Pros:

it's a good for a regular face wash.

Cons:

it doesn't help your acne. i used it for probably a year as just a face wash for morning/night. nothing ever cleared up.

you can buy any old facewash for cheaper than this. the 3 day thing is not true. don't bother.

Pros:

It has exfoliating beads which make skin soft
Very affordable

Cons:

Made my acne MUCH worse - not effective!

I tried to add this to my skin care routine because I have recently moved and my skin has gotten worse since moving! I thought that the beads would help with my more severe acne but it has only made it worse!!! I have never had this bad acne, little clusters of BIG pimples and zits have broken out on my cheeks where I usually don't get any spots at all. Also there are some smaller red bumps that I've never gotten before. May work for oily skin with VERY mild acne but otherwise, no!

Pros:

The cleanser has a pleasant smell to it, and it feels soft to the touch.

Cons:

However, this product did NOT work for me within 3 days, or even within a month! I'm very disappointed in this product. For something so cheap, I'm surprised that I actually believed it would work.

Don't waste your time. If your acne is truly something you want to clear up, contact your doctor about a dermatologist and set up an appointment to find something TRULY worth your time. This product is a disgrace, and should immediately remove the "Clearer skin in 3 days" guarantee.

Pros:

cheap

Cons:

this product doesn't work

I only breakout before my period and during finals so I bought this product for that period of time but it increased my 2 or 3 acne bumps to 10! This is not a good product!

Pros:

Makes the skin feel nice, but thats pretty much it

Cons:

Smells bad, doesnt clear anything, and the 3 days clearer thing is bull****

Doesnt work as an acne cleanser, but its got a nice packaging

Pros:

makes my skin feel really clean + nice + tight for the next few hours after using it.

Cons:

in the first week of using this product, my acne became the worst it's EVER been. it doesn't smell too nice, but it's not completely bad either.

i never used it twice a day lol thats just ccrraazzyy. once every day is enough. in the first week of using this product, my acne became the worst it's EVER been. and thats HUGE. i swear im not lying, i had about 20 little-medium pimples scattered round my face with about 5 HUUUGGEE massive disgusting ones that looked like cysts. but for some reason, i kept with it, and now it's been about a week and a half and its calmed down a bit. it SEEMS like its starting to actually work but im not completely sure. oh, and i have extremely sensitive skin so, yeah... this probably would've worked for people with lighter acne and not so sensitive skin. recommended: maybe.

Pros:

it makes your skin feel soft...

Cons:

Doesn't control acne, I still broke out using it. I started getting cysts after using this!

REALLY bad cleanser. It does NOT clear your skin in 3 days, it made mine WORSE. Don't waste your money on this crap!
June 28, 2008

Pros:

It cleared my acne the first few days that I used it.

Cons:

After the first few days, it didn't do anything. My skin dried out.

I used this product for about a month, consistently, before I gave up on it. I have now began to use the product again. It is now a month after I gave up on it. Since it is still the first few days I'm using it again, it is clearing up my acne. If you would prefer a more consistent product, do not purchase this.
