Works but major dryness
I have been using the regimen exactly as they prescribe,but I use a little less benzoyl peroxide about 2 peas in size,I focus on my trouble areas chin,jaw line and underneath my cheek bones. It seems to have limit my amount of acne and get rid of cystic acne as well,although I am also on 100mg of spironolactone as well. I got a few little pimples around my time of the month but nothing compared to before. But it does really dry out your face and my face was peeling. My neck was the worst it is scaly and itchy. But I just over moisturize and on the weekends only use it in the evening. Seems to be working. Fingers crossed

Kills bacteria
I've had acne since i was 13 years old. Just know that its more than cleanliness to the face. Acne develops from the inside out. Ive bought acne.org's regimen several times and for the most part it did a good job. Benzoyl peroxide is great at reducing the inflammation as it is similar to the way hydrogen peroxide works; it kills bacteria. It won't necessarily prevent acne but it will help combat it when its inflammed. Does not reduce oil production but helps minimize whiteheads.

So Far ... So Good !
PLEASE READ! --- I wont go into depths about my life with acne, I am simply here to give my opinion about the regimen. I am on week 2 of the regimen... although it is still early into my journey with the acne.org regimen... so far I don't see a HUGE change in my acne, but I do see results. I have really bad cystic acne and scaring, especially on my cheeks and forehead. I am happy to say this and hopefully I wont be jinxing it, but my cheeks are so much smoother and the red scaring is slowly but surely fading... Each and every review on here have one thing in common... this regimen WILL make your face flakey and dry. My face is super oily and even that doesn't over power the dry and flakiness. One thing that I dislike is how you have to "BARELY" touch your skin while doing the regimen. JUST BE GENTLE -- GENTLE GENTLE GENTLE IS KEY !! Just like everything you are trying for the first time, this regimen will take some time to get use to. You MUST have patience but I promise you, you will see results. I am no success story but I am hoping after a month or two or so on this regimen I will come back and be that success story. I am so beyond excited to see what this regimen will do to my face in the next couple of weeks! And i will surely be back to give you all an update! :) CHEERS!

Pros:

I am 35 years old and out of the blue starting suffering from acne that seems to be hormonal. I have never had acne issues, even when going through puberty so this has been devestating at my age. I have spent lots of money on face washes, treatments, lotions, foundations, etc trying to find the right fix and I stumbled across acne.org. I first tried the Nutragena On the Spot and I did get good results but since that worked so well, I decided to try Dan's solutions and I am Super Pleased!!

Cons:

It takes longer to rub in, which is the whole point of what helps it work, but I have to allow extra time to get ready. It was very drying at first, but my skin adjusted within a week.

I still get some breakouts, especially around 'that time' but after everything else I have purchased, I am very happy with the results from using this along with Dan's other items! Thank you!!!!

Pros:

Clears up acne so fast!

Cons:

It makes the skin quite dry but with the acne.org moisturizer the dryness tends to go away fast.

It's amazing! And my acne hasn't be better!

Pros:

Bang for your buck. One 8 oz tube can easily last 2+ months, mine usually lasts 10 weeks.
Non-irritating (in the long run)
Affordable
User-friendly packaging and instruction
Simple
Effective
Goes on smooth, works under makeup

Cons:

None compared to the pros

It works. It's simple, effective, affordable. This gel based formula has been the only product I've used which has not been messy, extremely irritating, or lumpy under makeup. My skin adjusted to the formula within a month. It goes on clear and is easy, one application in the morning, one at night. Clear(ing) skin. At 10 weeks I have not had any new blemishes, and I am clearing nicely. Old red marks are fading as well. Try this product. It's a must.

Pros:

lightweight

no smell
very smooth
gets rid of acne

Cons:

bleaches stuff.
can be painful at first

when this product is used on is own,it does the job well. combined with dans whole system plus the aha formula got me clear and keeps me clear. Like everyone else who reviews this, i can say that nothing else has worked including every home remedy to prescriptions to proactive to all other acne washes. Bottom line: try this product if you are at your wits end. And get the system

Pros:

Helped clear up

Cons:

Didn't complete clear me up

I've done the regimine for about a year and then gave up when I was still getting break outs, however I was using Nuetrogena on the spot and not dan's bp. A few months ago my skin got really bad (Large pimples on the tip of my nose and all along jawline) and I decided to give dan's products a try save for the cleanser (I use Cetaphil) The first week I didn't notice a large improvement, but the second week I did. My skin has started to get better up until probably a few days ago when a really bad break out happened again on my cheeks. I think this product is still great though, and I'm gonna stick with it til I run out or if my condition gets any worse.

Pros:

Severely reduces acne, is very affordable, and is easy to order online

Cons:

Does not stop all acne, does little on already existing pimples, is excessively drying, is very time consuming (the regimen takes about half an hour twice daily), and bleaches everything-I have spent lots of money replacing things this product ruined

This product does make a difference on your acne - but the numerous drawbacks may not be worth the limited results. It took about two months for my skin to be able to tolerate the two pumps of product reccommended in the regimen. Even after a year and a half of usage, I still need go through 16 oz of moisturizer a month to control the dryness and flaking. Warning: If you are going to try this product, be soo careful with this stuff. Pin all your hair back before every application, or the front of your hair will start to turn blonde. After application, throroughly wash your hands and dry completely with a white towel, and remember not to pull any clothes over your head. Switch to white sheets and pillowcases, or they will become bleached. Verdict: This is a good product, but I personally, do not find it worth the hassle.
