Pros:

Very gentle and works, takes all the excess oil with overdrying. It is the only thing that works for me and my pimples go away. I love the foam. Foaming cleansers are best for oily skin

Cons:

None

One of the best drugstore items

Pros:

It smells good

Cons:

did not help at all with my acne.

I used to use benzoyl peroxide but would get breakouts about once a month so i thought i would try something different and used this for almost a month, but during that month my acne got continually worse. Clean and Clear is better than nothing but I definitely recommend a benzoyl peroxide product.

Pros:

Doesn't dry out skin badly, even though I have sensitive skin. Gets rid of makeup.

Cons:

Didn't really work to get rid of my acne.

Didn't do much.

Pros:

removes make up in a flash,helps to even out skin tone, decreases break outs

Cons:

has fragrance in it

i love this cleanser. dont know how well it works on breakouts alone because i use it with the clean and clear advantage moisturizer(THIS IS GREAT STUFF-THIS IS WHAT REALLY DECREASES ACNE),and i also use clean and clear blackhead clearing scrub once a week. i have seen amazing results since starting this regimen. i have less breakouts, smooth skin, even my dark spots are fading. i have tried EVERYTHING. so far this is the best regimen i only hope these products dont fizzle out on me. if they dont this will be my regimen for life.

Pros:

* Smells good
* Cheap
* It does leave your face clean

Cons:

* Too drying
* Doesn't treat acne
* Burns and stings skin sometimes

If your acne severity is light, use this product. My friend and I bought a few bottles of this product, because it was on sale. Unlike my skin which is acne-prone, my friend has very light acne. When she used it for one month, her skin was suuuuper clear. I bought five bottles. Personally for me, I've used this product for about 6 months. I'm on my 3rd bottle, and it hasn't been working! Well, sure, it removed very very few numbers of acne, but right after they're gone, new ones appear again! Yikes! Oh, I've also heard that this product is good for body acne, but I don't have any. I just want acne off my FACE. If your skin is totally acne-prone, do NOT buy this product. Sigh. 2 more bottles to go ...

Pros:

well..i like teh container.. instant foam XD..
n my skin feels clean aftr i rinse..i like that =]

Cons:

after i rinse...my pimples and zits and such are left red (but after a while the redness recedes temporarily)
my acne used to be so-so..not so bad...but now..i have more breakouts than ever. and they're huge, red and UGLY!

i guess it's okay, and since everyone's skin is different it could work for some people..but it really didn't do a lot for me and my skin. in fact it made it worse. now when if i run my fingers over my forehead..its all bumpy and nasty and uneven. before it used to be smooth with only the occasional pimple. my cheeks are dotted with ugly red mountains which are sooooo noticeable.. now..i end up looking horrible in any pictures that are taken and there's nothing i can do about it!! i really regret buying this product knowing that my skin used to be clearer than it is now. clean and clear my foot. :@

You won't get any new acne.

Does not clean/remove acne.

November 24, 2008

Pros:

Love the pump and the scent.

Cons:

If I use it in the morning my skin is SUPER dry and almost painful

I use this at night before bed, I have a weird switch-it-up routine...I use this when I have a tough pimple or acne flare up, it seems to dry everything up really well. I wouldn't use it everyday cuz it seems to be a bit harsh. As for blackheads...well its not really 'targeting' anything in particular for me...I thought I'd see a huge difference in blackheads since of its name, but its just another acne wash in a pretty purple bottle :P
