Pros:

Cleans really well without stripping my skin. Leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth.

Cons:

None - I don't mind the non-foaming characteristic - foaming doesn't mean a product is working, it's just the result of a specific ingredient this doesn't have (sodium lauryl sulfate, I think.)

Excellent cleanser for those with or without acne. I want to point out that Cetaphil is a CLEANSER, and while derms recommend it to those with acne, Cetaphil is not designed to treat acne, and makes no claims that it will help with acne. Dermatologists recommend it because it is a very GENTLE cleanser, with no fragrance or unnecessary ingredients, so it is unlikely to exacerbate acne symptoms that way some other cleansers can. So... for those of you who say "it didn't work for me".... if it cleaned your face, it worked for you. Its purpose is not to make acne go away. It did help with my relatively mild acne, though. It's kept the moisture in my skin balanced, and I can clean several times a day to get rid of oil (I have extremely oily skin) and my skin doesn't end up stripped and dry.

Pros:

Didn't make me break out, skin is softer and brighter

Cons:

doesn't lather

Good product, my face doesnt feel like i scrubbed all of the layers off of my skin after i got out of the shower with it (i dont like the proactiv cleanser), it will last a while, no scent, rinses off easy, and you can use it all over (neck, chest, and back).

Pros:

It cleanses your skin to the point where its really smooth.

Cons:

It dries up a little and a nice lotion might do the final trick.

I started using Cetaphil because my doctor recommended it. I have a lot of spots on my skin due to the Sun and he wanted me to take care of my skin. Since the first time I took it, the product made me skin really smooth, but it dried it up a little. So I waited for my oil glands to produce a little oil and was good as new. I recommend this product to people who want their skin healthy.

Pros:

Some drying out on my chin.

Cons:

Flat, red bumps (very small, unpopable pimples) all over my forehead and moving down the side of my face.

It makes me break out even more than I had originally and it leaves my face feeling and looking greasy. If you have oily skin I would not recommend this product personally because it does put a lot of moisture into the skin causes a access of oil.
