Pros:

Smells good, affordable

Cons:

drys out skin, doesn't work, causes acne in places it wasn't previously.

I've never had a problem with acne until recently, so I went to the store and bought this. I used it the night I bought it. It smells really good, and the bottle is easy to use obviously. (: After I used it, my skin felt normal and it was severely dried out. :| I applied some moisturizer and it was fine. After several weeks of using this product, I see NO change! Except now I'm getting acne in places I didn't have it before I started using this product. I've heard good things about clearasil, so I was dissappointed. I will not buy from clearasil again.

Pros:

- It does get rid of some acne
- Good packaging

Cons:

- Dries out the skin
- Causes acne breakouts in other areas which were acne-free before.

I would not recommend this product. I have been using it for a couple of months and I now do not apply it to my face because it just dries out my skin and my cheeks are all red and itchy and rough. It causes acne breakouts in many places. However, it did help clear the acne on my forehead and left cheek, but my skin is still red and dry from it.

Pros:

I works eventually i guess.

Cons:

It does get rid of the spots, but i found it gave me more in other areas. As if it was spreading it!

Because i would put it on before going to sleep, if you smudge where you put it slightly, you would wake up with a new spot there, Which is totally annoying !!!

Pros:

i love the smell, very good packaging, works for a few days

Cons:

strips your skin of oil which makes your skin make more oil which makes you break out, agrevates pimples

you really need to try it out and see what it does for you. i used it with the gel wash and for the first few days of using morning and night it seemed to be clearing up but then nothing changed and then it got worse. you really need to try it out yourself and see what it does for you

Pros:

for the FIRST couple times it worked fine.

Cons:

your skin gets used to it...so it stops working.

works great at first, but if you use it everyday for 2 weeks, it doesnt work anymore..at that time it just makes you break out

Pros:

Clears up acne quickly

Cons:

Does not work long term, dries out skin

If you need a quick fix, this works great. My skin cleared up noticably after only two days. After about two weeks, however, it stopped doing anything. It's still a nice exfoliant, but it doesn't help the acne.

Pros:

none!

Cons:

Bad, bad, bad! I started using this because of the 3-day guarantee, and my acne went from moderate to severe! I even developed nodular acne, which I had never had before!

The 3-day guarantee is a big fat phony lie!

Pros:

None, unless you like the burnt look

Cons:

Everything - Sandpaper skin in 3 days...

I've not used Clearasil for about around a year, but when I did it ruined my skin. Clearer skin in 3 days? The acne did slightly decrease in size, but instead I was left with a whole red, inflamed face which literally peeled off in sheets. Not recommended, switch to more natural products.

Pros:

it clears most the little pimples up pretty fast

Cons:

it takes a while for the big ones to go away, but its not really clear in 3 days either, it takes longer than that

its not the best, but it does do pretty good work. after you use it i recommend using some time of moisterizeer. i use it morning and night and i still get breakouts but it heels them pretty good.
