Pros:

None!

Cons:

Smells bad
Hard to wash off face
REALLY dries skin out
Makes your face red

I used this for a week, my face broke out and it dried my skin out so bad! Even if I just touched my skin it would flake. Two weeks later, after lots of moisturizer, my face is finally stopping to flake. This is a horrible product! DO NOT USE THIS! YOU MAY AS WELL USE PURE ACID!!

Pros:

None (for me at least)

Cons:

- Irritated my skin.
- Made my skin feel tight.
- Gave me blackheads on my nose!
- Made my skin dull and rough!

I am very disappointed with this product... it did NOT work for me at all!!!!!! It just made my skin tight, dry and it never dried up my acne... I stuck with it for over a month and it just seemed like it did nothing for my face.. I believe it was because of the salicylic acid. I am probably allergic to that chemical.. OR my face is just not meant for that chemical.

Pros:

cleared a few breakouts

Cons:

Dried out my skin
Caused irritation
Redness
Flaky

It was my first time using it, I heard about it on About from a beauty advicer. She claimed it to be one of the best inexpensive cleansers. However I didn't like it. I didn't notice at first because I was so focused on clearing my breakouts, which it did clear some. However it irritated my skin. My skin is not sensitive but after this product not even moisturizer could calm it down. It felt very itchy and dry. Usually I have oily skin and some moisture to my face, however not after using this product. It made my skin very dull and dry.

Pros:

None.

Cons:

Dryed my skin
Made me breakout
Burnt my skin
It has given me a rash

This product left me with a chemical burn. I do not recommend using it. Especially if you have sensitive skin. I am now left with a swollen, red, flaky and orange peel textured face. It is not nice at all. My skin is not particularly sensitive, and given the bottle said "gentle" i gave it a shot. My skin is naturally oily and i was hoping it would clear up my bad blackheads, but it had the opposite affect. The cost i put is New Zealand dollars.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Within seconds of using this product, my face broke out in a rash. 24 hours later, my entire face is red and swollen. I am 65 years old and have never, ever experienced such an adverse reaction from an OTC product! I'm going back to Cetaphil!

If you have sensitive skin, avoid this extremely irritating product. My dermatologist provided a sample for me to try and now I am miserable.

Cons:

dryness
itchyness
cracking
inflammation
small blister like spots all over lower face and neck

2 uses and my face was a mess - I am assuming this is an allergic reaction to something in this particular product. I have never reacted so poorly to any face soaps and am not allergic to any known foods or products. Other salicylic acid products have not bothered me, so I remain unsure of what particular ingredient caused this. Discontinued use immediately and after 4 days my face has still not recovered.
