first time user...i usually use Mac face wash but since i live here in Japan and they dont have Mac store around here and didnt want to order online so i decided to use something over the counter..MAN!! my skin broke out within a week or two...so i thought maybe i should use for couple more weeks, maybe i have to get used to it? it got worst..so i asked my self is it the face wash?? and it cant be my Mac makeup cause ive been using for years....as right now, im reading all this reviews and i have the same problem with others..i just threw it away just now and going to try other products..if it doesnt work then i might just well order it online...=(

Pros:

Seems to work well, good foaming cleanser, nice smell, leaves skin feeling clean and reduces redness, swelling.

Cons:

None that I have seen yet.

I would recommend this product over some of the other harsher products I have used in the past. I tend to buy more Aveeno products, because it has a a good name, since it is oatmeal based, it is better for your skin than some of the other harsher stuff on the maket today.

Pros:

Fresh feel
Took of makeup

Cons:

Did not take care of acne...at all

I would only recommend this for people who do not have acne problems, which is what the product is actually supposed to help, haha. Other than that, I was upset with this product and that I wasted money :(

Pros:

Doesn't dry out my skin too much, the foam doesn't disappear and feels rather lovely.

Cons:

It doesn't make my blemishes clear up at all - I still have had lots of breakouts. Plus it doesn't remove makeup. I use a blemish-fighting toner from Mary Kay with it and see a ton of makeup come off onto my cotton pad.

It's not my favourite. Since I have to use it in conjunction with an eye-makeup remover, a toner, and tea tree oil to spot-treat, plus a couple applications of moisturizer to even out a bit of the drying, I'd much rather find a product that doesn't take that much work.

Pros:

Leaves my skin feeling and looking soft and clean, and more even-toned than after using a harsher cleanser or scrub. Takes off eye-makeup! Concentration of salicylic acid is only 0.5% so it is unlikely to irritate most people.

Cons:

Packaging: the pump sticks every time. But it does have a plastic cap to cover the pump, so it is very convenient for (non-airline) travel. People who are *extremely* allergic to salicylic acid should not use this.

This foamy cleanser is fun to use, and will take off ALL makeup in just one easy, deep-cleaning, gentle step... so there's no excuse for falling asleep in your make-up anymore, ladies! ;p You will, of course, still need to use a topical treatment like Benzoyl Peroxide as a spot treatment or on trouble areas to get clear skin, but that is true with all cleansers. I have been using this off and on for a year, but started using it consistently over the last few weeks as I am trying to break my addiction to apricot scrubs. I do find that I still feel like I need to use a scrub every few days for some extra exfoliation, but, hey, I'm an addict! My skin is not totally clear, but I had a horrible breakout a couple of weeks ago, and I am finding that it is healing well since I started using this. Worth the $7 to try it if you wear makeup, as even if you don't love it, you will sometimes reach for this at the end of a long night to cleanse your face quickly before falling asleep.

Pros:

Great smell and packaging
Foaming texture

Cons:

Extreme redness
Tight feeling after each wash
Dryness and irritation
No improvement in clearing acne

I used this product half a year ago, when I was suffering from terrible and consistent breakouts. After each wash, my skin felt really tight, red, and sometimes flakey. I was very disappointed with this product.
