Pros:

-Soothing
-AMAZING scent
-Good moisturizers
-Did the cleaning job
-My face was very soft

Cons:

-Even though soothing, also burn't really bad
-Didn't help my acne
-Redness.. oh so much redness

My opinion, is that this little product burn't like a b. Chamomile irritates my skin personally a lot.. when it's actually suppose to soothe redness? Every product I use with chamomile burns, why do you hate me so much chamomile? I LOVE THE SMELL OF CHAMOMILE. The only reason I didn't throw it away was that it smelt so dang good! ANYWAY I would recommend the scrub because that for some reason wasn't close to as irritating... my skin hates the cream cleanser I guess. I would say try a different line of anti redness/acne stuff.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Dries out face
Doesn't clean face

I was hoping this product would be that this-is-it one, but it wasn't. It did nothing for my face. If anything, my face felt dirtier as time went on because it doesn't cleanse well enough. I would give it a negative 10 if I could.

This product was suppost to calm my face but it instead burned my face. Very harsh, server dryness and just a horrible stinging feeling. Would not recommend to anyone.

Pros:

Smells good

Cons:

Does nothing

This stuff does absolutely nothing. PLEASE just stay away from these silly fruity washes, they will probably never treat you unless you have extremely light acne. I actually believed this would stop a little swelling and resness based off of the product's green color, but boy was I wrong. Made everything worst.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Made my face very very very shiny and oily

I used this product because I wanted to try something that wouldn't dry my skin out like all the products with benzoyl peroxide did. And this did the total opposite. After a week of using this product my face was sooooo shiny and oily but it was also peeling and rough at the same time. I don't know how that's possible but that's what this product did to my face. And did I mention it did absolutly nothing for my acne NOTHING!!! I am so sick of wasting my time and money. I ordered some African black soap and Shea butter hopefully that works, If not, I just give up
