Pros:

Clears up acne quickly
Cost
Easy

Cons:

Dry skin

I've had light acne all through my teens, and to try and control it, I started proactiv. after 8 months of it getting worse, i've been searching for anything to help my now moderate acne. I LOVE this product. It's the only thing that works! I've order the jojoba oil and AHA+ and can't wait to get it. I recommend to ANYONE! Don't wait until you have a crying fit and are at your wits end. I can't say enough good things!

Pros:

Gentle, fragrance free, inexpensive, really works

Cons:

None

At 40 years old I started having severe cystic breakouts along my jawline, the side of my cheeks and occasionally around my mouth. After googling 'acne' a million times trying to find answers, I clicked on this site that kept coming up and started reading. I was skeptical, but had nothing to lose. If I had before and after photos to show I would! This has been a miracle really, I am so grateful to Dan. I nave never written a review on anything, but I feel this is so important! The regimen works!

Pros:

This stuff is AWESOME! I used to have breakouts periodically throughout my life with brief periods of clear skin. As an adult in the business world, you don't want any breakouts. I tried it, continued to wear my makeup, foundation, etc. and it cleared my skin. I mean SMOOTH, soft, CLEAR SKIN.
At first, there was a texturizing skin adjustment, but once your skin gets used to the product you'll love it. There have been times where I didn't even do the treatment, either too tired or away from hom

Cons:

Not a "Con" really more of a workaround. I’ve found that some makeup isn’t removed with the mild cleansing (with your fingers) only. Your skin/makeup may require you incorporate a textured cleansing cloth – like the long ones used for the body to lightly exfoliate & cleanse the face completely removing the makeup residue. REMEMBER, DO NOT SCRUB. I found these cleansing cloths at the 99-cent store and cut them into thirds yielding me three face washcloths.Then when I'm done I can simply tos

Set relistic expectations & find the routine that works best for YOUR skin type!. No pills! Inexpensive! No weird treatment to make you feel like a leper! No negative stigmas associated when using this regime! Let's be honest, as a woman our sex appeal is in the face ' that's the first thing a man sees & touches - your FACE! Finally' if you think you lost it, go get your SEXY BACK!! LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

Pros:

It works. I don't follow the rules faithfully either. If I see a clogged pore, I'll still pick and pop. But as long as I immediately wash my face and put some treatment on, it doesn't turn into a red pimple. I have no acne, and I haven't said that since before I was 12, and I'm 26 now. I forgot what it is like to walk out of the house without putting makeup on.

Cons:

The first two weeks were tough. My skin itched so badly, and it was red and flaky. This whole process takes a long time, with a lot of hand washing between each step which is a pain. Be sure not to rub the moisturizer under your eye, because it will transfer the treatment, and dry burning under-eye is miserable. My blackheads are still loud and proud on my nose. Not sure now to get rid of those rascals. The shipping takes over a week, and it's kind of expensive if you dont do the automatic order

Before starting The Regimen I had used pretty much every item in the acne aisle at Target, and some prescription medication and home remedies. No matter what I used I consistently had up to 16 blemishes at a time. After the first application of The Regimen I knew it was working, mainly because of the terrible burning, flaking, and itching. But all acne production stopped. Immediately. Now 6 months later I have NO acne, other than blackheads. It has truly changed my life

Pros:

Cleared my acne 100%
Inexpensive

Cons:

Dry skin leaves me very dependant on moisturizer

I've been on the Regimen for over 2 years now, and I still absolutely love it. It's the only thing that worked to clear my acne 100% (I had moderate acne, with a few cysts before beginning the regimen). I saw results after a few weeks and was completely clear by 4 months. I follow it every day, and once I was completely clear I was able to scale back on the amount of BP I use so that my skin is less dry/red. I love these products. Highly recommended.

Pros:

stick with the regimen it works.
each step is awesome and after a few weeks will make ur skin glow.. in a good way. No side effects like accutane

Cons:

the first week or so is brutal.
first two weeks you will experience itchiness, redness and discomfort but stick with the regimen as the website lays out.

It works!! im pale and have ultra sensitive skin. I was on accutane so for those who were on that ur skin will not get nearly as dry as the accutane me it, and it doesnt affect ur lips like accutane. My skin did get itchy and red but the moisturizer and aha are awesome. This regimen makes my skin glow. Im acne free with a pimple or two maybe once every 6 months. For the first time in my life people complement me on my skin and dont believe me when i tell them i suffered from acne.
