Works well
I have been using this since the summer and I liked it. It has a good smell and the results are good. I use a Clarisonic also so it helps.

Pretty Good:)

Pros:

Keep Skin clear
Great price
Feels amazing

Cons:

Slightly drying

I love this product:) The smell is not the best but not the worst. It didn't completely clear my skin but it definitely reduced problems and kept away new breakouts. You need a moisturizer and the toner works wonder too! I would recommend this product!

Pros:

Nice cucumber-y green tea scent, feels good on, gives face a tingly feeling.

Cons:

Doesn't really help much with acne. Funny thing is, it's called Acne Stress Control.

I had to deal with many stresses this past summer and I was not about to let acne be one of them. What better product to use than Neutrogena's Acne Stress Control products? Along with the foam, I purchased the scrub, cream wash, toner, and 3 in 1 hydrating treatment. But since the review is strictly for the foam, that's what I am going to give you: The product smells really good, kind of gave me that relaxing spa type feel. The packaging is nice, I like how the product is a bluish green color, I thought that was fun...ANYWAY...the foam feels really good on your skin, it's cooling and tingly...but not burn off your face tingly. This product claims to work on acne, but it didn't, at least for me. My skin may be a tad bit clearer, but I did not see a drastic change in the improvement of my skin. I would only reccomend this for the smell and the color so no, if you are looking for something to clear up your acne, I do not recommend this product.

Pros:

It smells really good and has a nice feel. Makes skin feel softer and smoother. Reduces look of inflamed acne or redness

Cons:

It doesn't really work. It reduces acne for about 3 days then doesn't really do anything. It sometimes has a mild stinging feel as well.

This product really doesn't work. It smells nice and goes on smooth so it might be for people who have little to no acne and want to use sometimes or as a morning cleanser. Or someone who wants to reduce the oil on their face. But truly does nothing for you.

Pros:

It smells nice. I got it for free from a friend.

Cons:

the pump broke easily. doesn't do much on my face.

If you have very sensitive skin like me, this thing is very mild and not harmful at all, but don't hope much. It just cleans out your skin and not preventing or curing acne like it says it does. Use a good moisturizer afterwards.

Pros:

Extremely easy to use, reduces redness, effectively cleans, amazing fragrance, gentle, leaves skin moisturizes and does not dry it out like almost every other cleanser out there-THE FULL PACKAGE

Cons:

None

If you're looking for an acne treatment, cleansers aren't the way to go. However, this is the absolute complement to a comprehensive acne treatment. This cleanses your skin thoroughly and does exactly what it's supposed to do. It isn't supposed to be used alone. Personally, I use this morning and night, followed by topical lemon juice applied with a cotton ball. To moisturize and ensure that I don't break out, I use Clean and Clear Dual Action Moisturizer. It contains .5% sal acid, and it is an amazingly effective product-try it. Good luck! Remember-everyone's skin is different, but give this regimen a try it works!

Pros:

The fragrance smells amazing. Definitely refreshing, and it's easy to use and doesn't sting.

Cons:

It doesn't work. I used it throughout the school year and it did nothing for my acne. I just liked the smell xD

It's good for really mild acne, but if you break out a lot or have a lot of acne, it's just pretty useless.

Pros:

smells great. i love the foam. feels good. makes my skin soft. good looking.

Cons:

i don't think it deep cleans, because the foam just doesn't seem to penetrate. didn't help my acne. the foam pump stopped working after a week of use. i think the microclear technology is bogus.

could be for anyone either without acne, or with very light or occasional/hormonal breakouts. it didn't serve the purpose it was supposed to, but i enjoyed myself while washing my face.
