Pros:

Gentle enough for sensitive skin, clears up blemishes quickly

Cons:

Bar form isn't great; would prefer a liquid.

I'm 23 and have never had much trouble with my skin until recently. I have sensitive skin, and had developed a small patch of acne cysts on my chin unlike any blemishes I had ever had before. I was also breaking out on my cheeks quite a bit. I had tried several other products (Neutrogena, Proactive, etc.), but it wasn't until I started using Cetaphil antibacterial that it started clearing up. I combine it with 0.5% salicylic acid, and my skin literally started clearing up overnight. This is a great product overall; the only downside to it is that it only comes in bar form, and my preference is for a liquid.

Pros:

wont ever dry our your skin, cause it to peel or just feel nasty, not only does it make your face feel fresh it also WILL cause you to only have an occasional pimple a month besides having breakouts all over. It is also over the counter :D

Cons:

none

get it, its cheap and it works

Pros:

It REALLY works!!!

Cons:

I wouldn't recommend using this product as a daily facial cleanser or 2X a day....

I have oily, acne prone skin and this soap works really well on my skin. My skin is also sensitive. However, this product is great for those days when your skin is..... exremely oil, dead skin build-up, feels yucky and much more. Gently splash your face with water, lather soap into hands, gently message into your skin, keep on for a few seconds and splash entire face comletely w/ water. Additionally, make sure you remove all the soap. Lastly, pat your face with a wash cloth/towel gently.... This product works REALLY WELL!!! It removes oil, bacteria, dead skin and much more... it help prevent, decrease or kill acne causing bacteria.

Pros:

I bought this bar soap a few months ago and had literally just 1 pimple per month. It is smooth, not too drying, very clean, and extremely gentle on your face. It is probably the solution to my skin!

Cons:

Just breaks apart easily. I keep it in a soap box and usually, when I use it again, it sheds off and comes apart quite often. It doesn't stay dry like most soaps, it retains too much moisture.

Get this and try it out. It's a must! You won't regret it. I personally think that it played a huge part in curing my acne. I used Dan's cleanser and Gentle Purposes' bar and both were over-drying. I also used various other brands such as Neutrogena and Nivea. They contained harmful ingredients to my sensitive skin. After using Cetaphil's anti-bacterial bar though, I have had close to no acne-related problems, and my skin feels like a baby's skin once again!

Pros:

it cleanses your face great and will reduce acne

Cons:

no blemish agents in it but u can always get creams for that.

This stuff is great!!! Ive been using it for almost a week and its my face wash come true. Ive been through so many washes and one thing i hate about most of them is that they don't wash off well and they leave my face feeling oily. CETHAPHIL DOESN'T DO THAT!!! this stuff washes clean. i also am seeing a bit of change in my skin tone. I use BP but i hate using it everyday because it made my skin dry and discolored. thanks to cetaphil i use BP twice a week and my skin is clearing with my tone coming back better then it was. I don't understand when people say the smell. i don't smell anything but soap!!! overall this stuff is AWESOME!!!

Pros:

No unpleasant odor, removes oil without overdrying, it yielded almost immediate results. Inexpensive, too.

Cons:

A liquid or "pump" version would be more convenient. This only comes in a bar form.

The first night I used it, I followed with a 10% BP cream and then a moisturizer (Aveeno). The next day I saw almost a 100% improvement in my mild to moderate hormonal acne. If you are going through the trial and error process trying to find something that works, then try this- it's worth a shot!
