This really is a major help to my skin. I have only mild-medium acne and have tried everything possible so that I don't have to wear foundation everyday (to cover the sporadic pimples on my face), including ProActiv, Clinique, Murad, Clean & Clear, everything. I went to get a chemical peel at my doctor's office (minor scarring from picking at my face), and she recommended this kit for future breakouts. Now I DON'T wear foundation everyday....woo-hoo! It also conquered the impossible--got rid of all blackheads.
