I'm scared that if i use it for a while it will stop working because my face will get used to it

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
Pimples dry up a lot faster.
Cons:
Bleaches your bedsheets, if you have dark colored sheets, it will turn yellow in a few days. Face looks greasy all day when you put it on. Smells like crap, and don't let anyone kiss you on the cheek.
I guess it works for some people, but not me.

Product used: Carley's (Clear and Smooth Skin Treatment)
Pros:
Bought it from eBay the scrub,the soap and the lotion. Great price and fast shipping. Less acne than before worth a try when it's all natural.
Cons:
Don't help with the hormone acne, cos I'm a girl and every month of that periode it would not help at all.
I never heard of this "brand" before i checked eBay out for some months ago. And I thought it's all natural+super great feedback, then i gave it a try. The package came really fast to Norway. Great package and soooo many free items, like samples. They really cared about the pakaged, packed really good and carefully. I'm impressed with that. I started to use it right away, throwed everything else in to a garbage. After 2 weeks, i noticed it. My acne on the cheeks were gone (and still don't have it now either :D) But I have some diffeculty with acne around my mouth area, and I'm aware that it's because of my hormones. So I guess this is NOT THE ONLY SOLUTION TO A BETTER SKIN! So i think i have to try out supplyment (naturally ofcourse), because it's the only way, or zinc. somthing like that, but anyway this is impress. The soap and dryed my skin a little, but the scrub and lotion was so moizturied. Hightly recommended! PS: i have sensitive skin and mostly dry.

Product used: AcneFree (24 Hour Acne Clearing System)
Pros:
Much lower cost than Proactiv, and for me it has worked ten times better! I began using it about 4 months ago and haven't had a breakout since. My face has retained a healthy, polished look, and my acne scars are beginning to fade nicely. I love it!
Cons:
When you first begin using the product, it burns quite a bit and your skin will peel a lot. However, after about a month this stopped and now I can't even feel it when I use it. Sometimes the cleanser has a hard time getting out of the bottle.
Everyone has different skin, and for me this product has worked wonders. I used to have rather sever acne, but now my skin is looking healthy for the first time since I was 12 (I'm 20 now). I would suggest that everyone give it a try, since it does not cost as much as most other systems.

Product used: Acne.org (Treatment (Benzoyl Peroxide - 2.5%))
Pros:
- Zapped away the bloody zits into oblivion!
- Speedy delivery
Cons:
- Took 3 full months before it totally worked
- Dries skin out/makes skin red at first, but that's where moisturizers come in
I've been using the product for 4 months strong now. Basically, the first week I felt my skin feel incredible albeit very tight & flaky. From week 2 or 3 onwards I began having horrendous breakouts, which scarred my confidence for life (heck I even skipped lectures or meetings if I had too large a cyst!) But after exactly 3 months of consistent (ok maybe I skipped a day or 2 coz I dozed off) my skin feels so clear I can't believe it's my skin. Althou the bloody scars linger on to remind me of my agony, still Dan's BP & website is the best thing since, well, BP! You just have to be patient & consistent with it. Believe me, with time it WILL work, if I quit b4 I'd still be miserable & paying tons on various products. Thanks Dan!

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
Gets rid of most acne
Cons:
expensive, really harsh, dries skin out
i've been using proactiv for awhile now, and it cleared up all the little bumps on my forehead which no other cleanser could do. my skin isn't sensitive, but i started to peel the first few weeks i used this and because this is a scrub, it is more harsh. i still get occasional breakouts, maybe once or twice a month. it's pretty good, but definately not as good as the infomercial says (of course)

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Acne Treatment System)
Pros:
Results are noticed immedietley within a few days.
Cons:
You have to use it atleast twice a day for anyone who really has bad acne.
The first few months of using Proactive you really do notice a big difference. After about 4 months into using the product regularly it doesn't seem to work anymore. Acne seems to apear again, possibly not as bad as before, but it just doesn't seem to do anything anymore.

Product used: Brevoxyl-4 (Benzoyl Peroxide (4%) Cream)
Pros:
It got rid of some pimples on my chin
Cons:
It totally dried my skin and made it flaky. After I used it my skin stung and hurt so bad and my whole face was red as if I had a sunburn.
I've only been using if for a week or so but the side effects have been horrible. I dont know if I should continue using it or not. Will my skin eventually get used to it?
March 25, 2008
Pros:
not oily, the face scrub is amazing, and overall works great!
Cons:
the night gel tends to make my face stiff and dry, but the effects are great!
I have only been using this system 1 day and I can already see the changes. my acne has gotten smaller and my skin is so much softer! I love it!
Pros:
the best, and work's very good
