Pros:

The affordability.The large size of the BP tube.
I purchased the cleanser and one tube of BP, and WITH shipping it cost me less than if I were to buy Cetaphil cleanser and 118mL of BP here in Toronto.

Cons:

I'm a satisfied customer overall.

The cleanser does not overdry or irritate. The BP does not leave white streaks, which for me is amazing since the BP I used to use (Spectro) would leave toothpaste-like marks all over my face. I used to use Cetaphil cleanser in combination with Spectro BP (or whatever other BP was available at the local drug store) and my face felt a lot worse than it does with Dan's products. These products simply agree with me.

Pros:

A little goes a long way, so with a bottle this big you won't be buying face wash again anytime soon. It also does clean your face, almost too much. Fragrance-free or if anything, too little to notice.

Cons:

My biggest complaint is OVERLY DRYING!!Also,with shipping it's pretty pricey, although if you buy a whole bunch then it's not too bad.

For a long time I thought it was the benzoyl peroxide that was drying out my face until it looked like sand paper and was peeling like crazy. I had to constantly put a moisturizer on my face. I started to reduce the amount of bp until i was only using a tiny dot on my face. unfortunately, I was still getting the same results. I started to think that I was allergic to bp. But then I went on a trip and forgot my facewash at home. Instead I ended up using my mother's. Miraculously my face began to get less and less dry until I didnt even need to use a moisturizer any more. I even increased the amount of bp. The first time that I used Dan's facewash after I got home, the flakiness started to come back and for the first time in a week I had to put a moisturizer on. For about two months I had had extremely dry skin and coulndnt figure out why. Now I know that it was the facewash that dried my face out like a raisin in the sun. I definately will not be buying this again.

Pros:

Lathers great, very economical size.

Cons:

Hard to rinse off all of the soap from the sink.

This is a great cleanser for the shower. It gets rid of all the makeup and dirt on my face. I feel like my face gets really clean and I'm able to rinse off all of the residue in the shower. Plus, the soap seems to last for months! However, I would not recommend this soap for washing your face in the sink though. Very difficult to get rid of the residue with only light water pressure.

Pros:

- Silky Smooth Application
- Positive Solution for Shaving
- Large Bottle

Cons:

- Too Overdrying for Combination Skin Areas
- Shipping and Packing Costs Too High
- Fails to Penetrate Cleansing Deep Enough

A generally quite good product depending on your skin type, but it appears that flaws are present. Parts of my skin find a good tolerance with the product and therefore it proves effective in the job it is aimed for, however for combination skin like mine certain areas around my Nasal regions have massively over dried leading to flaking that very few moisturisers can touch. Overall though for the application and the anti-irritation factor for shavers, this is a good product. I think another guy may of touched up on this, but it would be a great idea if 'Dan' could introduce a FREE sample or charge a small fee for a much smaller sampler. The cost implications involved for a poroduct that potentially may not work is quite frankly off the scale. I'm in two minds on whether or not i shall stay on this and fight it out, on the other hand i'll probably move away from it. Read before you buy, it's not for everyone.

Pros:

Very gentle; has worked well with Dan's BP solution to clear up my tough acne. Doesn't leave skin as dry as other cleansers.

Highly recommended, works better than (even very gentle, like Basis) bar soap at helping to prevent acne.

Pros:

I don't have acne, but have very sensitive skin...this cleanser is great and does exactly what it say's it will do...clean your skin gently, great foaming action and does not dry out your skin. Great price.

Cons:

None.

If you are worried about the shipping cost, buy more than one..and it even's out....This is a great cleanser for ANYONE who wants a gentle and non-irritating cleanser that does not upset and dry out skin. A great choice and I will keep sitting on my hands waiting for the moisturizer....

The best!
I have always been hesitant to try top new acne regimens, however this one has done amazing work on my skin. I use this along with the treatment and moisturizer. It does not dry out the skin nor make the skin oily. My struggle with acne ended here and I couldn't be more grateful. I now wear a bare face out in public and don't feel any embarrassment.

BEST ACNE CLEANSER EVER !!
I was so hesitant to try the acne regimen...Been suffering with acne since I was 11 and you can imagine I've tried a lot of so called acne treatments from drugstores to high end products and nothing ever worked, it even made it worse. But I came from reviews and thought I have nothing else to lose and I'm so glad I took the plunge. Honestly if you have been suffering from bad acne your whole life or just barely and you're hesitant to buy these products I say don't. Of course everyone has different skin but if it worked for me it can work for you. This cleanser literally cleans your face from any bacteria that gets on your face and prevents ANY future breakouts. It works so well that if I stop using it I will get a breakout UGH ! so I make sure to wash my face day and night. Another great part about this whole system is is it lasts forever. You only need one pump per day/night and it lathers really well. Nothing but positive things to say about this product.
