Pros:

//Doesn't cause acne!
//Generic version is relatively inexpensive
//Feels nice when you use it

Cons:

//Didn't do a thing to improve my skin!
//Pretty drying (this isn't a problem if I use moisturizer, though)

I've been using this product twice a day for about 4 months and, although it helped initially, my skin never actually improved. It would clear up for brief periods then get just as bad as it ever was. It didn't clear up my blackheads or other bumps and didn't seem to prevent any breakouts. Of course everybody has different chemistry and different needs so I cannot condemn this product. I am however very disapointed.

Pros:

tightens skin, cleanses skin

Cons:

dry, red skin :(

I think this wash works to cleanse the skin, but it definitely dries the skin out. My skin is now kind of flaky and red. I have to use a lot of moisterizer several times a day.

Pros:

Smells nice, and doesn't burn like other cleansers.

Cons:

Looks like soap!

This stuff is expensive, but I liked it. Don't keep it near an orange soap dispenser because they look identical. (So someone could fill it up with hand soap and then you have to buy a new one!)

Pros:

Smells okay, lathers nicely, made my skin feel soft and clean every time, affordable, and I liked the pump.

Cons:

My skin felt tight afterwards (I like that feeling but I want a cleanser that is going to clean my skin, not dry it out), I didn't see much of an improvement, even though I used this product for a few months.

Try it out, it may or may not work for you. This product made my skin FEEL clean, but I didn't SEE the change I was hoping for. It did absolutely nothing to get rid of my white heads, but it seemed to help with pustules. I did continue to get acne during the time that I used this product. I do recommend this cleanser because of all the pros that I listed above. After cleansing, I applied moisturizer and my skin felt fine - it was never overly dry.

Pros:

It works... It get rids of tiny zits but then you get HUGE pimples on your nose and cheeks. It gets rid of oil.

Cons:

You get the huge zits on your nose and cheeks, and even if you have oily skin it's very, very drying.

Don't buy this, it's wayy to drying even with a mostuirizer.

Pros:

it works but it dries your skin.a way to get rid of the dryness is to buy a moisturizer with a ahlpha hydroxy acid in it

Cons:

Pros:

This product works incredibly fast. Even after one day I noticed a difference. It's also affordable.

Cons:

It kind of irritates your skin the first few times you use it, but is otherwise a good product.

Well worth buying, one of the best products you can afford.

Pros:

gentle
smells good

Cons:

dries skin
doesn't clear acne like you want it to

This product is best used in conjunction with other forms of treatment, like lotions, pills, etc.... This will NOT clear up your acne by itself, but it's a nice cleanser that has a great natural exfoliant, Salicylic Acid, but is still gentle on skin. It is a little drying, so be sure to treat that accordingly.
