Pros:

works pretty well, doesnt burn, doesnt leave oily skin

Cons:

sometimes dries out skin if you use it too often

try it, cuz it will at least reduce your acne- if not, then it will get rid of it all
July 10, 2007

Pros:

HELPS clear skin, doesn't smell awful, affordable

Cons:

Doesn't clear skin completely (but it does help A LOT), dries out skin a little (just remember to use moisturizer; I do and I'm fine)

I've been using this for a while, and my skin has been getting better as time goes on. You just have to stick with it. Definitely try it AT LEAST.

Pros:

Your face feels clean. Good for acne on your back.

Cons:

It dyed my skin out considerably and didn't help the problem. (face)

I will never use this product again on my face. It worked well and helped clear up the acne on my upper back though. For $5 it is worth a shot, but if you have sensitive skin, be aware of the consequences.

Pros:

It made my skin feel clean right after use.

Cons:

After just a few uses, my skin was extremely dried out and breaking out like never before.

This is awful an I wish I could get my money back.

Pros:

It makes your face feel clean and refreshed. It works with my normal skin very well. It is affordable. It has a nice clean smell to it.

Cons:

It doesnt clear acne. Its texture is not even. Its packaging isn't great.

Buy this product if you want REALLY REALLY small acne to go away but it will not happen fast. It cleans your face very well. It is sort of like a facewash for skin without acne. but this is only my opinion. :]

Pros:

affordable

Cons:

Extremely drying and irritating

Used for 3 1/2 days (bought travel size for a trip). By the third day, it felt like I was burning my skin. Putting sunscreen on made it feel even worse. It became red and extremely dry and I have oily skin. It's been more than 3 days since I last used it and my face is still very dry, flaky, and tight around my mouth even with moisturizing. I'm hoping it will get back to normal soon because I feel like I look horrible. I think that there should at least be a warning on this product, seeing that there are quite a few reviews on how irritating it is! Even the good reviews say that it's very drying. Do not use if you don't want dry skin!

Pros:

It doesn't irritate skin.

Cons:

Doesn't eliminate pimples, or reduce redness! Doesn't work!

So many dermotologists recommend this cleanser with some medication cream they prescribe, but this doesn't work. At least it didn't work for me. I had moderate acne - not too survire, but bad enough for me to want to do something about it. Anyways, I've used up two bottles of it and used it correctly (washed once in the morning and once at night) and it didn't do anything for me. It was two months later that I decided to try something else. Switched to Oxy Max (with 10% BP) and I noticed a difference, but after a month of that, still not completely clear. When Clean and Clear came out with their 3 part Acne Control Kit, I gave it a try. After 2 weeks, my skin has been better than ever since I got acne 1 year ago. So I recommend Clean & Clear Acne Control Kit not Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash!

Pros:

Dries up oily skin, reduces the size and number of pimples

Cons:

Can be extremely drying and irritating

I found that this product did not agree with my face. I do, however use it for spot treatment on face and body, and usually by the next morning, the pimple is barely noticable. It takes a long time to get used to, and dries up my facial skin unless it's only a tiny dot of the stuff. And don't over use it, it'll turn your skin a light orange.
