Acne happens when follicles, or pores, get blocked. “Sebum (oil) which normally drains to the surface gets blocked and bacteria begins to grow.” – acne.org
I’ve always had a problem with acne. Most of the products I’ve tried either don’t last, are too expensive, or just didn’t seem to work much. I’ve been using the ClearSkin Professional Acne Treatment System for about 2 weeks now and have seen some pretty good results so far.
The ClearSkin Professional Acne Treatment System comes with three products that prove to be a powerful 3-step regimen. Below is the review for each product individually. After that is the review for the entire system as a whole.
Step 1: Cleanse
The Deep Pore Cleansing Scrub is the first step to the ClearSkin Professional Acne Treatment System. It has small microbeads to exfoliate your skin while it cleans. As it cleans it tingles, which lets you know it’s working. I love the feeling, but I did notice that the first time I used it, it was almost a burning sensation. It seemed my face wasn’t as clean as I thought. If you’re really sensitive, I do suggest making sure you wash your face before first use.
When rinsing the scrub off, you will want to make sure to get it all off. This was slightly difficult for me to do, but it isn’t too hard. Once it’s off, I feel the tingling sensation for a little while longer, which is good news.
This product is advertised to fight all stages of acne with Avon’s exclusive Oil Control System. If found that it does just that. My face remained clean and cool all day. Before using the Treatment System, I didn’t really have a Skin Care Regimen, and my face was always oily, even if it showed signs of being dry. With the Deep Pore Cleansing Scrub, I have noticed a drastic change in the condition of my skin.
The price of this product individually is a little bit higher than average, but not overwhelming. Avon does offer a trial set, and also the full system that I use for a discounted price which I highly recommend.

Step 2: Tone
The second step to the ClearSkin Professional Acne Treatment System is the Clarifying Toner Pads. I have used different types of pads like this before, but none have ever seemed to work very well. Some would even burn. With the ClearSkin Clarifying Toner Pads, I don’t have either of these problems.
There is no burning when using the toner pads. The product is advertised to make your skin look and feel smoother after just one use and also helps retexturize, calm and soothe your skin. My skin did feel a bit smoother after the first use, and I have notices the Clarifying Toner Pads have been able to calm and soothe my skin after the tingling feeling of the scrub.
The price of the Clarifying Toner Pads is a bit more expensive than most on the market. Of course, this item comes in the trial set and the full-sized treatment system at a discounted price.

Step 3: Treat
The last step in the ClearSkin Professional Acne Treatment System is the Daily Correcting Lotion. I’ve never used a lotion for acne before but I am fairly impressed. To get the most out of the lotion, it is recommended to use it 2-3 times a day, and it only takes a couple of pumps. I currently only use it once a day, which seems to be working fine for me after two weeks.
The lotion is applied to to problem areas to assist with controlling surface oil and visibly minimizing pores. My complexion has become a lot better since using the Daily Correcting Lotion with the entire treatment system.
The lotion is very light and goes on very smooth. After application, I can hardly tell it’s there.
The price of the Daily Correcting Lotion is more expensive than most over the counter acne lotions, though there are not too many out on the market like this. Of course, this item comes in the trial set and the full-sized treatment system at a discounted price.

The System
I’ve been using the ClearSkin Professional Acne Treatment System for two weeks with noticeable improvement. I haven’t had a major breakout since I’ve been using the system. I have notice a few new pimples come up, but they go away much faster than normal because of the treatment system.
As far as price goes, the treatment system should be bought as a the set that Avon provides. Avon also puts the treatment system on sale, and is therefor a better deal.
