Pros:

I have used Seabreeze for years. If you have had poison ivy or poison oak rash you need the original Seabreeze. Spray 2-3 times with Seabreeze. Rash will dry up. WORKS EVERYTIME. WHY had it been taken off the market?

Cons:

If your skin is irrated it will burn, but It will kill the rash.

Original Seabreeze is impossible to find in North Central Arkansas. WHY?????? I have never had acne but it is worth the price???? to have for drying up the poison oak and poison ivy rash. My medicine cabinet was never w/o it until I tried to restock and was told that it was not available.

Pros:

-smells nice
-makes your skin feel clean
-worked for my boyfriend really well
-cheap

Cons:

-It didnt seem to work for me but I still say give this a shot, it seemed to have almost all positive reviews

Really really really wanted to love this product. I'm at the end of my rope and hoped this would be the last thing I would need to purchase to save my skin.I feel like i'm getting a lot more whiteheads and pimples on my cheeks which I never got before. Idk if i believe in 'purging the skin but I dont know how much longer it needs to 'purge', been about a week now. I ordered some black soap off amazon and until that arrives i'll continue using this and hope to see a change. While to others they may not see my acne as all that bad it is my own biggest insecurity and I now hate to wear make-up because I just feel like I draw more attention to the problem. My boyfriend really likes this product though, he has nice skin to begin with but it does look even better. I say give it a shot, if you're like me what do you have to lose? I feel like all the reviews I read before I purchased were positive. Hopefully I can re-review it soon and will have changed my mind.

Pros:

Going through hormone changes, I started breaking out with pimples (and I'm 44 thank you). This is the only thing I have found that clears them up and keeps them clear. Used it as a teen, using it as a grown up. Love it. Why did they change the formula? Actives does not work.

Cons:

None. Love the sensation and the clean feeling after using it.

Nothing better on the market for the price. The original formula has been changed and is now Actives...doesn't work the same and I don't have near the results!

Pros:

It's helped to clear my acne up considerably, cheap, smells decent enough. A friend reccomended it to me with a good testimony herself so I figured I'd try it.. I'm glad I did! :)

Cons:

It stings a little, but thats pretty normal.
It seemed to make my face look a little shinier than normal after most applications..that went away eventually. I noticed that after applying it makes the red marks more pronounced, but that fades too.

Definitely something to try! I use it after I cleanse my face with AcneFree Cleanser and it's been working, slowly, but then again as someone else said, it's not as powerful as BP or something. I also use it jointedly with ACV, so that might have something to do with its effectiveness.

Pros:

It works

Cons:

It burns a little but that means it's working

I'm 54 years old and I don't use this for acne When my daughter was a teenager she used it for acne. I had a severe case of psoriasis I scratched until it bled it hurt terribly. At that time the label didn't say astringent its said antiseptic for the skin so I use it. It burnt terribly at first but in a week it started to heal. In a month it was gone. For the past year I have had a fungus in my big toe and everything I used didn't work so I decided to put a little sea breeze in a spray bottle and try that. 20 minutes after the first spray the green infection started to turn black as the fungus died. It's been 2 weeks now and my toenail is almost totally clear. So to the makers of sea breeze thank you very much

Pros:

Great for acne and for dandruff caused by oily skin.

Cons:

Harder to find than it used to be.

I wouldn't have used it for thirty years if it hadn't worked for me and it my dermatologist hadn't agreed it was okay to use on my sensitive skin.

Pros:

This product is great-- I am bummed that it has become so hard to find. I have been using it for about 15 years, and there is no decent substitute out there-- it is tough enough to cut through the oil on my skin without being harsh.

Cons:

I have nothing bad to say about this product except that I wish I could still find it in stores!

I have sensitive, yet oily skin that is prone to breakouts, and I highly recommend this product. It is very, very refreshing and makes my skin feel cleaner than washing it with soap does. It also helps with my acne A LOT.

At least it smells good...
I have fairly sensitive skin. Just changed my whole routine and added this. It smells amazing, has a slight tingle. Not drying at all, if anything helps me to retain moisture. My skin looks better after three days twice a day ( but im also using other new products). If its not whats making my face better at the very least it smells great
