Pros:

None really.

Cons:

-Did not clear acne.
-Made face greasy.
-Over priced.
-Does not leave skin feeling good.

I had high hopes for this product and boy did it disappoint me. It made my acne ten times worse, it made me skin greasy even after washing all of it off. It's probably the worst product I've ever used.

Pros:

NONE! DON'T USE THIS WHATEVER YOU DO!

Cons:

-Made my acne WORSE!
-It's not a cleanser, it's a gross lotion!
-It's main ingredient is water. Honestly water would do a better job.
-Way to freaking expensive for acne-aggravating water in a tub.

This is TERRIBLE! My previously "light" acne which took me WEEKS to achieve, instantly disappeared after two days of using this! I swear I was like one week away from totally clear skin. Then this product (in TWO NIGHTS) made my face "moderately severe". Which is the WORST my skin has ever looked! I am devastated. This product RUINED my skin and it's going to take weeks to recover! I don't know how this happened but I KNOW it was because of Cetaphil. Please, find something else to use because this WILL. NOT. WORK!

Pros:

Easily available in the US

Cons:

Irritating

I have used this for about three months and every time I used it, my skin would become so irritated. It was gradual until I couldn't take it anymore. Ironically, this stuff made my skin drier and mind you I have oily skin. I have tried the oily version and it is no better. I would recommend this if you have more resistant skin and using a topical medication to prevent irritation. Mind you I was using this and a BP with a percentage at 2.5%, so I have sensitive skin.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Doesn't clear up acne or improve complexion, it doesn't lather, it doesn't make my face feel very clean afterwards

This is probably a good cleanser for people with absolutely no acne. However, if you do have acne, it will not work for you. It's just like washing your face with water.

Pros:

-NONE!

Cons:

-drys out the skin
-caused skin to feel so tight
-wrinkles appeard due to dryness
-caused horrible breakout
-makes my skin feel so itchy

This may be a great product for some, but for me this was one of the WORST products I have used for my face! In combination with the lotion the two have caused so much damage that no other product has caused on my face! I started using the product after reccomendation from my derma, and the first couple of days liked the product - apart from the dryness there was no obvious problems. The more I used the product over the week the worse my problems got - my skin started to feel tighter and so dry and a few wrinkles started to appear. After a week of application I woke up to a PURPLE face and a face full of whiteheads!!!! After through investigation I realised it was the cetaphil products and I must have had some sort of severe reaction to them! A week now since I have stopped using it and my face is not the same - its so sensitive! I feel so itchy - must have been an allergic reaction to something their products contain! Never again - I really dont reccomend this product at all - yuck!
