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:

First and only product that has consistently been able to control my acne (which I have had for almost 20 years)/ My skin looks good and feels soft.

Cons:

None other than it may bleach your clothes if you are not careful whre you put the used washcloth...

Love the skincare range including the moisturisers. I have been using Carlys productes for 2 years now and while my skin is not perfect it is better than it has been with ANY other product including very expnsive ones.

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:

Works with perfection. I started with the weaker product and used it for
about a month until my skin adjusted and then I moved on to the industrial strength. I have been using it for 3 years now (along with the Carley's clear and smooth soap and other products). It keeps my face clear of acne.

Cons:

NONE

The bottom line is that you have to give any acne treatment product time. I saw a reduction in acne in the first couple months but after a year is when I noticed really good results.

Pros:

The acne product kept my acne under control. Easy to use since it's scrubbing during shower time and use once a day only. After using the acne product, I followed up with the regeneration sea buckthorn moisturizer every night. My skin is now soft and smooth!

Cons:

None

Use it! The best acne product I have used so far!

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:

i love this product! I am a 54 year old woman who has had problems with bumps and breakouts my whole life, and I discovered this product about 10 years ago, and i now have skin worthy of an ivory soap girl! An old girl, yeah, but clear and healthy. i think i've finally gotten my daughters to give up all the packaged chemically infused products and switch...a VERY smart move!

Cons:

None...although I didn't care for the shampoo.

A simple, healthy alternative to the heavily marketed "cures" out there...and this one works! And besides, it feels good to support a truly "home grown" business!

Pros:

There are a lot of products out there of which my daughter has tried many but for the money this works the best long term. I don't think anything out there is a cure for acne but this at least controls it. We have been using this for approximately 4 years and wouldn't be without it! Thank you Carley's!!

Cons:

None

Try it!!

Pros:

It works!!! And it works fast! I've had clear skin for years now!

Cons:

I don't have any cons with these products. They ship really fast!

These products have kept my skin clear for about 6 years now. I even sleep with my makeup on most nights. I don't even use the product according to the instructions (twice a day) and it still keeps my skin blemish free! I've tried it all, from cheap to expensive. The only other thing that worked to keep my skin clear were pills from my dermatologist. Haven't needed those in a long time thanks to these products! I'll always buy this, I hope it never discontinues!
