I have used one bottle, as it didn't help my cystic acne, I finished the bottle and started using more organic products on my face.

I have been using this product for almost a month. I didn't have any excess peeling (have that anyway) that i noticed when I started using this. However, I got a bad breakout which seemed to get...

Love this cleanser. I use it with my clarisonic and I get fabulous results. The packaging is great and it lasts a long time. The scent is kind of strange, but I got used to it. It's expensive but...

After my sensitive mid-thirties skin started rebelling, I decided to give this face wash a try. Over the last three weeks, I have used it with my Clarisonic as well as on its own – both with great...

First of all this review is for Skinceuticals PURIFYING Cleanser with Glycolic acid, which is the world's best cleanser if you have sensitive skin and use Retin A. The Glycolic brightens you up,...

I had high hopes for this, but found it made my skin really dry and ended up exchanging it for the Skinceuticals Foaming Cleanser. That wasn't too great, either. Skinceuticals makes some good...

I loooove SkinCeuticals Clarifying Cleanser. I have oily skin, and am never without a pimple (I am almost 30!) My esthetician recommended this, as she has the same type of skin as me. I bought a...

I think this was ok. Doesn't leave me feeling squeaky clean, but after a few days my skin started to get flaky. So now I only use this occasionally.

I use this 3 times a week. It makes my skin glow. I love it. I would not use it everyday though, I get a feeling it will be drying and irritating!

Not bad, very very similar to Murad's AHA/BHA exfoliating wash. I give it a 4 instead of a 5 because the information made it sound like the scrubbies would be more substantial, but they are very...

Wow! Irritating AND didn't get rid of my blackheads or help with my MILD acne! An irritating waste of money. Be kind to your skin... Don't strip and harm it with this crap.

My derm recommended this to help control breakouts and I can't really use it. Every time I use it on my face, I peel the next day. It could probably replace going to get a chemical peel in my...

After a few weeks of use, I figured that I need to use makeup remover to remove my makeup before slather this cleanser on, as it does not remove make-up as it cleans. Overall, it's an average...

I am not sure if the tube I bought is old or if this cleanser is supposed to be this runny. It globs out of the tube so I poured it into a plastic flip top bottle so as not to waste any of it. You...

Ouch. This cleanser is a bit harsh and stings my face a bit, I can tolerate it only about 2 times per week. To be fair I do use RX retinoids so perhaps my skin is more sensitive than most. It...
