It took nearly 8 months for me to start loving this product, but once it kicked in I was addicted! One pump of this with another pump of Magic White Ice and I'm set for the day. I went from having chronic acne to ditching all my prescriptions and relying solely on Arcona. It took a full year to completely clear up my skin and I have been pimple free for a couple years now. My acne scars are also almost completely gone. The key to Arcona is patience!

This product did not work for me. I found that is just make my skin feel greasy and look more inflamed; but no positive effect on reducing my blemishes.
I like the night acne treatment(Night Breeze) better, though I will not be repurchasing because it has not made a great enough difference in my skin to warrant the $52US price tag.

This is my home run morning pimple treatment. When I use this on a regular basis, my skin rarely has breakouts. When I stop (which I recently did!) those nasty littler suckers crop right back up! My breakouts are those fabulous adult acne annoying variety and this really tames them! This is the first thing I put on out of the shower on my face and cannot live without it!

I am still unsure weather I like this product or not. It works great at keeping breakouts at bay, although it has not done anything for my blackheads. It is very sticky, and makes my face super shiny, I have to use it at night due to the shine factor. Also, the pump is super messy to use, it squirts everywhere and you can't control the amount of product that comes out.

The most effective acne preventive product that I've ever used. It works both on the dry and oily areas of my face. Can be used alone, but I also combine it with another serum/moisturizer because it can be drying.

I received this as a sample a few days ago. It's a bit early for me to say if it really keeps my pimples at bay but the texture is great, it doesn't irritate my skin, and it moisturizes lightly without being greasy. In winter, I need to add extra moisture because this alone not enough, but in warmer months it would be perfect. I use the Desert Mist and then Clarins UV Plus SPF 40 on top of it and so far, I've had no breakout. I'll update in a week or so.
ps: I've also started using the Tea Tree Mask once a week and it's amazing! After the first use my skin was already clearer and glowing. Highly recommanded.
Update: It's been a week+ now and I still haven't broken out from the AM Acne Lotion. In fact, it seems to control any breakout pretty well, wich is rare for me. I would usually use a bezoyl peroxide product to keep acne at bay but it would dry out my skin and make it itcy, and it wouldn't even keep my pimples away for that long! That said, an Arcona rep suggested I blend it with Magic White Ice or the Hydrating Serum for more moisture. I followed her advice as I already owned both products, and my skin is doing great. I love it so far and when I finish my sample of the acne lotion, I'll order the full size bottle.
Second EDIT: I have just received my full bottle order and I'm loving it. It's a bit sticky, but it dries pretty quickly so that's not important anymore. Highly recommanded.
EDIT: I find that I don't quite use this because it's quite sticky and this is becoming annoying.

This product is decent but not fantastic. If I had to give it a grade, I'd give it a B. But I'd re-purchase it because of its natural ingredients. I really like Arcona's philosophy. The moisturizer is a bit tacky after application, and it has to be smoothed on very quickly before it dries, which means that tinted moisturizer or foundation does not apply well on top of it. All day I felt as though I had a slight film on my face, but the lotion did do a good job of keeping breakouts at bay. I think it's good to have as back-up on days when your skin is acting out. However, since it is a "natural" product, it expires more quickly than most products, so it's not as though you can keep it around for too long. It's a so-so product, but one I will repurchase until I find another natural, acne-fighting moisturizer that is better.
