Product used: Acne.org (Treatment (Benzoyl Peroxide - 2.5%))
Pros:
Clears skin rapidly
Maintains skin clear
Easy to apply
Cons:
May dry and burn skin
Absolutely the best product I have tried for acne. It cleared completely my skin in less than a month! It burned a bit and dried my skin in the beginning, but I started using the jojoba oil after applying the product and no longer suffer any of these side effects. I just want to make certain that people understand that I did have severe acne and that not even prescription antibiotics helped as much as this product did. I am extremely pleased with the overall results and will recommend it to all those who suffer acne.

I LOVE this product!! I am 14 and I will be in high school in 3 months. I have had acne since the 5th grade and I have tried EVERYTHING. Minocycline, clean and clear, proactive, mario badescu (worked for a little while), everything. My mom went out and bought me this and I fell in love. The moisturizer is so great!! It leaves your skin feeling healthy and smooth. Go buy it!!

Product used: The Regimen
Pros:
Clear skin!
Cons:
Drying at first
This stuff is absolutely amazing as well as affordable. It gives you rapid results if you follow the instructions correctly. Cystic acne runs through my family-I would have painful red cystic pimples on my jawline as well as tiny painful pimples on my upper lip which looked horrible. The first week of using the regimen I could instantly see and feel a difference. Needless to say this product will always and only be a part of my day/night routine.

Product used: Clinique (Acne Solutions Clear Skin System)
Pros:
None
Cons:
Way to expensive
Dryed out my skin
Doesn't work
Very harsh in skin
I have moderate acne and I heard this 3 step system worked well so I decided to give it a try nope absolutely horrible completely dried my skin out to the point I couldnt even put makeup on it would just flake off. I've tried many acne products and this by far was the worst!!!!!! Waste of money!!!!!

Product used: Acne.org (Treatment (Benzoyl Peroxide - 2.5%))
Pros:
I now have perfect skin
Cons:
My skin was very flaky & red for some time. It has taken about 6 months to be totally clear
You need to use this product at least twice a day and carry on with it even when you are still scaley and spotty.
My spots gradually got less but it took 6 months + to be totally clear. I now use it once a day and have pretty clear skin apart from maybe one or two around my jaw line during hormonal days

Product used: DeeVoo Skin Care (Acne Trio)
Pros:
Vegan products made with natural and organic ingredients. At 24 years old I cleared up completely within 3 months, and have been acne free for a year now! Couldn’t be happier to have found a product that incorporates such natural ingredients (clay, jojoba oil, grape seed oil, extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, and essential oils) with the acne fighting properties of Benzoyl Peroxide.
Cons:
A little pricy, but totally worth it!
I found this seller on Etsy and was really curious to give their products a try. The information provided about skin care and acne was really different and kind of weird, but it made sense and the reviews for the Acne Trio were excellent. The cleanser is inspired by the oil cleansing method and leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean all day long. The toner is my favorite; it smells wonderful and doesn't strip the oil from my face. The Acne Moisturizer combines 2.5% BP with natural oils, and so it doesn't make my skin red or '˜sunburned' at all.
