    Terrible. This was one of a few cleansers available in travel sizes, which I desperately needed, so I bought it and used it for a week. My acne was slightly worse afterwards and my skin was DRY!!!...

    Just an okay product. While it didn't aggravate my acne, it certainly didn't do anything amazing. I prefer Cetaphil's Gentle Cleanser for Normal/Oily skin, over this. However, it did help my...

    I have combination/sensitive/acne-prone skin. This cleanser was okay. It didn't dry out my skin too much, but it also didn't seem to make my skin look better.

    Another one of my staples during my secondary school days when I had breakouts. The packaging sucks cos it leaks easily.

    This is a pretty good cleanser. I have combination skin with very oily skin on the T-zone and normal skin on the cheeks. It does dry my skin out a bit, but once I apply moisturizer, my skin is back...

    Hmm...well it definitely removed oil and makeup very well from my face. I didn't like the tight dry feeling afterwards and my skin started flaking quite a bit. I suppose a good moisturizer would...

    This product made my face swell up. After using it for 2 days my skin felt and looked like it was sunburned. I would never buy this product again.

    I really wanted to like this—a no frills, basic acne cleanser that wasn’t too expensive. I really didn’t like it all though. My skin didn’t feel very clean after using it—it felt kind of rough and...

    I think this product is great for reducing acne. If you use it only on the acne-prone parts of your skin, it won't seem to over-dry your skin overall. I use this during days of breakout, and it...
