Pros:

There are none. This stuff is the crappiest acne treatment I've ever used. It feels good when I apply it (because it tingles), but I ended up with more pimples on my chin and forehead than when I started.

Cons:

Makes me break out, leaves the smell on my face long after I've washed it off, and the consistency is incredibly runny.

Seems to work for most people, but it just doesn't work for me. I ended up throwing it away, because my skin just didn't feel clean. I'm now treating a chin full of acne because of this product.

Pros:

It is SOO AWESOME

Cons:

You can't use it alone

I had a sudden break out. I first used acne free(worst products ever!!) so i switched back to my first skin care regimine. Wash with noxema original. TOne with witch hazel moisturize with a non-acnegenic treat with equate benzoyl peroxide once perday. Acne free made my skin really bad. but noxema worked fast to shrink the pimples I had and remove them. I love noxema. Yeah sometimes it won't prevent zits, but what can you know? For the most part it keeps you clear, moisturized,and smelling great. But you have to use it with the other stuff I mentioned or it won't work for acne provne skin.

Pros:

affordable, been around for 90+ years, multiple uses

Cons:

can be a bit drying, don't get it in your eye, strong scent

I'm switching back to this product, because it seems to be the least harsh on my skin, and does not have a laundry list of ingredients like some other products i've used. the scent can be a bit overwhelming at times. but i love the texture and the cream acts as a spot mask too. i also use this as a shaving cream and a lotion on my eczma the menthol is very calming for itchy skin.

Pros:

It comes in a small, useful package, smells great, keeps my acne at bay, and reduces redness and swelling of pimples. After 3 days my acne began clearing up. It takes ALL the oil off my face!!

Cons:

It didn't clear all my pimples up, and i would get breakouts sometimes, but it mostly cleared me up.

I reccomend this product, my mom used it when she was younger and it cleared HER acne up and now its helping me get over my pimple problems.

Pros:

~Very Cleansing!
~Leaves my face feeling smooth and clean!
~Prevents new acne from popping up!

Cons:

~Although it prevents new acne, it doesn't really get rid of any acne you already have.

I would definitely recommend that people use this as a cleanser *after* their face has completely cleared up! It prevents new acne, but doesn't get rid of any acne you already have. But either way, your face will still look clean, bright, and awake! Love this stuff and fully intend to re-purchase after I have achieved clear skin!

Pros:

Deep cleanses normal skin
Refreshing and (good) tingly
Creamy

Cons:

Didn't help once acne became moderate

My mother had me use this for years and it worked well until my acne became moderate and then severe. For anyone who has really light acne or just wants a really great cleanser, I would recommend it. For acne of any severity though, there are much better products.

Pros:

Affordable, Leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean without drying or over-moisturizing my skin. I have also used it on sunburns and it works wonderfully.

Cons:

None for me.

This product is the only one that has worked for me. My skin is normally a little on the dry side with some oily spots and it works perfectly for all of that.
