Pros:

Smells nice
Clears skin and leaves it softer

Cons:

None yet

I used this for one week and already i saw results. i wish that it had something to help the scarring but that's a different story. Overall it works for me and i have oily/combination skin and luckily it doesn't make skin oilier, maybe even a little dryer.

a bit too pricey

i just started this whole line and by far this is better than anything i have ever tried...i tryed pro active for about 5 yrs and it just stopped working. then i went to the derm office and they gave me clindamycin along with retin a what a disaster!!! it just did not work out!! then my cousin told ,e about this line and i gave it a try and right before my eyes it happened my face is almost fully clear. i brought the whole line the3 steps. kinda on the expensive side but def worth it!!!!

Pros:

soft skin. less breakouts

Cons:

expensive. i have to buy new tube every two weeks

guess it works well. i've been using it for few months now. i've been using better products to be honest, but since my dermatologist prescribed it to me, i have no choice but to use it.

Pros:

Doesn't make your skin feel or look shiny and/or greasy at all! But still gets rid of most dryness. Makes your skin look healthier.

Cons:

Doesn't seem to do much to stop acne.
Dries very quickly which makes it a bit hard to spread it all over your face.

Good to use during the day. But I would not use is all the time cause it won't stop acne. I pay 12,28 euro for it.

Pros:

This is one of the better face washes that I have used. Sometimes I use the gel, but if you have sensitive skin, you can opt for the cleansing foam. Saying that, LaRoche Posay is gentle overall. And it doesn't dry my skin out!

Cons:

Worked well but after using if for over a year, I think I'm somewhat immune now! Still leaves a nice fresh feeling though.

I'd reccommend anyone to try it!

Pros:

light weight, not greasy, feels fresh. Skin is less oily and more smooth. It really decreased my acne and prevented new zits from getting huge.

Cons:

Can't buy it in stores

This is by far the best product I have ever used, and I have used a lot! Pro-active, perscriptions, you name it I've tried it, and they all haven't worked for me. This product goes to work fast and starts to get rid of the acne that you have and is preventing new zits from forming. I still get the odd zit here and there but they are small and don't last long. It makes your skin feel fresh and clean and less oily. I wish everyone new about this product. I can't wait to try more of their products!!!
