Saved my skin
I was diagnosed with PCOS April 2016 and my skin was a disaster. I moved to Hawaii and was desperate to go makeup free so I tried the regiment because I'd tried everything else. This stuff is a lifesaver! I can not go with just using it every other day and very very very rarely have a breakout. I'll never be without this!

Long hard journey but ended up working
My skin has been very bad for years now, I probably have been suffering for 4 years. I've tried mostly anything you can think of, Minocycline, Retin-A, birth control, doxycycline, pro-active and a lot of over the counter as well as organic remedies. Sadly nothing worked for me except for Aczone which my insurance discontinued and now The regimen. Thank god I used the regimen because there would be about 20 pimples on my face at once along with post acne marks. The thing with the regimen is it took a while to work, for me it took 7 months and before it worked it got reallllllly ugly and bad. I was losing so much hope and getting so upset but I'm so happy I never stopped. I knew a lot of people said it gets worse before it gets better but wow I didn't expect it to get this worse and for that long. It took a really long time for my skin to get better and it made my skin about 95% worse. Not only with the pimples but the dryness peeling and irritation. My skin is so sensitive but it was just terribleee. I almost stopped so many times but then after a while I stopped getting pimples finally !!! 7 months of irritation burning dryness peeling pimples that multiples and then I finally seen a difference no more pimples!! But moral of the story no matter how bad it is STICK IN THERE! I'm telling you you won't regret it. Now I finished the whole bottle and waiting for the new shipment to come in and I'm already getting pimples again which I haven't since the treatment started working besides around my period time which I've always gotten. But anyway this definitely works. By the way u only need the treatment the moisturizer is nasty and the cleaner is useless I use cetaphil instead. The regimen definitely changed my life now I just gotta focus on getting rid of the post acne marks.

I've used the acne regimen kit awhile back before, but stopped once I ran out of cleanser. I didn't have too many breakouts, mostly hormonal & a lot of hyperpigmentation & made my skin look worse than what it really was. I love skincare & love taking care of my skin but for some reason my skin was not loving me back. I would have so much texture and whiteheads, stubborn pimples. I've tried soo many things with no results & it just did not want to work. I still had benzoyl peroxide left, so I decided to use it again. I've been using it for about a week and my face is significantly more smooth! When I wash my face, I don't feel anymore texture & it makes me so happy! I had some breakouts on my cheek and they were gone in about 3 days & I have no active breakouts. This benzoyl peroxide is truly amazing :) I ordered the kit again, this time with AHA, so I'll see how that goes!

have u tried it on the front neck area? was curious if it would irritate it
June 21, 2017
@leahh0805 yes, kind of. I applied it to my lower jaw/under the chin area and the top part of my neck was itchy, irritated and red and it stayed like that for a day or 2. Now I just avoid going too far down. Hope this helped!

after stopping and using the regimen again, has your skin clear up again?
July 14, 2017
@cynndi yes! I kind of took a break from it because it was making my skin too dry for my liking. I traveled out of the US and didn't want to bring it and deal with my skin being dry for my vacation. Due to traveling and being on the plane for so long, I did break out and started getting texture again. Now that I'm back, I used BP for a couple nights to clear my skin and it did. I only get a breakout every now and then. I mix the AHA into my moisturizer every night for my scars and my texture has smoothened out drastically. Hope this helped!

I couldn't Thank Enough :)
Suddenly suffered from hormonal cystic acne that terribly painful and prone since last September 2016. I did use proactiv solutions but I dont know why it doesn't seem to work on my skin anymore (especially their + products. So one day I browsed youtube and end up with acneorg's reviews. It took me a month before I decided to buy it because I am kind of sceptical since it also contains 2.5% BP just like proactiv. But finally I tell myself, what I got to loose, my skin is already on it's terrible condition anyway. (moreover, it's cheaper that proactive!) So here I am, entering the 5th week using the regimen. The only thing I could say is, my skin gets better and better. Yes, now I got super dry and flakey skin (I am normally oily skin), but the texture of my face, amazing. BP literally controls my skin, especially acne. Well, still got new acnes, but really small and not RED just like I had one before. Thanks for once again putting my self confidence back. Look forward for the better improvement ahead :)

Hi @leahh0805 I did try it on my neck. Been using it for 2 months now becuase i have quite amount of acne on my neck as well. Its pretty mmuch itchy and flaking. But i dont get breakouts anymore there. So i am asuming the itchy and flakiness will fade away after few more months of using. Good luck with you:)

A1 product: very detailed review
First let me say that I love the honesty and the straight to the point no bs factor about this product . I have the travel kit and let me tell you it's been barely 2 weeks the bottles are still full and my skin is 90% clear of acne if not more. A big part of that is because of this benzoyl peroxide ESPECIALLY because I've been using it as directed when it comes to delicately placing it on my face . And I follow that to a T . As with the cleanser and moisturizer 10 seconds . Watch the video on how to use these products and follow it. It works . I started off with skin that wasn't crazy cystic acne or anything like that but I couldn't get rid of my acne completely ever. This is looking promising. AND you know those annoying little bumps that aren't acne but are under your bottom lip area and above where your chin is ? They are clearing up as well. Honestly u can substitute the cleanser and moisturizer and buy plain emphasis on plain n gentle ones from wherever and just follow the same steps but the benzoyl peroxide is a must have (and I know u can get it over the counter but I like the acne.org one) it's a gel like formula that absorbs completely, no white chalky goo cream that u can't wear under makeup n gets greasy as you rub it on. When I put this on it kind of instantly calms any irritation or little bumps I might have now . By the time it dries down I can definately feel my skin being smoother nothing mind blowing but I see it and feel it. One thing that I didn't exactly follow is how much I used. The first week I used the reccomended amount to start off with and at night I used a tad more the second week I used a whole index fingers length at night and in the morning I used a little less. I'm still in the second week right now and I'm now using a whole fingers length day and night. And the reason I did that is because in the day I did it want to dry my skin out too much and risk being crusty and ashy even after applying moisturizer I was scared to go in all the way do I held back a bit. Now, my skins used to it and it does get dry like around my nose here and there and mouth if I don't take care of myself for the day.

Im back I just wanted to say also I'm a woman of color Black ,Latina and I noticed back when my acne was the worst it's been (puberty) that the neutrogena clean n clear etc etc drugstore fails that would buy often had benzoyl peroxide in them and were targeted towards Caucasians with blackheads crater like acne and redness (none of which were my conceren) those products never did anything for me really besides make me feel less dirty like any old bar of soap would .and I found that for my Brown Skin that salcic acid worked a lot better at clearing my whiteheads on my forehead n face . For example this ambi even and clear pump bottle cleanser was much more effective . So when I saw this was a benzoyl peroxide based system I was like UGH great another product that's not for me . I thought it probably only clears cystic acne and blackheads and wont do squat for my skin but this did so read my above review and give it a try. The travel size is a good deal and all u need for a while.

My all-time favorite!
This dries clear on my skin. It doesn't leave a white cast on my dark skin and it doesn't interact with my makeup. This is worth every penny!

Love hate... But LOVE!
This stuff works. It will work as promised and you will see results as promised but 1st it will dry your face out like you'd never imagine! This is part of the process though, so it's worth the endurance once you see the end results. I recommend using this acne.org gel way more than anything you'll find in the drug store. Been there, doesn't work and leaves a white powdery pasty residue on your face. This completely absorbs into the skin. Love!
