Pros:Lathers great, very economical size.
Cons:Hard to rinse off all of the soap from the sink.
Bottom Line:This is a great cleanser for the shower. It gets rid of all the makeup and dirt on my face. I feel like my face gets really clean and I'm able to rinse off all of the residue in the shower. Plus, the soap seems to last for months!

However, I would not recommend this soap for washing your face in the sink though. Very difficult to get rid of the residue with only light water pressure.
Recommended:Yes

Pros:Works great, huge size, easy to dispense, cheap (for the size).
Cons:Takes a lot of rinsing to get it all off. Expensive to ship by itself (cheaper if you pick up a couple of Dan's BP Gel tubes at the same time).
Bottom Line:Has worked wonderfully for me once I figured out how to rinse it off without irritating my skin. I use 1 1/2 pumps, lather it up on both hands, and then splash a bit of water on one hand to thin the stuff out, lather more, and apply.

The best way to rinse I've found is indirectly. Just let the water run down your head and (extremely gently!) rub a your face with just the slightest touch of your fingers and palm. After a few seconds you'll feel your face go from slick to definitivly squeaky clean. Repeat for any places your gentle touch doesn't get the first time (around nose, under jaw, edges of face, etc.), remembering to just *barely* touch.

I use Dan's Gel and Oil Of Olay Sensitive Moisture Therapy. After a few months of ramping up the BP, my acne is practically completely gone.

Pros:Great Cleanser! Doesn't overdry, no fragrance, quick and easy.
Cons:None.
Bottom Line:I've had mild acne for years. I tried everything out there and nothing seemed to work. I'm two months into the regimen and it has alleviated my acne almost to the point of completely clear skin. Stick to the Regimen's instructions exactly the way they are stated and it will work.

Pros:This is an excellent wash. It is gentle and lasts a long time. Nice scent that may take some getting used to at first.
Cons:I don't like it for shaving, but then again I don't like any wash for shaving. I prefer a good gel like edge.
Bottom Line:At first, I thought this was a tad overdrying, but what cleanser isn't? Then I figured out that I wasn't getting nearly adequate moisturization. After getting used to it, I found this product to be the least overdrying of everything. Shipping was a little expensive, but the big bottle lasts forever, so it is much cheaper in the long run. This is good enough for me to reorder.

Pros:- Big Bottle
- Good lather
- Dispenses easily
Cons:- Residue is hard to rinse off, especially with soft water
Bottom Line:It's affordable and works okay, but as soon as this huge bottle runs out (which will probably take years), I'm switching back to Neutrogena Extra Gentle.

Pros:- Silky Smooth Application
- Positive Solution for Shaving
- Large Bottle
Cons:- Too Overdrying for Combination Skin Areas
- Shipping and Packing Costs Too High
- Fails to Penetrate Cleansing Deep Enough
Bottom Line:A generally quite good product depending on your skin type, but it appears that flaws are present. Parts of my skin find a good tolerance with the product and therefore it proves effective in the job it is aimed for, however for combination skin like mine certain areas around my Nasal regions have massively over dried leading to flaking that very few moisturisers can touch.

Overall though for the application and the anti-irritation factor for shavers, this is a good product.

I think another guy may of touched up on this, but it would be a great idea if 'Dan' could introduce a FREE sample or charge a small fee for a much smaller sampler. The cost implications involved for a poroduct that potentially may not work is quite frankly off the scale.

I'm in two minds on whether or not i shall stay on this and fight it out, on the other hand i'll probably move away from it.

Read before you buy, it's not for everyone.
