Too strong and not for normal skin

I used to have oily skin, and my friend recommended this to me as being a great cleanser. What I found was this was far too drying and strong for me personally. My skin went red straight afterwards and it left me feeling itchy. Would not recommend for light oily to normal skin.

Great for acne

This stuff works amazing, my skin began to clear the day after I started using it and after a week my skin was almost perfect. However it does dry out your face a lot and it made my face feel very tight after using it but after I applied moisturiser it seemed better.

Tips: Definitely have a good facial moisturiser on hand as this face wash will make your skin quite dry

Too drying and strong

I used this product awhile ago, It was easy to use and had a smooth texture.The smell wasn't pleasant very artificial.I personally found this product to be to strong for my skin and it made my skin dry and flaky in some areas. This is why I would not be likely to use it agin but did find that it helped to clear my skin up.

Tips: Use with a moisturiser

Ouch!

Upon first using this it burnt my face so badly! Turned it into a red irritated mess. Would definately not recommend for sensitive skin. I have not had much luck with neutrogena products. They all just seem far too harsh for my skin but this was definately the worst.

Warning when buying this!

Firstly, this dried out my skin way too much. In the first use, my skin felt tight, then horribly dry, which I just tried to correct with my normal facial moisturiser. I thought if I just keep it moist it would counter that. I wish I had of stopped there! The second time I used this, I woke up the next day with what I can only describe as hives all over my face and neck - I was extreamly swollen, red, dry, and it stung like Sunburn. If anything, it reminded me of a chemical burn. I have no allergies, my skin has never reacted to any product before, nor do I have sensitive skin, needless to say I am not happy. After this, I looked online for reviews, too many people complained of the exact same reactions, so I am not even sure why this product is being sold. The company reply with "This is not a typical reaction", well from all the reviews I have read, there are more bad reactions than good! It has taken 5 days for the swelling to go down, my skin now feels like it is recovering from a chemical burn, it looks terrible. No creams worked on it, I took antihistamines which I had to go out to buy because I have never had reactions to anything, so nothing was in the cupboards - but it done nothing, I just had to ride it out. I understand this might work for some, but the majority is too negative. Please do not use this, I would hate for others to suffer like this.

Tips: If you notice the dryness, stop using it!

Facewash

I didnt find this helped me at all, I never felt clean faced after I used the product and it didnt help clear my skin it actually made it worse but that just may be the effect it had on me.

Amazing!

Since I have constant breakouts of my skin.. a cleanser like this is a must have! I've been using it for a while now and have had no problems. It feels really soft on the skin as well as it really does reduce the number of future and existing breakouts.

Dad stole it from me.

Love this! I have very dry skin however and made sure I always moisturized afterwards. My dad stole this after me and I was wondering why it was going so fast!
