I used to use this when I was a teenager and had a real problem with oily skin, this helped significantly but the neutrogena brand can be a little expensive, not that I have compared it to any other brand this is just from my poor person point of view. I dont use it anymore and probably wont use it again but mainly because I no longer have the problems it helps. If you need a cleanser, try it

Reviews
Unlike a lot of the other reviewers, I didn't find this cleanser particuarly drying- if you use a really good moisturiser afterwards, flakiness should be kept to a minimum. However, it doesn't really do much in the way of clearing up acne. I think it is overpriced.
I used this cleanser when I had quite bad skin - to be fair it did really clear up my skin quite fast.
The only downside was that it made my skin SO dry - my skin was constantly flaking off - even when I moisturised all throughout the day.
It did not look or feel nice at all!
After using this on my face it leaves the whole thing tight and uncomfortable. Extremely drying, that's about all it does. Contains salicylic acid, but considering you don't leave this on your face, it's not exactly very effective. I wouldn't use this again whatsoever.
Tips: Might be helpful for those with extremely oily skin?
I used this product in my twenties, when I suffered from horrible acne outbreaks. This face wash was good at cleansing but left my skin super dry and stripped of it's natural moisture which wasn't very helpful in what it claims to do.
I have a really oily T zone so I decided to try this product but when I used this face wash, I felt as if it did nothing much to help my acne. It only made my cheeks extremely dry as it was too harsh for it. Wouldn't buy it again
I've noticed my skin has become a lot clearer since using this product and following with a toner/moisturiser. You only need the smallest amount of cleanser and it foams up well. You feel as though you are getting a really thorough clean and it visibly gets rid of blackheads without stripping your skins natural oils. I don't use this cleanser everyday however, as I feel its best just for those days when you need an extra good clean.
I've tried tons and tons of products like this and this one just didn't stand out for me. Gave a good clean but at the end of the day it made no difference to the condition of my skin. Wouldn't re-purchase
I personally do not like the brand used it a few years ago but all the products stripped my skin and was horrible. you definitely get what you pay for with these products and unfortunately i found them cheap and nasty, I don't recommend
I quite liked this product for the most part, it kept the worst of my acne at bay most of the time, but could be a little harsh at times. Every now and then it would make my skin feel all burny and sensitive and eventually I stopped using it.
