Cleanse with it twice daily. Then spot treat with 2.5 % benzyl. At night put twice as much benzyl skin repairs itself through the night. I would also recommend using a facial brush with cetaphil cleanse because it helps brush away dead skin cells

Pros

  • Skin feels very clean after cleansing. Seems gentle.

Cons

  • Your skin may break out for the first week because all the nasty bacteria under the skin is surfacing.
  • moderate
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 3

Really helped me! I coupled this with epiduo and my skin looks much better. This is the best soap I've tried.

Pros

  • Soft, lathers well. Helps reduce white heads by a lot.

Cons

  • If you keep in a travel case, it gets mushy after a while.
  • moderately severe
  • for a few months
  • $ 3.5
  • I recommend using this treatment.

Gets the job done but it would be a lot more helpful if they made it in liquid form just because the bar can be a bit messy. Plus, I personally think the antibacterial component adds to acne prevention.

Pros

  • Washes clean
  • Pleasant smell
  • Lathers well

Cons

  • Drying
  • If kept in soap dish turns into mush
  • light
  • for a few months
  • $ 3
  • I recommend using this treatment.

Used this for a few months, worked well in the beginning I was very happy but of course like everything else it quit working. After awhile it really started to dry my face out to the point that the skin around my eyes was flaking off.. not good! Anyway, if you want to get clear for a little bit go right ahead but it wont work longterm.

Pros

  • makes skin less oily, clears acne for a few months

Cons

  • dries out face, quits working after awhile
  • moderately severe
  • for a few months
  • $ 3
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I bought this product cause I kept getting acne cysts on my chin and one on my cheek and I couldn't seem to get rid of them. I read about cetaphil and they had such great reviews and I saw this soap for like $3 in Walmart so I bought it. Its been like 5 days and I see my chin clearing up.

I wish my face wasn't so dry from it though.

Pros

  • It clears blemishes and acne, doesn't smell at all

Cons

  • My face becomes very dry
  • very light
  • for about a week
  • $ 3
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I had used this product for more than a week but what it did was to make my face more oily. I have an oily skin and this product does not suits me. I wouldn;t recommend this product for those who have oily skin. Very expensive, not worth it.

Pros

  • Moisturizes skin.

Cons

  • I makes my skin feeling/looking more shingy/greasy, clogged pores causes more breakouts. Very expensive.
  • light
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 8
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

good cleansing bar, gone quickly cause i use it all over my body, but good thing i stocked up. doesn't cause breakouts, and did help my skin. a bit drying, so do load up on moisturizer after the BP, which i find that i have to apply sooner because the skin on my face feels like a desert afterwards (effect of BP on my skin, still ramping it up so it's pretty sensitive to how drying the cleanser i use is). the "odor" isn't bad at all, and its a pretty good thing to try out cause it's cheap and cetaphil products are usually very good for people with sensitive skin anyway.

Pros

  • better complexion after a few uses, and great clean feeling after use, without causing breakouts, possibly even minimizing breakouts with triclosan as an active ingredient

Cons

  • much drier than cetaphil's liquid gentle cleanser, but not something i would complain about. doesn't last a long time, and expensive for a cleansing bar
  • moderately severe
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 6
  • I recommend using this treatment.
