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: Clearasil (Ultra Acne Clearing Scrub)
Cons:
it doesn't help your acne. i used it for probably a year as just a face wash for morning/night. nothing ever cleared up.
you can buy any old facewash for cheaper than this. the 3 day thing is not true. don't bother.

Product used: Clean & Clear (Dual Action Moisturizer Oil-Free)
Pros:
personally, i love the fragrance.
it leaves a nice, cool tingling feel on my face after i apply it.
Cons:
don't put multiple layers on, one is enough.
i find this moisturizer very gentle, and is great for people who only get a bit of acne.
it won't however, get rid of your current pimples, but it will prevent future breakouts.
i clean/exfoliate my face with clean&clear daily pore cleanser, then apply this.
keeps my face clean for quite a bit of time.

Pros:
Lightens acne scars and discolorations. No need to use more than a drop for a few scars.
Cons:
Bad smell, but is worth it for the results.
This product really works. I don't have severe acne, but a few breakouts once and a while. I have super oily skin and is the main reason why I breakout. I had a few noticeable acne scars, and after I've used this fading peel, I noticed them lightening. They were not as red/pinkish and noticeable. After about two weeks, I can hardly tell they are there anymore. I continue using the fading peel in order to competely eliminate the darkened pigment. Great product, really works! (who cares about the smell if it works?)

Product used: Clean & Clear (Advantage Acne Spot Treatment)
Pros:
easy to apply, when dries, easy to put make-up over, does not leave you overly dry or oily.
Cons:
stung for the first week or two, but i have adjusted
I have tried soloyn and many other prescriptions and topicals but none have been as this spot treatment, which i use as an all over topical on a nightly basis. works fantastics with the clean and clear advantage acne control moisturizer, which comes in a kit with the spot treatment. sorry to see so much negative feedback

Product used: Aveeno (Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser)

Product used: Burt's Bees (Natural Acne Solutions Kit)
Pros:
Tomato toner rocks! And I love their chapstick!
Cons:
Burt's bees herbal blemish removing stick- stung and irritated the skin...made the blemish last longer than if I just leave them alone.
Pretty great!
February 3, 2008
Pros:
Not that expensive, maybe helped a little with older acne marks.
Cons:
Not that effective. It still left redness, after once or twice a week use. I only left in on for ten minutes like it says to do on the package. I have sensitive skin and it would be red for a while after I rinsed this off. Smell isn't too bad.
Try again.
