Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
Cleanser-I don't like it. Doesn't leave my face clean, and it doesn't remove my makeup.
toner-makes my face feel clean.
Medication-Will only work if you put on alot of it. Refining mask-Works, but not by much (I'd say 40%).
Cons:
Pricey, and I also have the oil control product, which doesn't really help the oil production on my face.
It works, at least for someone who has mild acne, but doesn't help control the oil production on my face. Also, I still received breakouts.

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
I used proactiv for about a year, my skin was GREAT! But then, I started to break out, my skin got worse and worse, and proactiv no longer works for me. I did try acnexus, and it does NOT work at all! I recommend that you do not buy it.
Cons:
It is pretty pricey. It takes a while for it to start working on your skin. It stops working after a short usage time.
Proactiv is a good treatment for acne if you think that your acne will be over in a short timing. But otherwise this product isnt for you.

Product used: Stridex (Day & Night Acne Medication)
Pros:
It clears my skin, and it's the only thing that has worked for me. It's pretty easy to use and doesn't take a lot of time to put on.
Cons:
I can't find this product anywhere. And the night creme can feel kind of sticky for a while.
It works, and it's worth it.

Product used: Dr. Sheffield's (Clear Zit Acne Treatment Cream)
Pros:
Cheap and works well
Cons:
Drys skin a little and burns
This product works so well its like nothing i have ever used before. It does dry your skin a little but it is totally worth putting a little extra lotion on if it mean I am going to get clear skin. I don't have that bad of acne but this just ggives me better looking skin.
I got this product at Dollar Genral after reading the reviews here.
July 20, 2007
Product used: Clean & Clear (Continuous Control Acne Cleanser)
Pros:
I like the bottle idea,which is practical for travel.Seems to make my skin glow and fresher. Acne seems to get better, and pimples are smaller and lighter. Ok smell :).Can be drying but works great with the Clean and Clear dual action moisturizer
Cons:
Not all of my acne has disapeared. Not many people have noticed the acne that HAS dissapeared.CAn be drying without a moisturizor
This is a great product.I may buy it again, or i may try the advantage acne control kit. This is much better than anything I have used before( Neutrogena Deep Clean cleanser/astrigent/moisturizer)I'm very glad I tried this product, and so far I am pleased with Clean&Clear and want to try more products from their line. As a 13 year old with VERY SEVERE ACNE(i'm taking horrible acne) its hard to find a product that works pretty well. While this product did not create any miracles for my acne,I have to say that I am very thankful for using this product.

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
I have been using this product for 8 years. It works pretty well. I used it once every morning. My skin was a nightmare before proactive. Proactive repaired my skin so much that it saved me from so much humiliation as a student. My miracle.
Cons:
It is pricely.
I do agree that the mask does make your skin feel tight and dry. But if you touch your skin it does feel soft. I have recommened to my little brother but he does not used like it is recommended so he still has acne but I don't because I follow the directions.

Product used: Clean & Clear (Continuous Control Acne Wash)
Pros:
removes make up in a flash,helps to even out skin tone, decreases break outs
Cons:
has fragrance in it
i love this cleanser. dont know how well it works on breakouts alone because i use it with the clean and clear advantage moisturizer(THIS IS GREAT STUFF-THIS IS WHAT REALLY DECREASES ACNE),and i also use clean and clear blackhead clearing scrub once a week. i have seen amazing results since starting this regimen. i have less breakouts, smooth skin, even my dark spots are fading. i have tried EVERYTHING. so far this is the best regimen i only hope these products dont fizzle out on me. if they dont this will be my regimen for life.
Pros:
ITS FRICKEN AWESOME!!!!!!!!
