Pros:

leaves skin clean, without filmy feeling; doesn't over dry if used in the right amount; amazing results.

Cons:

Can over-dry skin if use too much; no exfoliant version; SO hard to FIND!!! (GRRR)

I LOVE THIS STUFF. Honestly, this beats anything else I've tried before. There's no burning, tingly, or other stupid sensations, it smells like nothing, and it leaves your skin so clean. I love it. Love it. Love it. but I can't friggin' FIND IT. It's wicked economical, too, since one tube of the stuff lasted me about 3 months using it once a day! If you see it, BUY THIS. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.

Pros:

Soap-free, Oil-free, The price, The scent, A clean clean product

Cons:

Absolutely None

This is the most wonderful cleanser I have EVER EVER EVER used. This was recommended to me by my Dermatologist and I could not be happier-It is the best!!! It is soap-free and oil free. It is not expensive and has the BEST SCENT. Normally I would stay away from anything with a scent but this product is really different. I have used very expensive cleansers and they did nothing but break my skin out even more. I recommend this very highly. My skin has never looked and felt better. I has been using this for a long time and will never give it up!!! Try it for the price there is nothing to loose-you will not be disappointed.

Pros:

This product makes my pores open and drain and i feel so good afterwards. Th smell i couldn't rate a six with smilies, but it is a 6!

Cons:

you do however have to make sure you rinse all of it off, other wise your face becomes sticky.

Perfect for everyone, if my skin can handle it, so can yours!

Pros:

I have been using this at the recommendation of my dematologist for decades. I am 50 something now and still use it. I have sensative skin so mu choices are limited.

Cons:

hard to find. Marcs in Ohio carries it for a resonable price $4, but most others are $6 and more. No cons other than that.

I would buy a case at a time if I can find it

Pros:

Cleans well with out stripping. Great for oily skin. Last a long time; a little goes a long way. Oil-free and soap free.

Cons:

Can only purchase online or from Ulta stores. The smell can get annoying.

Very gentle for normal to oily, or acne prone skin. I am amazed at how well it removes my makeup too. I have stoped using Cetaphil and replaced it with this since it removes makeup better and has botanicals. If you are looking for an inexpensive, gentle yet effective cleanser, this may work for you.

Pros:

I LOVE IT! I've tried everything from prescriptions to really expensive department store products. Finally my dermatologist recommended Basis and my face has been clear for years. I wish they sold more products like body wash and moisturizers!

Cons:

It's hard to find unfortunately...

I love it. I think it's the best thing out there!

Pros:

it doesn't have ANY harsh chemicals not even salicylic acid yet breaks down blackheads

it uses aloe vera to help with irritation

can be used on super oily skin (like mine) or super dry (like my friend's) and still totally eliminate cysts, blackheads, zits, breakouts, pimples, and irritations

even clears body acne

Cons:

absolutely none

this clears all skin when given at least 2-3 weeks if not more depending on the severity but should still be pretty clear by then. keep in mind that it has to not only clear skin but flush out chemicals and toxins from previous products.

Pros:

Love the smell. Cleans very well, does just what it needs to. Good lather.

Cons:

A bit pricey for what you get, but not bad. Slightly drying, but not to worry with a good moisturizer.

If you're expecting a miracle, think again. However, this does just what it needs to do; it cleans. I love the scent, though I typically stay away from fragrance. Hasn't irritated my skin at all. Make sure you're using a good moisturizer when using this. Great for oily skin.

Pros:

I have been using this for about a month, and i absolutely love it! It doesn't dry your skin out, and you don't need very much to wash your entire face. I love the smell, too, it is really relaxing. Also, a plus that it is all natural!

Cons:

None for me! I was able to find this at Fred Meyer, but I dont know if that store is everywhere or just local. They just started carrying it so check around!

Goes great with the regimen, and I am definitly going to keep using this face wash!

Pros:

LOVE the way this feels on my skin- no residue, doesn't over dry, but makes skin feel CLEAN, large size, don't need excessive amounts of the stuff.

Cons:

Use very little, otherwise, it can dry your skin out. Otherwise, nothing.

I love this stuff. Found it in Stop&Shop, and will def be using this from now on. I used to use Clean and Clear, which made my skin tingle, but that was about it. Instead of using globs of stuff, a little on the tip of your forefinger is all you need, and your face will thank you.
