Pros:

doesn't break out
not drying
prevents acne, somewhat

Cons:

doesn't help much
not enough salicylic acid

While this product doesn't do much in clearing up acne, it does help prevent it. It's also hydrating, and isn't heavy at all.

nice smell
isnt greasy
easy to use
doesnt burn

weak topical treatment

works great for the price, but is really only for people with light acne not very strong but i love that after i put it on it doesnt make my skin oily!

smells nice, only acne topical product that hasn't really dried my skin out, leaves skin soft to touch..

at some times it gave me even more pimples, i would put it on at night, and wake up with even more pimples i started with.

this product was very "iffy" for me... the first time i tried it it worked great, but i also used it with a combo of other products... then i stoped using it bc i needed more of a treatment not a lotion for my acne. but when my skin was starting to get dry again i used it again and broke me out. im my opinion this is for people with light, moderate acne and not the kind i have which is fairly moderate. i would recommend this to people with mild acne

Good for spot treatment and getting rid of smaller pimples.

Doesn't work for larger (cystic) pimples.
Doesn't get rid of clogged pores.
It is a little drying (even though I have oily skin).

If you have one or two pimples that you are trying to get rid of a few days before an important event, this is good for that occasion. However, I would definitely recommend sticking with the Regimen and AHA+ to get rid of acne on your T-zone and cheeks like I have.

Love the smell.
Love how it cleans my skin.

I wish it exfoliated my skin.
Wish it cured my acne. :)

Cleans really well. It didn't necessarily cure my acne, but it helped with the cleansing.

Nice, fresh scent.

It does have a waxy consistency.
Made me break out.

The first two days on this 3 in 1 system were great. My skin was smoother and less red. However upon day 3 I noticed I was getting these small bumps on my temples and below my jaw line. Luckily you couldn't see them... but I could feel them. I stopped using the products, went back to Dan's Regimen, and the bumps have gone away. I've never had an issue with salicylic acid products before, but this one definitely did not agree with my skin.
