Pros:

None

Cons:

- Smells
- Dries out skin
- Makes acne worse

Do not buy it. It is the worst acne wash I have ever used. After using this wash for 5 days, my skin was so dry that it looked like i had a white beard. I even used moisturizer after washing my face. After a week of not using it my skin is finally back to normal.

Pros:

Cleans face and does a DECENT job at clearing acne.

Cons:

Product is way to rough. Left skin tight and flaky for the first week and didn't really help prevent acne.

Isn't that great of a product. At least for me.

Pros:

Keeps mild and moderate acne under control. Affordable. Not over drying. Easy to find at drug stores.

Cons:

Can be somewhat drying if you rub it in for too long. Makes skin oilier during the day. Not the best long-term solution...

I have used this face wash for years. Every time I try something new, I regret it and come right back to this wash. I have mild-moderate acne - some black heads, flare ups of pustules and papules - and this wash totally zaps them away. My skin responds best to Salicylic acid, so this wash is perfect. If you have acne, I think this is one of the better OTC products.

Pros:

takes care of oil, cleans skin nicely, helps with small breakouts

Cons:

it's smell is not so great, it might dry out your skin too much

Well I actually bought the Walgreen's brand but it has the exact same ingredients. Anyway I think I will continue to use this because my skin is oily and over the few days that I have used it reduced the size of my pimples, I use it twice a day with Burt's Bees Garden Tomato Toner and I think it works great and I will continue to use it.

Pros:

Noticeably reduces acne, helps fade old spots

Cons:

Very drying, made my skin feel rough

This product definitely took care of my acne - I used to always have 1 or 2 zits on my face but now I have none. It is very drying, but nothing a good moisturizer can't take care of. The only real negative thing about it is that it made the skin on my cheeks feel a bit rough. I don't know what that's about but it's probably because I have sensitive skin. Overall I think it's a good product.

Pros:

Makes my skin feel clean, smells good & refreshing, doesn't dry out skin at all (as outlined in many other reviews).

Cons:

None, except the bottle packaging makes it difficult to take with me when travelling - it squirts everywhere!

I wash my face every morning and night with this cleanser and it really helped tame my mild acne break outs. I use the same brand moisturiser for Sensitive Skin after washing in the morning, but not at night and it doesn't seem to dry out my skin at all. I am happy with this product so far.
