Pros:

leaves skin feeling clean and soft
cleared up acne within 2 months
works well with oily skin
love the texture of the cream cleanser
smell isnt to bad

Cons:

didnt help prevent new acne from forming as well as i'd like

i think this product works well but would be best for people with light to moderate acne versus people like me who have moderately severe-severe acne.

Pros:

i used it for about 2 weeks and sough quite a difference, i stopped using it for about 2 and a half weeks after those 2 weeks and i began to break out crazy, so it basically proved that this stuff works by just comparing it when u used it and stoped.

Cons:

it dryed up my skin quite a bit but that doesn't really bother me really..

good stuff, if i kept using it a bit longer then i did i would probably have less acne.

Pros:

I love the burst of lightness my face feels after using the product. I love the citrus smell and how energized my face feels.

Cons:

It doesn't get rid of acne, but it maintains a beautiful glow on your face and an even complextion.

I like the product and would recommend using it if you don't have severe acne conditions. It's an easy one step process and it's easy to travel with.

Pros:

This cleanser is not the best on the Neutrogena line but it DOES in fact help clear the skin of all dirt-filled pores. It cleanses each pore and washes out the dirt leaving clear, soft skin.

Cons:

This product MUST be used twice a day (only if your skin is not sensitive). It does not prevent pimples, although it cleanses them well if you apply it to them when they are opened. Dryness does in fact occur.

Although dryness is sometimes a result, clear skin is right behind. Dryness of skin after applying to the face only results because of certain skin types. So many people complain about products. Why not be grateful for so many to choose from? It ALL depends on YOUR TYPE OF SKIN. If it is sensitive, go to your doctor. If it's carefree, experiment with it. Once you find the perfect product, stick with it and it'll stick with you. Neutrogena products are popular because scientifically and because of surveying it seems to help with the majority of people's skin types. Although some it might harm, overall it's effectiveness is positive.

Ive had mild to moderate acne for about 3 years now and no soap has worked this well before. Ive been using it for about 2 weeks now and I already have seen a huge difference in the way my face feels and looks. My breakouts are occuring less and does a great job of ridding existing blemishes. Try not to rub in for to long as it will make your face pretty dry, but I would recommend this product to anyone.

Pros:

clears up redness, cleans the face well, smells nice, removes oil

Cons:

drys up skin pretty badly

i used to use clean&clear, but i started breaking out again so i switched over to this. it really did help reduce redness and my existing pimples. i still use my clean&clear dual action moisturizer, since the cream wash seems to dry up my face.
