Needs a bigger warning on it

I was suffering with pretty consistent pimples, so I thought I'd give this a try. I used it once, with no problems. But by the second use my face had been chemically burnt. It was itchy and rough, with some bumps. Then it progressed into thousands of tiny tiny tiny little oil spots almost, it felt terrible. But I rang them and told them what happened, they happily refunded me $20 when I only paid $13- and sent me a return bag to send the product back to go thru quality control. So my overall experience was awful, but they managed it very well. However I will probably never by another nutrogena product in my life.

Tips: Always check for the warning labels (this one had one tiny warning that said: not suitable for sensitive skin. That was it

No to Neutrogena

Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash did leave my face feeling refreshed and clean, but it didn't do anything to improve my acne at all. It smells nice and feels good but it doesn't actually work. I gave it to my sister to see if it was just my skin but she didn't notice any difference either. Sad because I usually love Neutrogena products!

Not Oil Free In My Books

I used this product for over a month and it made my mainly normal skin (but I get a few spots), pretty oily and really stuck to the surface of the skin.

Tips: Wash off throughly

No recommended!

I used this cleanser for a few months before I got hooked on to using 'Proactiv'. This cleanser is cheap, smells good but did not work for me. My skin is prone to pimples. After using this, it left me with very dry skin and gave me more pimples! I would not use this again. :(

misleading name

I though this would be a great cleanser for my face, but after a few uses my skin was worse than it already was. I was warned about neutrogena but I wasn't convinced that it was such a bad product. It didn't work like it said it was, it leave my skin dry and itchy, and I have massive breakouts which I thought wasn't this products fault

Tips: Please read carefully bfeore buying

Acne wash

I recieved a trial tube of this, which lasted about a week. I found the gel to be very thick and blobby, and it had a very superficial feel on my skin. I didnt really feel as though it gave my skin a deep clean, as the bottle says it does. It left my skin feeling rather average, and not very clean. After a weeks use it hadnt helped with pimples/blackheads or oil control. I wouldn't purchase the full bottle after trialing for a week.

Oil free face wash

Am very prone to acne but found that this product did work but made my skin soooo dry! Have since moved on to oil based products which are more suited to my skin type. Worth a try tho

Need paired with a decent moisturiser.

This product was pretty intense. The first time I used this product I was surprised how stripping it was. Afterwards my skin felt incredibly dry and tight, even after using my regular moisturiser I still felt like my skin had been totally stripped. I swapped out my moisturiser for something a little more nourishing and I'd say I achieved the desired result. In saying that I do get pimple and have excess oily but do not have incredibly acne prone skin, nor do I have sensitive skin. If you have serious acne and or sensitive skin especially, I would not recommend this product, however with a decent moisturiser and for this price I think it works reasonably well.

drys out pimples but skin aswell!

have used this a few times over the last year and have found that it does clear up my skin, it dries out pimples and stops them from being aggressive and sore, but in doing so also dries out your whole face making it feel very tight and itchy. my skin is usually normal/oily, but even i found that this cleanser made my face very dry and created patches of dry flaky skin which caused my foundation to be flaky and not sit properly on my skin. i would recommend this product to people trying to get rid of acne, but make sure you have a good oil free moisturizer to use straight afterwards or your skin will be extremely dry :-))

Tips: use with a moisturizer!!!
