Pros:

i like everything about this product. My skin feels very refreshed after i wash with this cleanser and it takes off all of my eye makeup, its also very gentle.

Cons:

none so far

I have had very bad acne for about a year now and this is my favorite cleanser i am also on medication right now so i cannot give a fair review on how this cleanser has helped clear up my skin but so far my acne is slowly going away. overall i just love this cleanser and many doctors recommend this product so you know that it is a good product!

Pros:

Cleans skin, cleared up break outs, effectively got rid of makeup.

Cons:

None

I have always very beautiful skin that borderlined dry. After I had my baby pow! Everything changed I had acne for the first time in my life at 30 years old. After trying over priced cleanser after cleanser I could find, and SCARRING my face from picking I asked a friend who has lovely skin what she uses and she said Cetaphil. I thought it was crazy because I have never purchased drug store cleansers but I have been using this product for 4 days now and honestly I look like the old me! My skin is clear, bright the Cethaphil DRIED out the scars and they fell off in two days. Love it love it love it...I don't need to wear foundation anymore!

Pros:

Affordable

Cons:

I have very oily skin, and this product has done little to control the oil build-up. I almost wish that it would dry out my skin like some other reviewers! Also, not very good at removing makeup at the end of the day.

Probably would be better for people who do not have very oily skin.

Pros:

cleans your skin

Cons:

doesn't do anything for acne

i have combination oily/normal skin, but the oily portions of my face are REALLY oily (aka shiny, greasy). this, though it did clean my face pretty well, did not really do anything for my oily skin; it was still pretty oily. i probably won't buy this again, since i found a more drying cleaner

Pros:

-removes oil (if you use cetaphil moisturizing lotion with it)

Cons:

-does nothing for acne

its an okay cleanser, it 'cleans' and you can tell. im using accutane at the moment and the drug itself is good and does tremendous work. although with the cleanser im doubting that because i get like 2 new pimples at the end of the week and iv been using for 3 months im thinking of switching to spectrojel ***basically if you have normal skin with a few flaws, use this***

Pros:

Doesn't clog pores or dry out your skin, gets rid of oil.

Cons:

A slight stinging sensation.

This is an amazing cleanser. I don't have much acne, but my face felt ALOT cleaner and softer after ONE use. I'd recommend this to anyone and if you have acne problems, just use an acne cream after you use Cetaphil. I've used Cetaphil for two days and it got rid of the redness around my chin and nose as well as my forehead. Not to mention it comes in a huge bottle and it's very cheap so it'll last you a LONG time! :) It has a slight smell to it but it's not heavy, it just smells like soap.

Pros:

Easy to use, gentle

Cons:

Did nothing to help acne
Fragrance

I thought that maybe a really mild cleanser would help my acne. This did nothing to hurt or help. Although I noticed that like another post, I have gotten breakouts along my jawline/hairline (where I never breakout)... It did not promise anything for acne, so it did what it said. Was a good face wash and my skin felt clean but not over dry. Still gonna try something else.

Pros:

Removes surface oil and dirt effectively.
Leaves skin feeling soft, doesn't strip face of essential oils.
Comes in 16 oz bottle and lathers nicely, lasts a good amount of time when washing 2-3 times daily.

Cons:

Will occasionally leave areas around mouth and eyebrows dry if not using a moisturizer.

I use to have severe acne but my regimen, below, fixed it quickly.

1.Rinse face with warm/hot water 2.Dispense 1 pump into the palm of your hand 3.Massage gently** for 45-60 seconds (massage the cleanser using only enough pressure to pull dirt/oil across your face and out of your pores/ DO NOT press hard when cleansing or else you are forcing the surface residues back into your pores, creating more problems) 4.Rinse the cleanser off using water, not your wet hands... 5.Wait 5 minutes or until your face is completely dry 6.Use a witch hazel toner/astringent with as little alcohol as possible (I use T.J. Dickinsons Witch Hazel) on a cottonball/cosmetic pad/ or sterile gauze 7.Smooth the toner over your face gently, and let it air dry 8.Do this twice a day, you'll notice a positive difference with your skin almost immediately...If you're an athlete and you need to wash your face in the middle of the day, don't use the toner, just cleanse thouroughly and then cleanse and use the toner again before bed 9.Cetaphil Daily Facial Moist

Pros:

reduces oil. that's all.

Cons:

DOESN'T HELP ACNE AT ALL. If anything, it made my skin worse.
Fragrance-free? Alot of people have said it calms their skin, it seemed to agitate mine.

I would not reccomend this product if you have acne. it sucks. I am regretting that I ever purchased this. I think I'm allergic or sensitive to the ingredients in it. I purchased the Purpose bar the other night and can already see a reduction in the zits cetaphil left along my jaw line [where I never break out]. THIS STUFF IS BAD NEWS STAY AWAY FROM IT.
