Pros:

I would always get big paiful pimples on my chin and ever since i started using this facewash i have not gotten any!!!!!!! no other face wash has ever worked for me before.

Cons:

it can be a little pricey but it lasts forever! you only need to use a small amount when washing your face. i usually went through face wash every month and it has been 2 months since i started using it and i still have half the bottle if not more

BEST THING I HAVE EVER USED AND I HAVE HAD ACNE FOR 5 YEARS AND NOTHING ELSE HAS WORKED! WISH I FOUND THIS SOONER

Pros:

It works, I had acne and this is the only product that has worked for my skin, and I have used everything from proactiv.

Cons:

If you stop using it, it seems like some pimples appear again.
It is pricey so try out the package first and if it works buy the whole line.

IT WORKS. ITS WORTH IT. I've tried to convince my friends with really bad acne problems.

Pros:

The only good thing about is is that it makes your face feel really refreshed and clean after use.

Cons:

IT DOESNT WORK....I used the MediBac starter kit for about 2 months...My breakouts were mainly on my chin. I ended up after using with breakouts in the middle of my forhead, and my jawline. It is VERY over-priced. Doesnt work and it just plain sucks.

Dont buy this, it is horrible for adult acne.

Pros:

makes me feel clean. my face is extremely oily and it helps a lot! i don't have many pimples but for the ones i do it helps, and it doesn't do a whole lot to my blackheads but they aren't noticable.

Cons:

pricey. not the best smell, but the scented stuff dries out my skin anyway.

buy it. it's worth it. it's consistent. not overly advertised. its not harsh and it doesn't dry out your skin.

Pros:

HUGE amount of hydration, no added oil; skin feels soft and fresh after use, doesn't leave any residue at all

Cons:

Pricey, comes in a very small bottle

I use this product after my normal skin care regimen (Proactiv) because my face feels so dry and crackly all the time. This product is just what I was looking for: a great moisturizer without extra oil.

Pros:

It feels good going on the skin, and very light.

Cons:

my skin produces more blackheads than ever before. My adult acne is worse than high school.

I've been using Dermalogica's Medibac line for six months- including 7 Medibac facials at the salon. I have very sensitive skin. My skin looks worse than ever! I would not recommend this product to adults with sensitive skin or severe acne

It helped my skin a lot! I use the gel, active moist and a skin renewal booster. I love Dermalogica products

Cons:

None other that it can be too expensive, however it does last a long time.

I would recommend this to anyone.. I love it!

Pros:

My face wasn't oily at all throughout the day. The cleanser is gentle enough for everyday use.

Cons:

I purchased the kit and one of the products makes my face itch. Nonstop.

If you're already on a skin system that works for you, stick with it. Switching it up like I did will only irritate your skin! 40 dollars isn't worth all this itchiness.

Pros:

skin feels great after you use it
smells nice
works good if you have little acne

Cons:

it made my face (acne), not worse, or better.
my face still looks exactly the same.
it's expensive

overall, i would recommend this product if you have little acne, it's not good for bad acne.

Pros:

Keeps oiliness away, helped clear my skin up.

Cons:

Is quite pricey

I was put off using Dermalogica because of the price, but I got the travel pack for Christmas and will be using the products from now on. The three products for my skin type (normal/oily) are just gorgeous, I love the toner its so refreshing. I did not experience any side effects when first using it like most products.
