Pros:

cleans okay and is not overdrying which is nice; The price is affordable since it lasts many months depending how much you use it; lathers up real well and for people having problems with lather rub your palms in circles to get a good lather

Cons:

does not clean well like other stronger cleansers; think I have little bumps on forehead b/c of that fact; got a filmy feel afterwards; way too big for convenience

I have very oily skin though so I need do need a cleanser with a higher PH to clean all of that off but not be too overdrying; this is better for normal skin and dry b/c it just cleans but I need one that will do more so probably one with a little higher of a PH or an extra ingredient; still overall pretty nice and not overdrying which was a good thing but my skin gets oily again anyway so having a cleanser thats drying does not matter really; I use dove creamy facial cleanser which is just a little drying but overall still really good

so sad this wasnt for me
I really liked this cleanser and it really made my skin smooth but i just cant use this cleanser because i think im allergic to it. when i dont but BP after this cleanser it doesnt give me rash but every time in the evening when i clean my skin with this and but BP on, the next morning my skin is red and sensitive and has rash. when i stopped using this cleanser the rash went away.. could i be allergic to this while it is for sensitive skin?

Best change you can make in your routine.
I've been on the regimen for years (3-4) and couldn't be happier. I find the cleanser to be the foundation of good skin health. If you are wary of changing up your skin care routine, start with the cleanser. Don't be put off by its no-frills, unscented quality. This is the real deal! I know many brands peddle micro beads, exfoliating action, tingling sensation, and other magical qualities to make you feel like the cleanser is 'doing' something. Don't slap your face with such harshness! Get it clean and balanced with the low-key, super gentle acne.org cleanser.

Leaves the skin feeling very clean and soft.
It lathers very well
Does not over dry skin.
Almost tearless.

Have to oder online, but i guess its ok.

I absolutely like this cleanser because it leaves my skin feeling clean, and it does not over dry it too much. I like that there is no scent in it and that it doesn't smell like soap. Overall great cleanser!

Pros:

Great basic cleanser
Works well with my Clarisonic
1 pump is the perfect amount
Fragrance free
Leaves my skin feeling soft & smooth
Doesn't dry my skin out
Generous sizes for so little money!

Cons:

Absolutely none

This cleanser is the best cleanser I have ever used! I've had acne since I was about 12/13 and tried everything under the sun! Until I finally came across this. I've never looked back since. My acne severity is light compared to how it used to be & it's all thanks to this! I bought two of the bigger bottles after I ran out of my first one for about $40 which includes postage to Australia. Definitely cheaper than Proactiv! And much much more effective. I will be using this for years to come.

Pros:

Gentle
Cleans well
Lathers nicely
No fragrance (yet it smells nice to me)
PH 5.5

Cons:

Tiny bit drying

Its awesome! I have used this for almost a year and it works great to keep my skin nice and smooth. Although it is a bit drying, a little moisturizer fixes this problem in no time. I appreciate that it is so gentle and contains no fragrances or aritificial coloring. PH 5.5 is also important to maintain the skins acid mantle. My favorite cleanser!

Pros:

Works!

Cons:

Slightly Over drying, but not at all horrible.

For the last 8 years of my life since I was about 13 I have been getting acne. Not horrible or bad acne by any means, but random breakouts, pimples here and there. Mainly blackheads, and those tiny little holes. I have seriously tried everything. The best solution at first was natural solutions such as the egg white mask, lemon, honey, and baking soda. It worked good, but I still got random breakouts. I seem to have finally found the solution, this acne.org cleanser + treatment. It truly works. My face looks better and clearer than ever. Just be sure to follow the instructions.

Pros:

Cleanses Well

Cons:

Expensive

It cleanses just as well as my usual gentle cleansing dollar store cleansers. I don't have bad acne, and I don't usually wash my face (forgetful), and when I do wash with a gentle cleanser, my face is completely smooth. So, including shipping, its just cheaper to get the dollar store cleansers.

Pros:

Gentle
Cleans without having to scrub
No smell
Large quantity
Takes off makeup well with only a few seconds of washing

Cons:

None.

This is a great cleanser. I was used to using scrubs with micro beads, etc in them but this cleanser does as good of a job with ought being rough on my skin. I only wash for a few seconds like suggested by Dan and it really does clean my face well! It's gentle and doesn't have a smell (not that I've noticed) which I like. It seems to take off my eye makeup well too which surprised me. Normally I would have to scrub my eyes with a little more vigor but I can gently run this over my eyelids and my makeup is gone in a few minutes. If there is any left over, I use jojoba oil to clean up the rest. Really happy with this cleanser.
