Best ever.
I've been struggling with acne for 19 years (according to the picture in the quiz, moderate acne). I've tried so many things that helped, but never cleared it up 100%, until this. I bought it on a whim, because the store was out of my usual facewash. It worked great. I use it once a day. My cheeks are not dry and flakey anymore since I started using this product. I moisturize with baby lotion daily as well. I still get a few small ones due to hormones just before my periods, but they are easily treated. I love it. Only con is that I noticed some color bleaching on the neckline of some of my shirts. Switching my routine to washing my body after washing my face has stopped it from happening.

Out of curiosity were you able to restore the color to the bleached clothing?

Dries out acne to an extent
This helped me in drying out most of my acne but they would reappear if I stop using it. I saw best effect when I used a good amount of it but there's a side effect of dryness and flakiness. An ample amount of moisturizer is needed to suffice for the dryness.

Pros:

Clears acne
Clean smell
Works fast

Cons:

Makes my face itch sometimes after use

I have been using this product for about a week now and so far it seems to be clearing my face. My face broke out bad, my chin, forehead, and cheeks. My face was looking like a pepperoni pizza it was that bad! I've always had light acne but this was so embarrassing I didn't even want to leave the house. So I got on here and read good reviews about the product. I use this product twice a day usually. In the morning and afternoon I work nights so I hardly ever wash my face at nighttime. I try to exfoliate my face every other day with aveeno smart essentials scrub. Then I use clearasil ultra rapid action treatment were my acne is mainly at. To moisturize I use eucerin daily protection Moisturizing face lotion. That seems to be working for me so far. Bottom line this product worked for me so yes I would recommend it.

Pros:

Clears acne
Clears Whitehead's
Most of all acne!

Cons:

Drys face pretty fast.
The smell is kinda weird.

I hate lots of blackheads & Whitehead's around my nose, forehead and chin. I used this product & after a week I saw results. Just use a moisturizer after applying it to avoid dryness.

Pros:

Afforadable and effective

Cons:

It can ruin your clothe if it gets on it, especially bathroom rugs.

It was overall a good product. It definitely cleared up my acne like no other, it even made my face appear as though I was wearing makeup. Compared to other products who were expensive and ineffective this product was cheap and it pretty much did it's job.

Pros:

Keeps my fresh fresh, and is a quick fix.

Cons:

Today I'm going to the doctor because my face has a slight red rash, I'm not sure if it's from this exact product or the clean and clear astringent which by the way took all the acne off my forehead.

Two days ago I started using this product, I had an area of acne on my forehead and one on my cheek. I used this product with the Clean and Clear astringent and today my face is like brand new. All the large red zits on my forehead are now small little bumps that I predict will go away in a few days. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT.

Pros:

Helped clear up breakouts.

Cons:

Really dried out my skin, and is pretty rouch on it so I think it slows the fading of my red marks.

Just make sure to put on some kind of moisturizer after using this. I have oily skin, and immediately after using this product my skin gets that tight, stripped of oil feeling. Overall, though, it did help clear up my skin (I used this with minocyclin and tretinoin, too)
