Product used: Carley's (Clear and Smooth Skin Treatment)
Cons:
Only con is I have to get it shipped from America - but well worth it
This is fabulous stuff, the range of products are fantastic. I first purchased 10 years ago and used for a few years, now I have not found anything near as good since, and so I am back and will look nowhere else. Thank you so much for the extra free samples too - it means I can 'try' something out and order it next time with confidence. It lasts a long time too, so getting it sent worldwide soon pays for itself. I have put several friends onto it over the years too and I will be sticking with it!

Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Pros:
I guess it's cheaper than any other acne product out there.
Cons:
Face is dried right after useage. My face became itchy and had red bumps after the fourth day.
So I've been using this for a few days .. For the first three days it felt like this product was really working, since I didn't have any breakouts, which was a plus. It made me think that this was the perfect product for me, since it's cheap, and I don't have future breakouts. Then the fourth day hits, maybe it's just me, but I got an allergic reaction, that's what I'm assuming. My face is so itchy and has all these little red bumps ..

Product used: Clinique (Acne Solutions Clear Skin System)
Pros:
Seems to brighten skin. Reduced break-outs, recudes the healing time acne. My skin is oily, so I don't find it drying like others. It's very nice, just remember to use it regularly.
Cons:
Kinda expensive, but it works. 70 CDN for the three step (full size) kit.
It's good, just know that it is a strong solution and it will take a few weeks for a true result.

Product used: Carley's (Clear and Smooth Skin Treatment)
Pros:
I started ordering this when I saw a girl's beautiful skin and asked what she used. If I allow myself to run out of the scrub, I always get a break-out. So, I try not to run out now. I'm 54 years old and I really like your stuff!
Cons:
None
Buy it!

Product used: PanOxyl (Benzoyl Peroxide (10%) Aquagel)
Pros:
Clears up your face pretty much within the first wash. Keeps zits away.
Cons:
Makes your skin very dry and flakey. But moisturizer solves this problem 100%
This stuff works 99% of the time and works GOOD. I would suggest it from mild to severe

Product used: Carley's (Clear and Smooth Skin Treatment)
Pros:
I have been suffering from acne since I was 12. I have severe cycstic acne. I have also been a licensed Medical Facial Tech for over ten years. In all of my experience nothing not even the extreme tlaser treatments have workes as well as this stuf
Cons:
The only bad thing I could possibly think of is that I didn't find it sooner!
When I started using carleys I was skeptical. Being in the skin care indistry I have used litterally every products out there. None of them worked and most of them left my skin ichy red and sometimes burned with swollen eye lids. So I lathered up the natural soap and was impressed at how soft and clean my skin was without feeling tight. The treatment felt like most scrubs with the exception of this one not stingning. The next day I noticed my skin looking better, with a glow. Within 4 days all of my current acne was gone and to my amazment I had not gotten another zit in four days! As I continued with the line my skin got better and better all of the little bumps went away and the zits I did get were smaller and went away fast. Now, 4 months later my skin is clear and smooth and glowing. I don't even wear make up all the time! 4 months ago I had acne, now I finally at 29 have pretty clear skin! I also love their foundation.I will never use another line on my skin this is it!

Product used: Clinique (Acne Solutions Clear Skin System)
Pros:
None
Cons:
Dryness
Doesn't work
After reading other reviews about this product, I was REALLY disappointed when it didn't do a single thing for me except for dry out my skin. If anything, I think it made my acne worse. :(

Product used: Clearasil (Ultra Rapid Acne Vanishing Treatment Cream)
Pros:
using it on a single zit might help a little
Cons:
applying to skin will give you extreme redness, and possible cause a major breakout
Avoid this product for multiple reasons. -if you have severe acne like me then it will most likely only make things worse
-if you have light acne then it will likely give you more bottom line, don't use
