Pros:

Smells great! Tea Tree oil is a natural antiseptic. Bottle lasts a while, since a little goes a long way. Affordable!!

Cons:

May be hard to find. Found mine at a local health food store, but saw it cheaper at Trader Joes.

It didn't completely eliminate my acne, but it did not make my skin worse. It actually cleared up a lot of my back acne. The key is to lather the soap up in your hands first, and then wash very gently with fingertips. If you wash too roughly your skin will get too dry and peel. I have been using this product for 5 weeks, twice a day, and have moderate acne that has calmed down some. I am a long time acne sufferer and started college this fall. I have tried just about everything over the years (antibiotics, creams, soaps, Proactive, Differin...) and am happy with this face wash and plan to keep using it.

Pros:

Incredibly cleansing, not overly drying, removes almost all oil

Cons:

The smell takes some time to get used to (the tea tree oil smell gets you). Stings your eyes a bit if you don't rinse well.

Incredible incredible product. I've been using it for almost a year now and I won't use anything else. I was left without it for a week and felt like I couldn't live anymore. It's great. The wash itself is a bit watery, but you rub it together in your hands to create a lather. I rub in circles on my problem areas, across my forehead and around my T-zone. After washing, the skin is smooth, oil-free, and feels very tight. As if the pores are growing smaller. After using this product faithfully, two times a day, for a month. My acne almost completely cleared up! Overall, I have no complaints. And I will definitely keep using this until they discontinue it. Which I hope they don't!

Pros:

Cleans well and its organic!

Cons:

Smells a bit funky

I've found that if I leave it on for the whole night, I wake up with less acne and smoother skin.
