Review: This stuff is amazing!!! - Okay, listen. I don't normally write reviews, even though I base most of my shopping life decisions on them. Selfish, I know. But this calls for some reform. For whatever reason, my ever perfect skin decided to take a turn for the worst sometime around my 30th birthday. Go figure. I'm going to blame hormones, since I've ruled out every other possibility. I started having major breakouts in the last few weeks, enough that I didn't even want to put on makeup simply because it just made it look worse, and I am a makeup JUNKIE. Enter Neutrogena Complete Acne Therapy System. I recall using this once before, probably preemptively (since my skin hasn't even been THIS bad), and discontinued use shortly thereafter. I did notice some mild improvement over time. Let me get to the point here. THIS STUFF WORKS. I received my shipment in the mail on Wednesday and it's now Friday. The breakout is 75% gone, hands down! I mean, within 48 hours I managed to get rid of nearly all blemishes on my face. Of course there will be some long-term care to get rid of acne spots and hyperpigmentation, but when it comes to clearing acne, I'll never look any further than this kit. This is not without a few side effects, in my experience. The product is rather harsh, and while I don't typically classify my skin as sensitive (more combination/oily), this did give me a slight rash around the eyes. Not necessarily bumps, but a bit of extra puffiness and redness. Needless to say, I will most likely only use the system 2-3 days a week lieu of daily use, once my skin has fully cleared. I'm almost positive the Acne Control Lotion is the real MVP here, but it needs to be used sparingly, almost as a spot treatment. I've resorted to uber-moisturizing my normally oily skin, just to combat the over-drying caused by this product. While this may be off-putting to some, it was so worth it to have clear skin again! I highly recommend this product!!!
Review: It's a good product - I have a moderate acne problem, nothing too serious, but still embarrassing enough on a man of my age that I feel a need to do whatever I can to get rid of it. My sister recommended using this acne therapy system on my face to get rid of my pimples, so I figured I would give it a shot and try it. I actually used it for a full two weeks before making an informed decision about its success and I'll have to say, not the most successful. It's a good product, definitely, but I was still missing the deep cleaning and acne prevention I was looking for. I went online and found TreeActiv Anti Acne & Rosacea Treatment Sulfur Mask Plus Rhassoul, Bentonite Clay Mask with Witch Hazel & Aloe Vera - Refreshing Lemon Scent (1 Jar) (4 Oz) , which had great reviews for exactly the sort of cleaning I was looking for. I started using this as an exfoliator two times a week, concurrently with the Neutrogena system, and I saw much better results! My acne stopped forming as much and the existing acne minimized and there was a lot less redness on my face. I think the mask helped because the sulfur and tea tree oil work as a deep clean and as a preventative measure for future acne. Satisfied with the results I even ordered the same company's TreeActiv+ Tea Tree Oil Acne Solution for Advanced Acne Treatment - All Natural Acne Spot Treatment - Blemishes Gone or Your Money Back! (60ml) , which I read was good for spot treatments and BONUS--I also found info online that I could use it to help with razor bumps for shaving, which is like, a life saver for me. I think the Neutrogena is a really good product, it just needs to be used with other things, which is why I give it four stars rather than five. I recommend all of these products.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where can I just buy the Acne Control Lotion in this pack? - Amazon shows a similar product but it's different.**
A: Just look for a Benzoyl Peroxide lotion, this one is 2.5% with no irritating products added (that a lot of acne products do). I too think this is the best product in the box, although the moisturizer is deceptively effective and VERy non-pimple forming - which is rare. But if you don't use the other products, I'd try 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide Dr Song Acne Gel, or Acne.org 8 oz. Treatment (2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide), or Paula's Choice Clear Regular Strength Acne Treatment with 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide. They are more expensive than this set, but you get up to 8x as much Benzoyl Peroxide.

**Q: How do I use this? Wash face with cleanser, then apply the acne control lotion and let it dry overnight? Is the regular lotion necessary to use or is it only if you're having a lot of dryness? 
Finally. Is this a good product? Been using acnefree for years and that was good, but I can't find the regular one in stores …**
A: I've been using this system for over 8 years because it works. I'm 41 years old now and I have PCOS that causes acne. So, I'll probably be using this until menopause. The original instructions when this product first came onto the market was to use the wash before bed, apply a THIN layer of the acne contol lotion (more like a mask than lotion), taking care to avoid the oribits of the eyes. Allow to dry and leave on during sleep. In the morning, be sure to wash again with the cleanser and apply a tiny bit of the SPF acne lotion, as your skin is very UV sensitive after the all night treatment. There is salylic acid in the "night" treatment, so avoid UV if your face can't handle SPF lotion. Mine can't, so I use Neutrogena sensitive face moisturizer and wear visors or wide brimmed hats and avoid the sun during treatment. I only need to use it about 1 or 2 times a month for 3 days if I have a break out. I can usually pre-empt a breakout with 1 night's treatment if I see a few bumps begin. This product is amazing, and I have even dedicated my make up brand to Neutrogena.

**Q: I just got this system and used it for the first time and i noticed after using all the products my pimples got sooo red did this happen to you? whyme**
A: I've used it for weeks on and off and  never had that problem on the contrary  it really helps me control breakouts (?)I would stop using it,  there's got to be an ingredient that is causing that.

**Q: Why is this product making my skin very dry, tight feeling, and ashy?**
A: The acne control lotion is not a moisturizer, it is a benzoyl peroxide solution that will dry out your skin. After applying the acne lotion, apply the moisturizer to keep your skin protected and hydrated.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I LOVE this stuff
*by S***L on September 30, 2012*

Let me first say I've struggled with breakouts since the age of 15. I'm now 29, and I still break out. I have ups and downs, and after going through my first pregnancy, then breastfeeding for a year, starting a new birth control, my hormones have been all over the place the past 2+ years and my skin was suffering. Now, I tried Proactiv (again) because I had had great luck with it in my early 20's. However, I seemed to have built up a tolerance to it so quit using it at about age 24-25. This time it SERIOUSLY irritated my skin. It was red, it hurt, it was tight and dry. I used it every other day, as recommended, and after 3 weeks my skin was worse than ever. Mind you, this was all happening at the same time I had started taking Loestrin Fe for the first time. So, that could have been a factor as well. It was hard to know what was causing the flare-up, but Proactiv made it SO much worse. But, all I know is that I ordered this stuff and within 5 days my skin felt and looked WAY better. I have been using it for about 6 months now and love it. It's not a miracle worker, I don't have 100% perfect skin, but I know I never will. But it is considerably better, and when I do get breakouts (still hormone-related, as it's always during "that time of the month") it's not bad at all. Bottom line: it is effective w/out being so harsh on your skin like Proactiv. I am buying more of it, I love it. I would highly recommend you try this if you've tried other methods, have stubborn breakouts, and have found Proactiv either too harsh or that it loses its effectiveness.
