Pros:

All around great product for people with oily skin.

Saw a difference within days.

Cons:

None in my opinion.

I discovered this product by the reviews on this website and I decided to give it a try. I felt that because Cetaphil has worked so well for me I owe something to the people who came before me and recommended it. Within 1 week the majority of my acne has cleared up.

Pros:

Cleans face
Gentle wash (maybe bad for others)
Cheap
Doesn't irratate skin

Cons:

Doesn't treat acne by itself (which I didn't expect it too and I'm totally fine with it)
Feels weird after you rinse it off, but whatever
Funny smell, but it can't be any worse than putting piss on your face and smelling that(there are people that actually do it I have nothing against it and if it works for them, well good for them)

I've been using Rodan and Fields Unblemish for awhile, but I think around December they changed the formula and made it stronger which really irratated my already really greasy, sensitive and very dry skin. I had a very nasty breakout which I have very small permanent scars from. I started figuring out that the less chemicals I put on my face the better it was for the skin. So I removed the toner from the kit and used only the wash and the old moisturizer from when it was ony 2.5% BP. Just recently I ran out of the wash and I was at Target looking for a wash. Now I've heard of Cetaphil before, but was skeptical about it. So there I saw it on the shelf and was like "This is the wash I'm trusting my face with for the next two weeks. F**k it Cetaphil it is." Wow. I really like this stuff. Its way cheaper than what I used to get and I'm just blown away. One tip though. Wash with hot water and wash the grease off and open the pores then put this stuff on rub it in and rinse off with hot water.

Pros:

Cleanses really well
Helps with inflammation

Cons:

I have really oily skin so it stays quite dewy for quite a bit but gets oily again right around noon so I have to blot my face every now and then.

It's not helpful towards blackheads / whiteheads though.

I agree with those who said if you have bad acne, then get it treated medically instead of relying on facial wash. My sister had really bad acne and she kept on giving up (changing her dermatologist). But one day she decided to completely change her diet and commit to one dermatologist for 4 months before she could see the differences. Now she's acne free. I guess you really need to be patient. I know it takes a lot but getting stressed out would not help. Trust me. Don't stop using it just because you can't see the progress in a week or two. If your acne is not that bad, try Clinelle's blemish clear (i don't know if you can get it internationally) but it works really well for zits. and it makes my skin less oily too.

Pros:

gentle on skin
nice smell
easy to use
pretty cheap for how much you get

Cons:

dried out my skin
made me break out in a HORRIBLE round of cystic acne!

ok, when i first got on the regiman i was using this, dans bp, and complex 15 moisturizer, and everything was going great! but after a few weeks of that, my skn broke out in about 6 or 7 HUGE cysts! i was in shock, and miserable! i couldnt figure out what was doing this to my skin all of a sudden, cause i have had breakouts of a couple zits around the time of the month, but never any this bad! so i did some research on cetaphil and figured out that a lot of people were having the same problem with it! because of some ingredient that i can't think of the name for! so i immediatly began searching for another cleanser, and came upon alba pineapple enzyme facial cleanser. it was a liiiiittle pricy, but totally worth the cost! it instantly took away the dry skin that cetaphil did, and made my skin soooo soft and smelling amazing! it also has AHA in it, so it actually cleared up my skin and gave me a beautiful complexion! i would DEFFINATLY reccomend the alba pineapple enzyme facial cleanser to anyone!! but the cetaphil one im not so sure i would.... but everyones skin is different so i guess i would give it a try to see what it does to your skin if you have never used it before!

Pros:

-cleans very good
-no residue
-takes out all makeup very easilly

Cons:

-smell sucks

- I will like to take back what I put before. I realize that the reason I broke out wasn't this cleanser, I think it was because I switched BP to Neutragena's spot treatment(It really irritated my skin), I really don't know why I broke out more, but I recently used it for about a week, again, and I didn't have any huge problems. I just can't figure out If it is the cleanser or if it was just that my skin was just going to break out the way it did. Still, I was wrong to blame it on cetaphil, since I am using the cetaphil moisturizer and I don't have any problems with that. Anyway just try it.
