This gel gets a big no from me. I've been using it sparingly every now and then during a big breakout. It did definitely work for the breakouts even ones that were on my face fit weeks with no sign of going away. HOWEVER: I could only use this product once over night (I never used it during the day) on top of moisturiser and Only a minimal amount. If that was done one night and never again, the redness it created would go away fairly quickly. 1-2 days and my skin was fine. The moment I applied it the next night, the next morning I the area was extremely red, EXTREMELY dry which felt like a dry shell created over the area, the area swelled up a little + my skin burnt a bit. Saying that, my skin at the moment is still red to this day (been like this for roughly 4 days now) but it is slowly going away. The area is still raised due to swelling. The dryness is horrid and nothing seems to help. I still get some burning sensation on one area I applied this on my cheek despite not using this for 4 days and having washed my face every evening and morning since. I would only recommend this if your skin is tough and can take the usage of this more than one time in a row.

I started Clinique when I was a broke 14 year old whose face was an oily sheen dotted with yellow bumps and her pulled fully back into a pony tail showing my mess of a face for all to see. It started as a gift- the set which lasted me about 3 months and boy were those months the best. My face was less oily and less covered in this yellow dots. But then I finished it and I didn't have the money for it. 3 years by and I had enough money to cover Clinique for the next 3 years- there was improvements, not the greatest, but improvements nonetheless. Eventually I decided to drop because the price was so expensive and my skin had become accustomed- it was like throwing money into the drain basically. Overall, it really helped my mild/mod acne during my HS/College years.

I want to start out by saying I never write reviews. That's how amazing this product is. Anyway, Last summer my acne started getting quite bad (moderate-severe) to the point where I never left my house for months straight and started staying home from school. Then I started acne.org and although it took about 3 months (which is what it says in the guidelines that it will take) I have completely clear skin now! I NEVER get pimples anymore and have never been more happy! Please take my word and get this product it honestly saved my skin and my confidence. I go out makeup less ALL the time and feel confident doing so!

So I have been struggling with mild acne for over three years now. I should consider myself lucky/blessed to only be mild acne there is much worse out there, but having it constantly and waking up everyday with two or more new pimples really can begin to take digs at your self-confidence and self-esteem - which I now have none. I have tried a quite a few over the counter remedies, home remedies, pill and even acne tablets but NOTHING has worked! I had come across acne.org before but was skeptical about buying online - about three-four weeks ago I caved in and ordered, I was desperate! So far, I can report that I am still waking up every day with new pimples.. my scarring /marks are deeper and darker then what they were prior to this treatment (once again effecting my self-esteem), and my face is still EXTREMELY DRY. I always wear make-up when I am out and about, and even then my confidence is non-existent because by the end of the day it is gross, dry and crinkly - but still its better in my mind's eye then walking around with my acne on full display. My acne affects my social life as well.. I've made excuses to cancel events because of my skin - it ruins my life. I will still with this treatement... I might order another 80z... but if I don't see any more improvements I will give it a toss. I am hopeful that soon it will help my skin but as for now I still suffer. Hope this helps.

I've just used regimen for 7 days and my skin getting worse day by day. I am so dessperated and stressful about my ances. What should i do now?

I will never ever buy these products again! I have followed this system exactly how Dan said and 3 weeks in I have had to go to the doctor and have been given steroid cream to apply to my face due to a huge inflamed rash all over my face I have tiny bumps all over my face to it's horribly itchy and super irriatated I'm so so disappointed in these products. Happy for everyone it's working for but this didn't not work for me one bit!

I tried Accutane when I was 14 and it cleared up my skin but after a couple of years i begun to break out again. I went on the pill but it made very moody and emotionally unstable. I've tried every chemist product you can think of, I used proactive and that actually worked for me but while travelling I lost the bottle and my skin broke out worst then ever, when I finally got a new bottle it had no effect on my acne and actually made it worst. Spiralactlone did nothing but give me slight heart palpitations and antibiotics did nothing. I've tried estroblock and natural hormone supplements. Liver supplements. I've washed my face with oils and also tried not washing it at all. I've watched million of YouTube videos and follow instagram pages. I'm 27, how is this normal??? I started Carleys Clean and Clear a week ago and I can already tell the difference!!!! I will be sure to keep everyone update. TRY IT!!! WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOOSE? They sent me all these free samples as well and all have worked wonders on my skin. I would stay at homes on weekends because of my skin. I still Have scaring but now I can have makeup on without the lumps and bumps. This is just wonderful!!! X

This seriously is the best acne treatment out there. I'm never using anything else ever again. I didn't have horrible acne, but it was bad enough for me to not want to go out in the world. I mostly had clusters of breakouts on my chin, forehead and upper lip, then would get a pimple here and there on my cheeks. The breakouts on my chin and upper lip were BAD. I used salycilic acid from clean and clear as a spot treatment every night. I washed my face every morning and night with the Demi Lovato skin care line (the cleanser, toner and primer). But I still kept breaking out and my existing acne wasn't going away. I was starting to actually get cysts on my chin and when that happened I was like, okay something has to change. My younger sister had worse acne than I did and I noticed that her skin had cleared up considerably so I asked her what she did and she said she used this stuff from acne.org. So I went online and bought the regimen (the cleanser, benzoyl peroxide treatment, the lotion and AHA). I didn't know if it would work at first because I tried benzoyl peroxide a couple of years ago in high school and it didn't work and just tried my skin out. But I bought it anyway and tried it. I followed the steps very carefully. I washed my face very gently. I splashed water on my face and lathered the cleanser in my hands before applying it to my face, then I gently in circular motions rubbed the cleanser on my face for less than 10 seconds. I was skeptical about this at first because I didn't think that was enough time to get all the dirt and makeup and such off of my face, but it apparently gets the job done. Granted, I don't wear a lot of makeup. I wear coverup under my eyes for my dark circles lol and then I wear some blush or bronzer and then a little bit of eyeliner and mascara. Before I cleansed though I carefully took my mascara off with water and used make up remover for my eyeliner but that's it. After cleansing I used a clean towel to pat my face dry and let the rest of the water dry on its own like it says to do. Then when my face was fully dry I applied the treatment. I only applied the treament where I had acne. So just my chin, forehead and upper lip, then on the spots where I had random pimples on my cheeks. I used a little less than a dime sized amount in total. Then I waited for that to dry completely and put on the lotion. THE LOTION IS WEIRD. I was like "this is trash" at first but I used it anyway. I put one pump in total all over my face. At first it really does not absorb into the skin. You can rub it around all you want and it just wont absorb into your skin. But I just let it dry on my face (it takes about 5-10 minutes to dry) and it REALLY moisturizes my skin. I have really oily skin and before I started using this, throughout the day I would have to wipe my face with those oil wipes you can buy at the drugstore like twice a day. Its super uncomfortable if you know what I'm talking about! I'm pretty sure my face was overcompensating natural oils because my face wasnt getting enough moisture. But this moisturizer is so good I literally never feel oily ever. Now, when I first started the regimen, I was applying the benzoyl peroxide treatment every night. For the first couple of days I was fine, but on the fourth or fifth day my face starting getting REALLY dry around my mouth. So I bought this CeraVe moisturizing cream and applied it to the dry spots like every 6 hours. That helped a lot with the dryness. I stoped using the treatment every night and changed it to 3 times a week. Basically, this stuff is seriously amazing. In just the first 3 days I my face cleared up considerably. I haven't broken out once yet (even when I'm on my monthly thing). Its also fading my acne scars which is AMAZING. It seriously has such fast results I just don't understand how. I've only been using it for about a week and I am SO happy with my skin. Almost all my acne is gone I'm not even kidding. I haven't even used the AHA yet (because you're supposed to wait for about a month before using it) and my acne scars are fading fast. Throughout my high school years and before a week ago I had been using so many different things to get my skin to clear up, natural remedies like tea tree oil, the body shop products, lush products and just generic stuff from target or walmart and literally nothing works like this stuff does. If you have tried everything and feel like there is no hope BUY THIS STUFF. It literally saved my life and I feel very confident going out in public with no makeup on. Thank you acne.org!!!!!!!

first let me tell you, that i am a highschool senior.. so i know all about the pressure of perfect skin!!! i never really had acne until my freshman year, even then it wasn't that bad.. only a frw breaks out.. but i had them 24/7 & they would not go away for anything. i tried many soups, masks, washes, even got facials, nothing worked! so i started researching & cake apon this site! & it was the best thing i ever did! i have been using this regimen for about 4 weeks know, along with the cleanser & moisturizer (bought in the kit) & my face cleared up within a week, i still have one breakout on my check, that does not seem to want to leave!! other then that, this has helped me so much! i no longer have to wear foundation, nor worry about make up clogging my pores even more then they were!!

I've been using this regimen for 3 weeks now. The BP really helped with my oily t-zone; but it really broke me out in my chin area. I get cystic acne pimples and I have 8 on my chin. I'm so disappointed and upset. I'm not sure if I should continue with this regimen. I have not added in the AHA yet I'm kinda scared. Not sure what to do. I've never had this much breakout at one time before. I have a wedding to attend in a couple of weeks and I'm really upset and nervous about my face. Please help?????
