Pros:

It has cleared up about 97% of my acne, but my dark marks are super visible (the toner doesn't really work).

Pros:

- Personally love the kind of herbal smell
- Worked so fast
- Not drying, but not oily either
- Way fewer steps than proactive and some other systems
- Exfoliating beads in cleanser
- Don't need a lot of each product/lasts a long time
- Pretty cheap

Cons:

- Cleanser doesn't foam or lather which makes it impossible to use with a washcloth, but it gets rid of acne so who cares? lol
- Doesn't clear old scars

First I think another reviewer described a different combination of products than my kit has for some reason. Mine came with a 1.5% salicylic acid cleanser, alcohol-free acne toner, and 3% benzoyl peroxide lotion that doubles as a spot treatment. I had some mild success with some of the Clean and Clear brand products and kits, but nothing to cheer about. I decided to try this when one of my cheeks was broken out for probably two months in that painful, swollen, zits on top of zits way that you just cannot hide and my Clean and Clear just wasn't cutting it. After starting this kit it was all gone in 3 days! I was practically screaming jumping up and down in my bathroom! My skin is touchable and soft now, and I'm not afraid I'll break out if I do touch it because I know this stuff has got my back. My face doesn't hurt anymore and isn't oily like it used to be. Also good to note, I switched to only using Physicians Formula makeup about the same time as I started this cleanser (because it is supposed to be good for acne prone skin). I'm honestly not sure how much that could have to do with the effectiveness this kit has had for me.

Pros:

-started clearing my breakouts in the first 2 days
-makes my skin feel clean
-simple to use
-pretty cheap
-doesn't over dry my skin
-if u don't use it u might start breaking out again

Cons:

-consistency of products can feel weird
-moisturizer might not moustirize enough for dry skin

I've tried a number of things(Neutrogena,Clearasil,Biore,Olay,Clean and Clear, etc) nothing seemed to work I was getting frustrated and was considering proactive. I tried this and was skeptical but in just the first two days I stopped breaking out in between my eyebrows and forehead! I've had for a week and my skin has never looked better(: I have combination skin.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Smells awful, dry skin

I will never buy again, it smelled awful, but I used it for awhile so my skin would get used to the product and hopefully work. What a waste of time that was, I feel like it's the reason my skin is so dry now, it made my acne worse, made my face look all flaky, and now I'm so nervous about trying products.

Pros:

+ Perfect for sensitive skin
+ Controls acne without overdrying
+ Simple to use
+ Fragrance-free
+ Paraben-free
+ Enriched with valuable natural extracts that nourish the skin additionally

Cons:

- Not available in Europe, which makes it a bit expensive to order and takes a while to get.

I live in Germany and have been searching for a proper acne system for many years. Last September I found AcneFree in amazon and first ordered the sensitive kit (but the old one with salicylic acid and the terminator) and did not get very good results. Then I tried the classic orange version which worked pretty well but was a bit harsh for me because my face often looked red if I used it twice a day. Last month I saw the innovated 3-step formula for sensitive skin, carefully reading what has been changed. I told myself that this new stuff must be great. I ordered it and use it for while already. It is really perfect what they have created. I am so thankful and use the system daily with delight, enjoying the results I am getting. I hope they will not decide to change it again, but this one is much better than the previous kit and much better than the regular orange 3-step. Awesome!

Pros:

Clear skin
No new pimples
Reduced redness
Saw fast results
Effective

Cons:

2 different types of cleansers???
Somewhat costly
Moisturizer sometimes harsh

I have been using this product since October now and my skin has not had a bad breakout since. A couple pimples but I believe it is from 2 different cleansers. One of them seemed to be like a more gel-like substance and the other a more white liquid. The gel one was very effective and was the better one I believe. The white liquid seemed to be good but after about a week I found that it the cleanser seemed to stick together and you get a bunch if little particles for some reason. I bought the same system and read all the ingredients but there was no difference. If anybody could help out with that then thank you. Bottom line I love this product and will not stop using it.

Pros:

Acne free!
Helps exfoliate dry skin
Near immediate results

Cons:

Makes skin FEEL dry, I use ponds dry skin cream after the last Acne Free step to fix this.
Skin feels a little raw but is WELL worth it

I've been using this for two weeks and haven't had a new pimple since the day I started. My pimples cleared up right away but my nodules(?) are taking a while to clear but are going down faster than normal. My skin was always dry and flaky and looked dull in the winter, I would exfoliate daily and still have a flaky nose. After using this for a few days my dead skin has been removed and my skin looks fantastic!!! People have commented on how great my skin looks. A few things I do differently from the directions to get better results: 1. After using the cleanser I rub my skin with the wet towel and then rub my skin with a towel when I dry it before I put on the toner. This gets the dead skin off. 2. I let the Acne Free moisturizer soak in for a few minutes and then follow-up with Ponds Dry Skin Cream to help my skin feel moisturized all day. 3. Don't stop using it twice a day if your skin is red and flaky at first. Your skin might take a couple of days to get all the dead skin off. After a week of using this twice a day I was EXTREMELY happy with the results!!

Pros:

OH MY GOODNESS, EVERYTHING.
I'm so happy with my skin, I could cry.
Prevents breakouts.
Soothes.
Not harsh.
Smells okay.
It not only takes care of acne but gives you soft, glowing, beautiful skin.

Cons:

It stains clothes.
It might take a bit long to work, but it prevents any new blemishes. In 4 weeks, your skin will be amazing, or pretty close to it.

BUY IT. Amazing! I've TRIED EVERYTHING!!!!!!! And this works!!!!!!!!!!! I use it 2x a day, and I use the "terminator" on the spots, and it does exactly what it claims -terminates. I started using this on December 2nd, and its January 8th, my skin is spotless. I barely use the terminator because I don't have any spots. I keep using the system because it prevents the break outs from happening, and it does its job. I'm a faithful costumer forever!

Pros:

Very effective

Cons:

None

Recommended by a friend the Acnefree system for sensitive skin has made a real difference, no more breakouts my skin is smoother. I bought the acnefree sulfur mask and it made my pores shrink immediately, I love the products and I will continue using them.

Pros:

Prevents Breakouts, Not drying, not overly moisturizing, just the right amount!

Cons:

Nothing

I have tried everythig for my face Proactive, Skin ID, Acne Foam, Arbonne acne, and RE9, all neutrogena, clean and clear, everything and nothing seemed to work and if it did, not for long. I am very impressed with Acne Free for Sensitive skin, it works great and very reasonably priced!
