Pros:

It has Salicylic acid that unclogs your pores and exfoliates your skin. It clears acne and redness. Your skin looks so smooth after you use it!

Cons:

None

This is the only cleanser that truly made a difference for me.

Pros:

Got rid of most of my pimples (I used to have pretty severe acne when I was in only 4th and 5th grade, so obviously not all of it is gonna go away)

Cons:

Sightly drying (I have combo skin, so my cheeks are normal but the rest is oily, and it made my cheeks feel a little dry and tight, but nothing a light moisturizer can't fix)

At first it dried out my skin a little, but then it dawned on me: I have combo skin and I'm not using a moisturizer on my cheeks!! I now use Avon Solutions AM Daily Cleanser with SPF 15 just on my cheeks. Overall, I like this cleanser. My favorite that I've used so far with Neutrogena.

Pros:

- prevents big breakouts and most minor ones
- dries up existing acne
- definitely removes oil for longer periods of time
- Leaves skin feeling refreshed
- very cheap

Cons:

- leaves skin dry, especially if using on a consistent basis.
- must be used twice daily, in order to be most effective

first off, let me just say that the foam cleanser version of this product is much more efficient compared to the one being reviewed. It is not as thick and gooey. It is easy to apply and rinse off. also, It leaves your skin feeling healthy and refreshed (only if you have a good moisturizer). I cannot stress how important a good moisturizer is, it is key for making this whole routine work. I personally use vitamin E cream as my moisturizer. My face is never dry, despite consistently using topical acne treatments that are drying. My skin does not flake and does not experience that uncomfortable "dry" feeling when you fee like you cannot move your face because it is painful. Another benefit of using vitamin E cream is its healing properties. It fades redness and slowly but surely removes past acne scars. vitamin E cream is awEsome. Many think that because one can purchase this acne wash in a store for such a low price, it is not sufficient but believe me it is; otherwise I would not have taken the time to review it. Overall, this is a solid product. good luck in fighting the struggle!

Pros:

Cleans oil and make up very well. Makes skin look and feel smoother. Minimizes the look of pores.

Cons:

None

I have been using this product since I was 25 years old (I'm 40 now). It is by far the best cleanser for oily skin. I've tried many other kinds of cleansers and none of them helped. I never actually had acne but have VERY oily skin and this works wonderfully. It's a keeper!

Pros:

i liked the smell, kinda!
cleaning the skin very well!
when i use it my face glows :D and never shine :P
Reduces pimples

Cons:

doesn't actually do that much with acne.. it DOES reduce it but won't make it disappear or anytihng.
NOT for normaldrysenstive skin!

Ok.. i think this product was not meant to be used alone! rly.. excpet of course for those who have a VERY oily skin.. if u have anytype of skin but oily.. u'll have some cons (as i did) mine was that it kinda make my face peel.. not that much but it did.. so i never used this alone.. i always use it with a moisturizer.. and let's be fair here.. almost EVERY single product for treating acne has its cons! and peeling is not only for this product.. i'd recommend this product with Dan's Regimen.. i used it to cleanse and it was AMAAAAAZING!! but as i said.. unless u've got a very oily skin never use this alone..

Pros:

Well, it dries up my pimples and clears up my skin really, really fast. I mean, I've only used it four times, but I can already see results.

Cons:

Don't know?

I don't know what people are complaining about when they say that it dries up their skin. Uh, guys? There's something in this world called MOISTURIZER. Rub on a liberal amount of (NOT oil-free) moisurizer and voila! Also, about the rash and inflamation, its hardly the products fault. It's just an allergic reaction. Sheesh, peoples. I recommend this to anyone who trusts this product and decides to put on only one SMALL pump each time they use it. Good luck! =]

Pros:

Clears up acne, has a gentle and refreshing smell

Cons:

Dries out skin, so make sure you have a good mosturizer.

This product is pretty amazing. I've tried a lot of things to manage my acne, and NONE has worked as well as this. I went from having 10-20 pimples on my face at once to having one occasionally! The bottom side is that it WILL dry out your skin, no matter how oily it is, so make sure to buy a mosturizer. I usually use it twice a day.
