Now first of all, it can cause dryness. Second of all, you can use it on your whole body. Like really. To avoid drying and irritation, you need to use it only once a day. Example: I shower at night and use this in the shower. I use it for my face, chest, and back. Then I go and put my acne medication on. Now, what I would say if you like to shower in the morning: use this at night to wash your face and use the acne medication or whatever you put on your acne for bed. Then in the a.m. when you shower, do whatever kind of face-wash you normally do for your face in the shower, but use this on your body in the places you have acne (if you have any on your body obviously).

Pros

  • Works

Cons

  • Can feel drying, but just listen to what I have to say
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 5
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I really loved this product the first few days I used it. However, it started to dry my skin out terribly and now I'm left with red, irritated skin mostly around my chin. I've tried all sorts of moisturizer to help fix this issue and have had no luck so far. If you already have drier skin, do not use this product!

Pros

  • Cleared acne for the first few days

Cons

  • Dried out skin
  • Caused redness and inflammation
  • Stopped working
  • light
  • for about a week
  • $ 6
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

I use this acne cleanser 1-2 times a day. It almost fully cleared my toughest acne spots. I also used the spot treatment from Neurtrogena along with this acne wash. I also noticed if you use this acne wash right after a shower, the results may be better.

Pros

  • Takes care of heavily affected areas
  • Does not leave a shiny or oily appearance

Cons

  • Can dry out, not often for me
  • If not used consistently, acne will usually re-appear
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 5
  • I recommend using this treatment.

Cons

  • Dries out skin really bad
  • Burns your face
  • Redness
  • Inflammation
  • Makes breakouts worse
  • moderately severe
  • for about a month

This was my go to cleanser when I was a teenager. It helped keep my light acne at bay. Now that I'm older(27) and have drier skin with more hormonal acne, this cleanser doesn't do anything for me. I used it for at least 5 years straight along with Nature's Cure topical cream and had only occasional breakouts. I would recommend this cleanser to those with oily skin and light acne.

Pros

  • controls oil
  • helps control light acne

Cons

  • stopped working
  • light
  • for more than a year
  • $ 6
  • I recommend using this treatment.

This product is seriously amazing for anyone! Buy it because it is so CHEAP! Got mine at Walmart. For me i use this product then after i use Aveeno daily moisturizing lotion, even though i don't have dry skin and this face wash doesn't dry my skin at all, who doesn't what even more moisturized skin. This Aveeno lotion you can buy at Costco for like 15 bucks for a package of 2 (bottles are 20 Fl. oz it's huge and lasts a long time). Other thing i remembered to many people after using the Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne wash and the Aveeno lotion mentioned above is the POND'S clarant B3 which helps with dark spots and makes your skin glow. You can get it at target in the section were they sell lots of travel size stuff its pink and it only a $1.50 (1.75 oz or 50ml). It helps with skin completion. The only thing about ponds is your skin needs to be completely dry so after you was your face with Neutrogena Oil-Free acne wash wait 30 minutes so you face is towel dry and air dry. Go out and Buy the Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash and the other products because. (Sorry about the extra products recommend, I just thought all of those who read this should know what really helps with your acne, skin completion, dark spots and dry skin). over all if you buy all 3 products you spent $21.50 pulse tax that if you buy them from the stores i got them. you can also get them online cheaper so ya. GET CLEAR SKIN! WHOOOOOHOO!!!!

Pros

  • THE BEST PRODUCT EVER! This face wash is so good and active on your face. For those who complain on the smell it doesn't matter! You need a wash that will clears off all the sweat and dirt while at the same time minimizing the size of your acne. I wash my face every moring and night. I also use it after going outside for more than an hour because i have been sweating or whatever. It's not a face wash that makes your skin dry so you use at least 3 or 4 times a day or even 5 times a day.

Cons

  • None!
  • moderate
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 5
  • I recommend using this treatment.

In reality, if you have dry skin, you shouldn't be using a 2% salicylic acid cleanser. I have used this in the past and it worked. I never had a problem with it drying out my skin. I recommend this for people who have annoying breakouts all over their face, not just little problem areas.

Pros

  • It does what it's supposed to do

Cons

  • It can be drying
  • moderately severe
  • inconsistently
  • $ 5
  • I recommend using this treatment.
