Pros:

-tingly
-creamy
-HOLY GRAIL( LIFE SAVER)
-clears acne QUICK

Cons:

-doesn't foam..i like foamy stuff..but that hardly matters..
-can cause alittle dryness, nothing a moisturizer can't fix:)!

I use this once a day and that seems to be all I need. I was getting one bad break out every week and I thought id just have to rely on cover up for ever....but i also swim and people see these ugly things...nobody likes pimples..bottom line. I used this once, and the next day I could see a dramatic difference. Within a week my skin was better than every before. I have used proactive=sucked compared tothis.. and I used scrubs for ever...never doing that again.

Pros:

Minimize the size of my pimple.

Cons:

Dries out the area around my mouth, leaving it like a burn and red. It's You have to use a mosturizer.

Bottom line, only use it if you have really oily skin. Do not use it several times on your face. Only in the morning, afternoon and night when you're going to bed.

Pros:

Cheap
Buy locally
Creamy texture
High concentration of BP

Cons:

Didn't clear acne
Contains mineral oil and petrolem

This cleanser did not work for me. It is like most of the other cleansers out there. It's nothing special. I also looked at the ingredients and it contains mineral oil and petrolem which isnt too good for your skin. It works alright, but definatly not the best!

Pros:

CLEARS UP ACNE
helps leave behind smooth, soft skin
helps sooth red marks with cooling properties
one bottle goes a looong way

Cons:

dries up skin pretty bad when just beginning to use

I began using this after reading about the Regimen and finding out that my other facial cleanser did not follow the Rules. I began to use it every day and night, but for my skin that was too much, as it began to dry. So now I consistently use this every night with my moisturizer and spot treatment and have been for a little more than 2 weeks. MY SKIN IS TOTALLY CLEAR! My skin is also very smooth and soft, something I haven't felt in a long time. Try it!

Pros:

makes skin a bit more sensitive, some redness, have to use it 2 times a day every day, have to wear at least spf 15 every day

Cons:

soft skin, clear skin, kills blemishes very quickly, I get compliments on what beautiful skin I have and that has NEVER happened before

I adore this stuff. I really hope it never ever goes away because it has saved my skin so many times. I have sensitive skin, and while it does make my skin itch a bit (10% benzoyl peroxide will do that) it's really not bad at all if I use my SPF 15 moisturizer. I just use it on the bottom half of my face and my neck where the acne is the worst. I get compliments on my skin and I have so much more confidence. I've been a lifelong acne sufferer and NOTHING has worked this well in my 26 years on this earth. I wish I had had this product when I was a super insecure teenager.

This is the only acne cleanser I use. It keeps my skin clear (I follow this cleanser with the Clean&Clear 10% BP Persa Gel) I hope they never discontinue it because I love it so much.

Pros:

-works very quickly on clearing up acne
- tingly sensation afterward

Cons:

- dried my skin out a bit

I had CRAZY breakouts all over my forehead so I switched to this cleanser and within 1 week I was seeing results. My pimples healed really really quickly, and now they're all healed. I haven't gotten any new pimples since I started using this. This product can be a bit drying so just make sure you use moisturizer. Overall, great cleanser!

Pros:

None

Cons:

Both my sister and I used this product and we both, within varying hours of use, experienced severely swollen and puffy eyes. The puffiness has continued into the next day with itchiness, and is the kind of reaction that you'd need sunglasses to cover if you have to go out for any public outings. My sister had to schedule a visit to her doctor and will miss work because of it.

Something in this formula can cause user's eyes to swell to horrifying levels. I've read that others have experienced this, and cannot recommend this product, even though Johnson & Johnson and Clean & Clear are brands that I've trusted over the years. This product is going directly in the garbage, after a call to Johnson & Johnson's corporate office.
