Pros:

Very Gentle

Cons:

Too Gentle - does not remove makeup well

I have very sensitive skin, which this product is good for, but if I wanted to remove make-up from my face, this cleanser does not get rid of the make-up.

Skin Revived After Overexfoliation

A few weeks ago I used the acne.org Glycolic Acid for 4 consecutive days...oops! My skin started peeling/flaking, it was dry and I all the moisture was sucked out of my skin. #lessonlearned. I stopped using all my acne.org products and used this Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser for 2 weeks. My skin is back to being soft and supple but I still need to treat my acne. I am still using this cleanser but I am slowly adding back my acne.org Benzoyl Peroxide. It's been 3 days and so far it working just fine. I am going to use this cleanser until I run out and then go back to the acne.org cleanser since it is tailored for the regimen.

Cleanses but does not clear

I've owned and used this cleanser for over 6 months now. I have combination skin, with acne and blackheads. 

While it does cleanse my skin without leaving it irritated or tight, I have not seen any change in my acne while using it - although my acne is probably hormonal. [redacted]

Ordinary product
It does its job - cleansed the skin. It doesn't strip the skin of the moisture, so doesn't get rid of the oiliness, but hey, it is supposed to be for all skin types. I used this when I had really bad acne and my skin was so raw and sensitive. After the phase, I used it as a body wash and hand soap.

Pros:

Smells great!
Foams up well.
Gentle.
Combats acne well.

Cons:

Leaves skin feeling a little tight.
Liquid-y.

I have had moderately severe acne for a while. Though mine isn't in quantity, I do get 2-3 cysts at a time that cluster together. It hurts. On top of that, I have uber sensitive skin that breaks out into bouts of eczema if I use the wrong products on my skin. I was told by a friend that Cetaphil is gentle, and works well to combat acne. For the first 3 months, my acne got worse. But I knew to try something for about 6 months before giving up, so I kept going... And before you knew it, my acne cleared up! It was fantastic. I would have to recommend that you stick with it when it's getting tough. It will work eventually.

Pros:

gentle, fragrance free, doesn't dry your skin out. Leaves your skin feeler smoother and like you cleansed it with purifyig water or somethig.. i mean the feeling of using a facial cleanser non-existent (the tightness) :)

Cons:

the first day i used it (kinda tye only time, my skin was free of make up. It didnt feel like a very good clean though.. Cuz i used water on my face first. unexpectedly watery.. is mine overdue?

VERRY suitable for sensitive (allergic reaction) skin and acne prone skin. Also good for people who do not feel brave enought o use cleanser due to all the chemicals included. Cetaphil is cheap n feels natural. haha feels like im doing a commercial lol i bought the 500ml pump pack cetaphil gentle skin cleanser for $10 at chemist warehouse btw <3
