Customer Reviews of Neutrogena Complete Acne Therapy System
Customer Review: Its ok
Summary: 3 Stars
this product is OK. its way better than any normal facewash you buy from any brand but its also their "advanced" solution to acne. ive used it for about 8 months now and my acne did improve but hasnt cleared up for a few months now. i never had a clear face using this which was dissappointing. i also had to stop using the sunblock lotion because it was actually making my acne worse. i have horrible blackheads on my nose and pretty bad around my hair line and side burns. i decided to look up more about getting my face cleared up and found out i need to change my shampoo and conditioner. also i recommend getting a sulfur/zinc mask with this. sulfur is very very important for fighting acne.
acid = takes out dead skin cells
peroxide = kills bacteria
sulfur = unclogs pores (most masks also shrink pores)
and the part about the hair products, a lot of people are allergic to their shampoos/conditioners but dont know it. if you get breakouts on your neck, back, and hairline then change what your using! i recommend magick botanicals for their very simple ingredients and good price.Shampoo-Oil/Fragrance Free - 16 oz. - Liquid
Customer Review: Effective Acne Fighting System
Summary: 4 Stars
I am someone who has had moderate acne since about the 6th grade. I have tried many, many products that claim to be miracle workers when it comes to clearing up acne, even some very expensive ones, but none of them did much for my moderate acne. I decided to try the 3 piece Neutrogena Advanced Soultions Acne Therapy Treatment Kit and I can tell you that it does great things for my skin. I can also tell you that now I only get a few pimples here and there, but none that are too large (or painful) or that last very long.
This product has 3 steps (and 3 products in it)
The first product (step) is the face wash, which is my favorite part. It is effective in cleaning and killing off the bacteria that form and cause the pimples. It is also a great exfoliator and leaves my skin feeling smooth.
The 2nd product is the acne cream that you apply morning and night. This works to fight and prevent the acne.
The 3rd product (which I personally do not use) is just an spf-15 face cream. Personally I find it to be useless and does not smell that great. I use my own face cream. I wish they would get rid of this lotion and lower the price!
Overall this product is great and I recommend it.
Customer Review: Skin Polishing Face Wash seems to be the CULPRIT
Summary: 2 Stars
I've used many different kinds of products and systems. Crazy to think how much money I've spent over the years. However, NOTHING was as drying and irritating as this. It felt OK after the first use. After repeated uses however, my face and neck were so dry and irritated it hurt to make facial expressions.
I tried using it just every other day and moisturizing frequently and it helped a little, but the combination of all three products still made my face really uncomfortable.
Eventually I abandoned it and went back to one of my favorite products which is the Neutrogena 2 in 1 blackhead removing pads. They aren't very strong, only 0.5% SA and they're very good at removing dead skin. It helped my skin recover a lot.
I began to think that it wasn't the either the acne lotion or moisturizer that made my skin so dry because i've used 2.5% BP before and it was fine. And well, if a moisturizer is drying, that makes little sense. So I began using the pads instead of the polishing wash and then put the acne control lotion and the moisturizer on after.
Seems to work better. Not nearly as drying. I don't exactly what's in the wash. I've never had such a bad reaction to an SA wash before.
Customer Review: Affordable and Amazing treatment for adult acne
Summary: 4 Stars
I am 25 years old and my face has been breaking out more frequently. I don't have terrible acne, but when I break out I get pretty bad blemish spots for a period of time. I have tried everything like washing pillow cases multiple times a week, washing my hair brush, switching make-up. Nothing has helped. I've even paid a dermatologist hundreds of dollars for prescription medications that really don't work.
Today is Monday. I bought this product on Friday and started using it that night. My face is already notably brighter and clearer. 90% of my blemishes have already disappeared. I even noticed these last 3 days that my face isn't near as oily during the day as it used to be.
ONLY WARNING: Be very careful when using the cleanser and acne control lotion around your eyes. I was very careful not to get it near my eyes, yet I still had some irritation on the outside corner of my eye. I used a little Curel original formula lotion (any non-scented lotion) on it, though, and it cleared up. If you have sensitive skin or skin that dries out easily I would also use some type of night moisturizer (I use Neutrogena's light night cream).
Customer Review: I never had such a clear skin :)))
Summary: 5 Stars
I do love it! My skin is so clear, that I still am amazed. I bought it in store on sale, I thought it was wirth a shot. Few months earlier i purchased Aveeno Clear Complexion (no fragnance, natural...) I thought I made a good choice, but I was so mad- my face started to get worse and worse- meaning more pimples. I did not wanted to throw away the product, so I used the whole bottle, but all the time I was using it- I can say that product did not help at all, made it just worse every week... I also used Proactive in past and it did not really help...
First day I started using Neutrogena my pimples were reducing... I have been using it for two weeks now, and even if I get a pimple- I put acne lotion on it and it get better next day. There is only one little complain- my skin is very dry after washing it with cleaning solution, and after applying lotion, it still is a little dry, so I additionally purchased Neutrogena Oil Free moisturising lotion, and my skin feels really nice after that.
Overally I am very satisfied. I'm 25 years old and I don't remember when my face was so clear
