Pros:

Gets rid of oily skin, works great and gently to get rid of acne. It rinses very clean.

Cons:

It has a mild smell...something sort of like cat food. But it doesn't really leave your skin smelling like that. And yes, it dries out your skin, but most cleansers do. You should always use a moisturer anyway.

I went through a battle with moderate acne for almost four years. I tried every home remedy, soap, or acne system, and some things lessened my acne, but it was never really gone. I started using this bar because I was sick of the harsh soaps and medications. I was so surprised when my acne started to disapear and my skin was less oily. It kept my skin clear and healthy-even during that time of the month. Now I finally feel comfortable going out without any concealor or foundation on. I don't have to cover up my skin anymore :) I have two tips for any users-Always use a moisturizer. Clean and Clear actually make some really great moisturizers. I use their Morning Glow moisturizer (and it has spf 15). Also, to keep your bar from "melting", keep it in a drier are of your bathroom; not in your shower or in a puddle on your sink. I'm still on my first bar, and I've been using it for almost a month. :D

Pros:

smells super good, doesnt try my skin out

Cons:

literally melts away in your hand.

I wanted to try a new bar soap and I decided to get this. To me, it smells like shaving cream and I love the smell of shaving cream. It's really cheap but doesnt work. It doesnt prevent any pimples at all, I keep getting more. I guess it cleans your skin but not that good. I will be going back to basis bar soap. It's the same price but works better at preventing pimples. Try it though, may work for you.

Pros:

dried most of my oil problem, makes me feel cleaner, prevents some of the pusy pimples.

Cons:

I feel like I'm getting more of those annoying little white heads that stay under my skin.

Unless it's because I pick at my face too much I can't seem to get rid of the little annoying whiteheads that don't come up to the surface of my skin (mostly around the bottom of my mouth and between eyebrows).

Pros:

It did work pretty well.

Cons:

The smell was bad. It... was TOO easy to use, it melted away easily and you could go through 1 block in like a week.
And after a day or two white... mouldy stuff started appearing on the bar!

It truly does work, but they could improve it in some ways. DEFINATELY with the smell and the quantity maybe.

Pros:

Smells good

Cons:

It produced more pimples, it dried my skin out completley, my is skin peeling all over my face including my eyebrows, made my face swell so bad that I couldn't even see my pores and I developed lines on cheeks. Not to mention when I woke up my skin was a bright red and I am a dark brown. It looked like I had big red stickers on my cheeks! It has been two days since I stopped using the product and my face is still tight from the drying of the product and I'm peeling more than ever.

I have always had very light acne and no scars on my face. After using this product for three days I have never saw my skin look this bad in my life! The thing is, is that I've used this prduct about a year ago and it worked wonders, but this time I don't know what happened. They must've added more ingredients. Here's a suggestion to Neutrogena if they get to read these reviews: Remove what ever is causing the drying of the skin or stop adding so much! You guys don't understand I'm embarrassed to leave my house!

Pros:

It super cleans my skin, leaving it feeling really clean.

Cons:

It also makes my skin super dry.

Glyceren soap has never really helped my acne but then again it dosn't make it worse. It's good to use if i run out of liquid cleanser and havn't gotten around to buying another bottle yet.
