Pros:

smooth feel, pleasant smell, work if you use it in small amounts, and a moisturiser with it.

Cons:

Packaging to be improved, a nozzle would have been better, directions on use to be more helpful.....such as using a moisturiser as well...

Pros:

Cleans oils
Leaves face feeling fresh
Helped dry out some of my acne

Cons:

Doesn't clear all the acne
I still continued to get pimples while using the product.

I've been using it for about 3wks so far, and it seems to have dried out some of the acne but not all. I like how it leaves my skin feeling fresh. I use it about 2-3 times a day. Every morning in the shower, and at night before going to bed. Sometimes mid day. I haven't tried to many skin care products becasue i'm scared of the aftermath once i stop using the product. i haven't stopped using this and i'm going to continue it for another 2 months, i'm going to give it a chance. i read more bad reviews on Proactive so i'm sticking to Neutrogena.

Pros:

Comes in a colorful tube

Cons:

Made my face red

I was using murad, and when the cleanser ran out I bought this. I don't like the smell first of all. Look, I want a face wash, not a perfume. It made my face redder than when I used murad's cleanser.

this product works pretty well
I honestly think this is a good product but if you do sports make sure that you clean your face because i play field hockey and the googles we have to wear are just ruining our skin by the second. this isn't something that quickly works but it does clear them and make them alot smaller then they were!!

Pros:

-

Cons:

Dry, dry, dry!

I have tried everything for my acne and luckily last year had some luck with Accutane. Recently, I had been getting small flare ups and decided to try the Neutrogrena wash. Used it for two days. Seemed to slightly clear up my skin, but left my face and lips extremely dry and scaley. It also caused the appearance of tiny tiny whiteheads all over the place. Back to square one I guess.
