i'va had a a problem with acne for ages,and nothing ever seems to work. i've recently started using cetaphil, and it does seem to improve the quality of my skin, the red, puffy-ness has gone down, but i still have a fair bit of acne on my face, however, this is the nicest product that i have used on my skin, and it makes it look and feel really clean. i'm hoping with continued use the acne should decrease as well.

i use a generic version but anyway...i have kinda oily skin so using a cleanser that doesnt really seem to get any oil off sounds like a strange way to control acne but it does. also, my face became less oily--like it didnt have to over-compentsate. strange but true fabulousness

I bought this product because it says it's non-comodegenic and for sensitive skin. I guess it didn't clog my pores or irritate my skin. That's about all it had going for it. It does not remove makeup very well (it doesn't claim to), and it does feel like a layer is left over after rinsing. Also, a pump dispenser would make this product easier to use. Too much product dumps out from the spout. I think people with very dry skin would benefit from this product.

nice and gentle on my skin. after so many years of trying harsh "teenager" cleansers, i go through bottle after bottle of this. works perfect if combined with the regimen bp gel. used to have acne, now my skin is glowing...

Doesn't work for me. Does not remove makeup and leaves skin feeling like it is not clean.

People have raved about this cleanser for years, but for me, it did little. It did not make my face worse, but it certainly did not make it better. People with more sensitive or dry skin will like it better.

This product did not work for me. I found that it actually broke me out more and dried my skin to the point of it cracking. It didn't clean the makeup from my face either which i found out when i would wipe off with a toner. ugghh I gave this product a number of months to work but i had to switch. It just didn't work for me.

This product did not work for me. It seemed not to clean my face at all. My face felt just like I put lotion on instead of cleaning my face. It's a little pricey so the generic is a better idea.

This product is awesome at first you need to get used to it because you feel like you're juste washing your face with...slimy water...but it really does the a good job and combined with the regiment has done wonders for my problem skin.

if you are using differin and are very dry, use this product. I am never dry or overly oily with this because both products even each other out.
