Pros:

builds up a great lather, don't need to scrub hard to remove dirt. Smells like candy!

This is an awesome cleanser. Probably one of the best I'VE ever used. Its extremely gentle (if you lather in hands and smear around face for 10secs or less) and LADIES: THIS REMOVES MAKEUP LIKE A CHARM. It says on the container that its clinically as gentle as water and I totally believe that it is. It makes my skin feeling clean and fresh without dryness if you use it the way i mentioned. Definitely something to try.

Pros:

Rinses off really well without having to use washcloths or other skin irritants.

Cons:

Still leaves skin a little dry.

This is the best cleanser I've found, after searching for years! I have really weird dry/oily facial skin, and have been looking for facial cleansers that rinse off completely without having to rub them off with washcloths, which cause irritation and breakouts.

Pros:

When i first started using this product, it really cleared up my skin, but I am starting to notice I am breaking out some more.

Cons:

I like it other than getting a new zit almost everyday.

Seems to be working okay, I added bp and some moisturizer to my routine, hopefully this helps. I hate the climate I live in, i think that plays a major role for my problem skin.

Pros:

Smells nice
Gets rid of oil and makeup

Cons:

Dried my face out sooo bad
Made my skin itchy and red

I bought this thinking it was the same thing as the cleansing bar. Not even close! It made me break out in this eczema type of rash on the sides of my face and it made me so itchy! I'm probably allergic.

Pros:

Works well for a little while..

Pros:

been using for a few years-very gentle-non drying- removes makeup easily- not greasey- helps reduce oil- break outs have been rare since using this product

Cons:

have to put in another container when traveling- if not it will leak everywhere

ive used other products such as clean&clear, neutrogena, ect- i only had good results with them for a few weeks and then my face would begin to break out again -- purpose is the only product i have used and had good long term results- highly recommend trying this product
