Simply a cleanser

Pros:

Inexpensive
Leaves Skin clean and not dry
Keeps skin clear and balanced

Cons:

no active acne fighting ingredients

This product really allows my skin to calm down and feel clean. It allows my skin to become rebalanced without getting overly dry and definitely not oily. I really enjoy this cleanser because it can be worked into a lather or used as just a gel-like cleanser. Also, it is from the drugstore so it is easily accessible.

Pros:

Cleans well
Smells good
Minimizes pores

Cons:

Slightly drying

I find this is a really good cleanser for me. I have slightly oily skin, huge pores, and a ton of blackheads. I am seeing results and i've only used it once a day for two weeks

Pros:

-Reduces Oil
-Reduces Acne
(-:

Cons:

-Does dry your skin up a bit (to me it did around my chin so it felt itchy so I avoided using the product around that area so it went away :p)

Overall it does make your skin look better and feel fresh. If you have light acne, using it twice a day will be enough (in the morning & before going to bed) .

Pros:

Clears acne fast
Oil free

Cons:

Drys out skin

I usually only break out once a month but two months ago I broke out and it never went away. I've always used neutrogena products so I bought this. It works. I don't think I will use it as my regular product because it is very drying but I will definitely use it for that week or so of my breakouts as it just works so fast for me.

Pros:

-Takes care of heavily affected areas

-Does not leave a shiny or oily appearance

Cons:

-Can dry out, not often for me

-If not used consistently, acne will usually re-appear

I use this acne cleanser 1-2 times a day. It almost fully cleared my toughest acne spots. I also used the spot treatment from Neurtrogena along with this acne wash. I also noticed if you use this acne wash right after a shower, the results may be better.

Pros:

-controls oil
-helps control light acne

Cons:

-stopped working

This was my go to cleanser when I was a teenager. It helped keep my light acne at bay. Now that I'm older(27) and have drier skin with more hormonal acne, this cleanser doesn't do anything for me. I used it for at least 5 years straight along with Nature's Cure topical cream and had only occasional breakouts. I would recommend this cleanser to those with oily skin and light acne.

Pros:

It does what it's supposed to do

Cons:

It can be drying

In reality, if you have dry skin, you shouldn't be using a 2% salicylic acid cleanser. I have used this in the past and it worked. I never had a problem with it drying out my skin. I recommend this for people who have annoying breakouts all over their face, not just little problem areas.

Pros:

Helped my breakout!
Oiliness in my skin lessened
Refreshing

Cons:

Not any that I can think of

This is a very good product, in the time I have been using it, it has helped out with my acne so much. For all of you that are complaining about the smell, GET OVER IT. It's an acne face wash, it doesn't need to smell perfect. You only have to smell it for like 30 seconds so it shouldn't matter. I personally don't even see what's wrong with the smell.

Pros:

Cheap
One step acne fighter
Clears up acne

Cons:

Little harsh

When I used this it worked amazing for the first few days but then I had to stop using it because it caused me to get rashes above my lip and under my eyebrows. It really helps acne though.
