Pros:

Easy to apply, travels well because of the pump and cap, not irritating or drying, soothing to skin, managed acne

Cons:

Did not completely clear my acne, but made it very easy to manage

It reduced the amount of pimples I had by at least 75%. I'm stilling trying to find the right combination of things, but I think this face wash is part of the right combination. It completely cleared my husbands face. His skin looks amazing! I'm pleased and continue to purchase it.

Pros:

It smells really good and has a nice feel. Makes skin feel softer and smoother. Reduces look of inflamed acne or redness

Cons:

It doesn't really work. It reduces acne for about 3 days then doesn't really do anything. It sometimes has a mild stinging feel as well.

This product really doesn't work. It smells nice and goes on smooth so it might be for people who have little to no acne and want to use sometimes or as a morning cleanser. Or someone who wants to reduce the oil on their face. But truly does nothing for you.

Pros:

Light, cleans well, not terribly irritating

Cons:

Somewhat drying, pump dispenses wasteful amount of product

Not fabulous, but not bad. My skin is not particularly oily now and has become more sensitive lately so this is not for me, but I would still recommend it for someone with average/oily skin. Cleans well without stripping too much. I would prefer unfragranced but doesn't smell bad.

Pros:

it was very gentle and i liked the bubbles. doesnt make skin dry.

Cons:

it DIDNT do anything for my breakouts, really it sucked. it didnt last every long either. each 'pump' used up alot for cleanser then realized.

i recomment for people with really sensitive skin with no ance. its like a general cleanser.

Pros:

Smells awesome, made skin really soft, improved skin texture (some what), not irritating, sleek packaging, foam feels nice on skin, and so far no pimples.

Cons:

Not a lot really. I wish it could fade acne scars (wait...I think it did...no wait...I used a blemish control toner for that). Oh, and maybe the cost could be a bit lower.

It makes your skin really soft and makes your skin smell nice, and it should definitely be recommended to those who want their skin soft/want a better smelling cleanser/want an improvement to their skin texture.

Pros:

smells great. i love the foam. feels good. makes my skin soft. good looking.

Cons:

i don't think it deep cleans, because the foam just doesn't seem to penetrate. didn't help my acne. the foam pump stopped working after a week of use. i think the microclear technology is bogus.

could be for anyone either without acne, or with very light or occasional/hormonal breakouts. it didn't serve the purpose it was supposed to, but i enjoyed myself while washing my face.

Pros:

I'm not gonna lie, it's a nice cleanser :)

Cons:

Only good for maintaining a good complexion, not really to curea bad one. I'd say it's good for people with really, really light acne.

If you're looking for an acne TREATMENT, this is not the way to go. It only contains .5% Salicylic acid, which is almost nothing at all. However, it's really nice for when all you want to do is give your skin a mild cleansing. Just don't forget to moisturize aftermwards.

Pros:

Smells great, felt nice on, gave my skin a tingly feeling,
worked quite well

Cons:

not very many, but it doesn't work miracles, didn't get rid of everything.

This is a pretty good product for very mild acne. It helps keep the skin glowing, and nice, and it was pretty good for me, but didn't get rid of everything on my face. (I also use it with the toner, and hydrating formula)
