Pros:

-cheap (with insurance)
-makes skin really soft.
-Clears acne and helps just over all appearance of skin.

Cons:

It smells, so what, get over it.

It makes your skin feel really soft and smooth. I have used it for awhile now (about 6 months?) I came off of it for a couple of weeks just because I ran out and was too lazy to go to Walgreens. I instantly noticed a difference in my skin, my cystic acne came back. I've had acne for years. Ive been on everything you can think of (seriously) differn, birth control, retin a, pro active, an asortment of antibiotics and so on. Just try the wash. It works pretty well, worth a shot.

Pros:

Has helped me tremendously, and my face is now clear (knock on wood).

Cons:

Like some have said the smell. You notice it at first but get use to it and forget about it after a short time using it. Also the price if you don’t have insurance. I think I pay around $8-$10 so I’m not sure how much it can be without insuran

Hi, I have gone from Accutane, high doses of Minocycline, and Differin Cream, to this. I can't recommend this product enough. While Accutane and Minocyline helped, (especially Accutane) you can't use them forever. This product, for me, works. I use it once in the morning and apply Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer since it can be a little drying, but nothing horrible. At night I use Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser with Differin Cream. I still use Differin Cream since it's easy on my face and think that it still helps my skin. I emphasize the Cream since the Gel would probably be too rough for my face. I also take Minocycline dose once every 3 days since I'm working my way off of it. Also don't eat right before you go to bed. Let it digest. I has helped me as well. I'm not saying this will work for you, but coming from someone who has suffered from acne for years and had only temporary solutions, I strongly recommend that you try this product for a few week

this is a great product!!!! i do not have severe acne problem but my dermatologist recommended it for the blackheads i get in my chin and nose--- i have been using it for only 2 days and my blackheads are very noticeably just starting to disappear!!!!!! this is the most wonderful thing ever i only paid a co-pay of 15 dollars i have definately spent way more on a bunch of products that never gave any results!!! if you are looking for a mild - severe acne solution i would definately recommend this product:)

Pros:

-Keeps acne away
-Rare pimples if any
-May help redness
-Probably one of the best creams available I've tried
-Works

Cons:

-Smell for some people but doesn't bother me.
-A little difficult to rub in/make sure it's not visible on face.
-Costs $35.07 for a tube with coupon if insurance doesn't cover it. (pro or con)
-Should have used it sooner!!!

I am using this with Epiduo gel. I alternate one day with the Clenia cream and then the next day with the Epiduo gel. I wash my face 2x a day with Aveeno Clear Complexion Cleanser. I use AM Cerave 35 SPF lotion in the morning and no lotion at night. My skin was more sensitive than I realized because only the small amount of salcylic acid in the Aveeno cleanser made my face red at first, but I got used to it. I needed something that would be gentle on my skin. Clenia is less harsh on skin than the Epiduo gel, but they work well together alternating.

Keeps acne away

Pros:

It's 100% effective. When I first started going to the dermatologist for my acne, she prescribed several products. This is the only one I have to use now to upkeep my clear skin. With my insurance, I pay $10 for a 12oz bottle that lasts 10 weeks.

Cons:

It drys the skin a little but all that I needed was a pea-sized amount of an over-the-counter face cream to combat that.

It works and I would recommend it to anyone! I started using it three months ago after years of acne and I haven't had a breakout in at least 6 weeks...not one pimple!

Pros:

I have moderate acne rosacea and was prescribed Clenia wash as part of a daily regimen. It has worked wonderfully. I couldn't be happier.

Cons:

The smell can be a little bothersome, but it is not enough to hinder me from using the product. It's a small price to pay for clear skin.

I am more than pleased with the results I've seen since using Clenia wash to control acne rosacea. I would recommend it for anyone plagued by this horrible skin condition.
