Pros:

leaves skin feeling smooth and clear....for the first 3 days maybe

Cons:

After about a week of using the product, my acne became worse.

I've gotten 5 BIGGG zits since i've used this product in less than a week.... First time i've used an acne controlling product and i'm sadly disappointed, would have been better off without.

Pros:

Clears your skin - for a day or two

Cons:

Totally dries it out - even after putting on HEAPS of moisturiser. Then it makes your face itchy, scaly, red, burning, and incredibly sore. Then the acne comes back worse then ever

Is way to harsh on your face. Clears acne, then it comes back worse then ever. DONT EVER USE!!

Pros:

The fragrance is not unpleasant, and it has salicylic acid in the mix, which is the main ingredient in clearing pimples. It did make a slight different in 3 days (the product's guarantee).

Cons:

Acid and scrubs idea wasn't so friendly on my fingers, which felt dry and worn out after each wash since they had to apply the product all over my face. Caused major breakout within a week. Minimal scrubbing action.

The 3-day guarantee worked, but not in the way you'd expect. I have an oily face, and while the salicylic acid helped keep the pimples out in the first 3 days, after a week, WHAM! The zits were all over my forehead, mouth area, and even around my nose. I gave the product a few days more to clear these up, but more appeared. No way am I using Clearasil again. I guess you have to be wary when a long-term use product gives you a quick & easy "See the Difference in 3 Days" guarantee, instead of promising a positive change that will be long lasting. I'm better off buying a specialised scrub for occasional use (every few weeks), than this daily use cleanser which doesn't even work well. Yeah, I saw the difference all right: zits galore in 7 days. >:

Pros:

It felt nice on my skin and exfoliated it and made it feel clean

Cons:

did nothing at all for my acne, ineffective

This did not work at all for me.
March 23, 2008

Pros:

Dries out the skin (more for the first few weeks), reccomended as a face wash for oily skin more than an acne treatment

Cons:

Dont feel it helped clear up any of my now mild acne, these blemishes did dissapear but whether it is due to the treatment or not i don't know

The visibly clearer skin in 3 days is a lie

May be more effective in using the clearasil regimen that they suggest using, but tbh you are more likely to have better results using DKR

Pros:

Works fairly well at clearing up acne quickly.

Cons:

Not always as effective as other times. Then again my skin has a mind of its own.

I like the fact that this product doesnt make my skin feel dry afterwards. I have oily skin and most products usually leave my skin dried out. It seems to work well when I have break outs. I didnt use it for awhile and noticed immediately how great it is at clearing up problem skin once I used it again. Works for me in about 3-5 days at cleaning up the mess that is my face. Affordable and I believe one of the best face washes out there. I have used MANY other types experimenting and so far this is my favorite.
