AcneFree 3-Step System for Clear Skin is a three-step process that is said to be a major breakthrough in acne treatment. According to the company’s website, the product is always working, 24 hours per day, seven days per week. The company says that the products work so well because of a time-released Benzoyl Peroxide that is effective and non-irritating. While the effects may be in question, there is no question that Benzoyl Peroxide can absolutely irritate your skin.

How the three step process works

* Step One, AcneFree Cleanser: Oil-free formula for adult acne treatment that is said to gently exfoliates dead skin cells and impurities to cleanse away dirt and remove oil that can clog pores. Benzoyl Peroxide cleans deep into the pores to supposedly clear existing acne and help prevent future breakouts.
* Step Two, AcneFree Toner: Removes dead skin cells and excess surface oils to leave skin balanced.  Said to help keep pores clean and fight bacteria to prevent future breakouts. Also claims to restores skin to a normal PH balance.
* Step Three: AcneFree Repair Lotion: Supposedly penetrates the pores to dry up blackheads and blemishes to clear existing acne.  The alleged non-irritating formula is said to be safe for the entire face, avoiding eyes, lips and mouth.

What’s in it?

AcneFree makes no bones about the fact that their products contain Benzoyl Peroxide, but try as you might, you will not find a complete list of ingredients anywhere on the website. This can be troubling for you if you have sensitive skin and are allergic to anything.

Non-irritating Benzoyl Peroxide

Benzoyl Peroxide has seen limited success in the fight against acne, but it certainly is not for everyone. The reason, Benzoyl Peroxide can be extremely irritating to certain types of skin. AcneFree claims that they have a “special” kind of Benzoyl Peroxide that won’t irritate your skin, yet they tell you to keep the products away from the eyes, lips, and mouth areas. Nowhere on their website do they give any explanation as to why the Benzoyl Peroxide that is in their products are non-irritating, they just claim that it is.

Continued use

The company recommends that you continue use of the products even after your acne is gone. What you have here is a product that if it does work, will have its results go away as soon as you stop usage. While AcneFree is not the most expensive acne product by any means, it will add up if you have to buy a new supply of it month in and month out.

Conclusion

AcneFree 3-Step System for Clear Skin says that it has a new form of time-released Benzoyl Peroxide that will not irritate your skin. They follow up this claim with absolutely no proof and that in itself is irritating. It is widely known in the acne product industry that Benzoyl Peroxide can not only irritate your skin, but can also have a bleaching effect if it gets on your clothing. Combine this with the fact that you get absolutely no sense of what the products contain and your decision on whether to buy this product or not should be a simply one; no. If you do believe that there is such a form of Benzoyl Peroxide that will not irritate skin, then go ahead and buy the Golden Gate Bridge from that guy who was trying to sell it to you last week.
