Pros:

This cleanser worked for about 2 weeks and then my skin was back to the way it has always been. It is great for sensitive skin and doesn't irritate it at all but it isn't clearing my acne. I recommend this product for someone that has very light acne

Cons:

Sometimes drys out skin but it isn't bad
Doesn't clear pimples

If you are trying to get rid of acne this product is not for you.

Pros:

Did clear up some pimples

Cons:

caused my skin on my cheeks, upper lip and forehead to tighten and peel. NOT GOOD FOR PEOPLE WITH MILD ACNE

It was pretty good the first few times, i was using it once a day (half the recommended) by day three my skin was very sore and starting to peel (this is with even the oil-free skin cream that came in the multi pack). I use it now maybe once a week, the foaming is not good for people with combination skin (i only have pimples in my t-zone). Wouldn't recommend it to people that don't have a large amount of active pimples as it does not seem to prevent new ones any better than just washing your face with plain water. (well unless you want a heck of a lot of pain!)

Pros:

Leaves my skin feeling refreshed, swept away dead skin, reduced redness.

Cons:

Uhh none.

It worked pretty good on me. It didn't fully get rid of the acne it just reduced the redness and inflamation in my pores. I loved how it left my skin refreshed! I have ALOT of oil on my face and this product helped control it. As other people said it works on youngsters ( i'm 13). my parents even noticed how my acne was getting a lil bit better.(:

Pros:

Cleans REALLY deep!

Cons:

Hurts! I used this product about four times and three out of four hurt! My actual face hurt, it was sore, but when i rinsed it off, it hurt, when i put on moisturizer it hurt!

i couldnt give this product a fair rating because whenever i use it all i can focus on is the pain! my skin isnt sensitive but its too sensitive for this! i have little bumps on my upper arms and i use this to clean the area just to see what would happen, and it seems to be drying it up a bit, not in a bad way, but i think its way too harsh for my skin! i'm talking about the original orange one, i would reccommend the clear sensitive skin one if u have combination skin (like me!)

Pros:

very affordable

Cons:

CONTAINS MINERAL OIL

clean and clear products contain mineral oil which in effect leave your pores clogged it also contains menthol which gives the feeling "clean" skin although in fact it is doing the opposite while it may work at first because of its high concentration of skin drying ingredients, clean and clear will make you break out eventually because it contains mineral oil which can reak havocs on your skin
