Pros:When i first started using this product, it really cleared up my skin, but I am starting to notice I am breaking out some more.
Cons:I like it other than getting a new zit almost everyday.
Bottom Line:Seems to be working okay, I added bp and some moisturizer to my routine, hopefully this helps. I hate the climate I live in, i think that plays a major role for my problem skin.

Pros:I started using Purpose when I started the acne regime and haven't been disappointed since. I've been so happy with the results and there has been very few breakouts. Sure can be a bit drying but I got over it by finally having clear skin
Cons:Bottle tends to leak if tipped and will fill up with water in the shower
Recommended:Yes

Bottom Line:It's my old stand-by. I always have Purpose and a gentle salisylic acid wash on hand and alternating depending on my skin's mood (dry-ish and sensitive or oily and acne-ish) is good prevention.
I usually use this one in the shower because it's so mild and the hot water dries up my skin. It's also good for removing residue from other cleansers and masks.

I really like this cleanser, even though it does go kind of quickly. It is very gentle, and ladies, it does a great job taking off makeup (as long as you wear, light, oil-free makeup). I tried to use the Purpose bar soap at first, but it really dried out my face. This face soap is a lot better if you have normal to oily skin, but if you have super oily skin you might want to consider the bar soap. Oh yes and it smells so nice... like fresh tangerines! :)

I really like this cleanser. I have been using it for quite some time before deciding to switch to Dan’s new cleanser out of loyalty to the brand and confidence in his products. My skin started to go downhill over the next month and I have changed back with good results. This cleanser does seem to be slightly drying, but to be honest that is what I need in a cleanser. Dan’s cleanser didn’t seem to deep clean my skin like this stuff does. I really like it and my face feels extremely clean after use.
