Pros:

You could really feel this cleanser cleaning away at your skin. Personally, I love the cooling after-effect.

Cons:

After washing, I'd get this crazy oil build up in matter of minutes!

This cleanser is not built for overtime usage. I've come to realize that my skin after 2-3 washes, would get immune to this product. So it no longer works. Sure, at first, my skin adapted great, aftwards......It just built up more oil! And my acne would get red as well.

Pros:

-Worked for the first 3 weeks or so

Cons:

-Occasionaly caused burning and itching
- Stopped working after a few weeks or so

I WOULD reccommend this product for very mild acne. But for me, It stopped working after a while, and my acne went back to normal, it didn't make it worse, but the breakouts just kept coming back like they used to. So i was very happy with it the first couple of weeks, now I'm dissapointed. BUT everyone's different, it seems to work for some other people.

I used to like this...
I used to like this cleanser, but they changed the ingredients. It now has ingredients that clog my pores like laureth-4. Why do they have to change what ain't broken!?

Pros:

Gets rid of acne and prevents new acne...for the most part.

Cons:

bleaches my hair, makes my skin feel extremely tight, never fails to make my skin shiny all day, burns, causes my skin to get red and itchy whenever i sweat, you have to take it 3 times a day or else you will severely breakout.

Dont ever get this product. You would highly regret it...trust me. I have been using this for over a year now because there is no other medication that really works for me, but thats besides the point. This has made my brown hair completely blonde in the front, made my skin feel as if it were trapped underneath of a mask all day long, made my skin awfully oily and shiny and wherever i go, people ask me why my face is so shiny and ask me if i have highlights in my hair and im sick of it. If you are EXTREMELY desperate to get rid of acne, buy this product, since its your only hope but if you just have average to minor acne, dont get it.

Pros:

cool, refreshing feeling, kinda tingly made me think it was working

Cons:

made my skin really dry! dry patches all over, my skin was very sensative when i used other products with it. and no results

a dermitoligist recomended this in one of my magazines so i thought id try it. But i really didnt see any results, besides making my skin really dry and sensitive. And i still broke out like i was before this product.

Pros:

It made my skin feel refreshed. That's about it.

Cons:

Dried my skin out. Didn't work.

I thought it would be great cuz it had BP. My face broke out and I was like why? I read the ingredients and it contains OIL. Most people with acne dont use anything with oil cuz it makes it WORSE!
