Made My Acne Worse
I am 15 years old and started using this product about 10 days ago, and it has done absolutely nothing except make my acne flare up. I had been using Proactiv/Proactiv+ for over a year, and while it helped clear my face up a little in the beginning, it eventually stopped improving and had kept my acne at a mild/moderate level. I saw the X Out commercials on TV and was immediately attracted to it because it is specifically geared towards teens and is by the makers of Proactiv. I did some research online and found very mixed reviews (mostly negative, honestly) but decided to give it a try anyway. Bad choice. I received the 30 day wash-in treatment along with the body bar, spot corrector, and shine control product. Upon first use, I thought the cooling effect was nice, but was also greeted with very dry skin (to be expected from the high concentration of benzoyl peroxide, but was nonetheless very uncomfortable). It has since only increased my breakouts on my entire face. I tried the spot corrector morning and evening, and it doesn't do a thing. In fact, I have gotten so annoyed with the spot corrector not working, that I have gone back to my Proactiv spot treatments. Same story with the body bar: made everything worse. The only product that has shown a bit of promise is the shine control, but that's not nearly enough to keep me as a customer. In just 10 days, my acne is the worst it has been in over a year. I am going to send this package back for a refund ASAP, and will continue using Proactiv+ until I order my next option: Exposed Skin Care.

Worse thing ever
This product sucks . I dries and irritates my skin so much and causes more acne . At first it cleared up but constantly would begin to peel . Acne is bad but with my faced peeled looking like America isn't any better . If you want to try I ahead if you think it's best I'm just going to say I have oily skin and not even lotion , baby oil or moisturizer could help with the dryness . It itches and burns . I stopped using every skin care product and just started rinsing my face and using makeup remover with only drinking water and my face isn't all that great now but it's only a few pimples left and I see it's gonna go away even more , I wouldn't waste my money on this bullcrap I have been a costumer or almost a year and it still hasn't worked X OUT IS AWFUL , PAINFUL AND ITCHY WHAT A PAIN IN MY BUTT IT IS !!! So thanks for not helping you suck X out I'm am no longer a costumer of yours home remedies do better than your product .

worst product ever

Cons:

the product sucks
too costly
monthly unknown fees

I called them to get a 30-day supply, & they said it would be there within a week, 4 weeks passed & I NEVER got it. I called them again & they said they were still sending it. Finally, after five weeks of waiting, I got a 90-day supply. I asked For a 30-day supply plus I got a call from my bank & my debit card was maxed out?? I traced down where my money went and it went to X Out. I called X Out and I tried to cancel my subscription, the lady said it was all done. After using the product a month, the product didn't work AT ALL. & the next month, I was still charged! Unbelievable!! I ended up canceling my card because of them. Its a total rip off. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT AND SERVICE AT ALL.

Xout sucks

Cons:

Breakouts occur more often

Dry skin

Never have I been so angry, not only did this product not work, it broke me out even more and made my face dry! I bought the 30 day supply, and they ended up charging for the 90 day supply. Xout sucks big time.

Do NOT buy
It simply does not work. It's not worth buying. They also hide that they'll charge you every month for 3 months ! I wish I could back to the day I bought this :(

great product. read the review

Pros:

icy feel
soft skin
really good product

Cons:

monthly subsciption (can be cancelled)

Personally I would recommend this product. First off I wanna say that before I bought the product I literally watched all the review videos on YouTube. Then I got on google and looked for reviews and I actually came to this site and saw the review that is below mine , or should be below mine where it says I'm not the type of person ... Blah blah blah. So seeing the reviews I was nervous to buy it because I heard that sometimes they rip you off and they won't send any product or that they keep charging you .... But I ended up buying it on a Friday and my order got here the Thursday of the following week . The day I got it I cancelled my subscription so that I wouldn't be charged for any further orders. I started using the product the day after I got it. Washing in the morning and at night and its been working. It leaves an icy feel and my skin is really soft. I've noticed fewer pimples and I've only been using it for about a week and half. Depending on how your skin reacts , because we all have different skin , this product really works

A TOTAL SCAM
Their auto-enroll is SHAAAADY. I tried XOut for 2 weeks, it didn't work, I cancelled. Then, a MONTH after I cancelled, I got an email saying that I owed them $80. They listed in their system that I called them 3 days ago on (big surprise) the day my shipment went out. Also, IT DOESN'T WORK. Stick with cheap OTC Benzoyl Peroxide.

Worst customer sevice
I wish I could give this "0" stars. First off I ordered this online and the email confirmation said it would ship as quick as possible because waiting sucks right? Is basically what it said. I waited two weeks and nothing came. I called to cancel my order and the girl said ok ill cancel it. I asked when I can get a refund and she said " over night" I'm ok. Of course that never happened so I called again a week later and explained my situation again and not to mention when they first answered they were talking in the bg it sounded to unprofessional. She said ok you'll get your refund after the holiday weekend. Never received it still. I finally called again tonight and the lady said they have to send out a letter for me to fill out letting them know I never received he product in the first place and then fax it back! Wow!!! I've never been so upset before. My advice? See if proactive works for you since it's been around longer. If not just go straight to your dermatologist.

HATE THIS PRODUCT
DO NOT EVER PURCHASE THIS ACNE PRODUCT. This is my first time ever writing a review, but I feel like I had to get out how I feel about this product. This product made my skin 100x worse. I have struggled with acne all of my teenage years (I'm 20 now). I tried Proactive a few years back and that product absolutely did not work either. It was far too costly and it made my skin worse. I don't know if the acne fighting ingredients just don't agree with my skin or what, but this product is horrible. I wish there was a spot to write reviews on the XOut website because I would. I used it for about a month and had to stop. I had pimples everywhere.. more than ever. Big pimples that hurt! I've never had such terrible skin. I stopped recently and have been using just a Clean and Clear scrub, and my skin is FINALLY back to normal. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT. ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE.
