Actual Customer Feedback

I’ve seen both positive and negative reviews for this product. Since twelve years old, I have had issues with acne, particularly blackheads. I tried Proactiv for six months and I didn’t really notice any change in my acne. After several years, I decided a month ago to try AcneFree Severe, simply because it’s supposed to work well against stubborn cases. So far I’m pretty impressed; I started off with worse acne, but things have settled down. I’m not completely clear, but much better than I was with Proactiv. It can dry out skin, so I make sure to use a moisturizer, and that eliminates it.

For the first two weeks of diligent use, my acne became worse. However, I continued using it because what a lot of acne medications do first is bring all impurities to the surface as part of ridding your acne. My skin did improve, but by the time the bottles were nearly empty and six weeks had gone by, my skin was exactly the same as when I started the system. This product didn’t do anything for me except waste my time.

I used the original AcneFree and felt I needed something a little stronger. As soon as I started using AcneFree severe I started seeing results, however after about a week of using it my skin began burning and having dry spots. My skin usually tolerates acne treatments pretty well, but step 3 the day time lotion was just too harsh.

Conclusion
Whilst this product does contain Benzoyl Peroxide and Retinol, two acne treating ingredients, the severity of the treatment and excessive steps needed to complete the treatment, make this product not one of the easiest or best on the market. Conflicting consumer reviews also support this. Best recommended for those with severe acne.
