Pros:

Cleans well
Removes oils and dirt
Doesn't smell terrible
Foams very well
Easy and quick to use
Feels comfortable on skin
Soft

Cons:

Has been very drying for me, I've needed to use lots of lotion, and I know it's from this not the bp because I have been using bp for years and then when I got this cleanser my face instantly was WAY more dry even after one use. But it is becoming less dry now after a few weeks of use... Maybe I just needed to get use to it.

Great cleanser. I'd recommend it to anyone, even without acne because it feels good, it's soft, and cleans very well and leaves you feeling fresh. Just make sure you have a good face lotion to use after if you get dry like me. Overall, the pros well outweigh the dryness. Thank goodness for moisturizers!

-Works to clear acne
-cleanses well
-feels nice
-easy to put on and wash off
-oil free

Cons:

-harsh for my skin

I used this product for a long time but at the beginning it was really harsh on my skin and it would turn red after and my face is still red but it cleared up my acne in no time! At first you might just want to apply once a day then two.

It leaves your skin feeling really soft and smooth

Cons:

when youve used it about 5mins after your skin feels really dry and tight

i used to use this product in a morning and sometimes on a night and it left my skin feeling really smooth even my spots but i didnt feel like it did anything to them and the marks from spots just stayed the same but i would reccomend this if you want smooth skin !

Pros:

Clean your pores
Kills baceria
clean feeling
washes well

Cons:

tingling, tight feeling
sometimes dries up your skin

I use it in the shower so I just buy some moisturizer after I get of the shower. It cleans up your skin, therefore clearing up acne because it clears up your pores! I usually get a few zits a month, though since I've used this, only one zit and I cleared it by washing it with the acne wash. It was gone the next day! Certainly helps out with my acne.

Pros:

It smells good, like most facial cleansers. It immediately gets rid of oil, and you can literally feel it killing bacteria (the anti-bacterial type) as in it really stings (see below). It's affordable and easy to find.

Cons:

I don't usually have very sensitive skin, but the first time I used this, I was shocked at how much my face stung! Hot water makes it worse. It also dries out my skin really badly. You cannot use this while using other products; it is so strong.

I would suggest it to people with really bad acne and have no where else to turn. Others who wouldn't mind feeling pain, having irritated skin, having really dry, peeling skin, or breaking out in order to eventually reach clearer skin may want to try this product as well. I suppose you could try using smaller amounts of the product, and diluting it with water to make it work for your skin. Otherwise, try something with a higher strength than salicylic acid and a lower strength than triclosan (.25%) which is what is in the product.

Pros:

i was on antibiotics but couldn't afford to continue them so i decided to try an anti-bacterial face wash and this works great--face feels very clean, really great for my oily/combination skin, plus it's cheap

Cons:

if you don't have oily skin it might dry your face out. also if you use a moisturizer with salicylic acid your skin could get really irritated at first from all the different products (i've been using so many for so long that my skin's tough now)

cheap, works better than salicylic acid (which has NEVER worked for me) on moderate to severe acne, which is usually caused due to bacteria and not stress or simply clogged pores. stings for a bit and might dry your skin out at first (so invest in a good exfoliater) but is effective if you're panicking and have nowhere else to turn!

Pros:

this stuff smells really good (oranges) and feels good on your skin.. It get rids of oil well.

Cons:

I have combination skin so some parts of my face got a little dry.

Very good against oil, but you should get a separate product to target acne and moisturizer.
