I bought this for my underarms; i've been having trouble with removing the sweat under my arms and i needed something gentle for the irritation there caused by friction and an antiperspirant, and all though it didn't clean my underarms as well as i had hoped, i recently noticed the little bit of back acne i had is gone XD with the hot weather my back was sweating and breaking out but once i began using this soap my bacne went away... i am so surpised! this was an amazing accident! i used to use a glycolic acid body wash once in a while on my back but now i don't need to! and its great cuz that body wash costs a ton! My skin feels really clean with it.. except for my underarms :(
Pros
Gentle
Cleans well
Good for light acne
Seems to keep pores from clogging
Cons
[not submitted]
very light
for a few weeks
$ 5
I recommend using this treatment.

I had moderate acne on my back and this is the only thing I've tried that works absolute wonders. I have NO pimples on my back. Not even one. If I do get any sort of pimple on my back, I just spot treat it with some bp.
Now I'm going to start using it on my face because, frankly, I'm sick of feeling like my face is not completely clean after cleansing. A huge cause for acne is clogged pores so I don't see how lightly cleansing your face with a super gentle cleanser (that does not even remove all of my make up) would get rid of my acne.
Pros
Clears acne
Actually cleans all that gunk out of your pores unlike the "super duper gentle" cleansers we're always told to use.
Great for sensitive skin-- no fragrance/ non-comedogenic
Cons
Can be a tad drying for the face at first but it's perfect for the body
moderate
for about a year
$ 2
I recommend using this treatment.

I'm a 19 year old male and have had bad body acne for about 2-3 years now. I use this on my body and it works great for my body acne. I used to have a lot of acne on my back and chest, and I was always too rough when treating it and would over dry and cause a lot of scarring. Now I use dove sensitive bar and it cleared almost all of my body acne, i only get a few small zits sometimes and rarely i get one large one but for the most part its all gone. My scars are also fading slowly. Use a non-oil moisturizer on your body as well so it doesn't over dry. This combination is working great for me and I'm sure all my scars will disappear soon. If you have body acne i recommend dove highly!
Be patient when using it because all of your acne won't dissapear in a week, it probably took me several weeks to see the acne go away and several months for most of my scars to fade.
Pros
Really soft
Works great for body acne
Cheap
Cons
Bar soap is messy to carry around
doesn't work for face acne
moderately severe
for more than a year
$ 2.5
I recommend using this treatment.

This soap is all you need if you're suffering with acne. I have stopped using cleasners all together and this soap has just been amazing! My skin sucks so much and it is extremely sensitive so the soap can be a little drying, but I have paired this with Aveeno Clear Complexion moisturizer and it does wonders. Definitely worth a try!
Pros
Gentle.
Effective at getting rid of nasty breakouts.
Cleasnses great!
Cons
Can be a little drying, but who cares!
moderately severe
for a few weeks
$ 1
I recommend using this treatment.

I LOVE IT!! I've tried EVERYTHING out there. When I say everything, I mean I've spent a good $5000 on acne medications. Everything made me either dry and irritated or it didn't work at all. This is is the first thing that seems to have produced immediate results. I wash my face with this twice a day. At night I use it along with my Clarisonic Mia. After I just use Sea Breeze and I'm finished.
Pros
Clears breakouts
Rids oil for a little while
Inexpensive
Can use on entire body
It's gentle
Lathers really well
Cons
Doesn't rid oil all day
moderate
for about a week
$ 3
I recommend using this treatment.

I found this bar aggravated the acne on my chest and back. I'm not sure which ingredient in the Dove bar was so irritating, but I had to quit using it. I now use the Cetaphil Antibacterial bar and have great results.
Pros
Smells nice
Inexpensive
Good lather
Cons
Irritating
moderate
for about a month
I do not recommend using this treatment.
