This lotion didn't do anything for my acne. It didn't clear up the zits that I already had and it didn't prevent new ones from appearing. What a disappointing waste of money.

I would buy this again and again. It glides on my skin easily and absorbs quickly. I am left with no stickiness. This is not a moisturizer but a treatment so I need to apply a moisturizer after...

This is the first and only thing that cleared up my face and I've been using it for well over a decade. I can't compare it to the new stuff that's out there, but this saved me from all that acne...

I used this on a regular basis but only during the day as a lotion. It seemed to do very little. Then I decided I would use it day and night. And it seemed to really work at first! After a couple...

God I get misty-eyed from writing this review. Well, I would not buy this again, threw it out when it got to 30% left. At the beginning, it worked fine for me, it stung everytime I would apply it...

I used 1 and 1/2 bottles of this and then stopped. It was a nice, light moisturizer that didn't cause extra problems, but I don't know if it really helped to stop my pimples. I had my acne under...

This is the only step in the trilogy that I actually found useful. It's great for spot treatments or to put on overnight. It tends to dry out skin but that's why it's good for wearing overnight as...

Thank God for Proactiv! I used proactiv several years ago. It did a great job clearing up my moderate acne. Since I was now blemish-free, I stopped using it. My skin was clear for a while, but...

This product is great because it contains 2.5% BP which cures most acne and it cleared up mine in no time and kept it at bay. The problem is that I'm on a tight budget and I hate the price of...
