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: Clean & Clear (Advantage Acne Cleanser)
Cons:
It made my face so oily and dry and bumpy all at the same time.
I've never been so embarrassed about my face in my life. I've never had acne before until I found out I had Crohns Disease and had to be on steroids for a couple months. My face was bumpy but not that bad. Now since I've used the clean and clear advantage there is not a spot on my face that isn't bumpy. I don't like to even leave the house now. Who would of thought acne treatment could make acne soooo much worst. I wish I read these reviews before I used it. I'm going to try Neutrogena spotID next.

Product used: Neutrogena (Body Clear Body Wash)
Pros:
Nice lather
Washes away oil/bacteria
Keeps body zits at bay
My boyfriend has complained to me about his "backne" so I bought this for him. He's been using it for about a month now, and while his back isn't 100% pimple-free, his skin does look noticeably smoother and more even-toned.

Hepled get rid of my acne, it was what I was looking for FOREVER. I have tried EVERYTHING! but this, this was really different!! IT'S SO MUCH BETTER THAN ANYTHING. and you know it's gonna be good because it costs quite a bit. but i believe it'll work

Expencive, quite a bit pricy.
GO OUT AND BUY IT IF YOU HAVE MILD-MODERATE ACNE.
I recommend buying these to complete everything:
- Foaming Gel ($20)

about $60.00 for all those products including tax.

Product used: Arbonne (Clear Advantage System)
Pros:
Works great, smells great.
Cons:
It takes a while to work.
It takes a few weeks to really see results, I was very frustrated with this product at first but kept using it. I've tried every product you can think of Murad, Proactiv, every over the counter acne product, expensive doctor perscribed medications and nothing worked for me. I started using Arbonne and the first few weeks my skin was horrible, it was worse than when I started but I stuck with it and now my skin looks amazing, its not perfectly clear because I have a lot of scaring but it cleared up all the pimples and blackheads.
