Pros:

-smells nice
-leaves skin feeling clean
-gets rid of small black heads

Cons:

-makes skin red
-doesn't work on big break outs
-takes a long time to work(me: 4 weeks)

This is a good product over all but me I have really oily skin and this solved that problem for me. I also have a lot of acne so maybe thats why it didn't work. Hope this works out for you.:)

Pros:

Gives my face a very clean feeling
Does not irritate my skin
Got rid of annoying zits pretty fast
Doesn't make my skin breakout

Cons:

Doesn't seem to be doing anything to my small bumps ( small acne )
Doesn't do anything to reduce redness and marks

I have only been using this product for 2 weeks every morning and night, following its instructions. And sometimes, I wash my face with it after I finish exercises. Before I started this, I was using cinnamon and honey mask and it made my skin breakout worse and there were HUGE, sharp zits all over my cheeks. Then I started using this wash and stopped every other thing. Then after two weeks now, I can say I am very happy that those big zits are gone. There are small bumps still left in one or two. When I touch my cheeks they are smooth unlike before. So the big pimples are almost gone now. :) I have small acne all over my chin and forehead. The face wash doesn't seem to be working on them. They are still there. Well.. maybe I need to use it more. Its only been 2 weeks anyway. And my acne marks and scars are still there so with a distance, no one can tell that there are not big zits there ! :( So as a whole, until now I am happy with results. I'll write another review after 1 or 2 months to let you know how its going. :) PS : I don't use moisturizer. My face doesn't get too dry from this. My skin is oily. So maybe to some people it might dry too much but for me, this works well.

Pros:

Leaves a clean feeling
Smells fine
Cleared up most of my cystic acne and blackheads
Skin feels soft and smooth after 1 use
Does not burn

Cons:

Makes skin red for a short while
A tad bit dry
Itches a little bit

I would recommend this to anyone with combination and oily skin. It does make your skin look red and can be drying. When I first started using this product it swept away my oil from my face and gave me a good glow (after redness settled down). Here's how I use it: 1. Put hot water on your face to open up pores. 2. Pump one pump Into your had(your hands should be wet) 3.exfoliate gentley for 10-15 seconds then wash off acne treatment 4. Important step! Let air dry then put on anyother treatment you use. Make sure you moisterize!

Pros:

-CHEAP (esp. with $2 coupon on website)
-cleans face well without overdrying
-good for my sensitive skin on accutane

Cons:

-may overdry dry skin

If you're on the market for a foaming cleanser, this is about the best you can do. Johnson and Johnson uses the same ingredients in many of their cleansers and this one is the same as Purpose (as far as I can tell) but much cheaper. I think my 8oz bottle rang in at around $1.75 at WalMart with coupon. Although Cetaphil Gentle Skin cleanser stings my face on accutane, this one does not, so make what you want out of that. If you have oily skin, then the foaming cleansers are definitely for you. Don't mess around with "gentle" cleansers because they will not remove everything they should. Highly recommend, especially to those on a budget.

Pros:

Cleans well
Okay smell

Cons:

Very drying
Burns

I've used just plain Dove soap all my life but switched to this to see if it made a difference. It is very drying and really burns for about 20 minutes after you use it. Not worth it's benefits if there are any. I'll just stick with my Dove Beauty Bar.

Pros:

cleared my skin a little

Cons:

Dried skin out
Smells awful
Didn't clear my skin completely
Made face shiny, but not oily

This cleanser cleared my skin up a little bit but it was never enough for me, I have combination skin and this product just dried me out. I feel like this is more a face wash for people in their twenties who no longer have acne and just need something to keep their face clean. I won't be repurchasing.

Pros:

-Smells good :)
-Works Fast :)
-Inexpensive :)
-Works Great :)
-Feels Clean :)

Cons:

None so far, for me :)

The Clean & Clear Foaming Facial Cleanser really works! It is not to expensive and smells fantastic! Many other products promise to work fast, but they don't! This product works fast and makes your skin feel clean, not only that but it is fighting your acne at the same time! Also, you don't have to use the product a lot. You can use it just once a day! So thank you Clean & Clear, for keeping my skin clean and clear! :)
