Pros:

Affordable, lasts forever (for me at least), actually works.

Cons:

Smells a little strange at first and feels really rough, but you get used to it

This is the first thing I've tried away from the dermatologist and it works better than anything they ever gave me. ... my skin is clearer than it's ever been, even on Accutane. I wash my face twice a day with the bar of soap and use the Kick A$$ scrub about every three days, just because that's how much it takes for it to work for me, so why waste it? I've had one bottle and one bar of soap since Christmas and I've used maybe one eighth of the bottle and one fourth of the soap. It only takes a tiny smear from the bar to work up a good lather and only a quarter sized drop of the scrub.

THE BEST PRODUCT I HAVE EVER USED ON MY ACNE COVERED FACE (and I've had acne for 15 years)
I tried Accutane when I was 14 and it cleared up my skin but after a couple of years i begun to break out again. I went on the pill but it made very moody and emotionally unstable. I've tried every chemist product you can think of, I used proactive and that actually worked for me but while travelling I lost the bottle and my skin broke out worst then ever, when I finally got a new bottle it had no effect on my acne and actually made it worst. Spiralactlone did nothing but give me slight heart palpitations and antibiotics did nothing. I've tried estroblock and natural hormone supplements. Liver supplements. I've washed my face with oils and also tried not washing it at all. I've watched million of YouTube videos and follow instagram pages. I'm 27, how is this normal??? I started Carleys Clean and Clear a week ago and I can already tell the difference!!!! I will be sure to keep everyone update. TRY IT!!! WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOOSE? They sent me all these free samples as well and all have worked wonders on my skin. I would stay at homes on weekends because of my skin. I still Have scaring but now I can have makeup on without the lumps and bumps. This is just wonderful!!! X

noooo
This was just not for me. When I started the Carley's cleanser for about a month and a half, my skin went crazy and It gave me these HUGE cystic acnes on new spots that didn't have acne before. I still used it for about 3 months hoping to see some results, but guess what. Now I'm left with ugly cysts all over my face and neck and chest.

Pros:

it works for me, I'm nearly 40 (!!) and still get acne..I think I have intolerance to SLS, but have general skin sensitivity too

Cons:

the bleaching of towels and sometimes the necks of clothes if I don't wash off thoroughly. I purposely won't wear black immediately afterwards just in case.

I've had acne for around 20 years, some periods better than others. I've tried everything in that time including Quinoderm, BP products, Eryacne (erthyromycin), Isotrexin, oral antibiotics...everything...and recently the regimen acne.org products too... So the bottom line, for me anyway, is that Carley's works the best of any of the above. I have however noticed that if I use the soap that is recommended as well then I still get a breakout sometimes so I don't use it now and get much better results, but that's just me. The next best product I have tried is the acne.org stuff, but I would say, for me anyway, this is only around 65% as effective as Carley's. I will be using this stuff as long as they keep making it.

Pros:

Keeps skin clear!!

Cons:

None!!

I switched from Carley's to Murad acne complex kit about 3 months ago... Just to see if I could see a dramatic difference in my skin I am worried about anti-aging... Well I ended up going from clear skin to having severe acne just one week after using murad... I stuck it out for the 2 months as suggested ... Not leaving the house unless absolutely necessary.. I was mortified... I decided to return the product... And immediately went back to Carley's after just one week all the major sores were gone and everything was pretty much clear again in just 2 weeks... So as far as anti-aging I scheduled a consult at my plastic surgeon for some Botox and juvederm and will continue to use Carley's :)

Pros:

I love this product. It is working great for me (42) my son (21) and my daughter (11). I have had acne all my life and this is the ONLY product that works for me. I have tried everything except Accutane (which i refuse to use due to the side effects) and Carly's Clean and Clear works. I wish I had this product 20 years ago. Works on bad acne and mild acne and also washes aways acne scars and minizes pours

Cons:

At first my skin was irritated when i used the wash rag to wipe off the product. After a couple weeks, it was no longer an issue

USE THIS PRODUCT!!!! you will not be disappointed. It is worth every penny. The customer service is awesome, they send you extra products to try out at no cost.

Pros:

Company was easy to work with and gave a no-hassle return.

Cons:

In our case, the products totally worsened my poor 12 year old's mild-moderate facial acne, to the point that it's now 6 months later and although we have finally cleared up her face using antibiotics and paraben-free cleansers, she still has scars. I feel horrible for having had her try Carley's.

Be careful. If this product worsens your skin, STOP IMMEDIATELY. Don't wait until you are scarred.

Pros:

I started in dec 2009 and was clear after a month or 4-5, combined with a milk- and wheatfree diet. I have been using it ever since! I have very pale sensitive skin that used to get very red with other products. It draw the attention even more than the acne itself. But my skin accepts this product.

Cons:

It takes more time than to just use soap(you need a clean wash cloth every day to take the product off after 30 sec), but..

totally worth the "trouble"!!! And my very sensitive skin

Pros:

the ONLY product that's ever worked consistantly for me, and I've tried every otc(over the counter) and prescription out there with the exeption of accutane. and I strongly advise that nobody use acutane because of the risk of side effects such as crones dissease.

Cons:

I don't know if this qualifies as a con, but nothing actually cures acne. you will have to use this product regularly in order to keep your acne from coming back, but after using the "jump start method" it dosen't take as much of this product to get the same results. so I guess this is actually a pro!

THIS IS AWESOME STUFF! after 30+ years of suffering the humilliation of looking like the goalie for the dart team, I can proudly show my face in public. people without acne just don't know how awful it feels to look in the mirror and see your face full of huge painfull red boils. society treats people with acne like we're dirty, like we live on french fries and chocolate bars. I started getting acne from wrestling in school. acne is caused by staff bacteria, as I understand. that's why antbiotics help clear it up, but for some people it just keeps coming back. Well.... this is the answer to my prayers. This product literaly gave me my life back! I'm in sales now, 'cause I'm not embarassed of my skin. I have no problem getting a date, I don't hide when people get their camera out, I have a new level of confidence like I've never had when I had a face full of huge welts. forget clearacil, forget proactive, forget all otc products , this is it! the only product you'll ever need to control your acne. I've never endorsed another acne product in my lfe, because this is the only one that has really done what they say it will do. just follow the directions on the web site, and you'll see for yourself. They didn't pay me to write this, like they pay people to do T.V. comercials. They're fake! They put fake zits on with makeup for the "before" photos and wash the makeup off for the "after" ones.This is the real deal, I tried this stuff figuring I had nothing to lose. I am so happy that I did, and if you try this stuff, you'll be the next person writing a revew like this one. the first bottle of kick *ss treatment lasted a month, but after that it now lasts twice as long 'cause I only need to use half as much to get the same results. THANK YOU STEVE!
