Carley's : Clear and Smooth Skin Treatment

I tried Carley's because there are so many great reviews for it here and I was confident that it may be what I have been looking for. It didn't work for me. I have very sensitive skin and it just made my skin irritated and broke me out in tiny bumps all over the place. I spoke to customer service about every problem I encountered (very nice and helpful) but Steve said my skin was sensitive because of all of the other products I have used on it, so I stuck with the program exactly. I did this for three months and then finally threw in the towel (or washcloth). I also tried extra strength which really did a number on my skin. I will say that they did everything possible to make this work for me and if you are one of those that this product works for, you are fortunate because customer service is top notch. I will however continue to use their daytime moisturizer and possibly the natural soap (sans washcloth, which has been slowly putting my skin back to normal).

well i truly tried this for abour 3 months and all i can say was that it makes your skin smooth but does not clear it. it has left a tremendous amount of scars for me. i do however have to say that it was the scrubbing with the washcloth and the natural soap that really bothered my face on op of BP in the product. I do like their moisturizers! they do wonders and i will continue to buy them but for acne no. i also ordered the tea tree version. I do not recommend both cleansers for sensitve skin. It just destroys the skin. I believe that the natural soap strips too much of the skin as well. i have pictures and the "progress" of the products i will update soon my recommendation: the lotions are great! i do love their lotions. The regime- not for me. and also they have the best customer service of a company that i have ever came in contact with.

This was a so-so facial cleanser. But nothing to write home about. A touch more gentle than your usual benzoyl peroxide (BP) product. But definitely doesn't cut the ice when it comes to being an worthwhile acne treatment. Nothing in the way of novel ingredients, so it's unsurprising.

This particular product actually made my skin worse. I really wanted it to work, I stuck with it for several months, and tried many of their products. Unfortunately, all it did was irritate my skin more and give me several new breakouts and red marks. Their other products were wonderful, but I don't how it could NOT irritate someone's skin with the scrubbing daily...I was under the impression this actually spread bacteria and caused more inflammed and angry breakouts...which is what it seemed to do for me. Your skin can take about 6 weeks to turn over, but my esthetician says if you don't see ANY improvement at that point with a product, you're probably not going to see any. I stuck with it for about 3-4 months before giving up. Many of the reviews out there do seem to sound the same, and if they are real people writing them-it's awesome that this worked for them. Unfortunately it didn't work for me. Fortunately, the company has very good customer service in answering questions and working out refunds with you. They stand by their product, which is always very important.

I tried to stick with it because I refused to give up, followed the directions exactly. I stayed in close contact with Steve, the founder/owner, and told him that my face was getting worse and worse each day and that it was swollen and painful. I used the regular stuff for 3 months, he told me it'd clear up after 2. He talked me through it and even sent me a free bottle of the stronger teen formula, I used it for 2 months but that made my face a worse red, swollen, painful mess. Before this, my acne was moderate, it was finally clearing up after years of despair...I just tried this stuff to get rid of my persistent acne and scars. My face is barely going back to it's pre-Carley's state after going back to the acne.org regimen. It might work for some, but for me it made for the worst 5 Summer months ever, I liked their foundation, but I couldn't leave home without it because I looked like a burn victim, seriously.

My acne is worse than ever after 5 weeks of use - and after feeling even more depressed and embarrassed about my acne I finally gave up on this and am now back on BP.

It sucks the thing that worked for me was Acnexus and it's $25. A day on the Internet turned into a before and after!!!!

First week of using Carley's, my skin was radiant, even my pores become smaller. The second weeks, my face developed painful cystic acne, esp around upper lips and chin area. It's really BAD. A lot of huge and painful cystic acnes. I had light hormonal acne and I was hoping this product would work for me. I always used Carley's correctly. I never drink or smoking. What should I do? I even don't want to go outside with these bumps on my face.

A disappointment!

I tried and tried this product for almost two years, but no matter what it never cleared me up 100%. Irritation alone can aggravate acne, and that's exactly what this scrub does. They have a great idea that chemicals and allergies can cause acne, but so can scrubbing it! That's why it has made some people's acne worse; it was way too harsh for their skin. I have tried everything (proactive, herbal supplements, differin, anti-biotics, birth control, that stupid "cure your acne in 3 days" etc.), but I have finally found something that works. The Acne.org's Regimen. I've been using it for 6 months, and I've been 100% CLEAR (not one pimple) for about 4 months. However, Carley's Clear and Smooth company is good on their guarantee, so don't be afraid to try it. I LOVE their soap and moisturizer, and I use them with the acne.org regimen. Although they have a great philosophy on amazing natural products for low costs, this acne treatment won't work for everyone. BUT the Acne.org Regimen wil
