I've tried lots and lots and lots of stuff but this is still number 1. Just to let you folks out there know, atleast in CT, go to Costco get two 20 oz. bottles with pumps for $15! How can you go wrong there? It did take me awhile to get used to it at first but it is truley the best.

about me: greasy-oily skin, cystic acne, acne for ten years...i like this because it's gentle and there's little to no overdrying feeling or leftover reddness. bad thing is it doesn't get rid of the mascara i wear, even when it's not waterproof...so otherwise, it's above average IMO.

If you want to feel like you are washing your face with
Vaseline...then slather this stuff on!
The wwwwwworst face wash I have ever used...someone with oily skin should stay far away from this greasy feeling wash. I am not sure why and how this gets such great reviews from people...if you have acne...it might make it worse.

Use this product in the summer when you burn your face. Acne cleansers irritate you skin and make the acne worse at these times.

I'm 44 and have had acne/skin problems since age 12. I would describe my acne problems as moderate, but continuous and widespread for most of that time. In the last year or so the acne has improved greatly to the point where I only have a few scattered areas of blackheads remaining, otherwise clear. I only get about 1 or 2 small pimples per month now and, if I don't touch, they usually clear overnight without anybody but me even noticing them. I have been using Cetaphil for about 10 years now and it is the best cleanser available. When I started using it I found the lack of sudsing hard to get used to, but you get over that. I wouldn't credit Cetaphil with doing much for my acne, but it's what it doesn't do that makes it so great. It doesn't irritate your skin, dry out your skin, leave your skin red, aggrevate excema/dermatitis conditions, or make acne worse. It leaves your skin clean and soft, with no irritation. Cetaphil is one of the very rare products that does what it is supposed to do, without any nast side effects, and for a very reasonable price. I always stock up when there is a sale on the big pump bottles, but even at regular price it's much cheaper than the other hyped products I tried that didn't work, and in many cases made things worse. I tried just about everything available over the years for my skin, both over the counter and prescription, and this is the one product that I always recommend, and that I will always use. (My teenage daughters use it now too!)
