not sure
I am really not sure about this. my skin used to be oily and now it's dry. I thought it kind of helped but I am not sure if I should continue. I am really insecure about my acne and don't know what to do. I also use this other acne cream called epiduo forte along with this.

Good for Teen and Possible Once a Week for Older Skin
My daughter really likes this but it is just a little too much for my skin. I think that I could use this once a week but not as a regular cleanser. Also white sheet and towel alert - it bleaches so use light or white sheets and towels.[link edited out]

stings but effective if you can stand it.
this was awesome for my skin when I was younger, but man does it burn something fierce. I never used a moisturizer with it, so it would dry out the areas around my mouth and eyes pretty badly.

Pros:

-Feels SO refreshing after washed off
-Gentle, good for sensitive skin
-Does not dry out your skin at all, leaves it feeling so soft
-Does not make your skin oily

Cons:

-Not very effective on acne

I was dying to try this product out because I saw so many good reviews on it. I really love the tingly sensation after being washed off. I really like that about Clean and Clear cleansers. It was a nice creamy consistency, and gentle. But after using the entire bottle, not much happened to my acne.

Pros:

prevents and treats some acne, doesn't dry out skin

Cons:

if I don't spend time making sure I've washed all the residue off, my skin gets very oily by afternoon.
doesn't work as well for me as other products with BP have.

More like 3.5/5. by no means miraculous results, but I'm allergic to salicyclic acid and can hardly find any other products without it! still, this works well enough and doesn't seem to make my acne worse. I switched to Oxy a while ago, which has been MUCH better. Both have the same amount of benzoyl peroxide so I'm not sure what the difference is. sensitive combination skin, cysts and whiteheads mostly.

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:

Reduces redness
Doesn't smell too bad
Soft skin
Not harsh

Cons:

Doesn't clear up acne or scars

This is an OK facial wash. Reduces spot size and redness slightly but doesn't get rid of the spot entirely. Gives you lovely soft skin and doesn't irritate your face.

I didn't notice a difference.

Pros:

-cooling feeling that does last
-works for a little while
-no harsh smell
-10% benzyol peroxide treatment without drying out my skin if used even more than once a day

Cons:

-no immediate results acne seems worse actually

an okay product but a typical over the counter product with typical results.
