If you're getting this, mix some moisturizer (preferably from the Daniel Kern store) and oil free sunblock and this product is perfect!

Pros:

Clears up acne quickly!

Cons:

Causes dry skin, but worth it!

I've been using this product for a few days and I've seen a dramatic difference. I've tried ProActiv and prescription medications, but this has been the best product so far.

Pros:

While I could still use this without allergic reactions, this product was great. It's the only thing that got rid of all the small bumps that were covering my forehead and basically the only product that gave me smooth skin. Works very quickly, too.

Cons:

Dries out skin, causes redness and apparently I've become allergic to it early this year, because when I started taking nasal medication the bumps came back, but using this product made me get horrible reactions and I can't use it anymore.

If you're not allergic to it and you don't overuse it, it's a brilliant product, and for some (like me) the only real solution to clear skin. Problem is that it's very strong and if you're allergic to it (also like me), you have to give up on it. This product is definitely worth trying, just be prepared for the possibility that it will cause a negative reaction to your skin (large scaly patches of redness).

Pros:

-Gets rid of the acne
-Doesnt bother my skin

Cons:

-Advised not to be exposed to the sun very long with it

I am 20 now and have been using this stuff for about a year now (i would have mild-moderate acne w/o it), and its still working for me. Im not sure how much longer i will have acne and have to use this stuff (i hope to hell i dont get adult acne) but I will stick with this product until it stops coming. I use this product daily and have had it lose some effectiveness after long periods of time so keep a backup product (i have another C&C prouduct that uses that acid that starts with an 's' when it i see some stuff propping up for a day or two. This product has kept me clear and all the signs of my old acne have almost all gone away. wish i found this stuff sooner- it has raised my self esteem and given me my confidence back!

Pros:

Seems to be drying out pimples. I have only been using this product for a few days. Skin seems clearer.

Cons:

Drying. Use a good lotion with it, or even vitamin E oil.

I have combination skin (some parts dry some parts oily). My skin is also very sensitive to products.I have been having really horrible deep pimples. Almost cystic like. I put this cream on them a few times in one day and it really seems to be drying them up. I wouldn't recommend putting it all over your face. Use it at night and then wash off in the morning. It seems to be working well. I don't know what its effects are for long term use though as I have only used it for a few days.
