I am a 27 year old mother of 2 and I seriously thought that I'd never stop looking like a hormonal teen mom! I have been using this 3 step system on and off for 2 years. I'd always stop using because I'd switch to something new that was supposed to work better. Then I went the all natural route with essential oil blends and toners and bam. Back to this. Nothing ever took care of my deep as heck pores on my nose and tzone area, I'd get terrible cysts on my jawline and sometimes forehead that would take weeks to disappear and I have tried almost EVERY single brand out there. Anti agents i have found work best on my skin. Glycolic and aha /bha acids are my fav. LOL. But even when using exuvience, clarins, dermadoctor, and juice beauty - my pitted scars barely faded and I'd still get horrible break outs on my chin. Any storebrand, behind the counter, monthly subscription (neutrogena skinid, proactive, rodan and fields), I swear to you. You name it and I've probably given it a try! This stuff is the bomb. Give it 14 days. 2 weeks and tell me you don't see a huge difference. You NEED a good moisturizer. The negative complaints are from individuals that need to learn how to balance their skin. I have been using clinique smart daytime lotion for the day and SKYN oxygen infusion cream at night. YES those are 2 pricey lotions but dang are they worth it if you've thrown away more money on useless products. They will easily last you 90 days. I use the spot treatment just as that.. a spot treatment. Sometimes Id put on my tzone when my pores were huge and black head filled. Again, make sure you moisturize! Attached are photos that are a month apart. The left photo isnt even when my skin was at it's worse. I thought it looked good at the time I took it. I hate myself without makeup so I can't even believe I'm posting this on a PUBLIC WEBSITE. But the results are real. If you've ever cried over the pain you're in due to cystic acne, BUY THIS RIGHT MEOW.
So, this summer has been SUPER hard on my skin. I really liked this product at first. It did what it promised and I noticed my blemishes were greatly reduced in the first 3 days. But, after continuing with the product (as directed) I began to develop strange bumps that were jut under the surface of my skin. They would never come to a head and they just stayed. I decided to return the product because of the bumps. Also, I got super dry. To the point where my chin had a red dry patch that has taken about 2 weeks to clear up. Just didn't work for me.

I saw a significant decrease in my acne after I started using this face wash. It has a cooling feel after washing your face and your skin just feels so soft.

I have very sensitive skin and I also have a lot of acne caused by my hormones due to medication. This stuff has worked wonders for my face! It makes my skin feel so fresh and clean. I have really oily skin and this has made a BIG difference! So glad a team member introduced this to me!

I purchased this for my 12 year old. It worked really well for her. I use the spot treatment every once in a while. I would purchase this again for her.

I love this product so much I've been using it for 14 days now and I noticed how clear my skin is now. I started getting hormonal acne at age 25 and it's just been a downhill spiral from there. I've tried so many products in the past five years I was getting tired I came across this and I thought I'd give it a chance because I've done my research and what is supposed to help with acne this past year before heading to a dermatologist. And I am so shocked of how fast the results have appeared on my face even my husband has said wow your face looks so clean and clear it's been years and we all know men don't notice much so I'm so happy to say that I will continue to use this product and I'm so happy to finally have found something to help with my acne, acne scarring, redness, blemishes and just keeping my face clean. I am truly invested now and will continue to look into more of their product line for oily skin thank you so much!

I am in my early 30s and struggling with worsening hormonal acne over the last few years. I was contemplating seeing a dermatologist, but decided to try a random OTC treatment product which just happened to be this. Within a few days my skin looked so healthy. I have to admit that my acne got worse during the first two weeks of use, but I had never seen my skin looking this good overall so I continued. After about 3 weeks I stopped having new breakouts. After 4-5 weeks, my residual breakouts were healed and gone. I rarely ever wear foundation anymore and it's so freeing!

This is the first face soap that helped my redness in addition to helping acne. Definitely recommend!

I have used this kit almost 30 days now. My face is much clearer. It does work but I still have some spots along my jawline. Its one of the best kits I have used in my 20 years of fighting acne. The clarifying treatment bottle needs work. Half of my leaked out when I traveled with it even with the lid on tight. I had to put it in a different bottle. Now I have cleaner and the do treatment and no clarifying toner. Ulta does not sell it separately so it's very disappointing. Other than that I'm pretty happy with the results.

This product is amazing 👏. I was having acne problems and break out under my jaw line, within three days of using this product, I started noticing improvement. Now, a week later, no acne or break out. Skin is clear and my oily problem is under control. I was so unhappy 😡 with the way my skin was looking. I am glad I came across this product.

Good, but you need a moisturizer after your treatment, because dry your skin. If you have a dry skin :)

I didn't have a ton of acne but wanted to get rid of the few blemishes that were popping up consistently. I didn't see a big difference right away but I continued using the products and I noticed that my skin is more clear and less oily! Amazing!

I have dealt with acne for over 10 years now and this SAVED ME. This cleanser is amazing and the clarifying solution is a god send. Definitely go in slow with the clarifying solution if you are not used to using heavier esfoliante such as glycolic acid! and the benzoyl peroxide, be careful and go slow with it too if you are not used to it. The benzoyl peroxide spot treatment is intense and might make your skin drier at first because it takes getting used to but overall AMAZING products! I always recommend this everyone because it saved my skin.

Products were way to strong. I had chemical burns on my face and neck. Face was soo itchy from it

I have adult acne and this has not helped at all, I've been using it for about two months now. I wouldn't recommend it at all, it's just as if I were using any drug store product.
Lucyloo from Lansing Michigan
I have had horrible acne for the past 5-6 years. I've tried nearly every combination of products under the sun without much luck, even with stuff prescribed from my dermatologist. Before I sold my soul to the skincare gods (used proactive), I decided to give this a try. I used it the first night I got it and saw immediate results over night. The spot treatment worked so well and the toner and wash don't burn or irritate the skin. I would recommend however going a little lighter on the spot treatment the first few times you use these products to avoid dryness and would definitely have a good moisturizer on hand. Overall though, I highly recommend these products to anyone who has trouble with stubborn acne and oily skin!!

So I bought this product after trying nearly everything- Cerave, cetaphil, dove soap, even summers eve on my face, had tried the African black soap, the Aztec clay mask.. the list goes on. I use this system with vanicream... My acne completely cleared up within 7 days. My face is super dry now, so somehow I'm going to try to figure out how to reverse that.. But! It did what it was suppose to almost immediately. A couple of days in, I had an allergic reaction to it.. which was solely just my body. I found that putting moisturizer on my eyes before applying anything else helped. I would compare this to the Rodan and Fields line spotless. Giving a 4/5 only because it is so drying that my skin is sort of flaking a little bit!

This is one of my "holy grail" skin care products. I have been using it for a few years now and my skin has never been the same! Best acne kit on the market, especially the effaclar duo cream!! Highly recommend for ppl struggling with acne.
Margaret Carbono from Doral, Florida
It's not the first time that I use this product, but this time is better, you can notice the results faster.
Kristen from Boston, MA
Love this kit. Works very well and very fast. Every time I stray away from Laroche Posay my skin shows it! I will say for me personally the 3rd step I use sparingly because it dries my skin out a great deal.
Kimberly from NY
I had really high hopes for this product because I suffer from breakouts/acne and just wanted to find products to clear my skin completely. The first day I loved it and was excited to keep using it. The second day I woke up and my eyes were swollen and my skin felt like leather- it chemically burned my sensitive skin. *I'm not bashing this product because I do think it works for some people but for me, it was a complete fail and now I'm trying to restore my skin back to being heathy*

This product works WONDERS!! I had a really bad breakout because of stress from work and this treatment cleared up my skin really fast. You will see results within 2-3 days. But if you have dry/combo dry skin (which is my skin type), this whole treatment might not be the best thing for you. And the treatment dries up my skin and makes my face have dry red patches after using it every day. I know this is normal and it is suggested on the packaging. But i didn't expect my skin to turn out like that. I dont have sensitive skin as well so I don't think it's bc my skin developed an allergic reaction. The product just dried up my skin too much. If you have dry skin, maybe it's best to get only one of the acne product like the effaclar duo and only use it whenever you need to. I think this product will work very well for oily skin though. All in all, if you are looking for a product that gives you result very soon, this would be one of the products that delivers. But just need to be careful when using them.

The acne spot treatment is pretty neat, but I suggest using a Q-tip to apply it only on the affected area. The toner also seems okay. Not the best. Lastly, the cleanser was awful. As soon as I used it, I felt a burning sensation. I thought it was part of the deep cleansing aspect of it. However, the next day, I woke up with red burned and irritated skin. I highly think it's because of the ingredients, such as sodium laureth sulfate and menthol. These are very problematic and harsh chemicals and can easily cause irritation on the skin. Even for my hair, I try to avoid the sulfates. I can't believe I put it on my face. I should've looked at the ingredients before buying. 🤦🏻♀️
