My sister is 21 and her skin randomly started breaking out with red bumps and cystic acne. She had been using Clinique skincare and it stopped working for whatever reason. She went thru some other brands and out of desperation was trying stuff from walmart, including cetaphil (cringe, that stuff is basically gasoline for your face). I've been trying to get her to clean up her routine for years and since nothing else worked, she finally caved. She was afraid of spending a lot of money for something else not to work so I bought this starter kit for her. It started working in a few days and had her back to normal in a couple weeks. She realized this brand isn't any more expensive than clinique and is now a convert. She especially loves the cleanser and toner.
