    I wouldn't even give this one lippie. It was the worst facial product of any kind I've ever used. It is extremely drying and 2 days after I tried it I broke out like I never have before. Little red...

    This does absolutely nothing to clear up my acne. Feels like my skin is not clean but at the same time it's too drying.

    I really like Neutrogena Oil-Free Cleanser. I tend to have oily skin and this eliminates the oil fantastically. Although others may say that the cleanser is drying, try using only in the morning or...

    I used this once at my friends house. It didn't absorb oil, but other than that it was average and inoffensive. It was fairly gentle. Probably anyone could use it without any sort of allergic...

    Neutrogena really hypes this up, but I found it harsh and irritating. Cleansers are supposed to be gentle, but get off the grime.

    Works well, but very drying. Wondering if they couldn't have had it work AND not be so drying.

    I used this for a few years and finally found it was way too drying for my sensitive, rosacean skin. Besides, I never got used to the horrible mediciney smell. Blah. I now agree with people who...

    I love this becase it rids my face of nasty oils that may cause breakouts, and it isn't harsh. The only thing is that it makes your face a little tight after cleansing, but that goes away fast. The...

    I totally agree with the MUAer below, but if you have very oily and acne prone skin like mine this is the ONLY thing that will work. It's gotten rid of all my pimples..love this!

    This stuff is SO drying! It made existing pimples more noticeable on my oily face because the skin around blemishes was drying up and flaking. It's strong, irritating, and no good for sensitive skin.

    This made my oily skin dry and flaky. I'm usually happy with neutrogena formulations, but I hated this product. Way too harsh for human skin.

    I've been using this for several years, but I'm kind of on the prowl for something new. This cleanser makes my face nice and soft, but I can't really see that its helping my (mild) acne very much....
