Pros:

Smells good, deep cleans, cleansing feeling, creamy consistency (once rubbed in), not oily, minimizes pores

Cons:

Dries out skin

Even if you have dry skin, like I do, you should still use it because it is a great skin cleanser. It smells awesome and every time you use it, you can feel it working (it's the benzoyl peroxide). I use it in the shower because the heat from the water opens the pores, for better cleansing. Afterwards, I use a moisturizer to prevent dry and flaky skin.

Pros:

Dries up acne
Nice smell
Doesn't dry up skin for the most part
Great as a mask
Awesome texture
Has BP

Cons:

Would be harsh if you don't have oily skin
Gets off makeup but will burn eyes

I have extremely oily skin. My cheeks are the only place that doesn't have any acne. This cleaner is the best drug store face wash I've ever used. I needed a wash that will dry up my acne but not my skin (like around my nose is the worst!) This cleanser kept my face oil free as long as it could. The dry skin around my nostrils only showed up when i would use this after a week straight. It is kind of harsh, but it gets the job done. ONLY RECOMMENDED FOR OILY SKIN!

Nuetrogena's secret acne blaster!

Pros:

leaves skin feeling smooth.
Has a good smell.(in my own opinion)
Clears out excess oils, and dead skin cells in pores.

Cons:

can dry your skin. (if used too often)

Hello my name is Brian Murphy, and i am a 15 year old male.I used this product of Nuetrogena for maybe one month so far and it works very well! i had mild to severe acne breakouts, and i tried using everything, nothing worked. Unfortunately for me its hard to find good products because I'm practically allergic to everything! The first day i used this product i was a little bit irritated at first, but by the next day my face was use to it. I use this product as a night mask, and it clears my skin like a beauty! I would recommend this products to anyone i know, and i recommend if you have low to mild acne.

Pros:

-Shrinks pimples.
-Less Oily skin.
-Amazingly cheap.

Cons:

None what so ever

This is so good! I used it twice and I immediately noticed the difference! My skin felt 10x better. And my acne have shrunken down. I used Noxzema before Neutrogena and I couldn't really tell the difference. And then I came upon Neutrogena, it's a must! Get it ;]

Pros:

-Nice tingly feeling
-Pores feel tight and clean after use
-Makes skin smooth
-Greatly reduces acne

Cons:

None other than it smells kind of funny in my opinion

It works great! I have very sensitive, mixed skin. Mixed meaning one area will be bone dry and another will be dripping with oil. It doesn't dry out any area of my face at all. I've been using this for two weeks now, once a day, along with witch hazel twice a day, and I am extremely excited to say that I have almost no acne left. This product works wonders!

Gave me my life back!
Hi Guys, Literally registered this morning in order that I could come back on here and spread the word on my now clear (praying i don't jinx it) skin. I have very oily skin, for years I'd always have pimples and about once every 3-4 weeks a big nasty cyst or boil would break out on my neck. Tried everything, even removing anything remotely enjoyable from my diet!! Here's the answer (at least it was for me)...................Neutrogena visibly clear 2-in-1 face wash and mask. I apply this 3 times a day and have done for a few months now, literally don't have even a blemish, face feels soft but dry. Anyone with oily skin will know how amazing it feels for your skin to feel "dry." Anyway just wanted to come back and let you guys know what worked for me, not affiliated with this product and here in Ireland it costs about 6 euro so not going to break the bank to even give it a try (I know when I was at my lowest I tried everything I could). Lastly I would like to wish you all the best, I know how relentless acne can be and I hope you all find a treatment or product that works for you. Many thanks.

Pros:

feels great on my skin, smells great, dries up my acne, controls oil, minimizes my pores, makes my skin feel smooth.

Cons:

i wish it came in a bigger package/tube.

it's great for people with moderate acne, like myself. definitely isn't for people with sensitive dry skin. it's active ingredient is benzoyl peroxide which is great for treating acne but can dry out your skin a little bit. if you have oily skin and large pores like me, you will probably like this product. if you have sensitive dry skin with light acne you might want to opt for a less potent product that does not contain benzoyl peroxide or not as much benzoyl peroxide as this product. maybe you should try something with salicylic acid or herbal ingredients. but overall, this product is great and works wonders for me!

Pros:

It really lives up to its name because is actually clears out your pores and it leaves your face nice and clear with a great complexion

Cons:

None what so ever

Thisis the best product ever I swear this stuff works overnight!!! It has a great tingly feeling and it really leaves your skin feeling nice and fresh and just beautiful!! I have sensitive oily skin and this works great! If I had dry skin it might be to harsh for me, but since I don't this is perfect. Also when I feel like my face is super oily and just feels gross and dirty I use it as a mask and leave in on for about 5 to 10 minutes then I rinse it off and then use the neutrogena clear pore daily scrub(yep they finally came out with a scrub). I probably use it as a mask once a week. I have been using this product for some months now it hasn't been a year yet and I love it! Usually I'm always trying new face products but now I finally found one that I can stick with! Thank you lord!

Pros:

-Shrinks zits by the next day
-The face looks less oily (temporarily) and has less blackheads
-Gives a really clean "stripped" feeling; like your pores were just competely cleansed

Cons:

-Dries up your face a lot which can make it compensate the next day with lots of oil. This is why I only use it at night when I'm having a particularly clogged up pores day.

I use it occasionally as a mask when my skin isn't looking so great and it usually straightens things up. All the blackhead gunk in my nose pores is either gone or has been so reduced that they are no longer black. This is sort of gross, but to give you an example, when I squeeze the skin on my nose a ton of gunk comes out from every pore. If I use this product for 5 minutes (letting it dry) I hardly get any gunk when I squeeze. I also sometimes use it as a spot treatment on the bigger zits but be careful or you can really fry the skin.
