Pros:

It smells good.....

Cons:

It dried the hell out of my skin. It burned a lot and after I put moisturizer on it (I use Cetaphil) it burned even more. Also, red blotches appeared on my face after the second day I used it.

DO NOT GET THIS. IT'S A WASTE OF YOUR MONEY!!!

Pros:

SLOUGHS OFF DEAD SKIN!! Gives you a fresh, clean face.

Cons:

Dries out your face a little. I personally found that when I used the new Grapefruit scented wash that I broke out REALLY badly. I may have just had an allergy to the grapefruit extract. I went back to the original and my face is clearing up.

I personally love the fragrance of the original. It gets all that dull, dry, flakey skin right off. You definitely have to use a good moisturizer. Since I am using Benzaclin at night I use Cetaphil cream at night and then in the morning I use Cetaphil regular face lotion. I absolutely love this product. I tried to use Purpose Face Wash, but it really didn't give me a clean feeling. It would have been gentler, but I'm OK with using extra moisturizer in order to continue to use the Oil Free Acne Wash. LOVE IT!!!

Pros:

Helps clear skin and keep it clean - not a magic bullet, but for shelf items, this seems to be the best for me

Cons:

It CAN be drying. I have normal to dry-prone skin, and if you use this in conjunction with other acne medications, you may experience dryness. (Aloe vera gel is a great moisturizer straight)

I've used this product before with great results (when I had normal skin - occasionally getting some blemishes). It nipped those blemishes. For some reason, still unknown to me, my skin flared up and I didn't use this product until now. My skin is slowly turning around. So, for me, this product is definitely worth it! Just fair warning and be SMART with moisturizing delicate areas of the face (around your eyes and mouth).

Pros:

None for me.

Cons:

I don't really like the smell. It leaves your face feeling really tight after you wash it. It dries your skin out even if you do use moisturizer after!

This product didn't do much for me.

Pros:

it leaves your skin fresh, clears up minor acne but not the severe acne. I have oily skin and it really helped me with that and its cheap!

Cons:

leaves skin dry, doesn't really help with difficult acne

it helps with oily skin and it's a gresat cleanser but this will not clear up your acne

Pros:

June 12, 2008

Pros:

You can feel it working

Cons:

Dried my skin out, caused little bumps all over my face, I even had spots that began to bleed. My face was extremely red and felt like sandpaper

Don't use this product unless you are willing to except the fact that your face will look terrible for some time. Irritates skin too much for something that is OTC!
