Pros:

Cheep
Effective
Fresh feeling

Cons:

Dry skin /:

I wear a lot of make-up to cover my break outs. I typically break out on my cheeks, and on my chin. The spots can be verrryyyy bad, to the point where I don't want to leave my house. And considering I'm a high school girl, the way you look means EVERYTHING. I've been using this product for maybe a month now. I've developed my own system which is starting to work for me. I use Clean & Clear make-up removing wipes, then The Clean & Clear Continuous Control Acne Cleanser. (10%BP) Then I use C&C Deep Cleaning Astringent, (0.5% SA) and after, I use C&C Spot Lotion, (2% SA) I still have marks, which I expected. The majority of my acne has gone away, but I do still have the pesky ones that won't go away. I expect that with any product though. And you HAVE to stick with it, or it won't work for you. But I'd say that yes, it works and I'd recommend it (: P.S- I'd follow most of the instructions, but leave the Continuous Control on for longer that 30 seconds like the bottle says. Go for about a minuet of lathering, then get your hands wet and lather again. It seems to work better that way-for me at least. (:

Pros:

KILLS acne-causing bacteria.

Cons:

10% Benzoyle Peroxide can be pretty harsh. It's drying at times. Maybe only use this once a week.

If you get any on your clothes or towels, it'll take the color out.

Yes, I reccommend this. It's fantastic for killing acne. However, it's really strong so I reccommend maybe using once or twice a week.

Pros:

Prevents acne
Dries out pimples
Skin feels tight and fresh

Cons:

Overdries the first few uses
Bleaches hair very easily

This is another clean and clear product that works great for me. I wanted to find a BP cleanser to replace my SA cleanser and I happened to come along this first. On first use, I cleansed my face at night, and woke up the next morning, and before even looking in the mirror, I was very happy because my skin did not feel oily like usual. I jumped out of bed, ran to the mirror, and wow! No overnight breakout...and my pre existing acne was practically gone. My face, however, was clearly overly dry. I felt like I just used accutane...my chin was peeling with dead skin, but hey, i'd rather have dry, peeling skin instead of red acne marks all over. And another thing: my beard was bleached completely white overnight. I looked like santa, but it was my fault for not reading the warning label on the product...sadly, my beard that I was growing out had to be shaved that morning. Besides a dry face and a dyed beard, this product has been working wonders for me.

Pros:

- Smells amazing (I love the smell of mint)
- Leaves a tingling sensation afterward
- Does not use salicylic acid (hard to find in normal individual acne washes, and I'm allergic to it)
- Dries out my oily skin

Cons:

- Probably would be overly drying for people without oily skin

I love, love, love this cleanser for the price. Most people thing the smell is too strong and it dries their skin out, but for someone who absolutely adores mint and has extremely oily skin that simply does not dry no matter what, this is a PERFECT cleanser. The price is great and works better for me than most expensive products. I will continue to use this cleanser along with their persa-gel. (My skin is so oily I can use one after the other up to three times a day and not notice a drying effect. I always moisturize afterward though with Cetaphil.)

Pros:

Smells good
Clears acne fast
Tingly feeling
Leaves skin feeling fresh

Cons:

Kinda stings eyes

I'm 15 and have been using this product for around a week and am in love with it. For the last year I have been using oxy which also contains 10% benzoyl peroxide and it would always leave my skin dry and irritated, with clean and clear my skin feels clean and fresh.

Pros:

Works fairly well if used correctly
Does not dry out skin

Cons:

Does not work unless you use it once a day, every day. If you use it 3 or 4 times a week it will not work very well. If you use it more than once a day it will dry out skin.

Use it once a day every day and this is definitely a good addition to your skin care routine

Pros:

-Smells great!
-Clears acne fast and effectively
-Great for oily skin

Cons:

-It doesn't exfoliate, so you might have to exfoliate along with using the product

I'm 13 and I have moderately oily skin and this cleanser really clears up the oil. It also banishes pimples AND blackheads in a matter of a week or so and helps your skin in the long-run by stopping breakouts from happening in the first place. It has a great menthol smell and makes you skin feel clean after use.

Pros:

good price
smells great
love the foam
cleans skin by getting rid of dirt & oil
YOU ONLY NEED THE SIZE OF A DIME

Cons:

Its not a miracle product but it does work

I have been using this for about a month or so. i use it once a day at night because in the morning i use cetaphil oily skin cleanser. Anyway i used it by myself for awhile and then i bought clean&clear toner (orange) and it stings , buut im not sure if it gets the job done because i use exact mousterizer and the mousterizer clogs pores i just got 5 whiteheads overnight. But i would say the clean&clear continous control cleaser is great! its been helping me.
