Pros:

-fragrance free
-non-drying/irritating
-great prep for medication/moisturizing

Cons:

None

I have unbelievably sensitive skin- I break out in itchy bumps when I sweat, am allergic to common cosmetic ingredients, (talc, bismuth) and avobenzone sunscreen burns my skin. This stuff kicks some serious butt. I hated Cetaphil,(regular and oily) Purpose, and Eucerin Redness Relief. I rub jojoba oil on my face and let sit for 10ish minutes before wiping it off and using NEGC. I then use topical medication. Depending on the medication, I will use either an AHA moisturizer or my Neutrogena oil free moisture for sensitive skin. My skin is sooooo soft.

Pros:

-Very Gentle
-Great For Removing Makeup
-Unscented

Cons:

None that I've found so far...

Kind of unrelated con is that the pump broke on it when I accidentally pulled off the top, although that doesn't effect how the product itself works.

I had been using salyclic acid acne wash, and I kept getting really huge red rash type things on my face without the acne going away. I switched to this and I no longer get the redness, and my skin is no longer dry and flaky. I use this with BP cream, and my acne is a lot better. I use a moisturizer with this too, but unless you get really dry skin you probably wouldn't need it.

Pros:

Doesn't dry out skin, cleanses skin well,leaves skin soft.

Cons:

none

This product is great, it has a lotion texture and it startled me at first, but no worries about that anymore. I haven't broke out from this and those winter flaky's have gone away. I really like this!

Pros:

I guess it helped the dryness of my combo skin a little although I did not see a marked improvement

Cons:

I dislike the consistency it feels worse than rubbing lotion on my face and my face definatly broke out from it.

May work for some with the use of the BP. Didn't dry out my skin but, didn't feel nice either.

Pros:

Great for sensitive or dry skin!!

Cons:

The pump sucks. Mine didn't work at all so I took one from a Neut. Acne Wash bottle, cleaned it, and used that.

It does what it advertises: it gives moisture back to skin without irritating it. I like the lotion-mixed-with-cleanser texture. It also smells really nice! Since my face has been improving and I've been wearing less makeup it removes it all.

Pros:

Very gentle.

Cons:

Felt itchy and greasy on oily skin. Did not remove BE makeup effectively.

Just didn't feel clean enough for me. Though I have oily skin, it's very sensitive, too. I was hoping this would be the answer. It's not.

Pros:

Light with good feel and goes on easily,rinses off well

Cons:

the pump dispenser sucks, you twist the top but it doesn't pump all the time on a new bottle. Ive had to use the old pump on a new bottle sometimes.

Great cleanser, a bit pricey but can be found pretty cheap at Target

Pros:

No smell, doesn't overdry, makes skin feel comfortable and soft and smooth.

Cons:

None!

This stuff is amazing. Until now I used the Neutrogena foaming cleanser which I realize totally over-dryed my face. I'm using this sensitive skin cleanser with the neutrogena healthy skin lotion. So far flakes and dull dead skin are just melting away. My face has a nice glow to it and I feel like the moisturizing quality of this facial wash is helping to heal my acne faster, which means less redness. Love it!!!

Pros:

no sodium/ammonium lauryl sulphates. nuff said.

it DOES cleanse, just because it doesnt foam, does not mean it is not doing its job. great for controlling irritation from BP.
