Neutrogena : Oil-Free Oil-Free Acne Stress Control, 3-in-1 Hydrating Acne Treatment

I was surprised at how well this worked considering I'm not a fan of Neutrogena products in general. It's actually a good inexpensive product. I wanted something with 2% salicylic acid to exfoliate old acne and keep my pores clear, but not drying since I had already experienced some redness and peeling with benzoyl peroxide and wanted to give my skin a break from that, plus I liked that this said it worked for stress related acne and calmed down redness and would keep my skin hydrated- a hard combination to find in an acne product since they are usually drying. This actually did everything it said it would do so I was impressed enough to write this review. I've used this for 3 days and nights. I had big acne but only a few spots- in other words, not light acne because it was big cystic things that I had picked at, but not all over my face, just a few spots. I was most impressed with how this made my skin matte but not overly dry, and reduced redness and inflammation.

l have only 3 day using it and it feel good and my face look good l . l will keep on using it

I recently broke out because I was trying other acne products that didn't seem to work but now that I'm back onto using this product my face seemed better. Because of the other products I used, my face was irritated,red, and had a burning sensation but when I went back to using this product my face was instantly relieved and hydrated plus it smells good! OBVIOUSLY if your skin is sensitive/allergic to salicylic acid then don't use this and stick to BP. Overall this product I'd say would work even better with the other acne stress control products but if you already have a wash and toner than don't bother to get the other acne stress control products and just get this one.

Have used for about 8 - 12 months on and off and when first used worked very well in both keeping my acne at bay and moisturizing my skin. Now, seems that it doesn't do anything for my acne, but continues to be a decent moisturizer.

This is a GREAT product. I use it at night before bed, and in the morning after i wash my face. It can double as a moisturizer, I sometimes use a regular lotion (garnier skin renew) if I'm feeling overly dry. The scent is nice. Its a very light treatment and works great.

I LOVVVVEEEEEEEEEEE THIS!!! Other products have always felt weird on my face and broke it out more but this is a fresh and moisturizing acne treatment. Just take a bit and put it all over you problem areas, or in my case my whole face lol. Make sure to use moisturizer after! (I use spectro, its helped me a lot!) It clears up skin really well and my face always feels so smooth and nice after. I have bad breakouts and cystic acne but this really helps me with redness and soothing irritation which is the first step to clearing skin. I really love the products on this line so far. If you have confidence in your products, you will really believe it works, and it will work! Like the old sugar pills trick make sure you feel motivated and open to all products. I really love this and am excited to continue using it. The smell is really nice for one, and if its not working for you don't worry! Even if it doesn't help right away, find something comfortable for you rather than something you are always worried if its working. give your skin a break, and dont use the same products for too long.

NEVER PUT THIS TRASH ON YOUR PRECIOUS FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had moderate acne and then I was making a lot of progress and I went from moderate to mild acne my face was almost clear, I was so HAPPY, I wanted to speed up the progress. So I purchased this product to help. The first day it started drying out my face my face was DRY AS HELL and I have OILY skin. so yeah, then it started burning into my flesh and oh my lawd this was painful and my face was red as hell and it sucks cuz my skin tone is fair so I looked very very strange, then I noticed that the irritation was causing a lot of pimples, I broke out so bad I have never had so many pimples in MY DAMN LIFE. I threw it in the trash, in 1 day and 1 night it totally ruined meeeeeeeee!!!!! It's been a month since then i have mild acne now but wow i suffered so much from that.

While this product doesn't do much in clearing up acne, it does help prevent it. It's also hydrating, and isn't heavy at all.

This was a waste :( But it is worth a go since it is cheap and doesn't make your skin worse or anything.

I used to break out almost exclusively on my forehead. It was never-ending and my forehead was absolutely never clear.. One new blemish a day. I've been using this for a little over a month and my forehead hasn't had a blemish in almost three weeks. Thank god. While this has pretty much stopped my usual breakouts completely, it did not prevent a terrible hormonal breakout on the sides of my face, where I don't usually break out, a day or two before my period. The rest of my face did manage to stay completely clear, which doesn't really ever happen. Otherwise, I love this product, because I don't have to deal with any burning or stinging and yet it's very good at keeping my pores clean when no other product or prescription worked.
