Pros:

Does what it says it does.

Cons:

Doesn't do what it says it does for very long.

The 3-day promise came true for me. Past that, not a whole lot of improvement. The formula is WAY too harsh--the scrubbing bits left me itchy and the cleanser itself made my skin dry out. After a few months, my skin is worse than ever.

Pros:

VERY IMPRESSED!
Does exactly what it says on the tin. I can not believe how much the redness has reduced. Even my scarring is a lot less noticable.

Cons:

Price

I DEFINATELY saw a difference in 3 days. Great product, if a little on the dear side.

Pros:

does improve(slightly) mild acne by drying the face.

Cons:

none

try not to use allover face but in certain problematic areas (p.ex.forehead). Ideal only for very mild acne

Pros:

None

Cons:

Tightening of the skin and to the point where it starts flaking.

Don't use Clearasil "ultra" I've tried some of their other products and they seem to be good but their "ultra" formula seems to tighten my skin and make it flakey. the flakes started appearing 1 - 2 days after I had used it and the flakes under my nose became so dry that when I pulled them off, blood was revealed, I definitely don't recommened this product

Pros:

Clears up acne
Skin feels clean, smooth, and hydrated

Cons:

i'm cheap so i wish it would cost less

When I get pimples--which is usually around the time i get my period--they are the big cystic type (usually around my mouth and chin). i actually stopped using proactiv after i found this wash. Since then, i have rarely gotten pimples (and when i do, they're not as large and don't last very long). People have actually noticed a difference in my skin.

Pros:

It smells kind of alright

Cons:

Price, it may not work in 3 days

I havent used it but ive seen it work for some people i guess. I dont clearasil only olive oil and vaseline and sometimes nivea cream thats all for me and it works and washing my face with cold water. for the ones that f**ked up your face use either toothpaste on your face or put a paper bag over

Pros:

It actually does what it says, after a few days my spots really started clearing up!

Cons:

None I know of

The most effective face product I've used,and you feel the smoothness and freshness after every face wash!It's good quality and anytime I get a bad breakout, using Clearisal Ultra really helps to shrink it, and clear it.
June 9, 2008

Pros:

easy to use, only one step

Cons:

horribly drying and no apparent effect

i first used this product because it was reccommended to me by a couple of my friends. i used it for a week straight and it actually made my face peel. i used a moisturizer three times a day because it was so bad but it didn't stop peeling for about three weeks.
