Pros:

Gets rid of pimples and blemishes, easy on skin, won't irritate, won't clog pores, smoother texture

Cons:

None

I bought this after using so many different products. I am talking all kinds of acid washes and stuff. I have oily skin, and its thick. I thought this stuff would not help my skin. I was shocked at how well it has helped in the past 2 weeks. My skin has only two pimples on it. I used to get 4 or 5 weekly. I love this product and won't buy anything else. I went to plastic surgeons to see about getting scars fixed and all agreed that I should get off harsh acids and chemicals before they would work on scars, and all said generally the less harsh a cleanser is the better. 3 of the 4 I went to, mentioned using this. I am not saying this fixed my scars, but it helped my breakouts and pores for sure. Don't waste your time with other crap out there, GO GET THIS!!!!!

Pros:

The best product out there! It clears my skin and keeps it soft. I can use it more than once a day and it doesn't dry out my skin.

Cons:

I wish the bottle was more travel friendly.

I would recommend Purpose to everyone-regardless of their skin type. Those who have taken my recommendation have had nothing but good to say about it and still use it.

Pros:

Nice smell, no residue on your skin, cleans your skin well

Cons:

Dried my skin out

It was alright. For some reason it totally dried my skin out, even with though I also use a moisturizer (and I normally have oily skin, so that was weird to suddenly have dry skin). My skin felt tight and started to peel and flake. I still use this once in awhile though and I'm fine. Otherwise it just wasn't right for my skin I suppose. For travel I just poured it in another container, no big deal since the actual bottle spills easily.

Pros:

i've tried everything and purpose is the best $5 one can spend if battling acne. yes, i still get the 1/2 occasional pimples, but i used to have severe acne, so that's nothing :).

Cons:

your skin can feel a little dry afterwards, but if you use a good moisturizer (like you're suppose to), it's fine.

buy it and try it!

Pros:

Love this product. Not overdrying, but skin feels very clean.

Cons:

Go through fast and I travel, so I wish they would package that you could turn the pump so it doesn't leak.

Overall, love product itself.
