Hibiclens : Antimicrobial and Antiseptic Skin Cleanser

I cannot live without this product. I've used everything from powerful oral antibiotics to tea tree oil for my HS, and nothing worked even close to as well as this product. It is a dream come true, after 10 years of pain and embarrassment.

My skin improves on the first day when i tried it. Even though i am using this product like 2 days, it is just great that a cleanser doesn't dry out the skin! And i also see that my zits are just drying out. So in a couple of days or a week or 2 i would be completely clean. Atleast in theory(i hope i didn't jinx it)

Although I had pretty good results w/ DK's Cleanser, AHA, and BP; it still seemed like I was barely winning the battle most days. I have been relatively patient b/c new cysts seems to die quicker, however it still doesn't seem to be really preventing new one's from developing. After reading reviews I picked up a bottle of Hibiclens at Rite Aid. Application: Cleanse w/ DK's Cleanser, then buff w/ a damp non-abrasive facial sponge + Hibiclen. Allow it to dry like a mask, then rinse. I then apply my moisturizer + AHA (no BP). After 5 days I'm about 75% clear and have been able to discontinue BP for the last 4 days; which was causing skin discoloration. Can it be this simple?

be sure to rinse off completely (i always use Dan's cleanser afterward). highly recommended as a part of Dan's regimen (just use it before his cleanser, and after any exfoliating cleanser if you use one).

I cleanse with Earth Science Clarifying Cleanser, which is oil-free, soap free, and non-drying. I then follow that with a Hibiclens scrub--pour hibiclens on a dry cotton pad and gently scrub all over my damp face for at least 2 FULL MINUTES before rinsing. It's very important to scrub long enough--when I first tried Hibiclens it didn't work well because I didn't give it enough time to kill the bacteria. The cotton pad also provides gentle exfoliation. I then use a toner--Earth Science Clarifying Astringent. In the AM, I then apply Mychelle Clear Skin Serum (with SA and retinol), in the PM I use Collective Wellbeing Sal 'n Sul lotion, which is oil-free and contains sulfur and Salicylic acid. After work, I cleanse briefly with a SA and Glycolic Acid cleanser that is also non-drying. For months I was using all of these products WITHOUT hibiclens and could not get clear. I added the Hibiclens twice a day and this is the clearest I've been in YEARS. No cysts, no big red pimples!

Buy the 16oz bottle ONCE ([link removed]) and refill it with the 1 gallon bottles on Ebay. Over the last 15 years every other product I have tried has failed me. This is the only one that so far seems to work. I use this about 3-4 times a day. DO NOT GET IN EYES or EARS. This is not hard, just be careful and flush your eyes out extremely well if you do.

Good product that finally helped my skin.

I just use it for my back now (i'm afraid of putting it near my eyes), but it doesn't do anything for my back either. big disappointment after reading all these rave reviews.

Adding this to my routine in just the last week has made truly an incredible difference. I've had moderate to severe acne mostly all on my face and although products like benzoil peroxide and salic. acid help to control it, I seam to never be able to get it under control. Although it is too early to know 100%, so far this has helped the deep pimples to go away and I've not had a breakout since using it. It seams that the Hibiclens removes all the bacteria and microbes on the face which allows the acne to heal as normal skin would. This is the first product that has worked well enough to the point where I thought I should review it for others to know about it. I don't know if it will get rid of all acne but I would certainly try it with your routine and see. I use it once every night as the last part of my routine. I just rub it into my skin leave it on for a few minutes then wash it off with water. Hope it helps some more people. God bless.

This is a good post-cleansing treatment as well. I use a gentle cleanser first, then exfoliate gently and then put this on my face (keep it out of eyes!). Let it sit for a few minutes and gently massage it in. Then rinse thoroughly. It can be drying but What I do is use kinerase lotion afterward (contain kinetin which renews skin cells)and then follow with a moisturizer. This cleanser dried up my acne almost overnight with no new active acne forming.
