Pros:

I find it works really well. I have moderate acne and after I started using the cleanser It cleared up almost completely. Mind you, I still have a bit left, but nothing like I used to. I use it once a day, at night when I shower.

Cons:

It took almost 2 weeks to start working and at first it really made my skin dry. I now use a Nivea moisturizer at night and it cleared up the dryness within a few days.

It works well enough. Its definately worth the money.

Do not buy this product!!!! After the second day of use my face was covered in tiny bumps like goosepimples. My skin was taut and inflamed particularly under my nose and chin. My eyelids also became swollen. A total nightmare!!!!

Pros:

Gentle, seemed to help clear pimples at first and prevent SOME new breakouts. Nice smell.

Cons:

Sometimes leaves skin feeling like it's covered in dead cells. Doesn't help with make-up removal or exfoliation, drying affect.

I use it with the Clean & Clear Advantage Moisturizer and it seems to work okay. Leaves my skin feeling a bit scaly, like it needs to be exfoliated... only I don't want to add other such products due to this product's drying effect. It DID balance out my oil though, my oily regions are drier now and my dry regions haven't been too harshly dried out. Just moisturize every day. Also, need another product to remove makeup, because this one is too creamy and doesn't do the job in that regard. You can feel it medicating your pores. Seemed to prevent breakouts for a while, but I guess my skin overcame it or something...

Pros:

Smells nice, feels refreshing.

Cons:

Not worth the price, dries up skin terribly if not used with a moisturizer.

Buy it if you have oily skin then its worth it otherwise its too strong!

This product has worked for me by clearing up and reducing the size of the acne eventually (mostly in about 2 days for me) but as for preventing new breakouts it hasnt lived up to its promise. I still comes back in about 2 weeks time. I alternate using this product in the morning and clearasil at night. It does dry your skin but you cant see dryness..recommend it.

Pros:

It has a faint floral scent. It starts off a gel, then it foams when you rub it on your face. It doesn't dry out my face! It does what it says it does..it gets rid of oil.

Cons:

Haven't found any.

Use it with the Clean and Clear Advantage On-the-spot medication...It works!

Pros:

Clears acne, Leave's skin feeling clean and tight, Washes off easily

Cons:

None

It does for me exactly what the name says! Leaves my skin "Clean & Clear". I had used Noxzema Blemish Scrub for years, but then they took it off the market and decreased the amount of Salicylic Acid in it so I had to find a new acne face wash. I tried Neutrogena and St. Ives- St. Ives did nothing for me but make me break out and Neutrogena was okay. Clean & Clear is actually BETTER than Noxzema!
