Hi everyone, I have had extreme acne problems for years (I am 26 and it is as problematic as ever) and have just started on Levaquin, which is helping a lot. However, it is a powerful antibiotic, so I am worried about long-term effects of taking it daily.

I am going to try the clear & smooth, but also I have seen online an herbal supplement called acne gone and was wondering if anyone has tried that. I would like to switch to something natural if it works.

Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks!

The best thing is Money back. Since I am soooo TIRED of wasting money on products that don't work and I feel I wasted a bundle of money. If there's money back then I feel I didn't waste money but just my time!!

Humm ... that's worrying! I've only been using the Neostrata for a couple months - on the recommendation of my derm (I didn't really need an Rx any more but was still getting mild acne breakouts). Hopefully the results will keep up! (fingers crossed). Thanks for the warning!

Just wanted to mention that I get the Neostrata at Shoppers Drug Mart rather than direct from Neostrata on-line. You're right that there's no money back if you order online, but Shoppers does give money back if you have the receipt

hmm ive heard of neutrogena's microdermabrasion kit but my mom says that it makes your skin thinner and more sensitive in the end. this neostrata is it different?

Here's my current Regimen:

Morning:
Wash face with Warm water
Use LUSH Coal Face Bar Soap (This soap absorbs oil and has a bit of exfoliation process to it) Leave on for about 2 mins before I wash off
Use Thayer's Alcohol Free Aloe Vera Toner
Carley's Daytime Lotion

Evening/Night time:
Carley's Soap and leave the lather on for about 30 seconds
Carley's Clear and Smooth Treatment Scrub leave on for 1-2 mins before rinse it off
Carley's Soap again lather leave on for 1-2 minutes
Pat Face dry and wet hands and squirt out dime size Carley's Day time Lotion

1-2 times weekly: LUSH Cosmetic Warrior Bio-Fresh All Natural Mask or LUSH Mask of Magnaminty.

For a deep cleanse I do the masks. I know this is a lot to do and I will be cutting off some products as soon as I finish them. The Thayer's Toner and masks will be cut off from regimen as soon as I finish them. So my Refimen is less. Less is BEST!!
