Pros:

Light fragrance

Cons:

Glorified baby shampoo/wash. Lathers/foams up too much thus removing all oil from your skin leaving it dry and exposed.

Look at the ingredients of Johnson & Johnson Baby wash. The major ingredients (although in different proportions) are same. This cleanser suds up too much, thus emulsifying all the fats and oils on your skin and completely removing the skin's natural protective barriers. Although cetaphil doesn't foam up at all and doesn't actually clean your skin. I recommend something between these two extremes. Philosophy purity made simple is the best I have found so far.

Pros:

This product works really well, it doesn't dry out my already dry skin.

Cons:

The smell isn't incredibly fragrant, but it's not incredibly pleasant.

This product works really well, comes in a great pump bottle and doesn't dry out skin.

Pros:

I love the smell of this cleanser! When i put it on in the shower, and get out, my face looks and feels so much cleaner.

Cons:

Shipping cost is expensive. It's 11.50 for a tiny box. I ship things usps all the time and in state items for a tiny box are $4 at most.

Best.

Pros:

-Cleanses
-Not too harsh

Cons:

-A bit drying

Dan's cleanser was good and all, but it was a bit too over drying for me. I had a cleanser at home that accomplished the same job, but wasn't as bad.

Pros:

This is really good for my skin. Before, I used another gentle cleanser, but this is better, I have noticed that my skin is much softer now and the small bumps I used to get on my cheeks - from general skin irritation I think - are gone.

Cons:

None that I can think of

Great product at an affordable cost - even with shipping to Europe :-)

Pros:

It was good for getting dirt off my face.

Cons:

It did not work for improving my acne.

After using this cleanser for over three months and seeing no improvement in my acne I decided to try a new product; so I bought the Cetaphil cleanser and started using that. I have already seen improvement in my acne condition after one week!

Pros:

Lathers & cleans well, great price, lasts forever

Cons:

The "head" broke this last time, and it's a pain to take when traveling -- because there's no way to lock it, it will sometimes squirt into the suitcase. A push tab (like on shampoos & conditioners) would work better.

I love this cleanser; I love how just one squirt with a little added water will lather up really well. My face always feels clean & fresh after washing.

Pros:

Very gentle.

Cons:

Didn't clean well enough for me.

After three weeks or so of twice daily use, I realized my skin was looking more and more congested. So, I tried using toner after this cleanser and immediately realized that this cleanser just wasn't getting my skin very clean. I guess my mineral makeup and oily skin were too much for such a gentle cleanser. I switched back to my former cleanser (Olay foaming face wash for sensitive skin) and my skin was in much better condition within a week. I'm sure this cleanser is great for others, but it wasn't right for me.

Pros:

None.

Cons:

Just look at the ingredients -- it contains TRIETHANOLAMINE which has been linked cancer.

No thanks. I'd rather not put cancer causing soap on my face.
