i love it. it has a great lather that feels so soft on my skin. instead of redness all over i just see freckles and skin.

Pros

  • makes my skin feel clean but not to dry. decreases the redness in my Irish skin. i can use it morning and night and my skin has just the right amount of oil on it.

Cons

  • none. i don't have the sense of smell so to me it smells like air.
  • moderate
  • for a day or two
  • $ 4
  • I recommend using this treatment.

Perfect for cleansing your face. Use it morning and night. My dermatologist also says it's probably the best facial cleanser to use.

Pros

  • Does an excellent job cleansing the skin
  • Feels great on the skin while cleansing
  • Non-comedogenic (won't clog pores)

Cons

  • Mild dryness after using it
  • moderately severe
  • for about a year
  • $ 5
  • I recommend using this treatment.

DO NOT use this for your FACE. It will give you chronic dry, peeling skin. My face looks horrible after using this. I don't think this is meant for your face, mainly for your body. It's just too harsh and drying. Use, the Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser instead. It's very gentle.

Pros

  • Cleans face of dirt and makeup.

Cons

  • KIlled my skin!!! DO NOT USE unless you want to end up with dry, peeling, leather-like skin. I used to have pretty normal looking skin ( texture) until I started using this. My skin is horrible now thanks to this. It resembles snake skin.
  • moderate
  • for about a month
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

This is the best cleanser I've found yet. I recently had a very bad reaction to my regular regimin (don't know the trigger) but this has soothed my skin and kept it very clean and fresh-feeling. I bought it because my skin got very sensitive and dry, and the dryness is actually improving and my skin rarely flares up like it did before.

Pros

  • Lathers well, smells nice (like any good soap), doesn't dry skin, rinses clean, soothes

Cons

  • None
  • moderately severe
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 3
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I have used this face soap for years and love it.. I just recently figured out how well it lathers. rub the bar in your hand for a while and then really rub your hands together and feel the lather.. the lather is so soft and seems to clean my skin a bit better. it cleans my makeup off well, doesn't make my skin feel dry like most other things i've tried, makes my skin pretty soft... overall, great soap.

Pros

  • great overall face soap, good for sensitive skin, lathers really well

Cons

  • its a bar?
  • moderate
  • $ 4
  • I recommend using this treatment.

Everyone's skin is different but it worked very well on my oily/dry combination skin. It has made all the difference for me, actually.

Pros

  • I love the fragrance, it is cheap and it didn't leave my skin oily or dry and just left it feeling clean. Also it even reduced the redness to my skin from ance.

Cons

  • None.
  • moderate
  • for about a month
  • $ 3
  • I recommend using this treatment.

Not good for oily skin types, if your skin is dry from accutane maybe a good choice but if your dry from benzoyl peroxide or other drying topical products maybe you should think twice about using those harsh topicals.

Pros

  • None

Cons

  • Strong fragrance, also leaves an annoying film on my skin.
  • moderate
  • for about a week
  • $ 6.99
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

I've used it only about half a week and i'm starting to dislike it. I think my skin is not compatitable or the formula or ingredients that are in it made my skin feel tight.

Pros

  • It cleans really well and moisturizes skin

Cons

  • It made my face feel tight and dehydrated, quite uncomfortable.
  • moderate
  • for about a week
  • $ 8
  • I recommend using this treatment.

The product makes you feel fantastic but after using it less than a day before my face now had 2 large bumps on my cheek that were red and extremely prominent.However the cleanser that comes in the lotion form is really good.

Pros

  • It really makes your skin feel FANTASTIC after using it as well as making your skin look clean!

Cons

  • There seems to be an ingredient in it that forms new pimples in less than 24 hours.
  • for about a week
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.
