help for acne sufferers: This book is an excellent guide to treating and controlling acne.Most acne sufferers will be helped by this program.For me,I had to substitute salicylic acid because the benzoyl peroxide was too irritating,even the 2.5 percent benzoyl peroxide.Most dermatologists recommend 2.5 percent instead of 10 percent because its equally effective and far less irritating.Best to apply these products at bedtime so they wont be inadvertantly removed.

I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ALL MY ACNE CLIENTS!: This is the best book I've read about acne and treating it! I'm an esthetician and I recommend Dan's book and also his website (www.acne.org) to all my acne and acne-prone clients and just about anyone else that I meet or talk to that deals with acne and breakouts. Everyone should experience clear skin!
Could have got this information for FREE...: off of the author's website www.acne.org. Each and everything in this book is on that website free of charge with a downloadable video (at the time of this review writing). This "method" is similar to ProActiv's except a non-ProActiv brand of cleanser and benzoyl peroxide are used. Considerably more BP is applied with this method as well. Still this method will end up costing much less than ProActiv. Also, judging by the testimonials on here, in the actual book, and on acne.org, this method is rather successful for the long term. Dan Kern's clear skin method treatment will lead to staining of pillowcases and apparel (especially if one has body acne), but some see that as a small price to pay for a clearer or completely clear complexion. Also as a heads up, this method is not intended for the "severe" acne cases. I am most certainly NOT an advocate for the ProActiv system, which was not very effective for my moderate acne by the way. Please understand- I am not trying to rain on the parade, but I am just listing some possibly negative points that were not mentioned in other reviews. I do wish someone had written about them, before I purchased this book.
