Pure Zone

[Trinity1]

Has any tried the Pure Zone 3 step acne regimen by Loreal? I was using Differen for about 3-3 1/2 months with no results at all. I decided to try something over the counter because just about every acne medication my Dr gives me has let me down. I thought Pure Zone was just for teenagers but decided to try it anyway. My acne started clearing up immediately. Here it is 3 days later from starting the products and my acne is almost gone. I'm amazed. I hope it works long term though because I have had things work in the past and then stop working completely. I guess I'll wait and see but for now I'm sticking with Pure Zone.

I saw an ad for this in the paper, and I think I'm going to try this, too. It sounds like a very good product for under 30 skin.

I recently started using the Pure Zone foaming cleanser at night and I really like it. I don't use the other Pure Zone products though and I use Nivea Oil Control Gel in the morning...great combo!

Thanks for the input!

Tee Tee, which products did you buy? I saw them at Target, but they only had 3 step ones (I didn't know which one to get so I did eeny meeny miney mo), and 1 step three. They didn't even have the step two. So, I just got a step one and the step three.

Oh my!!! you guys I have to retract what I said about this product. Yes it does clear up acne right away but I was horrified to see how my skin had dried up with no natural oil in it. I looked weird to say the least. Not worth it in my opinion. Right now I'm not using anything for my acne because nothing has worked for me except retin-A,but even that stopped working after 6 months of using it. I'm thinking of trying out that birth control pill that is also suppose to be great for keeping skin clear. Also those oral antibiotics are good as long as your on them but then the acne comes right back after you stop. Ugh!!! I am so tired of trying to fight this. Its mild acne not severe but its still so bothersome. Any advice on some new products would be appreciated. So far I've used,Clindamycin,Clindagel,Retin-A,Differen,T-Stat,Pure Zone,Witch Hazel,Proactiv.

Thanks,

Darn! I just found the second step and started using the products lastnight. Did you use every step? Did you use the toner (second step) all over your face or just in specific areas? Hmm... I hope this doesn't dry out my skin. The steps that I am using are:

1) Pore Unclogging Scrub Cleanser
2) Pore Tightening Astringent
3) Skin Relief Oil-Free Moisturizer

Sorry for the late reply. Yes,I used all three steps and my skin became so dry that it looked like I washed my face with terpentine (sp?). It may work well with your skin since everyone is different. Good luck and let us know the results.

I'm stil using it since each step cost $6.99! Anyway, I use the first step on my T zone, the oily part just because it dries so much. Then I just put the toner on bumps. Then I usually don't use the last step, the moisturizer because it doesn't moisturize my face at all! I think these Pure Zone people need to go back to the drawing board!
