Pros:

Worked well at first..

Cons:

Made skin oily, caused more breakouts eventually

It worked well at first. I have dry skin, and after using this product for a few months my skin became extremely oily. My breakouts got worse, and eventually developed cystic, painful acne. I switched to Proactiv and my skin immediately cleared.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Way too harsh.
Expensive.
Terrible customer service.

Awful. The worst product I've ever used. I tried two different combinations and both made my normally moist skin (oily if anything) dry, flaky and inflamed. It did not clear up my acne at all, in fact, I got some of the largest pimples I've ever gotten. They also neglected to ship my second shipment for two weeks and did not tell me anything about why. I had to email them myself to find out why. They also neglected to answer half of the questions I put in my email. Since I canceled my order after the last shipment was "processed" they charged me for two months after and said there was nothing I could do about it. I wouldn't recommend this product to ANYONE.

Pros:

cleared skin quickly, smells good, easy and spelled out steps

Cons:

the cleanser burns my skin, sensitivity on my face throughout the day, small tubes for the price

I've used everything any drugstore sells for acne. While the skinid products might be labeled and sold under other names, I could never find the right combination of products to clear my skin the way skinid has in less than a week. I'm a bit doubtful that the small tubes will last 60 days, but we'll see. It only takes me about 3 minutes to do the system...I used to spend much more time applying masks and using makeup to cover up my acne. The only thing that bothers me is that my skin feels more sensitive and burns a little sometimes, but using a light moisturizer after the third step helps. My skin is not only clearer, but softer and smoother and no longer gets greasy by the end of the day. I'm hoping it continues to work this well because it's been a miracle for me.

Pros:

It cleared skin fast!
smelled nice
evens skin

Cons:

burned skin slightly
takes a while to use product(3 steps)

Overall, it is a good product. i have been using it for a couple of weeks and my acne has reduce a lot. in the future i plan to continue using this product. It is worth your money. proactive just burns your skin and irratates it much much more.

i personally like this alot so far. i saw a dramatic change in my skin in just a few days. i had tiny bumps on my forehead i was struggling to get rid of along with patchy dryness. after two days, my patchy skin and bumps were gone, and my skin was super soft. it makes my skin smooth, and has made my pores smaller. really like this so far, and it smells nice too. it did start to dry my skin out after a week or so, but i moisturize after using the products, and it helps.

Pros:

- allows you to fill out a survey to accurately match your skin type
- leaves skin soft
- smells good

Cons:

- expensive for what it does
- not that effective
- three products is a lot to use when getting ready in the morning

I get random breakouts due to stress, so I took the survey for Skin ID. My numbers are 07, 32, 72. First of all, the cleanser/mask ruined my towels, which, to be honest, is the main reason I cancelled this product. But also because, if a product ruins my towels, I expect it to actually help my breakouts! It left my skin extremely soft, but any breakouts I have take forever to go away when I use this product, even with the spot treatment (my "free gift"). It doesn't prevent any breakouts, as I've gotten the same amount as I did before I started using this product. This product is also very expensive: I searched for the perfect skin treatment using Google, and I found a website that gave me cheaper solutions that I could buy at a drug store. And guess what, it actually worked - and didn't ruin my towels!

Pros:

-Hmmm, it has a great smell which is something no one should really pay attention to but I find it if it smells good, it's one thing I like about it :)
-Does clear up a bit. I have tooken pictures ever since the day I got it and my redness is wonderful. Then I did like a week with my old face wash because I just got my 80% organic cleanser and my redness came back.

Cons:

-I was using SkinId for one week and I hadn't gotten my period, but once my period came my Skin Id did not help as I thought it should. It just made sure no more breakouts came, which I found okay, but I needed to treat my breakouts not let it stay there
-Caused me a rash-like around my eyes, excessive dryness, A lot of skin peelin in the beginning, but after a week, it was fine.
-no exfoliators or scrubbing pads included. i dont want to use my hands, its full of bacteria and can cause m

Over all, I like Skin Id very much. I think that because I'm still young and my hormones are up and about it (meaning it's a typical hormone mess up due to the changin of age, im 12), I shouldnt use Skin Id tho it has helped me. My skin later on was sofft, but had a bit leftover pimples. For ppl over 15, i suggest that they get this bcuz their hormones are gettin a bit better and calm. Im afraid when my acne gets very SEVERE when im in highschool, it wont work :(
