Works so fast!
 
Review Date: January 18, 2008
Reviewer: D. Wahn, Texas, USA
I have been using this product for two weeks now, and I am amazed already at the improvement in my skin. I am 25, and only this year have started having terrible breakouts with whiteheads, blackheads, and milia centered mostly on my cheeks right below my cheekbones. The hyperpigmentation (red marks that stay long after a blemish is gone) has been terrible! After just two weeks with this product already I am getting far less red, inflamed breakouts, and the hyperpigmentation from the previous blemishes has faded dramatically! My whole face feels much smooother and is starting to look even-toned again. The smell is kind of funky, and I find the moisturizer to be a bit greasy for my tastes, but as you put it on at night, these are not deal-breakers, you just go to sleep and forget about it, wash it off in the morning. Bottom line is, after all the peels and "intensive" products I've tried, this one works the absolute best, giving me fast, dramatic results.
Amazing

Reviewer: Lilypad200, Long Island, NY
I am in my mid twenties and have had acne for years. Have used a million things in the hopes of clearing up my face, including Proactive and prescription drugs, with little to no results. My Mom bought this for me on a whim. I tried it with absolutely no expectations whatsoever, thinking it was going to be like all the rest, lots of hype and no results. I did the peel at night, the next morning I woke up and I noticed some of the redness was gone, and the acne was significantly minimized. I was completely floored, after putting on the peel three times in one week I saw results I have never even seen with prescriptions.

Reviewer: MAMAMIA, St. Louis, MO
*I have very oily skin, and large pores. It's very hard to find anything that works for my skin type. I bought this on sale because it was being discontinued at a local store. I wouldn't have tried it at regular price because I didn't want to experiment with a cost 20+ dollars because nothing really works for me anyway. I hated it at first because I misread the directions. I was oilier than before so I tucked it away, and figured I'd just give it to someone with normal skin. Recently my skin has gotten out of control with scars, and acne for no apparent reason. I found this behind my other skin care products that were no longer working, and read the directions to use it. I noticed what I'd done wrong the first time. There was a difference in my pores after the first use, but after about six, or seven uses I have significant difference in skin texture, no new acne, and my scars are half faded. I didn't even have to buff my skin to death to get these results. I highly recommend it for problem skin, but not for normal, or sensitive skin. Be sure to carefully read the directions, and follow them exactly. If you misuse this it will not work.
excellent product

Excellent product! It is the best acne kit I have tried, and I tried many believe me. As it is made for adults, so it ia gentle but effective. the smell is not nice, but you suppose to use at night time.
Perfect product

Reviewer: C. Jeltes,
This is an incredible product. Pro-activ, prescription medications--nothing works as well on my adult skin as this product from L'oreal. I don't even visit a dermotologist anymore! Too bad this product is becoming increasingly difficult to find. It is a treasure I can't live without!
SIMPLY AMAZING!!!

Reviewer: Soulflower, Dallas, TX, USA Universal Citizen
The other reviewers are correct...BELIEVE the hype...this product does what it says it will do, and more. I too have oily skin, larger pores, cystic acne/adult acne issues too...but because I use *this product* you would never know it. Proactiv was pretty good but this was perfect. Besides clearing up and preventing acne, it gets rid of the signs of aging too! With oily/acne prone skin you can do little to prevent wrinkles or to help sun damage...those creams and lotions are sure to break you out again...but using this helps wrinkles and sun damage too! Get as much of it as you can, as you cannot find it in stores anymore, it seems.
This is well worth the very small amount it costs to buy and ship.
The Missing Link
 
Review Date: November 5, 2009
Reviewer: K. Leonard, NC
After I finished graduate school, I started having more acne than ever. I started Dan's "The Regimen" with pretty darn good results (gentle cleanser, 2.5% benzoyl peroxide morning and night, then lots of moisturizer). I've done it for five years with only a couple zits a week making an appearance. It was cheaper than visiting a dermatologist all the time. Nearing 30, I was getting a little sick of a couple of zits a week, so I looked for something else. Lucky for me, this is the first thing I tried. I use it every other night instead of benzyol peroxide and have literally been zit free since. That was over 2 months ago. I don't use very much, so my first box has lasted this long and it should last at least another month. I could not be happier. If I go out without any makeup on, it's ok because there aren't any glaringly ugly zits or red spots. I have no idea how the product would work on its own, but it is AWESOME with benzoyl peroxide.
Just ordered my second box!

Reviewer: Diane Skurat,
My first purchase was the week of Thanksgiving. My skin must be used to different treatments as this didn't cause too much of a sting. I even use it every other night. With all of those uses, it still lasted me almost 6 weeks. I saw improvements after the first 2 weeks. I love it and just ordered my second box.

I am very happy with it :-)
Great!

great product! Easy to use, works well, not too harsh on the skin. Since entering my mid/late 30's I developed some adult acne and this product works the best of any I have tried!
good product
 
Review Date: February 3, 2010
Reviewer: A. Ramos, Richfield, MN
I had tried all kinds of product to treat my acne but nothing worked.
so i decided to buy proactiv, i thought that was the only product that could help me to treat my acne.
but after reading people's reviews about this loreal product i decided to buy it...... thinking on how much i would have to spend with proactiv, loreal was the best option for me.
Now I've been using loreal for about a month and i am very happy to see the results that this product has giving. my face was full of very dark scars caused by acne. now all the scars are fading, they are pink color and the pimples are gone. it takes some weeks so start seeing the results but it really works.
Works great!
 
Review Date: February 3, 2010
Reviewer: Sparky, Marquette, MI United States
This is the third different acne prevention system I've tried, the previous two being Klear Action Acne Treatment System and Proactiv, and after two weeks I am ready to say this one is the best and also the cheapest!

I had a lot of bad acne in college along the sides of my face, which also left scarring. It wasn't until after my college years I discovered Klear Action and it did work in preventing the acne, however did nothing to repair the scarring. Ditto Proactiv, which cost twice as much as the Klear Action.

So I came across the L'Oreal system last month and after reading the reviews decided to give it a try. Good call, folks!

The L'Oreal system is an easy three-step process, just like the other aforementioned systems, but you only have to use it 2-3 times per week as opposed to every day with KA and Proactiv. The acne is going/staying away and I can already notice the scarring starting to fade a bit, which is something the other two products failed to do. And for only $10 (KA is $20 and Proactiv is $40), it's a steal! I will definitely remain a user of the L'Oreal system.
Does a nice job!
 
Review Date: April 7, 2010
Reviewer: A. Quallich,
I bought this product because I have been experiencing a resurgence of acne in my life at age 37..lucky me! I had tried all of my normal tricks that seemed to work for me in the past to no avail. I was starting to get extremely frustrated. I was getting breakouts around my hairline, chin, and even a few on my cheeks and nose. I had not experienced anything like that since I was 13 years old! I had been using Proactiv over the years (the past decade) and eventually (like most products) it stopped working for me.

I found this product while doing some searching on Amazon and it got great reviews and I felt I had nothing to lose. I have used it about 4 times now and can definitely tell a difference in the clarity of my skin. The breakouts seem to have subsided. It doesn't take much time or investment and it's easy to use.

Definitely make sure you use a good moisturizer with sunscreen while using this product as it will make your skin particularly sensitive to the sun. I would also be careful using any other kinds of products that contain AHAs or things of that nature as it could be overkill.

Overall, great product! The only bad part is that I had no luck finding it anywhere in stores..so who knows if it's on the way out or not.
Pretty awesome with some amping up

Reviewer: t duggon,
I also didnt see much improvement with this--until i bought Perfect Peels 20% Salicylic Acid and added about 7 drops (initially) to a full bottle, then added 4 more drops for a total of 11 drops. This seemed to work really good and was able to use it every other day. I also switched to Burts Bees willow bark cleanser, added 3 drops of tea tree oil and 14 drops of salicylic and together, my face is beautiful. Its important to really really moisturize with this. I use 1/2 sweet almond oil with 1/2 grapeseed oil right after the Loreal Peel and I dont use the neutralizer--salicylic self neutalizes within 6-10 min regardless and leaving it on a little longer seems to help clear out the pores. Then i put on the oil (sounds crazy, but its noncomedgenic and really moisturizes and soothes). And i've been using the 20% Perfect Peel TCA diluted with bottled water on a 50% to 70% dilution (7 to 7 drops water/tca or 9 water/7 drops tca) applied with a toothpick (VERY SMALL AMOUNT Gently applied, neutralized with baking soda after frosting) in the acne scars to help them no look so deep, It's been working, but when i initially did it, i did it on wed morning, went to work and took off thurs and friday. Didnt pick at the skin, used neosporin and walgreens Eucerin moisture cream in the tub, and followed w/ 3 tblspoons white vinegar to 1/2 gal cool water soaks to soothe and help removed the flaking skin. I really kinda looked like a zombie for 4 days, and i did not pick at all--and 3 times and my skin looks completely better. less wrinkles, fewer scars, smaller pores, clearer skin thats bright and pretty--better than all that money i spent at the drs and spas for medicine, treatments, antibiotics, and peels. If you're ethnic or have darker skin, do test patches where you can conceal if things get too light with the tca peel. Hope this information works. Too many of the salicylic acid stuff is just too weak for really bad acne (i had blackheads, whiteheads, cyctic, and all of it adult onset!). Work with the dilution of the s.a. using bottled water in a dropper to get the right combination for you. I've lived with it for 20 years and finally found the magic combo that is making me as pretty as i used to be. :-)
Didn't work for me.

Reviewer: Matt W., Dallas, TX
This system did not do anything for me. After many weeks of having no success, I tried applying Benzoyl-Peroxide after the 3rd step. Aftwards, I noticed a big improvement in the effectiveness, but I don't know if it was the combination of these two or just the benzoyl acting alone. In any case, I'm sure any sacrylic acid and benzoyl mixture would work just as well. I don't like using benzoyl-peroxide, b/c it bleaches everything, but it looks like I may have to after using this product.
Why all the good reviews?

Reviewer: Robert Green, England
I have been struggling with acne for 4-5 years and have tried a handful of products. I thought I would give this one a try because it had received so many positive reviews, and the price was right so I thought it would be worth a shot.

Nope! After 3 weeks I see absolutely no difference. If anything my skin may even be more irritated. I made sure to follow the directions exactly as on the label but to no effect.

Maybe these work for some, but they certainly didn't for me which is disappointing. I tried it for both facial and back acne to no response. Time to try something else.
Do not send the right product

Reviewer: Edwin Martinez,
I purchased this product and have sent me another with the excuse, telling me the same. So my question is to put this on sale, but they do.
