I see comments saying it’s causing breakouts. When you first use it, it’s going to pull that junk out of your skin. It is normal that your skin might look worst at first. Once that stage is over, your skin clears up and it’s quite amazing. I’ve used it myself as well as my teenage boys. I suggest you give it a fair shake and try it daily for a month straight. I’m not saying this works for everyone because let’s face it, we’re not the same. But I would bet that it does work for the majority of us.

okay so i've been offically using this 3 step acne line for almost a month now. The toner really burns me i don't know how else to incorporate it into my skin care routine. i usually wash my face in the shower with the foaming cleanser from this line, then i take a cotton ball and very lightly swipe scross my face with the exfoliater. It finally got so bad my forhead turned red and swollen and was VERY tight i started to cry a lot. yes i did start off with the toner every other day/week because it was 2 strong for me personally but i haven't been using it on my forhead at all anymore i am traumatized. I think it "works" but harshly very harsh. My acne is getting better but its like in exchange for no more acne i am getting so much texture all over my face that i did not have before. Various little white bumps are spreading all over my chin/mouth area i am honestly so defeated. I am gonna try to use the rest of these products because they were expensive to buy all together at full size. I recommend these ONLY if you are okay with purging a lot before it gets better :(
Yes yes yes!!

I absolutely love this product. I've been using it for over two years now and since I have started it have had almost NO acne. I ran out of it a few months ago and didn't use it for about two weeks, and my acne got so bad. I picked it up again at Ulta and oh my gosh it cleared so fast. Pros: clears acne super quickly, removes makeup pretty well, prevents acne and clears pores and blackheads Cons: it does dry out my skin but I don't find it to be a huge problem for me personally because I just apply moisturizer after using. It's also kind of expensive but it's Clinique and imo it's so worth it I DEFINITELY recommend this!!
I like it.

This lotion controls oil, reduces shine, and unclogs my pores. It's gentle yet effective, leaving my skin matte and clear without irritation.
Wish it came in bigger size!!!

Since I've turned 40, I've been dealing with hormonal acne. The acne 3 step system was a lifesaver at keeping it under control!! I use this at least every other morning, followed by a light moisturizer. The amount of dirt/dead skin this thing removes is amazing especially during summer. My skin always looks so bright and smooth after. During my time of the month is when I have to use all three products(acne foam cleanser, acne lotion and all over clearing treatment). It can be a little drying sometimes and suggest scaling back on the usage when this happens. My only gripe is PLEASE MAKE A BIGGER SIZE!!
Nothing else was helping my hormonal acne!

I tried everything for my hormonal acne, including prescription creams. Within days after using this twice daily, i started to see a change in my skin. For roughly a year or so prior, I was dealing with consistent breakouts. I hardly write reviews but highly texommend for those struggling with hormonal acne.

So i ordered this product online without reading the description. I was expecting an actual LOTION not liquid. However, since it was pricey and im desperate to relieve my acne, i decided to try it. Id definitely call this more of a "toner" bc you apply with a cotton ball and its a bottle of liquid. I will say that it makes my skin feel soooo soft and is not overdrying. I was looking for an acne treatment moisturizing lotion, but i am surprised and delighted with the benefits. I have used it twice already on my skin and neck and my skin feels soooo soft and smooth and its definitely shrinking the blemishes i have. Although i was initially disaapointed its not a "lotion" i am pleased with the effectiveness and will more than likely purchase again. Once it dries on your skin, id recommend throwing a moisturizer on top to prevent excess drying out.

Did quite literally the opposite of what it should have been doing. My skin is so broken out it aches. It feels nice as it’s going on but it’s not very good at controlling acne

Really controls acne breakout, I wear makeup 5 days out the week which in sure clog pores. I haven't had any breakouts since buying this product, I'm highly pleased. I use it once a week on my 12yr old because it is strong, but she have regular ance for someone facing puberty. I use this product 3x a week myself.

I have been using this clarifying lotion twice a day along with the Acne Clearing Gel for spot treatments and it has worked miracles for my adult acne prone skin. Better than Paula's Choice toner!
I use this ALL the time and won't use anything else.
