Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Pros:
None
Cons:
It didn't work for me, it actually gave me acne. It was quite a bit expensive also.
I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone. I did use this product for a week, says on the box "Clearer skin in just days". I went back to what I was using and my acne started clearing up, those products together were under $15.

Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Pros:
Cleared up skin right away at first.
Cons:
Began to consistently have bumps that were just occasionally appearing when I started using the product. Also cause me to have a rash around my mouth and dried out my skin pretty badly.
It works great the first week or two, but then the effectiveness wears off. If you don't have severe acne or just want a quick fix, use it. If you don't want to continue to have acne, don't use it.

Pros:
Pills taste nice and the package labels AM & PM pills - very easy to keep track.
Cons:
Very drying. The cream is supposed to work on the small 'bumps' but doesn't.
This package comes with 60 oral pills and a tube of 'vanishing cream'. I've been taking them for exactly two weeks and see a slight improvement, however the past few days I discovered two large zits deep beneath the surface of my skin emerging. I find that the skin on my cheeks and neck have gotten very dry. I can't tell yet if it's working/if it will work. It's an easy routine to do though and I've noticed that new deep pimples do not appear as often as they were before I started. Then again, it could just be a coincidence.
September 9, 2008
Pros:
My skin has cleared up significantly since using it for three weeks now. I am getting fewer breakouts whereas before new pimples would appear almost on a daily basis. I even
tried proactive but with no results.
Cons:
Dried up my skin at first but heres my secret: I apply aloe vera after the bp. I find it keeps my skin soft and even speeds up the healing process. The first two weeks, i experienced bad breakouts but i continued with it and so glad i didnt stop.
Try it for yourself as everybody will react differently to it. Its affordable and an easy regimen to follow.

Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Pros:
ive used acnefree for a week now and i absolutly love it. its clearing up my skin really well, well enough to bother to write a review on it. it doesnt work super super fast like in 3 days but it does work. my skin is sooo smooth now. trust me.
Cons:
It does dry out my skin a little probably cause i use it more then twice a day sometimes since ive only had acnefree for a week and i want to get rid of previous acne as soon as i can. but its nothing moisturizer cant fix.
i LOVE it. ive used everything. proactiv, skin iD, clearasil, all those other drug store acne kits like lotions, scrubs, liquid ect. but acnefree is by far the best one. since ive used it my before acne is going away and i havnt had anything new pop up. all i can say is that it does work for me and it might work for you, besides its relativly cheap for being so convienient unlike other products like proactiv.

Product used: Acne.org (Treatment (Benzoyl Peroxide - 2.5%))
Pros:
Keeps my face completely clear. I have to use it at a half dose in order to keep my skin from peeling, however it keeps me 100% clear. Clears all kinds of zits, minimized blackheads, and improved overall quality of skin tone.
Cons:
Can cause dryness, not sold in stores.
This is easily the most effective benzoyl peroxide I've ever used.
Pros:
- Definitely clears skin to 80% fully clear
