| Pros: | Gentle on my VERY sensitive skin, it was recommended by my dermatologist as well as discovered by research to be the best facial cleanser in the book Clear Skin Diet. Over-the-counter and pretty cheap for a big bottle! |
| Cons: | I wish the sensitive skin version came in a pump form. It also doesn't feel like soap (no lather) which takes some getting used to. |
| Bottom Line: | This should probably be your basic facial cleanser, and the bonus is that if you don't want to use a heavy moisturizer you can just pat it off instead of rinsing and it keeps skin soft-- these were, in fact, instructions from my dermatologist, and, although he was a bit of a quack in other ways, THIS was definitely a great idea. I also occasionally exfoliate and use different cleansers to cleanse a little more deeply. |
| Recommended: | Yes |

| Pros: | Gentle, non drying. |
| Cons: | Doesn't lather up like other face washes and also won't remove make up like other foamy type face washes. |
| Bottom Line: | This is a really good, inexpensive cleanser. Before this I used Proactiv, the Clinique Acne Solutions 3-step, and then finally the regular Clinique 3 step. While all cleared up a small portion of the acne, they also irritated and dried up my skin. Whenever I wear make up, I use this with a cotton ball to remove the make up then wash my face with it and follow with clarifying lotion (toner) and then moisturizer. I've noticed a difference in my skin -- it is looking more supple and has a healthier glow (I also take Vitamin E daily). |

| Pros: | This cleanser is great it doesn’t dry out my skin and my breakouts have really clamed down since. |
| Cons: | None |
| Bottom Line: | My skin is really sensitive but I still get terrible breakouts, most cleansers designed to rid pimples are way to drying and only increased my skin’s oil production.
The great thing for me is that I can use the benzoyl peroxide cream my GP prescribed me and not end up waking up all dry and flaky! |

| Pros: | Its extremely gentle on your skin and I dont think that it breaks you out though it will happen eventually. |
| Cons: | I really dont like the packaging, I wish it was in the pump form where you could push down on the knob to dispense it. |
| Bottom Line: | Its a great product and altogether cetaphil is a geat brand of acne treatments. Just dont use the cleansing soap as well cause its the same as this product and if you do use both it will break you out severely. |
| Recommended: | Yes |

| Pros: | Very, very, gentle for my sensitive skin, does not overdry or make my face feel tight. Can be used without water/ for makeup removal. Very cheap! |
| Cons: | Large, unwieldy bottle. Slightly unsatisfying because it doesn't foam like a soap. |
| Bottom Line: | Since I have started using the gentle skin cleanser, I have not had a single breakout. My skin is calm, clear, and soft! I love this stuff and I wish I had used it in high school!
I do occasionally use other cleansers so that my face doesn't get too used to it, the same way I occasionally use a clarifying or deep moisturizing shampoo. Mostly I use St. Ives Apricot Scrub in addition to the Cetaphil- about once a week, I like to exfoliate a little bit. This combo has worked for me! |

| Pros: | Goes on very smooth and washes off well
Removes make up/cover up
Fragrance free |
| Cons: | Hasn't reduced pimples (though it doesn't really claim to) |
| Bottom Line: | This is a really nice cleanser. At first I was bothered by the fact that it didn't "foam", but it's so nice to smooth on and then wash off, and it does remove make up and concealer/foundation very easily. I also have very sensitive skin, and so far it hasn't burned, made me itchy, or caused rashes, so that's nice! |

| Pros: | It makes your skin soft and nice also it gets the dirt and oil of your face really nice. |
| Cons: | They highered the prce 2 much now it costs $9.99 for a 16)Z Bottle and I remember last August of 07 they selled 2 16OZ Bottles and a small bottle of Moustirizer for only $14.99 I don't know why they highered it maybe because of the bad economy. |
| Bottom Line: | If you want a normal Cleanser that will get the job done than buy it I just wished they will still sell it at Sam's Club :( |
| Recommended: | Yes |
