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:

Soft, lathers well. Helps reduce white heads by a lot.

Cons:

If you keep in a travel case, it gets mushy after a while.

Really helped me! I coupled this with epiduo and my skin looks much better. This is the best soap I've tried.

Pros:

I have had moderate acne for the past 2 years which got out of hand when i came off my birth control (yaz) I broke out in horrible cysts around my jaw and was prescribed antibiotics with clyndamycin gel. The gel works great on acne already erupted but does nadda for prevention so i tried this bar out while, of all things, i was shopping around in the Philippines.　The pharmacist on hand told me to really give it a try. I figured, eh whats 10$ to me, so i got it. I noticed immidiate improvement

Cons:

Can dry out your skin a little but if you use a moisturizer its all good.

Its the only thing that has ever given me immediate results, its 6 days after and the majority of my acne has cleared up.

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:

Inexpensive, cleans skin and clears oil.

Cons:

Retains a lot of moisture so it's hard to take places, even if you do have it in a soap container.

My dermatologist prescribed a cream, an antibiotic, and then told me to wash my face with this for a few months before I began Glycolic Chemical Peels. I stopped using the cream because it irritated my skin too much, and the antibiotic pill really messed up my stomach. But this cleanser is absolutely fantastic. I have mega-oily skin so I wash my face two to three times a day, and this definitely does the trick. I have noticed a relatively large improvement in the condition of my skin, and I've tried EVERYTHING (Proactiv, AcneFree, Clean and Clear, Clearasil, The list goes on...). I definitely think that this cleanser made a huge difference.

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).
