Pros:

Is very gentle, mild, and non-irritating. And, it is fragrance-free.

Cons:

It does not provide a deep down cleaning of the skin. As,it is simply to mild for that. I have had a love/hate relationship with this product for years because I do have combination/oily skin. However, I still do keep it around for useage purposes.

This product is okay. It doesn't provide a deep down clean, which alot of people may find to be bothersome. However, it isn't one that I probably will 100% give up on. As, I do use topical acne products and it is mild to my face. So, it is something that I like to slip into my regimen every now and then (especially when it is cold out).

Pros:

Noncomedogenic
Doesn't cause breakouts
Gentle
Feels good on skin

Cons:

Doesn't take off makeup

It was a very gentle face wash and seems to have all that you want in a face wash, but I did not care for the texture and felt like it did not thoroughly clean my skin and it didn't take off my makeup completely, kinda just smeared it, not good! But on a positive note, and this is important to me, it didn't cause me to breakout.

Pros:

This product always leaves your face feeling soft and clean.

Cons:

does not get rid of acne and or other blemishes to the skin. Does not remove make up and stubborn dirt well or even at all.

I liked the way it made my skin feel, soft, moisturized, and refreshed but it almost made my acne worse so i switched to this stuff called basics its great.

Don't use if you have mild/severe acne

Pros:

Has no odor
Good for oily skin
Cheap

Cons:

Does not foam
Cannot remove make up

This is a very different wash from all of the acne washes that i have used throughout my life lol the was is like a gel, and when you wash your face it does not foam, and it will never foam no matter how much of the gel or water you use. This is good just for a morning face wash every once in a while but not as an acne solution. Don't use this product if you are trying to remove make up because it takes forever since it doesn't foam. Also, this will be somewhat good for people that have oily skin like I do, it dries the skin, but not in a harmful way.

Pros:

- feels good
- light formula

Cons:

- pricey
- does not help clear up though

For a severe acne person, this does not actually help erase the acne but helps the skin feel refreshed and good though.

Pros:

Very gentle
Non-foaming (if you like that)

Cons:

Burned my face
Seemed to strip skin

Even before I went on Accutane, I didn't like this cleanser too much, and now that I'm on it, it burns my face when I use it. It is gentle (a lotion-y consistency) but didn't work for me. When I dried my face off, it seemed almost sticky because it seemed so stripped and bare. It might work for many, but it didn't work very well for me.
