Awesome product

Pros:

Clears acne super fast
face is soft and normal looking ( pore size)
comes with lotion/ sunscreen so my face isn't too dry in the morning.

Cons:

A little pricey
doesn't work on dark marks too well.
a little drying when lotion isn't used.

I have been using this product for about a week. The first night i used it, my skin was dry and i felt as though i had wasted my money because my face was so irritated . The next morning I looked AMAZING!!! all my acne had either cleared or gotten smaller. The irritation bumps that were so hard to get rid of were gone with one use. I recommend this to everybody i know. Works wonders.

Pros:

clears acne
fast results
makes skin soft

Cons:

drys skin a little at first

This worked very well for me. When I first started to use it did dry out my skin so I only use it at night and just use the spf lotion in the morning. It clears acne right away only hav a few spots but barely noticeable. It makes my skin really soft. I love this product.

Pros:

Nightime solution:Quick on the spot treatment
Cleanser: not harsh, doesn't sting or burn
Daytime Lotion: Light, not oily

Cons:

I ran out of the Daytime Lotion before the other two. I think because I had to use quite a bit to moisturize my skin.

Absolutely the only acne treatment I have loved & stuck with. It's really easy & I feel that I have come to better understand my skin & prevent major breakouts. Even though I ran out of the Daytime lotion early I picked up the Neutrogena Oil Free Moisture Lotion with SPF 15 which is a great moisturizer.

Pros:

-Fades some acne quickly
-Not too overdrying

Cons:

-Produced some new blemishes
-Burns and stings
-Does not really work

I've been using this system for about 1 week now. I expected to see some results by this point, but I am disappointed. I have moderate acne and I've been on prescriptions (Benzaclin., Tazorac, Retin-A) that kind of worked but hurt my face. About 6 months ago I stopped using all prescriptions and decided to try over the counter again. I've tried some other Neutrogena products that worked, but not for long. So, I decided to try this acne kit. The facewash and the acne lotion burn and make my skin red and irritated (even with oil free moisturizer). My skin seems less oily, which is good, but I still have some blemishes. I noticed that some little blemishes I had started to fade quickly with the treatment, but I also have noticed NEW BLEMISHES, including blackheads, which I did not really get many of before. I'm going to give this kit a few more days to see if anything changes, but I am not optimistic. Thankfully Neutrogena offers a 90 DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE, which I plan to take advantage of. I do not recommend this product.

Pros:

helps clear
smells good

Cons:

your skin gets immune to it then it stops working after a month or so

this product never fully cleared my face, but it definitely helped keep it under control for about two months. after two months my face just became immune to it the same way proactiv did. fail...not worth the price paid. baking soda works better than this! and its like 99cents

Pros:

Helped clear acne.

Cons:

Made my skin dry.

Awesome! I love this product. It helped me so much whenever i had breakouts! Cleared most of my acne but it didn't prevent them.
December 28, 2010

Pros:

Well, I liked the sunscreen moisturizer. It's the only thing from this set that I still use.

Cons:

THIS BROKE ME OUT BAD!
my face was swollen for 3-4 days! ;[
I think the break-out was partly due to the fact that i may be allergic to the BP in one of the lotions.

WOULD NEVER BUY AGAIN

Pros:

It worked pretty well!

Cons:

It doesn't come with a moisturizer.

When I went on a vacation to California, my skin cleared almost completely. But I don't know if it was the sun, or the treatment. Then, I ran out before I got home and have not gotten it again. I will review again when I get it again.

Pros:

It works ok.

Cons:

It smells really gross, it makes my face itch and sting a bit, i hate the gel texture, the cleanser is really hard to rub into your face. the screw on caps suck.

Bad product! Smelly, sticky, gross!!!
