Pros:

Smells nice, inexpensive, since it's a bar soap, you can take it on a plane with you, creamy, smooth lather, also works for underarms, back, etc.

Cons:

Bar soap runs out more quickly than liquid cleanser

I have tried almost every product on the market for acne. Earlier this week, I had a terrible breakout. I have an event to go to this weekend and I was worried about the appearance of my face. A co-worker recommended this bar and I am so mad I didn't know about it before. I could have saved myself a lot of money! Buy it at Target, it's cheaper!

i have used alot of over the counter acne medications and none gives me the results this does.this is a miracle worker to help combat with acne.you may not see results after the first day but continue to use it and i guarantee u will see results.

My favorite cleanser yet!

Pros:

Improves acne
Removes makeup
Cheap & effective

After 3 days using the Cetaphil Antibacterial Gentle Cleansing Bar I noticed an improvement in my skin/acne. New spots stopped surfacing (unless I was menstruating) and all that was left were old marks and scars that are healing very well. I use this bar with a fresh washcloth daily and "scrub" very lightly in circular motions. This cleanser lathers well and rinses off easily once I am done. This bar can be a tad drying to my face so I follow up with a very small amount of Now Jojoba oil at night time for additional moisture. I have tried many cleansers as many others have too and I am thankful I came across this one as it had raised my self confidence and I now feel comfortable wearing little to no makeup.

Pros:

-helped with my acne
-doesn't dry/irritate my skin
-good lather, clean scent
-removes my makeup
-great price

Cons:

None!

I have been suffering from acne for 4 years (since I was 19) and tried many OTC as well as prescribed products and none gave me good results, until about 3 weeks ago I bought this bar and my acne is almost completely cleared! I use it morning and night everyday, and I don't moisturize at night. And I have reaaally oily skin and this doesn't dry or irritate it at all. I can't believe something finally worked! Definitely recommend!!

Pros:

It clears blemishes and acne, doesn't smell at all

Cons:

My face becomes very dry

I bought this product cause I kept getting acne cysts on my chin and one on my cheek and I couldn't seem to get rid of them. I read about cetaphil and they had such great reviews and I saw this soap for like $3 in Walmart so I bought it. Its been like 5 days and I see my chin clearing up. I wish my face wasn't so dry from it though.

Really a great product, kills the germs on your face!!

Pros:

Very gentle
Does not over dry the skin
Kills the bacteria on your face!

Cons:

None!

Oh my goodness this product is AMAZING! Seriously just buy a bar of this soap and try it, it's relatively cheap and it lasts a super long time if you keep it in a little soap case so nobody can touch it, also so no bacteria can go on it. I love to use this product to take my makeup off in the shower. I feel like it takes it all off after 1-2 times of lathering it on your hands, gentle rubbing and rinsing. No matter how much you use it will never overly dry your skin, and I know because my skin can get rally flakey and dry from this BP if I use a harsh cleanser! I use this followed by my cleanser if I am removing makeup :)

Pros:

Twice in the past few years I have had a rash on my face that my dermatologist treated with a prescription solution. The solution did not completely cure the problem. I then tried Cetaphil Antibacterial soap. The rash was gone in under a week. I was thrilled.

Cons:

It does get mushy if you don't let the bar dry. I put it in a plastic container with the top open. It air dries and then it's fine.

I would definitely recommend this product. And I like the smell.

Pros:

Stops acne DEAD in its tracks.

Cons:

None so far...love it!

Was broken out all over my face in those painful small under the skin pimples. Bought this bar on a whim and FELL IN LOVE. All I use now is this and Acanya gel. Skin is flawless (other than a few scars left from picking...I know that's a no no).
