Pros:

Worked for the first week
Helped balance out my oily skin
Felt nice on skin

Cons:

Stopped working after the first week
Made my light acne into moderately severe
Still recovering from the reaction to it
Smells a little odd but you get use to it
Even though it dried up my face it also made my hands way too dry and cracky that I had to use lotion which I never had to do before.

The first week I used it, I thought it was great since it dried out my skin to the point where I wouldn't have to worry about having an oily looking face but after that it went downhill and made me breakout horribly. I wouldn't recommend this product since it made me break out so much that people were asking me what happened to my face. I gave it another chance a month or so later and had the same reaction.

Pros:

Refreshed feeling
Smell

Cons:

Drying out your face, tightness, It doesn't get rid of most of your pimples.

Depending on how your skin is. . I have a lot of black heads and my pimples get big and they hurt. . I wouldn't recommend It, because It dries out your face and It leaves this tightness feel.

Pros:

Wallet friendly,
Available in most drugstores

Cons:

Leaves a lot of red bumps on the cheeks.
Causes skin to be severely dry & in my case itching :(

My skin is uber oily & very prone to acne so I thought I'd give this product a try. I've only started using this recently (for 6 days to be exact) & it just leaves my skin to worsen. My face has started to itch since yesterday so definitely not recommended to those with super oily skin!

Pros:

Decent Ingredients (other than Salicylic Acid)

Cons:

Too Messy
Irritated Skin, leading to more breakouts
Doesn't prevent new acne from developing

You have to experiment. I realized that Salicylic Acid doesn't help my face, so the cleanser was of little benefit.

Pros:

-Gentle
-Cleanses

Cons:

-Doesent really help with acne, just keeps it in control

I bought this product not too long ago, Once I ran out I wasnt interested in buying it again. Its a good product if you just want a cleanser.

Pros:

it got rid of sum acne and and got rid of certain scatters of acne

Cons:

but overall after reading sum of the reviews posted heare and looking at my face it did leave a bumpy look under skin it dryed out my skin so that the oil is all you could see and made my pimples super red and a rashy look around them. I cant tell if the blackheads are poping up from the product but i got more since using i makes my face feel onfire if use it day after day like instruction says.

The bottom line is tthe product works but at a cost wich means redness i mean i bary touched my face it turns red the product was sh*t dont recomend it also made pimples poped have a more pussey white withch cause mountain pimples really suks like half other sh*t on hear

Pros:

-pump measures how much to use (one pump)

Cons:

-irritates skin
-dries skin

My acne was getting better using this product, but it became worse after week one or two. It has that tingling feeling after you use it. however, that feeling is a sign of skin overdrying... you can fix this by using a moisturizer, but it does not get rid of the irritation of the skin (pins and needles)

Pros:

-Good for oily skin
-Leaves skin feeling clean
-My skin has cleared up dramatically

Cons:

-Can be a little drying

Combined with my prescription treatment, this product has been a key factor in clearing my skin. I used so many other cleansers with Differin but this pairing is really working for me. Every so often a pimple will pop up (around "that" time of the month )but I've noticed the size of them gone down dramatically.

Pros:

Smells Great,Easy to use,Find it anywhere,an left me less oily on my skin.

Cons:

Irritation and leaves skin too dry

This product made my skin irritate alot! and overdryness on skin. Does not clear up acne. After using over 3 weeks it made my skin breakout more. I intend to finish the bottle and move to Benzoil Peroxide. That's a for sure. I do not recommend this product at all.
