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 Spot Treatment)
Pros:
-Eventually cleared up most of my pimples.
Cons:
-Slightly burns
I've been using this spot treatment on & off for a long time, whenever I get bad breakouts. It usually does clear up the pimples, but it takes at least a few days. & even after the pimple is gone, there is still a little red scar, but that's always what my pimples do =/ lol. I do recommend this product, it seems to work well for a lot of people, & works fairly well for me, which is why I continue to turn to it when my breakouts come knockin! lol

Product used: Neutrogena (Body Clear Body Wash)
Pros:
It's thick, so once it's lathered up it stays on your skin until you want to rinse.
Cons:
My skin is itchy
I've been using it for about 2 weeks. I am about 1/4 through the bottle. It seems to be working for the larger zits. My skin has always been bumpy and kind of rough (small little white heads) and it is not helping that..
After reading these reviews I am not giving up...I have been ising the product consistently and will use it. According to some of you, after one bottle I should notice a huge difference.

Product used: Clean & Clear (Blackhead Clearing Scrub)
Pros:
*Cheap in boots
*works!!!
*lots of helpful reviews!
Cons:
*bitty an gets in your hair
*doesn't help spots on 1st day
this product makes skin REALLY soft. I am 13 years old female and have some spots, but not bad acne, just a few on my nose ans cheeks. Nothing really helps, ut this brung my blackheads to the surface on the first use, and secondly washes them away on the evening use
(cost in english pounds!)

Product used: Biore (Blemish Fighting Ice Cleanser)
Pros:
-Nice smooth fell
-Pleasant cooling effect
-Clears up skin to a certan degree
-Clears up the general allure of your skin
Cons:
-makes skin dry, maybe even a bit flacky
I really love this product, I use it at least twice a day, I have miste skin so it does dry it but thats something I easily fix with the face moisturizer, I would suggest the one from that brand but from the purple line. Also, since this is a face wash and I usually try to take products from the same brand assuming that they compliment each other I don't like to mixt and match, but this line doesn't have an acne cream to put after its multiple washes only an astrigent I suggest you buy the 2% bezoyld peroxide from oxy so that its not to harsh on your skin, or from any other brand (I use the left overs I have from proactiv since I got scammed as well) But honestly if you follow the regime I showed you it works very well for both mixte and oily skin. It's definetily worht a try, it cleared a lot of my cheeks and chin and made the general allure of my skin smoother.

Product used: Burt's Bees (Natural Acne Solutions Kit)
Pros:
ACNE SOLUTIONS SYSTEM
Reduces redness, makes skin look more healthy overall
Cons:
Fewer breakouts, but they were more severe
I used the system for just over two months. The first couple weeks, my moderate acne decreased and I noticed my skin appeared more "healthy" (more even, fewer blemishes). After about the third week though, if I was to breakout, my acne would be large, cystic acne that was painful. I continued for a few more weeks hoping that it was just clearing my skin of any bacteria, but the acne kept reappearing. I think the product could be good if you have light to moderate acne, but nothing worse. I have since switched to the Clinique Acne Solutions and just after a week of use, most of my acne has cleared up.

Pros:
Keeps skin smooth by exfoliating, refreshes skin, keeps skin clear
Cons:
None.
This wash is great! I rely on this stuff. Before I started using it, I couldn't keep my skin exfoliated enough--I use Retin-A and the skin needs to keep shredding otherwise it just makes the breakouts worse, with the dead skin sticking it your face. This stuff does that without irritating my skin (and I have really sensitive skin). My skin feels so soft and actually completely clean after use.
Pros:
smells great
