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:

Gentle, Cleans very well, Leaves no residue

Cons:

Could care less for the scent, melts away easy

I use this for my body in the shower, it is the ONLY wash I have found in years to clear up my body acne. The key is to find something that will absolutely leave NO residue. I have had other body washes and they made me break out because they never got me fully clean because of the added body wash features they left behind. I even tried neutrogena's body clear body wash (yeah it helped but didnt clear it like this did). Bottom line, if your looking for a wash to clear away body breakouts, this sure did for me. Cleared up and dont see any new acne coming.

Pros:

very affordable

Cons:

gives a clean tight feeling to facial skin

I have been using this product for 5 days now and my skin looks and feels much better. This soap does dry you out slightly, I just have to follow with a moisturizer.

It works really well. I noticed it started to work about 4 days after I started using it. I try to use it twicea day, in the morning and before i go to bed.

Cons:

It may dry out you skin but use Neutrogena Combination Skin Moisturizer after you wash your face with the soap and your skin wont dry out.

Use it I love it. Remeber the Combination Skin Moisturizer .

Pros:

I have very oily and sensitive skin and this has worked great on it. Been using it for years.

One of the best out there to use.

Pros:

Feels clean afterwards, gets oil and dirt off of my face

Cons:

Had worse acne overall with Neutrogena's acne prone soap than I did with their "original formula" soap; Smells kind of funny

I don't really see why it's for "acne prone" skin; Neutrogena's normal stuff works better if you ask me; They have an "original formula" that is fragrance free, too

Pros:

I have used this product for 12 years, and I love it. I have very oily skin, and so the fact that it is drying is not a problem for me. The salycilic acid complements my other acne medication, and it keeps little zits from forming.

Cons:

Can be drying. If so, try Neutrogena's other bar soaps.

The salicylic acid in it works wonders for small bumps.

Pros:

I have only been using a week and it cleared my skin. But I only have mild to moderate acne

Cons:

Drys out skin.Starting to get litte hardly noticable red itchy bumps.

Use a good moisturizer and you will be good to go.

Pros:

Cleans Very Well

Cons:

Too drying!

I didn't care too much for this soap. It was too drying. It caused me to have red, irritated skin. I had to switch to a cleanser that had olive oil in it for moisture.

Pros:

Really cleans your face well

Cons:

Well, maybe cleans a little too well and your face is dry

Just by using this cleanser, my face has cleared up quite a bit. I haven't had any of those big nasty pimples since I've started using this and my exisiting red spots have gotten much smaller. I think if you used this in conjunction with some sort of quality moisturizer, you'll be good to go!
