Pros:

the only thing that works for my acne. Great, clean smell, skin feels clean, not dry after use.

Cons:

May be a bit drying, so use moisturizer, but it's a small price to pay for clear skin, finally!

I think everyone's skin is different (duh), so what works for one, won't necessarily work for another. This is what works for me. I am afraid it's being discontinued, however, as I am having more and more trouble finding it in the stores... I truly hope this is not the case... :(((

Pros:

Smells nice.

Doesn't help with acne and completely dried out my skin. My face is red, itchy, and irritated.

Horrible product. Didn't work for me at all.

Pros:

It smelled ok?

Cons:

Left my whole face in a rash

I used this twice, my skin can be pretty sensitive at times but is usually fine with salicylic acid. But woke up with a red bumpy itchy rash which took a week to go away with hydrocortisone. Returned it and got my money back

Still got minor pimples during my period.

My favorite cleanser. A few days after I stopped using it, I got the first pimple since before I started using it.

Pros:

-Cleared up my friend's acne

Cons:

-Awful smell
-Burns
-caused me to have allergic reaction

This product works GREAT for one of my best friends. Her skin is beautiful! However, when I used it, only after the second time, I noticed my face was red, blotchy and ichy. when I woke up the next day, dear lord, my face was beat red, i had broken out in hives AND my skin was swelling! I go to school and i literally skipped it because I looked so awful! By the end of the day my skin was back to normal, but i'm DEFINITELY taking this back.

Pros:

It cleans off all the oil so your skin feels fresh & clean

Cons:

I think it's made me break out with cystic acne.. suddenly I started breaking out on my cheeks which has never happened to me before and never this severely. I used to only get a couple of minor white heads, but now I have a rash of acne!!!

It doesn't work for me. I'm not so sure why this product has such high ratings! Its causing me to break out even worse than ever before! I was just looking for a cleanser that would help me get rid of the smaller random little white heads on my T zone and chin area, and instead I'm breaking out all over my cheeks with these MASSIVE cystic acne bumps!!! I've never ever in my life had this before! I'm going to be scarred on my cheeks now and its basically this product's fault.
