Pros:

- Very Gentle
- Effectively removes oil, dirt & makeup.

Cons:

- Makes me breakout around my mouth.
- Poor packaging.

All in all, this is a good cleanser. It isn't irritating at all and does a very good job of cleaning your face. It also isn't too over-drying, which is always a plus. Unfortunately for me, it made me breakout around my mouth, I'm sure it has something to do with this cleanser because I NEVER broke out around my mouth until a few days into using this. I switched back to my old cleanser, and sure enough, no breakouts around my mouth anymore. I then tried using this stuff again a few weeks later to give it another shot because I really do like the way it feels and the job it does...but I broke out around my mouth again. But I do recommend it, permitting your skin can handle it.

Pros:

works really well at cleaning your skin, it takes off all makeup, its very gentle, oil free & non-comedogenic.

Cons:

for $7 bucks, the bottle should be bigger!

I hate using the same products over and over again. Sometimes I switch to different cleansers hoping I'll find something better than what I currently use, but I always keep coming back to this. It's the only cleanser that does the job at cleaning my face thoroughly without irritating or drying it out. I also find that when I use it, I break out a lot less than when I use other cleansers. This is my holy grail cleanser, love love love it!

Pros:

doesn't irritate sensitive skin,cleans well doesnt drying out skin, $$$.

Cons:

THE BOTTLE I cant stand the bottle you cant take it in the shower if water gets in it its ruined. Change the freakin bottle haha.

I was on proactive for about 2 years it made my skin feel perfect i didnt really have that bad skin to begin with just some break outs that i wanted to control. Proactive worked.Clear beautiful skin. Then one day it just stopped working and not only that but made my skin so flaky and dry but also Break outs even got cysts Eh it sucked I couldnt figure out why this was happening!My skin was WAY WORSE then ever!i read on message boards its common for proactive to do that.i went on to try so many products like muradEven the sensitive skin line hurt my face.my skin was oily and dry at the same time.I didnt know what to do I was tired of spending money on things that didnt work So i FINALLY tried purpose IT WORKED i couldnt believe it! My skin is softer I have to use a moisturizer cus even the gentle as water isnt gentle enough for me! Get a good moisturiser and i also use persa-gel on spots. My skin is way better! Clear 75% of the time A huge improvement! TRY IT! its only 6 dollars!

Pros:

Smells nice, easy to lather up on a wash cloth, soap-free, and it really makes my face soft and acne-free.

Cons:

Sometimes too mild and it should be put in a squeeze bottle instead of the current packaging.

Really great! If you want a nice, soft face, definitely buy Purpose!

Pros:

Fantastic cleanser! This is the best cleanser I have ever used. Affordable, nice consistency, pleasant smell, foams nicely, removes makeup, doesn't dry skin or irritate acne.

Cons:

None.

I have tried many cleansers, both gentle and not so gentle, including Cetaphil (hated the scent/consistency and it still dried my face out and actually seemed to slightly worsen acne), Clinique (too drying/stripping), Aveeno (too drying/irritating), Neutrogena (too drying) and Proactiv (which didn't dry me out but seemed to irritate inflamed skin). I recently switched to Purpose and my skin is very happy! This cleanser is the best one I have ever used. It cleans well but doesn't dry my skin out. I will probably use this stuff for the rest of my life. I wish I had tried it sooner. Very good to use while on topical acne medications (like I am). Highly recommendeded.

Pros:

this is such a wonderful cleanser and does not over dry if you use the moisturizer and really removes make-up

Cons:

It is hard to travel with if you do not buy the bar instead of the pump for travel

I would recommend this product to anyone! There are 4 ladies in our family and we love this product and will never change. So, long Estee lauder and clinique
