Pros:

leaves face fresh and clean, helps with acne

Cons:

Without a moisturizer it can severely dry up your skin.

I bought it a couple of days ago at wal-mart after my dermatologist told me to try this product. It did dry up my skin but that's why there are moisturizers. Along with my witch hazel toner and aveeno ultra-calming moisturizer my acne went away within a week. I would definitely recommend this product.

Cons:

I was lathering this acne wash in my hands prior to application on my face and a drop splashed into my eye. It burned badly and I rinsed my eye right away many times. I now have a perminent blurry spot in the center of my eye. Be carfull when using!

Absolutly do not get this stuff in your in your eyes. It will cause permanent damage!

Pros:

Smells nice. If I didn't use it I'd be much much worse, but it's not the cure to acne.

Cons:

Like I said, not the cure to acne. Dries the hell out of my face.

It's good to have if you have light to moderate acne, if you start getting bad though, switch to something else.

Pros:

I like it, considering it is a cheapo drugstore product. I usually use high-end brands like clinique and proactiv and this wasn't too far behind (though a little bit behind).
Low Price, Clearer skin, feel cleaner

Cons:

For me, proactiv works better.
Ugly packaging and so-so smell. Not that it matters a lot, but it feels much less luxurious.

If higher-end brands are out of your price range I'd definitely go for this product!

Pros:

I can't even remember what it's like to have acne anymore, and I had moderate breakouts from the time I was 12 until I started using this product at 18.

Cons:

It can be pretty drying. At least it keeps me in the habit of moisturizing!

This is seriously the only product that has worked for me with any kind of consistency. I still get a random pimple maybe once a month, but people are shocked when I tell them I even have to use an acne wash.

Pros:

This Product is absolutely amazing. I am 20 and have had moderate acne since I was 14. I have been to the dermatologist and tried retin-a, benzaclin, tetracyclin, etc. Now I only use the oil free acne wash and it works!!! Totally Amazing

Cons:

None - so simple and effective!

If you are suffering from acne use this product. I unfortunantly was overthinking my acne problem and was probably using too strong of treatments by going to the derm and stuff.

Pros:

Prevents minor breakouts, did not irritate my face

Cons:

Made my skin really dry!

It's a good basic face wash, but I would recomend for people with really oily skin. My skin is slightly oily, so it really dried out bad after a little while. It did good with keeping my pimples away though.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Drys sensitive skin
Too harsh
Didn't work, only made my skin worse

My skin felt softer and was a little clearer in the first couple of weeks.(although so minimal it was hardly noticeable) I never had acne, I was only self concious about a pimple I had gotten during my menstrual cycle. I thought that this might help or atleast work quickly. I would use it all over my face rather than only applying it to the pimple and also allowed the foam to touch my neck (accidentally) and would then wash it off. One morning I woke up late and was about to wash my face when I looked in the mirror and saw enormous red pimlpes over every part of my face. A couple days later I also found that my neck looked red and burned. (Like sun burned only worse) It was horrible. I ended up going to the dermatologist and am still struggling with my skin 9 months later. If you have sensitive or dry skin like mine, steer clear of anything like this over the counter. Word of advice: Apply small amounts in the beginning, don't overdo it.

Pros:

It prevents and cleared up my acne!

Cons:

can make your face a bit dry.

I have be suffering from bad acne ever since I was in high school. It was tough dealing with it, and I felt even worse seeing other kids with clear complexions. But about a week ago I bought this face wash, and my skin cleared up within a couple days! At first it did give me some minor white heads, but I guess that was just my skin reacting to how strong it was. I use it twice a day, in the mourning and before bed. I actually like to wake up and look in the mirror! I highly recommend this product, it will make your life better!
