Bless

Pros:

Inexpensive, good customer service

Cons:

Made my skin break out into severe acne and rash

It works miracles for some, but I guess I wasn't one of the lucky ones. I suggest you try it, it may work for you and you get a refund if it doesn't.
