Pros:

how easy and well it works. i have tried (almost) everything under the sun to target and treat my adult acne. it even gets rid of "stress" induced pimples!

Cons:

need more products - shampoos, body washes, bring it on! =)

I cannot begin to thank you enough for your products...I have dealt with skin allergies most of my life and I never really though my teenage and adult acne had anything to do with SLS...I guess I was wrong! I have switched over to SLS-free shampoos and have even convinced my husband to do so as well. I look forward to continued success with your products. Thanks again, Melissa

Pros:

It's natural and simple to use

Cons:

Inconsistent advice from the company. Didn't work for me.

I've been using this product for 7 weeks and my face just keeps getting worse. I contacted the company and they gave me different options to try but mainly they told me to be patient. First they told me I wasn't using enough of the treatment. Then they told me I was using too much. No matter what suggestions I followed my acne which I would describe before using this treatment was moderate and now I would describe it as moderately severe. I had high hopes since there were so many great reviews. But didn't work for me. :(

Pros:

This works very well without drying out my skin.

Cons:

none

I like this product very well. I have been happy with everything I have tried. I especially like the foundation because the color looks very natural and I have a hard time finding a matching shade.

Pros:

Very affordable and lasts much longer than popular acne treatments. You get 4x the amount for your dollar.

Cons:

None. I will say that for the users who are breaking out more in the beginning, the same did happen to me, and I fixed that by using a 2 1/2% benzol peroxide treatment before their moisturizer. Worked Perfectly!

The products are natural without all the synthetic chemicals! My face has NEVER been better. This summer was the first time that I was able to swim in the pool without worrying that my makeup would wash off and reveal my acne! I have used it for over a year now and would never be without it. I used to rely on my mineral makeup for that healthy glow, and now after using this....I have it naturally! The customer service is second to none and the money back guarantee leaves you with nothing to lose! Shipping is lightning fast and you get a ton of free samples with every order! Thank You Steve, for bringing these wonderful products, and for giving me my life back! (Acne sufferer for 19 years and finally clear!)

Pros:

It makes me skin feel soft, and clean. Also, the tone of my skin is much nicer.

Cons:

My face is not clear yet.

I have been using this product for a month or so. The first two weeks my skin broke out really bad. I was also experiencing a really bad burning/painful rash like thing at first,tho that has since cleared up and gone away. I think it was just a reaction to such a strong product (i usually only have ever used Oxy Pads). I can't really tell if its working or not. The break out is not so bad now, it is only in the one spot that I always break out, along my jaw area, but it is taking a lot longer than usual to go away and I am getting really fed up. Other pimples have popped up but seem to go away almost over night. It's just this one area that is driving me crazy. The rest of my skin looks great! I almost don't need make up on the other areas of my face. The skin is soft and the tone is great.

Pros:

Affordable, not tested on animals, effective, great customer service. I love that everything is done in the shower so once you are finished, there is nothing else to apply or anything. I've had no problems with bleaching, which I did with Proactiv.

Cons:

For me, because I use it on my face, chest AND back, it obviously doesn't last as long. A bottle lasts me about a month so it costs the same as Proactiv did but it's still well worth it. Also, it took long to work for me (3 months) but it worked!

Let me start off by saying that this product definitely works BUT it is not a "quick fix". It took 3 months for the mild-moderate acne on my chest and back to clear up. I had been using Proactiv to treat it but it didn't seem to work so I switched to Carley's but I really had to be patient. I was still using Proactiv on my face (I had clear skin) but wanted to just use one product so I switched to Carley's for my face, too. As expected, I had an outbreak that lasted about 5-6 weeks, where I developed tons of tiny little pimples all over my forehead, my jawline, chin and nose. It was EXTREMELY frustrating but Steve explained to me why this happened and just asked that I be patient. I hung in there and it has now been about 3 months since I started it for my face and I am about 95% clear. It was really hard to stick with it but it was so worth it. Just remember to follow the directions EXACTLY or else it can delay the effectivenes. Don't give up if it takes long, IT WILL WORK!!!

Pros:

This stuff has been the only product that has worked for my daughter! She has tried the most popular (and expensive) brands and she's also been perscribed medicine from the doctor. this tops it all!

Cons:

I don't have any cons.

If you are looking to try something new for acne, I would definitely give Carley's a try. It's inexpensive and the bottle is huge and lasts for months. Plus you get a free soap. The soap is wonderful. My daughter almost panics when she gets near the bottom of her bottle. She's in her mid teens and this has changed her confindence immensely for the better. I've used it myself, and I don't have acne, but it left my skin feeling refreshed and smooth. I love it too, but I'm not allowed to touch hers. I have to get my own. I have tried and ordered several of their producst. All have been a wonderfully positive experience and the company is second to none in the service department. Higly recommended!!

Pros:

its the best product i have truly tried, ever.

Cons:

for some people, like me...it took many weeks to kick in (7 to be exact) and random spurts of breakouts here and there. eventually your skin works with it and it becomes the miracle worker everyone has been talking about.

carly's site sounded true and so did there uncensored feedback on ebay, but how will you know forsure? i know what your thinking as you read this....."this proably isnt a real person. its probably fake feedback to make the product soundgood" wrong. this product speaks for itself and has changed my life. im sure it will for you to. just remember.....to stay loyal to it. the moment you stop using it and give up is the day all hell breaks loose and you get zits worse then before. so keep on it and im sure your results will be breathtaking as it was to me and thousands of other people to. bottom line...this product is the best and is worth every cheap penny.

Pros:

Clears up my skin in an amazing way. And it's affordable. The time that I did stop using it, you could tell within a week because I started breaking out again. Great consistency, scent & very complimentary with the other Carley's products. LOVE it!

Cons:

None whatsoever.

I've been using this product for several years. I am so glad that I ran across it on ebay...it was a total blessing. I'm in my mid-30's, and for some reason still have breakouts...how annoying. But anyway, this stuff really works great. I also absolutely loooove the soap that comes with it. I buy that separately, along with the day creme & night creme, which I also cannot live without, by the way. And you can bet that I will absolutely buy this product for my step-son (who just turned 15) when he starts to need it. I wish I had this product available when I was a teenager!! It would have made high school a lot more bearable! Thanks for a GREAT product!!!!!!
