Pros:

-love the smell.
-it's amazing! really works!

Cons:

It's a little spendy however, so worth the price

I have been using BB for 2 months now. I broke out in acne (ladies, i'm sure you can relate) at that time of the month, it was all over my chin and cheeks and would last about 2 weeks. It was so annoying! I tried everything, I was a firm believer of proactive and used it as well, and i loved proactive, but one day i was sitting at home and a commercial came on for BB i decided to give it a try, on the back of the bottle it states, "using other topical medications at the same time or immediately following this product may cause irritation OR DRYNESS" so with this said i would like to point out that the other reviewers stated they were using other things while BB. I for one stopped immediately using proactive and decided to just try BB. I bought the entire package, and my face immediately felt moisturized and clean. it felt tingly and clean, and the spot treatment burns a little when you first put it on but it goes away and i immediately felt like it was working it's magic, and follow that by the lotion and it truly is magic. I no longer use proactive, i am hooked. and, when it's that time of the month, i get a tiny bump and it doesn't fully develop it's gone within a day. I've recommended this to friends and they have told me the same thing. I will never use anything else. It's amazing! and like i told my friends....everyone should at least try it. but, if you're going to use it follow the directions and don't use other medications while using this, you can always go back to them if this doesn't work for you, AND if you're gonna spend the money on it might as well get the whole package. it's well worth it!

Pros:

+Makes my skin feel clean and healthy
+Is all natural and made out of mostly organic materials.
+I love all Burts Bee's products.
+I bet this would work well for anyone with moderate to very light acne.

Cons:

- I don't think it has really helped my acne, that might be because I am getting in the middle of my teen years.
- The spot treatment might not be the best smell for everyone.

I have combo skin. This means that it's oily by/on my nose, forhead, and chin. But my cheeks are perfect. I tried Proactive when I was 12 and 13, it worked okay, but this year I changed to this. (2010) Now I have a lot more small small pimples on my forhead, but I can cover it up with my bangs. Maybe it's because I HAVE bangs but I'm not sure. I might need to give it more time. I stuck to my regiment everyday though. I also took ice cubes and put them in a towel, and hold it to the zits. (That really helps.) Here was my regiment: Morning- Wash my face with warm water, pat dry with a clean towel. Put a dime sized amount of the Burts Bees Cleanser on my hand, and gently rub all over my face in circles. Then I would wash it off in the shower, and put on the Burts Bees Toner on a cotton pad and apply in circles on my face. Then the Mosturizer apply in circles with my fingertips on my face. With a Q-Tip, put the spot treatment on my zits, then with the blemish stick I would rub on them over the spot treatment. I did this in the morning and night every day. And 2-3 times a week i would do the scrub. I really hope it works. Maybe I should try Nuetrogena, or their Skin ID

Pros:

I like the smell and the fact that it is natural and organic. I have sensitive body systems and was hoping that natural meant safer and better...

Cons:

I have been using the lotion and the blemish stick for about a week and have the worst breakout I have had in a very long time.

I came on here to see if the breakout was one of those one-time "clear it all" kind of things, but see that many who did experience a break out continue to with this product. May keep the rest for non-face acne, but as for my face I'll go back to clean and clear.

Pros:

- clear my stubborn active ones and dead skin started peeling off
- seem lightening up my redness
- Love the smell myself

Cons:

- smell can be nice but rather STRONG for those who doesn't feel comfortable w aroma
- awaiting results on my old scars
- problem w applying as seem like all absorbing

Background - use jap cheap brand for clean, toner n moisturiser + 1 Stridex Pad per day I have very oily and acne prone skin Referring to Acne Solutions Spot Treatment, it works pretty well on my oily skin even this product are like essential oil, but this is winter in sydney now so need to see if this still works fine on summer time. It can get pretty exensive as i guess most oil has been abosrbed on my hand before applying on my face and wonder how long a 7.5ml bottle lasts, anyone? (each bottle costs AUD20)

Pros:

I like that there are no phthalates or parabens in Burts Bees products.

Cons:

Salicylic acid stuff has strong chemical smell. Spot treatment smells like licorice. VERY strange combination.
I did not find this stuff effective at all.
EXPENSIVE.

I was really excited about this product reading all the reviews, but a month's use did not make any difference to me. I was not using the cleanser; I used my regular cleanser, then used the spot treatment and Burts Bees salicylic acid day lotion. Although it didn't make anything worse, I saw no effect from the spot treatment and the salicylic acid did not seem to have the advertised effect on redness. Plus, this stuff is EXPENSIVE. I suspect the only benefit of the spot treatment is to disinfect the area around the pimple before squeezing, and you can use rubbing alcohol for that.

Pros:

-had a nice smell

Cons:

-made me break out worse than I had in some time (just whiteheads)
-didn't make my face feel clean

I've struggled with acne for a few years now. I had used Noxzema and found it wonderful, and then decided to move on to another cleanser once I thought my skin had adjusted and that the acne days were behind me. Not so. I used Burt's "Radiance" facial cleanser, and it made me break out horribly. My face has been much worse than it has in the past six months or so. I recommend all of Burt's other products (lip balm, body wash, etc.), but I don't know how they made this product so bad!

Pros:

dont have as many pimples as before
makes skin feel fresh
is a full system

Cons:

spot treatment is running out fast but that could be my fault

Now its been about a week of using this product, and my skin has improved The only thing is im a really bad picker and the only big pimples that seem to still be there are the 4 that i picked at which is my fault, and majority of all the little things are barely there anymore which showed that the product is working, the box says give us 2 weeks so ill do another review at the end of these 2 weeks, so i have to say im very glad with the results so far!

Pros:

I've had acne since puberty (28 now) and I've tried it all. Topical Prescriptions, Oral prescriptions, Proactiv, and half of the drug store aisle, but I have never had success like I have had with this product. I use the gel cleanser and moisterizer everyday; the scrub when I am done with the gym, and the spot treatment occasionally. Not only is my skin clear for the first time in my life, but it now glows with health (perhaps its the all natural thing -I am not really into that, just a bonu

Cons:

The scrub leaves a funny residue immediately after use. It made me nervous the first time I tried it, but the product works great. The spot treatment is a liquid which was different. The smell is fresh but it takes some getting used to.

I am now clear and GLOWING for the first time in my life. I look so much healthier. I've lurked on this site for over a year researching products to get my acne under control, and this is the first product that has made me feel the need to share my success. Try It. My full regimen: AM: Drink hot lemon water. Burt's Bees Gel Cleanser and moisterizer, spot treatment if needed (rarely, this stuff is awesome). PM (Spring, Summer, Fall): Burt's Bees Gel Cleanser and either their moisterizer or the Neutrogena Anti Aging / Anti Blemish Clear Up Cream, then if needed Clearasil Adult Acne Sulfer treatment on spots. PM (Winter): Neutrogena Anti Aging / Anti Blemish Scrub and Clear Up Cream. Clearasil Adult Acne Sulfer treatment on spots. I only use Neutrogena in winter (and occasionally in other seasons) because the AHA in the cleanser is too harsh with the sun for my fair, fair skin.
