Pros:Clears acne well and pretty quick results
Cons:makes skin dry
Bottom Line:I used to breakout real bad and couldn't find a good face wash, and my cousin had told me about OXY so I tryed it. In about a week I was pleased with the results it gave me. I have oily skin so I kind of have to keep up with washing or else... it does make my face a bit dry, but overall i get pleased with the results.

Pros:It dries oily skin and minimizes blemishes
Cons:It can dry out skin just a bit. Probably best used on moderate acne. It is runny, so one must be prepared to avoid coating the bathroom. Easily manageable, though.
Bottom Line:I used this product for about a year and my face was great. I switched accidentally and broke out within two days. I was quite surprised, considering the product I switched to was supposedly better. I'm certainly changing back, ASAP.
Recommended:Yes

Pros:I like using this wash. Yes, it is strong, but if you have an oily face it makes it normal while keeping acne away. No fragrance!
Cons:Dryness
Bottom Line:I've used this for a week and 1/2 and have had nothing but stellar results. It has dried up existing acne and is keeping my face clearer than I have been in over a year. I'm going to continue to use! Try it, you don't have anything to lose!

Pros:No possible acne, zitz, blackheads, or pustules in sight!!
Cons:dry skin in non-oiliy and normal skin areas, if you have even mildy sensitive skin this will devistate your face in all wyas possible!
Bottom Line:i dont have overall facial acne but ihave lots of little red dots on my forehead and n those tricky spots by my nostrils/ mouth. i get alot of not very noticable bumps around my cheeks and have some zit scars from picking at them and the odd papule or pustule. i've had super sensitive skin since i can remember ( allergic to simple things like dish soap, nail polish remover, and almost all facial makeup).

this product banished all zits but i had dry skin on the forehead and nose (wierd, because there my problem areas) and i got a little red and blotchy.

Was great for zits, but not good for redness or pore size, made me slightly greasy and gave my skin more problems to make up for the ones it got rid off. very harsh but if your face is out of control , i recomend.
