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 amazing before and after use.
Feels light during application, not heavy or oily.
Makes skin very smooth and soft.

Cons:

Makes my face really dry throughout the day, more towards the afternoon. It is helping with my acne, and I had oily skin before so it's a good thing, but at times it makes my skin so dry it itches, and my lips have been getting really chapped as well.

It's a great product, but watch how much you use depending on your skin type. Mine is oily so I use 3 pumps, but it makes my skin dry. So I will decrease to 2 pumps. I also only use it once daily.

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:

This cleanser is gentle and light, and helped keep my skin clear.

Cons:

If you visit [link removed] you will see that this product actually has a lot of ingredients that are bad for you. Also, I found it expensive.

I like this product, but I don't think I will use it again after reading about how dangerous it is. I think I want something non-carcinogenic. Please visit the link: [link removed]

Pros:

Soft, convinient and kinda help with acnes.

Cons:

Does not provide CLEAN feeling.
Personally, I like clean and crispy feeling after washing my face.

I have been using this product for several months now. although it did not make my face dry or make my acne worse, it sure did not have any effects on me. it is just a cleanser to me. not special at all...
