Pros:

It works on my super sensitive skin, with all cleansers my face usually goes red and stays red, but with this one it goes red for the first 5 minutes, and then completely calms down! No redness at all!
-It's completely non irritating
-The smell is fine (Just like a regular soap)
-Also kind of helps with acne scars
-The bar lasts a long time

Cons:

-I find soaps harder to apply and I feel like I'm wasting the product when too much lather is produced and It ends up going down the sink. I like liquid face washes for this reason.
-If your skin is not sensitive and you have quite a bit of acne that you want to get rid of, this product probably isn't for you
-Doesn't completely clear skin

The main feature of my acne is my irritated, red cheeks, which also happen to be oily. :/ But with this cleanser, it happens to take away the oiliness without making it irritated! A+! I have two red acne marks on my cheeks which look totally small but can completely take over my cheeks and give them a red glow. But with cleanser, I've seen that the acne marks have been less effective at radiating their usual redness. And I've only been using this for a few weeks! I only got a small sample, (Thank you generous Lush consultant!) And I've been using it for around 2 weeks, it's still the same size! If you do get a bigger bar though, cut it up into small pieces to avoid wasting it and use one small piece at a time.

Pros:

This soap really worked for me, my acne doesn't look red and angry as before, and is keeping my skin behaving for the last six months. It is a great alternative cleanser that wold not over dry my face.

Cons:

It leaves a white residue, that I don't mind because is working for me, but this residue will go away after using a moisturize.

I like this soap a lot. I have been using it for six months now and I just wonder if is going to keep on working, or I'll have to go back to the never ending search for a cleanser that works. Also that inch 1/4 bar I bought last me for 14 weeks, which is not bad for the price. Give it a try, and if you visit a Lush store, and sure they will let you have a little free sample.
