April 12, 2009

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:

Very Gentle

Cons:

After a long day when I im very oily or sweaty , my face doesnt seem clean like it does when I used my Cetaphil bar.Sometimes it leaves dead skin on my face(visibly).

It doesnt dry out, on calm days it does seem to clean. Definitely worth the price(of the big bottle). I do recommend it

Pros:

This cleanser has a great thick consistency and rinses clean without drying. The biggest surprise is how well it removes eye makeup without stinging--it works better than any cleanser OR eye makeup remover I've used!

Cons:

I do miss fragrance a bit, although this has a subtle natural fragrance.

Highly recommended, especially if you also remove makeup with your cleanser. Safe for use on eyelids. An A+!!

Pros:

Cleans you're skin yet doesn't leave it feeling irritated, red, and stripped. Lathers very nicely.... you're skin feels clean and nice after this, no irritation whatsoever.

Cons:

None, but sometimes the skin closest to my ears and hair line itches a little, aside from that though, nothing.

LOVE IT, and I will continue to use it from now on. It was just sitting around in my bathroom untouched, after an attempt w/ the regimen a while back that wasn't successful (my skin is too sensitive for it) and the other night I decided to use it as my skin has been really red and irritated lately from using too harsh of cleansers/treatments, and wow, it was heaven in compared to all my other cleansers! My face wasn't red after I used it, and it didn't feel irritated and itchy! It actually CALMED my redness and irritation!!!! I can't say the same for any of the other cleansers I've ever tried...!!!

Pros:

Great cleanser! Leaves my face feeling very clean!

Cons:

It smells kinda nasty
Tends to overdry my skin

Overall its a great product. I really can't stand the smell, but it cleans my skin well, which is worth it.

Pros:

Large quantity for a low price (i got the 8 oz in the starter kit). goes on easy and rinses easy. leaves no residue.

Cons:

not a good shaving cream (dan recommends using it to prevent variables. personally, ill stick to shaving cream)

great stuff. gentle and doesnt strip your skin. a ten second gentle wash leaves your face feeling clean and refreshed

Pros:

Simple to use, easy on the skin.

Cons:

Doesn't work too well.

Give it a shot, it could be right for you.

Pros:

Scent free, easy on the skin, good size so it lasts a long time.

Cons:

Shipping costs

I came on to this site by accident and decided to test it out. I was already receiving proactive which was ok but rather costly. I liked that these were bigger but still cost efficient. It works really well for me. I never had severe severe acne but would still get some break outs here and there specifically close to that time of month. Since using all 3 of Dan's products I now only occasionally get break outs. On a positive when I do they aren't that red and they clear up very quickly now, typical with in 2 days. I would recommend at least trying it out. I just canceled my proactive today. Its going to be nice to have a product that I can order on my terms but still get a good price.
