Pros:

It works!

Cons:

No major cons. The soap doesn't smell that great, but you get used to it.

I've been using the scrub and the soap for over a year. I do better with benzoyl peroxide-based products than anything else (salicylic acid does nothing for me), and I don't find BP too drying. I started with the regular strength scrub, but the results started to diminish, I switched to the Kick A** formula and have continued to have good results with it. My acne is mostly hormonal, and it's never completely gone, but the Clear & Smooth products keep it under control better than anything I've ever used. I especially love the soap, which leaves no residue at all and makes my skin feel wonderful. Highly recommended if you can tolerate benzoyl peroxide.

Pros:

I love the ease of use of this product! I keep it in the shower, along with an extra bar of the soap at the sink. No fuss, no muss! It works quite well. Clean smell, all natural, what more could I ask for?!

Cons:

I do still experience the occassional breakout but that seems to be at times that I don't follow the directions to a T.

I will be a repeat customer for life! My daughter is ten and I have her using the natural soap twice a day now. I hope that preventative measures will keep her from the scarring that I now have from years of acne that ran unchecked.

Pros:

The soap made my skin feel squeaky clean and I like that the ingredients are all natural.

Cons:

Within days of starting this product I had terrible cystic acne on my chin, which I never had before.

This seems to work for a lot of other people and I'm really disappointed that it did not work for me. I think the oils and shea butter clogged my pores something fierce. Although the website and the direction page say to keep using the products for a minimum of a month, I simply couldn't sit idly by and watch my chin get worse and worse, not with wedding season in full swing anyway. I switched back to Dan's regimen and am almost 100% clear.

Pros:

Non irritating
Makes my skin soft and glowing

Cons:

My skin is still oily as ever
I started getting large cystic breakouts along my jawline
Starting to get some on my forehead (never really did before)

I'm trying to be very patient with this because I've heard nothing but high praises for this product. I'm following the directions religiously and it just seems to be getting worse. I do realise that I've only been using it for a week and a bit, but shouldn't there be a slight improvement INSTEAD of it getting worse? Someone please reassure me. And also, what kind of makeup would you recommend using while doing this treatment? Maybe my makeup is making it worse.

Pros:

This stuff really works...I too tried evrything under the sun including detox,etc. And nothing really worked but carleys is truly a God-send.My skin looks amazing and if I do get a pimple it goes away quickly.

Cons:

None really but you must follow directions and change your washrag frequently. Oh yeah and don't use any other products on your skin because it makes carleys less effective.

I would never stop using this product. I introduced this product to everyone I know with troubled skin and they love it just the same. Thank you carley. We'll nevr stop using your products.

Pros:

Makes my skin really soft and non oily, cheap

Cons:

Right now its breaking me out horribly.

I have only been on this product for a week, but as of now the Kick *ss treatment is breaking me out terribly! I have bunch of little bumps all over my face that are just terrible. I dont know if its because i have stopped all of my other topical creams or what but as of now this is not working for me! But im thinking it just takes time...oh well.I really want it to work though,

Pros:

It works! I have occasional adult facial acne and body acne - I'm too old to be faffed with it, I really am and can't be bothered with the namby pamby stuff on sale over the counter. I want something that works and I want it to work fast. This does.

Cons:

None really. It takes the colour out of your clothes if you're not careful but it's a small price to pay. I don't care.

I'm sick and tired of having spots at my age - absolutely at the depths of fed up with it. This keeps my face, back, chest and arms spot free if I keep at it. When I stop using it, it comes back up again. I've recommended it to quite a few people and it's worked for all of them.

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!

I was fortunate to stumble across this product a couple of years ago while perusing eBay. Finally, something I could spend my money on that wasn't the kind of old, processed junk you find on the shelves of stores. This has helped my acne tremendously, and works much better than Proactiv or any other "acne treatment system" that I have spent tons of money on. I also appreciate that all ingredients are naturally derived rather than
