Coral Actives 2-Step Acne Treatment System, 9 Ounce

I will start by letting you know about my skin, to see if this would work for you.I have red hair, blue eyes and very light, sensitive pale skin. I have been dealing with acne for years, since I hit puberty I guess. And now that I am over 25, I get really upset, why should I still have to deal with annoying acne. I can have really oily skin sometimes, or super dry skin or combinations of that. It is really upsetting.Over the years I have tried it all. All the major drugstore brands, all the department store brands, the things you see on TV, kits you can buy online or at the natural food stores. I have tried every home made remedy, mustard, turmeric, honey, baking soda, tea tree oil, neem oil, yogurt masks, everything. I have up'ed my water intake, I cut out greasy foods, washed with green tea, drank cup after cup of green tea. I have found a few things that work, for a while, or half way while trying all these things. I have found things that I thought would work long term, or for all of my acne. I get blackheads and whiteheads and sometimes the "cystic" acne under the skin that ache. I have even changed all my makeup on more than one occasion to anything new and great with anti acne hopes.I vaguely remember reading something short about the Coral Active and thought, why not. I used this right away. I love the gentle retinol cleanser. It really cleans everything off, makes my skin smooth and doesn't irritate my skin at all. I am used to the cleansers leave my skin either too oily, not clean or super dry and tight. But this did all it needed to while leaving my skin balanced and clean. I fell in love with the cleanser right away.Then I put the Acne Serum on my nose to test it. I am sensitive to Benzoyl Peroxide, so I have to do small areas first. I woke up with a clear nose, no little blackheads, no redness, so irritation, I was so happy. This smells a little weird, but not in a bad way. It gets absorbed into your skin, it doesn't sit on it and it works.I used the serum again for a second night and it worked, no pimples but it did dry my skin out a little and leave a little redness on my forehead so I will use this every few nights or so. I still love it.Give this a try! It can't hurt....it may be just what you were looking for.UPDATE 8/2013I have used up my first bottle and am still just so happy. I use this every day with the items and my skin looks great and I only really notice pimples with hormones fluctuations, but nothing in between; and very few, nothing major if anything noticeable at all. I couldn't be happier with this. I love this and it is still working really well, my only face help I use!!

This stuff made me break out horribly after a few weeks of use, and my skin became much more oily due to the over-drying side effect of this product, even using it only once a day. Will not be buying again.

I just received this in the mail, so have yet to give the product a full trial run. This review is for the seller, because of how the item was shipped. It arrived looking like the last unwanted item from a dollar store clearance rack...banged up and ripped open, grubby inside the packaging. When I attempted to leave this seller feedback, Amazon deleted it saying that it was a product review. Very well, I'll post it here then:Item looked like it was a badly returned item: the box containing the wash was pretty beat up and the top flap was ripped open. The bottle inside looked a little grubby. However, the contents seemed in the bottles seemed fine so I didn't return the items.....but next time I'd appreciate not getting items that looked like they'd been kicked around the warehouse floor before mailing.

I'm 28 years old and have had acne for 15 years. I've tried everything OTC (which I'm sure you all have too), and have tried a few things from the dermatologist. I read good reviews about CoralActives and thought I would try it out. Within the first week, I had a few huge, deep zits on my face that hurt and lasted a while. I continued to use the product, hoping it would have to get worse before it gets better. But since, my acne still has not improved. It has balanced out since the large blemishes, but I see no good results. Even my blackheads seem bigger. It did not work for me, but maybe it has for others.

I am extremely happy with the results I have gotten from this Coral Actives acne treatment. I, like many, have tried every product out there for my acne only to constantly be disappointed by products with a lot of hype. I have even tried ProActive on several different occasions. Once when it very fist became popular several years ago, and then again at the beginning of this year. Both times I used to product for a minimum of 4 months and even got upgraded to the more advanced formulas. But, it, just like all other products, seem to be effective on my skin for about a month, but then completely stop working or even start to have adverse affects. I have been using this Coral Actives product for about 5 months now and could not be happier with the results. Not only has my acne seriously subsided, but I have also seen a significant decrease in old scare and red marks. And when I say "old" I mean marks I have been dealing with for years. Additionally, I have even seen a reduction in the size of my pores, which is amazing. I have an extremely stressful job/lifestyle so I do still get very small breakouts during extremely stressful times, but they are very manageable and short-lived. That being said, my skin has not been able to reach that flawless, soft, glowing state that all of us desire, but I am not entirely sure that type of product actually exists. And, after years of trying tons of different products, this is the best solution I have found, by far.Thanks Coral Actives!
