Topical Keratolytic
Acne.org’s Real World Take
Easy to find and with low side effects, but don’t be surprised if you are left wishing for better results after using it for a while. Any acid on its own is unlikely to dramatically clear acne.

Product used: Dermafina (Clear Skin Acne System)
Pros:
It didn't dry my skin out like most acne meds do. I am African American so it also got rid of my dark spots that come from my acne.
Cons:
It's discontinued!!!!
I am trying to find out where to get this or something remotely close to it. I used it right after I had my daughter 3 years ago. But when I started my birth control a few months ago my skin totally flared up. Now I can't find it anywhere. The only thing that is popping up when I Google Dermafina is this spray stuff. I guess it's made by the same company but I want the old regimine back.

Product used: Neutrogena (Body Clear Body Wash)
Pros:
Cleared up my back acne quite well
Cons:
none
I had mild acne on my back mostly from hair products that I would use or conditioners. I started using this as my last step in the shower and my back is so much smoother than it was before.

Product used: Aveeno (Clear Complexion Daily Moisturizer)
Pros:
Makes my skin really smooth, goes on nice, smells pretty good.
Cons:
Not good if you have oily skin. Doesn't really help acne.
Keeps skin moisturized pretty good. Try it if you don't have a problem with oily skin.

Product used: Clearasil (Ultra Acne Clearing Scrub)

It's a one step process unlike others that require three. It really works. My skin cleared up in a matter of 3 days.

Can't think of any.
It works.

Product used: Clean & Clear (Dual Action Moisturizer Oil-Free)
Pros:
ehh.
Cons:
When I put it on, my skin felt "filmy" even though I didn't put on very much and even though it was filmy, my skin still felt dry regardless that it looked otherwise.
I still have a whole bottle of it. Wouldn't recommend.

Pros:
INSTANTLY softens skin and overtime fades marks! A little goes a long way . . . it has been exactly one year since I stopped proactiv (which made me break out like crazy) and started the CSR and used this product. NO more acne, or marks! Im Happy
Cons:
none
Try it, if it doesn't help with marks (which it WILL overtime) then it will soften your skin and you can tell the difference. The crystals exfoliate the skin so your skin looks more polished b/c it removes the dead skin cells. The smell isn't bad at all...I actually like it.
