Pros:

Makes your face look like you put on foundation right after you wash your face

Cons:

The "foundation-effect" wears off after only a couple of minutes and it also smells very strong. I've found that it causes giant pimple on your face, and the pimples actually get stuck in your skin. It also caused me mhiteheads all over my chin+nose!

If you have a couple of pimples, (1-5) then sure, it works. But in more severe cases, it screws up your skin. It makes your face shiny, dries out your skin, smells harsh and causes huge boil sized pimples. VERY umpleasent. I am now turning to AcneFree in hopes that it will work. If you have only a couple of pimples and decide to try this, I would reccomend the Life Brand Oil free medicated lotion from Shoppers Drugmart. It's not pricey ($5.49 in Canada)and it works AMAZING. It makes your skin feel smooth and clears up the pimples.

Smells nice
Does not over-dry

Cons:

Burns a little
Causes some redness
Broke out all of my cheeks

After one use of this cleanser my cheeks got red and broke out. Now I have a huge red pimple on my cheek and I am not happy. I will not use this again, and I wasted my money.

Pros:

instantly softens skin, Supports clearing pimples. It smells clean and makes your skin feel cleaner.

Cons:

Doesn't work well on its own

This is a great product to use at the end of your skin care regiment. I would really suggest using clean and clear astringent before hand. It will work almost instantly when used together. The next morning my skin was already half cleared up and way softer/hydrated.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Made my face waxy, waster of money, didn't work at all and doesn't clean

I bought this product because the word "Stress" was appealing well, it didn't clean my face at all it just left a waxy build up on my face. After washing my face with this I'd use Neutrogena Stess alcohol wipes and those took the dirt off my face that the wash didn't. This product is useless.

Pros:

Effective and non drying. Nice smell.

Cons:

None so far.

I am going to say from the start that I do not have acne, so I do not know if this product works well on severe cases. I do have clogged pores (blackheads on my nose especially). I have been using this product other products and my skin is close to flawless. In the morning I use natural baby wipes to cleanse my skin and follow with the Neutrogena Stress Control Acne Lotion. In the evening I oil cleanse my face with a castor and grapeseed oil combo. I follow that with a natural tea tree oil foaming face wash. Next I apply Alpha Hydrox oil-free formula and wait for that to dry, I then follow with the Neutrogena hydrating cream. So far this has worked well to unclog pores and avoid random breakouts.
