I started this system a few months ago after reading reviews online. I have persistent acne, particularly along my jawline and I was hoping this would finally be the solution. The cleanser is gentle, but it dried out my skin at first. The system overall helped clear my skin slightly, but I still have acne. It seems to help some people, depending on the severity and cause of their skin problems. If you're prone to dryness, I'd suggest only using the cleanser once a day at first and only use a small amount of the correcting serum.
