    This has been my go to cleanser since 2001. I always try other cleansers and always end up back to this one. If you have oily, acne prone, clogged skin that's hard to normalize this has been life...

    I used it in 2014 with success but the skin changes you know? I used this August 2016 and I thought it was doing good until I cut it out and realized it was WAAAY TOO stripping of my oils. I...

    I liked this product at first because it made my combination/oily skin less oily. However, I realized that this broke me out literally the day after and was clogging up my pores, enlarging...

    THIS CLEANSER IS MUCH BETTER THAN ANY BENZYL PEROXIDE CLEANSERS, FOR MY SENSITIVE, COMBINATION, ACNE-PRONE, LATE THIRTIES-AGED SKIN TYPE. I USE IT THREE TIMES PER DAY, EVERYDAY. I LIKE THE BIG,...

    HG for me! Definitely drying in full liquid form, but if you buy a foam pump and put it in that it works great and the product lasts so much longer. Gets off ALL of my makeup, even waterproof...

    I've been using this cleanser for over a year now. It is the only product I've found that, when used consistently every day, keeps my skin mostly-clear of acne. (My skin has not, since I was a...

    I recently had huge breakouts on my face, some cystic acne even, and decided to give this a try. After 3-4 days, I noticed that my pimples had become smaller. My skin is still in recovery mode, but...

    I have mixed thoughts on this product. I used to suffer from oily, acne-prone skin. This is the product that cleared up my skin! It made my face feel so clean, it removed my FACE makeup (don't use...
