Pros:Very light and refreshing
Cons:None
Bottom Line:I'll be using this product from now on...Ever since I've started using the regimen I haven't had any acne at all it's amazing. I've tried so many other products including proactive which used to work but stopped working and dried out my skin.

Cleanser, BP, Mousturizer and AHA at night = perfect skin if you stick to it.

Pros:Cheaper than any OTC "treatment type" cleanser for the size of the bottle. I was paying $7 for 5oz of Olay. No perfumes or dyes. Lathers well.
Cons:I can't find a single thing wrong with it...and I'm pretty picky.
Bottom Line:Best bang for the buck. It seems like an expensive program just because of the start up cost and shipping but if you campare the price per ounce including the shipping...you can't find a cheaper product on the store shelves. The bonus is that the stuff works great. It is super gentle and effectively takes off make-up.
Three important tips though...follow the directions to the letter.
10 second wash, no wash cloth and wait the 5-15 minutes between steps. And don't forget the moisturizer!

Pros:Lathers well. Is very gentle and fragrance free. PH balancing. Cleans well without stripping your skin.
Cons:None.
Bottom Line:This is by far the best facial cleanser I have ever used. I find my skin has been significantly less oily since I've started using it. It's gentle, and does not burn your skin when you wash with it, even if your skin is dry or irritated from benzoyl peroxide.
Recommended:Yes

Pros:Very gentle. Doesn't cause breakouts. Lathers well. Removes excess oil.
Cons:None.
Bottom Line:Dan's Kit and regimen has saved me. Follow the directions faithfully and your acne will soon disappear. Slowly ramp up the benzoyl peroxide and make sure to moisturize. If you still suffer from flakiness add jojoba as Dan recommends. Be gentle and patient! The products will speak for themselves.

Pros:No fragrance, no added dyes. Leaves skin feeling clean.
Cons:Broke me out terribly in little whiteheads all over my face.
Bottom Line:I already have cystic acne and large pores and was looking for a cleanser that would not add to that acne. This cleanser felt nice on and cleansed well, but the next forming I had horribly congested skin and I still do. I'm so surprised that a website product that should KNOW about cleansers created one that works just like one in a drugstore. Very disappointed.

Pros:Mild fragrance, nice consistency, cleanses my face well, doesn't over-dry.
Bottom Line:I love this face wash. You can't find many cleansers like this in stores... dye-free, no medicine added. I am almost through my 8 oz bottle. I didn't order a new one because I picked up some Cetaphil at the store and am going to try that for a while to see if it works as well as this. If it doesn't, I am certainly going back to this. Fantastic product.

Pros:Cleanses without drying.
Doesn't Cause Acne.
Cons:No Fragrance, making it smell bland, which maybe a good thing.
Bottom Line:Prior to this cleanser I was juggling a ton of cleansers for the different times of the day. I used Ellen Lange, which is a very gentle mineral cleanser, for the morning wash and Laventine Olive Oil Cleanser, PCA #13, & Jan Marini Bioglycolic in the evening. This cleanser is so gentle that I have been able to replace my very gentle morning cleanser w/ this, and not suffer any dryness during the day. I have also had great success w/ removing acne tx and masks w/o having to revert to an oil cleanser first. So far no irritation, no breakout and it completely cleanses. BTY, this lathers just fine for me, when I wet my face first. However I am still keeping Laventine's Olive Oil cleanser for MU removal, but everything else I have been able to eliminate. I am glad I took the chance w/ this one.
Update: I just order 2 more 16oz bottles. I use this cleanser a lot now, and it has saved me money with doubling as good brush cleaner.
