So im looking to try a acne system that will really help my skin become flawless. i dont have severely bad acne, its just moderate. i have tried pro active before and i didnt really like it and i want to try something else. so i was wondering which of these two systems would work better, skin id or acne free. any suggestions?

Neither! Change your diet! Seriously, though, acne, just like any other skin condition, is a sign of imbalances within your body. Every single one of those acne products dry out the skin, strip the acid barrier that protects against infection and has toxic chemical additives in it. Sure, they may help at first, but in the long run, do more damage. Eat a diet high in raw fruits and veggies and get some exercise everyday and you 'll see major benefits, especially in your skin.... many people on a raw food diet have glowing, flawless skin!

It depends on what type of acne you have actually.... do you have black/ whiteheads? do you have "red bumps "? if you have comedomal acne (black/ whiteheads) you will need a prescription retinoid or a salicylic acid wash. "red bumps " are inflammation & a benozyl peroxide will work fine for these (use a 2-5% strength.) gentle prescription retinods are Ziana, Atralin.
