Pros:

It leaves your face feeling
cool
light
refreshed
clean
smooth
soft
clear
brightened
cleaned out
fresh
AMAZING
And deep cleans your face but it is so gentle it doesnt overdry

Cons:

a bit drying(see next paragrapgh for more information)

It helps clear up light to almost NO acne. I wouldn't suggest this to people who have severe or moderate acne. Althiugh it is slightly (look you guys only a bit) drying. It eaves your face feeling amazing!!!!! Fresh, clean, clear, and bright... I TOTALLY recommend this product to anyone who has no, very light, or light acne... it defnietly does clean your face, andn it claims all the things it says it does.

Pros:

It stopped the production of acne

Cons:

It didn't clear my acne
Burns if you don't wash it of for over a minute

I would recommend using another cleanser along with this one because all this cleanser did was stop zits from popping up.

Pros:

None

Cons:

I used it a couple times and my face broke out into red bumps all over my forehead, and some bumps on my nose and cheeks.

I'm not sure if I have a sensitivity to salicylic acid, but I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. My face looks much worse now.

Pros:

Smells good
Foamy

Cons:

Didn't clear up skin

I love Aveeno and their moisturizers, but the face washes did nothing for me. I was so disappointed. This may work some people, not for me. It wasn't as strong as I thought it would be. NEXT!

Pros:

Smells great, works wonderfully for the first month, lasts longer than I expected it would

Cons:

It stops working after about a month or two

This worked wonders for my acne the first month or two I used it. It smells great too. However, after those first two months, my acne came back with a vengeance and I had to switch to something else. I've yet to find anything at the drug store that works :(

Pros:

Smells good, pretty packaging. That's about it.

Cons:

Dries out skin
Not beneficial to acne
Does not even out skin tone

I bought this without really reading the label. My friend recommended I buy it, so I did. I only realized it was a foaming cleanser when I got home and tried it. I heard foaming cleansers are bad for your skin and can cause excessive drying. It did so. I washed my face with it, and despite that it says it will moisturize your skin, mine felt tight and uncomfortable. Then I started flaking. Despite this, it didn't get rid of my acne (Which was mild. This shows how ineffective this cleanser is). In fact, I think it made it worse. I started to get bumps on my skin which are not inflamed but just look wierd, so I gave up with this cleanser. I use it as a hand soap now. I'm trying to get my skin back to normal

Pros:

its light, creamy puts moisture, good for gentle skin. smells good.

Cons:

Dries out skin for the first time you use it, but after that pimples clear up. :) don't use with other acne products, will dry out skin.

Buy it!!!

Pros:

Smells good, easy to use, inexpensive
Bottle lasts a long time

Cons:

Skin got dry and flaky (even using moisturizers), so I switched to a milder cleanser
