Pros:

Is the only product so far, that didn't irritate my super sensitive skin. Love the smell and price. Is a foam which make it easy to remove. Leave my face really clean. Another one is that i notice that my face is more whiter (i mean like the complexion is really bright which i love)

Cons:

Like i have read here, it stop working.

I thought it was just me eating chocolate and not driking water, but after my second bottle, it stopped working. Right now i've been breaking same as before using the product. I will say if you have sensitive skin like me is good to use it in combine with another strong cleanser. I mean 1 morning the aveeno and in the night something stronger. To finish this the product does not irritate you skin, but i think is good for those with mild acne. Ps. I use for moisterizer the aveeno skin relief and is the only product the do moizterize my face all day and its not greesy. I discover this when i had a severe allergic reaction to a acne medication and this combine with calamine lotion repair it. My face was swollen and not even benadril would help. Those two worked like a charm.

Pros:

~The feeling of the foam on your face is great
~Clears up some acne, but not all
~Face feels fresh
~Reduces redness
~Works fast

Cons:

~Makes face really dry and flaky
~Doesn't completely clear up acne
~Only worked for about 2 weeks

This product was great, only for about 2 weeks. Then my face got used to it so it didn't work as well as it did when i first started using it. I saw immediate results after about 2 days and it cleared up most of the acne as well as reduced the redness on my skin. After washing, my face felt nice and clean, and the idea of a foam wash is excellent. Only after about 2 weeks when my skin got used to it, it started to dry my face around my chin, jawline, and mouth. Make sure you get the moisturizer along with this product if you want to give it a try, not everything works for everybody.

Pros:

Cleansed my skin
Helped clear my acne
Helped prevent new acne from forming

Cons:

Left my skin a bit dry
Didn't remove all my makeup

This is an average cleanser. It didn't cause me to break up, but it helped clear my skin. However it is too harsh to use during the winter time since it dried out my skin.

Drying, but Ive only used it for a week
First things first, I have only been using Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser for about a week along with BP and tretinoin prescribed by my doctor and a very heavy moisturizer. Here is what I have to say about it so far. PROS: -is very gentle and non-irritating -non comedogenic -overall it is helping me clear my mild acne CONS: -VERY drying -Skin is feeling a slight burn when I wash my face I will update this review after I have been using this cleanser for more than a month so I can be more helpful.

Pros:

Worked well at the beginning
like the foam
smells good

Cons:

only worked for about 2 1/2 weeks
bottle goes kind of quick

This product worked really well for the first couple weeks, had almost completely clear skin. When I was into the third week, it seemed to stop working and I broke out (in some places I usually don't get pimples). Im recommending on the assumption that it wasn't for my exact skin type.

Pros:

Smells nice
Foam(:
Natural
Has a pump
Not messy
Didnt break me out
Left my skin feeling clean
Affordable

Cons:

Didnt do anything for my acne(:

This cleanser is a great bargain, but unfortunatly did nothing for my acne! I think if you want reasults from this product, you have to use the whole line from Aveeno (wich, i didnt), wich maybe thats the reason it was not effective, but it was a nice cleanser over all! Plus it;s natural, with no parabins! And it was a foam wich is always an added bonas! Mambye it would be good for preventing acne, but getting rid of it , im not so sure....

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...

Pros:

smells nice
pump
foams

Cons:

does not clear acne completely

Foaming cleansers are my favorite because I feel like I am getting a deep down clean that washes away all grime on my face. Aveeno's foaming cleanser goes on gentle and lathers quite nice. I use one to two pumps for my whole face and neck area. I always remember to get the neck area because it's as equally important as the rest of my face. Neglecting that area can cause breakouts along the jawline and on neck. This can be very unattractive for girls if you wear your hair up often. Foaming cleansers are the best at lathering everywhere for a deep down clean. I don't think I could live without this cleanser in my regimen.

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:

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.
