Pros:

gentle.
good for sensitive skin.
no smell.
doesn't sting.
foamy.

Cons:

doesn't take off makeup.
bigger bottles.

been on the DKR for about 3 weeks now, and my face is still adjusting. so far I like the cleanser i like how gentle it is, and it doesn't leave my face tight or dry like some others do. the only thing I don't like is that it doesn't take off my makeup. I hardly wear makeup and when I do it's a light powder cover up. Today I washed my face with the DKR cleanser and patted dried my face and noticed that there was makeup still left on the towel. also I think the bottles need to be bigger for the price of the DKR and shipping.

Pros:

Very light and refreshing

Cons:

None

I'll be using this product from now on...Ever since I've started using the regimen I haven't had any acne at all it's amazing. I've tried so many other products including proactive which used to work but stopped working and dried out my skin. Cleanser, BP, Mousturizer and AHA at night = perfect skin if you stick to it.

Pros:

Gentle.

Cons:

Didn't clean well.

Everyone's skin is different and this cleanser simply did not do anything for me. It dried my skin out more than anything else.

Pros:

Very gentle. Doesn't cause breakouts. Lathers well. Removes excess oil.

Cons:

None.

Dan's Kit and regimen has saved me. Follow the directions faithfully and your acne will soon disappear. Slowly ramp up the benzoyl peroxide and make sure to moisturize. If you still suffer from flakiness add jojoba as Dan recommends. Be gentle and patient! The products will speak for themselves.

Pros:

Prepares skin for Benzoyl Peroxide
Can use as Shampoo also
Unlike most gentle cleansers, makes skin FEEL clean.

Cons:

After I wash my face with this it makes me VERY pale.

I have dark skin because I am biracial (mom is black, dad is white) Although I LOVE the cleanser, I notice that with my type of skin it seems to make me look very white and pale afterwards, I even follow the 10 second rule and make sure to pat dry only. I don't know if this is normal for people of color when they use this, but sometimes I am so pale from it that people around the house worry that I am sick. My color seems to come back after I apply the Benzoyl Peroxide and the Moisturizer (all Dan's). and that is the ONLY reason I didn't give this the extra star is because of how pale it makes me. However it is MUCH better than Cetaphil's Gentle Cleanser. I reccomend this (if your not on the regimen and just looking for a good cleanser) to people with caucasian skin

Pros:

- Super gentle
- I like the smell. It's weird. But I like it. ;) Some say it's unscented- but I definitely smell something.
- The bottle is cute. :)

Cons:

Because of it's consistency it tends to run down my arms when I'm washing my face in the sink. But I'm just kinda messy like that. ha

Cetaphil didn't give me this problem, but this cleanser is just a better cleanser so I deal with that tiny tiny inconvenience. Sounds silly to even mention, really.

It's super gentle and great for pretty much any skin type! I always feel clean once I wash it off. It's not SO gentle that it doesn't clean your face! I used to use Cetaphil, but I definitely prefer this cleanser. If I was in a crunch and unable to order this from acne.org in time, I'd probably try Purpose Cleanser. I heard it's super gentle just like this cleanser. :) Bottom line- if you're ordering off acne.org anyway you may as well give this a try. And the big bottle is only a few bucks more than the smaller bottle. If you are looking for JUST a cleanser, then you could probably try something like Purpose from a drugstore and save yourself the hassle of ordering off the internet. Unless you really love the acne.org bottles like I do.... I am sort of a nerd like that.

Pros:

Lathers well, a little goes a long way

Cons:

Too drying.
Contains sulfates, which is disappointing.

It does a good job when it comes to removing dirt and makeup, but is super drying. It feels like it strips my skin completely. It could simply be because I'm not used to using a product that contains sulfates. I'm switching back to Burt's Bees ASAP.

Pros:

It left my skin feeling very clean.
It was sudsy and felt nice.
It was simple to use.
It's quick.
It seems to be working.

Cons:

The smell made me gag! I even contacted the website to see if something was wrong with my cleanser! They haven't written me back yet.
It honestly smells like vomit...
It dried my skin out a little.

Overall I liked it. If I hold my breath while washing my face, it's awesome.
