Not for sensitive skin
I haven't used this product long but in the time that I have it has only made my acne worse! It has also caused my skin to become more irritated. I wouldn't recommend this product for anybody with sensitive skin.

Not for me.
I used this for around a month as one of most recent treatments... not for me. Made my skin very dry and irritated. I didn't notice a difference in my acne in general*, but it might work for you! *It did help scab over popped blemishes, but that was about it.

Awesome!
I love this product! It really helps heal the blemishes and my pimples. I had been using many different products but none of them really worked for me. I could see the difference in my skin after using it just for a few days. It does dried out my face but it helped dried out and kill all the pimples. I only used it on my cheeks where I had many pimples and black scars. My skin looks a lot clearer now. I don't know what my skin type is but in my life I had never found any product that would help heal my dirty face. Then I found this! I would love to encourage everyone to at least try it because I know how people felt when dealing with an awful face. I had really low self-esteem but now I'm happy everyday for my face. My last suggestion is that when using it try to avoid your lips too because it can dry them out. And after using it you can use a moisturizer for your drying skin and you will be all good. I use jergens by the way. Thank you and I wish you all good luck!

Reduces redness overnight.
This product does well to minimize the redness, swelling, and the sore pimples that have just begun to form. Washing with this at night, I'd notice a measurable difference in all of the above. Does NOT do so well to remove excess oil/makeup. Also, I feel like this new scent is geared towards men? It has that cologne aroma I'd usually associate with men's personal care products.

I finally found it!

Pros:

Deep cleaning
Works Fast
Doesn't overdry

Cons:

Kinda smells like cauliflower lol

All throughout puberty I had AWFUL acne. I tried a bunch of different products and all of them were either to harsh on my skin or wouldn't clean it up enough. When I found this product, I almost didn't try it because it looked like a boy face wash (dumb I know) but I was desperate so I tried everything. And this was the one! Using it morning and night, it cleared up my skin in like TWO WEEKS and now I never break out! On my period I will have like 1 or 2 zits but that's it! It's an amazing product!

Good but....

Pros:

Nice smell
Easy application

Cons:

Too harsh on dry skin

This was good. I used this along with their facial pads. I don't know if it was because of that combo, or my dry prone skin, but my face just gets sooo dry.

Great face wash!

Pros:

Gets rid of acne-causing bacteria
Not oily or greasy

Cons:

Can bleach clothing (watch out)
Can be a bit difficult to completely wash off face

This wash is very good at getting rid of acne-causing bacteria. I've been using the 10% solution for about a year now. If you're looking for a scrub, this isn't what you need. Oxy also make a daily exfoliating scrub that can be used in conjunction with this wash. P.S. It's actually a good hair bleacher as well, I have blonde bangs now.
