None that I can think of,

Its great,easy to use...it takes an idiot to not know how to use it. It clears up your skin without drying it out,and it evens your skin tone. And its very affordable.

Pros:

It made my skin feel very soft. It's affordable.

Cons:

I didn't like the lotion-y texture. I started noticing even more clogged pores after using it.

May be good for dry skin, but too creamy for oily skin.

Pros:

Cleanser is extremely gentle, but still cleanses the skin. I gently massage it into my skin for 20 to 30 seconds to remove makeup and oil... and my skin is not irritated.

Cons:

You do not get a lather, nor do you feel squeaky clean, therefore it may lead some to believe it is not working.

Great cleanser. Inexpensive and easily accessible at nearly any drug store. Removes dirt, oil, and makeup, without irritating your skin. I would recommend this to people who have extremely sensitive skin, such as dry skin with acne and/or rosacea.

Pros:

It is non-irriatating, mild, and fragrance-free.

Cons:

It is like using pure lotion to wash your face with. It just never made me feel like my face was getting truly clean with this stuff. So, that was a major turnoff.

This product has no cleansing agents in it all that I have noticed. It is something that is mild, however it seems to be too mild for it to really do anything beneficial towards one skin. Overall, I do not recommend this product as it simply is the equivalent of using lotion on your face to cleanse it with.

Pros:

it is really good for day to combination skin
good at healing acne

Cons:

kinda expensive to teenagers

i am suffering from serious breakouts for a month, and everyday after i go to school, my whole forehead is like itchy and full of red acne, but i just use it for two days, and is swear i see a difference , my redness are gone and the acne is less itchy. Actually i try this product before, but after i used it up, i think it is too expensive so i didn't use it again, but somehow it is the best cleanser i have used

Pros:

Nice texture

Cons:

My skin stung while using it, and made my skin break out waaay more than usual. (Read bottom line to see why).

I used SpectroGel before I used this product, and Spectro was also extra gentle on my skin. The Spectro worked great, but I decided to give this a try. However the Spectro was so gentle that my skin got accustomed to it, so when I used this porduct, although it is supposed to be gentle, it stung my skin quite a bit (every time I used it; even a month later). And it made me break out, a lot. Before I used this, I used to get around 3-5 pimples a week, now I am having a lot, lot more. But again, it all depends on your skin type so give it a try.

Pros:

Cleans really well despite not lathering, doesn't sting eyes even with direct contact, removes makeup better than about 20 other cleansers I have used, reduces redness immediately

Cons:

This product has really helped me out I have no complaints.

I urge anyone dealing with moderate acne to try this! In a week my skin went from oily and dry spots with lots of pimples to really even and balanced, and is more clear than it has ever been. I think less must be more when it comes to facial cleansers. I am never switching to any other cleanser.
