Carley's : Clear and Smooth Skin Treatment

I referred to the "Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients" and learned a couple of things about the harmful chemical, benzoyl peroxide. BENZOYL PEROXIDE is a bleaching and drying agent used in cosmetics. It is toxic by inhalation. It is a skin allergen and irritant.... The EU and Canada use this ingredient in nail products, but recommend avoiding its usage in skin products. Because of my strong, adverse reaction to this products and the information I found (above) I will discontinue use of this product. I am concerned that it is advertised as a natural product, yet contains a harmful and toxic active ingredient. I urge anyone considering trying out this product to first research the active ingredient.

I was so hopeful after reading all the wonderful reviews, however the product did not work well for me. I have very oily skin and am prone to breakouts(sometimes cystic), along my cheeks, jawline and chin. When I first began using Carley's, my skin brokeout worse than before I started. I also began to get tiny pimple bumps on my forehead (which I usually do not have). I continued to us it thinking that it may be my skin purging from the use of a new product. After 3 weeks, my skin was a little bit better from the initial breakout, however still worse than prior to using the product. After 3 months, my skin has not gotten any better so I have stopped using it. I am now using the rest of the bottle as a body scrub so I do not waste it. I think it is worth a try for those looking for an acne solution since it is not too expensive. However, it does not work for everyone.

Alright so i've been waiting to review this product for a while, and i think i've reached my breaking point... I switched over from dan's regime to this... its been about 2 weeks, at first i thought it was working, but when i hit week one, i realized my acne was just getting worse. I know it says to give it 2-6 weeks, but i realized i don't want to be so heavily reliant on a product, especially on my body acne...thats more subjective. I'm a little disappointed, but i'm goign to keep using this just cause i'm not sure what my next move is going to be... i'm just really tired of having acne and having to put on products, i just want normal skin that i don't have to be so cautious about... accutane is actually in consideration even though i have light-moderate acne... but its light-moderate all over my body so i guess its reasonable... if my acne gets better since i'm continuing the use of this product i'll put up a better review.. but for now i'm in the middle... i jus tdont think its worth having my acne get worse if i know its not going to be gone forever

After going into a state of depression, I saw a dermatologist, and started to clear up in time, only with the continuation of his treatment. I still have residual effects from Clear & Smooth that will take a while to fade. If you're a true risk taker, then go for it! But also be prepared for the worst!! This has made me gun-shy of ever ordering acne products online again. I have a hard time believing all the testimonials listed. BEWARE!!

I ´ve been following this treatment as it ´s supposed to. No cheating whatsover. But, unfortunatelly I just felt a little relief during the first 2 weeks. After that my skin got really bad. I new this would happen at the beginning, but after going through it for over 4 months I was "forced" to give it up. I do not consider taking accutane, but BP has always worked fine for me, no real cure though... On the other hand, the natural soap is great. I ´ve been using it for the same period and I feel really confortable with it. No drying and my skin looks balanced. Anyway, I ´ve just started a new mix of natural soap and BP 5%. I hope I get it under the control I ´ve been looking for. Good luck for all of us!

I wanted this product to work for me so bad, because of all the great reviews and it is a natural product, but unfortunately I think I was one of the 1% that it does not work for. I used it for 8 weeks and at week 6 I think every pore on my face was clogged. My face has never been that bad. It was not getting better but worse every day. I was so embarassed to go out and I always had to cake on the makeup when I did. I now am going to see a dermatologist to see if I can get my face back to just having light acne. I would give it a try because of the price and the refund guarantee.

I'm 18 and I first started off with the formula for adult acne. I was convinced that this stuff would work from reading this guys feedback on eBay, but this stuff actually doesn't work. Well it doesn't work for me. I have used the adult formula for over a month, and right before I received the product, my skin cleared. But when I started using this stuff, boom! Another breakout! So I'm giving it 1 more shot, but this time I bought the industrial strength formula for teen acne. If it still doesn't work, NEGATIVE feedback for them.
