not for me
I tried this product before finding my current regimen, and it didn't work for me at all. I found the scrub to be far too irritating for my skin - it just broke me out more.

Pros:

None

Cons:

It's a long process to wash your face every morning, blocked pores, caused more acne in places where i didn't have acne before (chin, forehead)

I know this works for a LOT of people, but it didn't work for me. I followed the directions perfectly for over two months and didnt work. I switched back to my prescription 10% BP wash and I can already tell it's getting better. The reason I switched was because I wanted to use something more natural and this had such great reviews. Best of luck if you try it, it may work wonders for you.

Pros:

Cleared up my little pimples, they resembled blackheads but more bumpy. Good customer service. Fast Shipping. Free samples. Good price.

Cons:

Cystic acne spread, I just had it on my chin area, and it spread upwards towards my cheeks and in between my eyebrows, I have huge cystic pimples all bunched up together.

Okay, I'm not sure if it was the bar of soap or the treatment bottle that cleared up my blackhead like pimples. And I'm also not sure which caused my HUGE pimples to spread. My acne got so bad, SO FAST, as a result I am suffering from swollen lymph nodes. I'm not sure if my skin is just purging itself, getting worse, before it can get better, but I've never been so depressed in my entire life. I seriously cry myself to sleep, if not I cry all day. I've been hiding for 2 months in my room. I went to see a Dr. yesterday and she prescribed Tetracyclin & Differin to me. Hopefully it works. I was on Minocyclin & Differin in 2008 and worked wonders until I stopped using it out of pure laziness. Anyways, I don't know if I should continue to use the benzoyl peroxide treatment in the morning? Maybe I shouldn't have bought Carley's strongest bottle? Please message if you guys have any advice or similar experience. Thank you!

Pros:

-Fast customer support
-Timely shipping and replies
-All natural
-Generous bottles and samples

Cons:

-Broke me out worse than before
-Lengthy, painful regimen
-Use of washcloths daily
-Two stop washing process in morning, one step at night

This product did not personally work for me, but I still respect their product and think they have a wonderful thing going. While customer support was fast, I was always treated rudely and poorly. I was accused of giving up and was harassed all because I sent an e-mail asking if I was doing it wrong. I have pustules, and they told me to use a washcloth to "exfoliate" every morning and I showed concern because that is basically just like popping a pustule which can result in hyperpigmentation and scarring and they assured me this wouldn't happen but here I am, with hyperpigmentation and scarring from the regimen. Overall, a lot of people have/will have success with this product. I think the product is good, although it didn't personally work for me, and you should definitely give it a try if you are debating it. I am now using a dermatologist prescribed cleanser that is working wonders for me but I wish Carley's and anyone else who uses them the best of luck!

Pros:

Inexpensive, good customer service

Cons:

Made my skin break out into severe acne and rash

It works miracles for some, but I guess I wasn't one of the lucky ones. I suggest you try it, it may work for you and you get a refund if it doesn't.

Pros:

Makes skin smoother and softer.

Cons:

-A pain to use: Showers take a long time using the product and you have to take a shower everyday.
-Runs out quickly when using it for body acne, so you keep having to buy more.

This was so frustrating. I used the product for 3-4 months without much results. I have terrible acne on my back. At first it seemed to be helping and I decided to switch to the industrial strength, hoping it would work even better. Nope. I continued to break out. It was really disappointing because I saw all the great reviews and thought this would finally be the solution to my acne. Now, I'm just using the midnight and daily moisturizers which are very nice, but I still have acne.
