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:

-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***

The product is great when the pump works. It sticks, won't release

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:

-Makes skin soft...
-Doesn't dry out skin.
-Cheap...

Cons:

-Doesn't Do Much For Acne
-Smells like cheap purfume and alcohol...

It's a great cleanser for oily skin but I'd never recomend it to someone even with the lightest of acne....

Pros:

makes your skin feel very clean

Cons:

makes you BREAK OUT!! doesn't do anything for acne

I tried this, and it made me break out like crazy. It doesn't help acne either, but it does make your skin feel clean.

Pros:

Cheap

Cons:

I'm breaking out
Don't care for scent

Did they change the formula or something? I had the exact same experience as the previous reviewer. I have used various Cetaphil cleansers including this one a number of times in the past with no ill effects. About two weeks ago I bought a new bottle of this and I've broken out quite notably. I'm not PMSing so my face should look great this week. I haven't changed my treatment regimen. This is the only culprit I can identify. Weird.

Pros:

it's good to clean the face without aggravation

Cons:

It doesn't clean dirt and oil can build up on your face. After a few days of using it my face started to look and feel dirty

is ok but isn't for everyone

Pros:

Affordable, Easy to Use

Cons:

No longer feels like it cleans my face!

I have acne and dry skin so I was looking for a gentle cleanser that would not aggrivate my acne. When I began using this a couple months ago it was great! Went on well and washed off clean and my dryness went away. I just bought a new bottle and the texture is creamier and it is more opaque instead of clear. After washing it off it feels like it left a film and that it did not completely wash off. Maybe it's a new formula?
