I'm starting to think I'll be doing my skin more favors if I just ditch all the fancy face washes foracne and simply use a gentle cleanser without the [sometimes harsh] acne treatments. My poor skin is drying out, and it's not like the medicated face wash is on my skin for that long anyway... Wouldn't it be better to clean off dirt and makeup with something simple and gentle, then use a spot treatment for pimples? I'm thinking Cetaphil or something of the like for a face wash. Just seems like all the treatments I put on my face is just irritating it!

Hmm I agree. Not all acne face washes are bad, but if your skin is getting irritated it will only lead to further skin problems!

 

I highly highly recommend cetaphil face wash. It's so so gentle. It may be too gentle to wash off makeup, but I don't have experience with that.
