Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash

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.

I used to use this product all of the time when I was younger and found it to be fantastic. I wouldn't use it any more as I am older now so I don't have a oily skin type like I had as a teenager and in my early 20's but I would recommend it for someone with a true oily acne prone skin.

I found this cleanser really drying, so not suitable for prolonged use - I've kept it around and use it every now and then during a breakout, but if I use it multiple days in a row, I get dry, flaky patches - gross!

This product is perfect for people who get oily skin like me. It got rid of my pimples and I haven't any problems with my face again, however that's just on my face I would recommend this product to other but you may not get the same results as I did, But I love this it also smells good to!

I had suffered huge break out in the last few months. I tried high end cleanser and natural cleanser but nothing help until i find this one. It doesnt clear my acnes but i found my skin is cleaner and has less break out. Yes my skin is soft and smooth like baby butt, also brightener. The downside is it dry my skin out badly. I have to use moisturizer straight away after wash otherwise my face cant move. It removes make up quite well. Overall i would still use it but less often.

This was the first product I used that dried out my skin so badly that it actually made it flake around my nose/mouth/chin :( However, it was effective at controlling acne, and when I retried it a couple of months later (in summer rather than winter, using only once a day at most, and moisturising well afterwards), I didn't suffer from any irritation. The risks mean it's probably better for those with acne prone skin to use a gentler cleanser and target acne with leave on applications instead.

I didn't understand why the rating for this product was so bad until I read the reviews. I think a lot of people didn't really understand how to use the product.

This particular acne wash has 2% salicylic acid. It's meant to dry out your skin as a way to clean out pores and dry out acne (don't ask how I don't know the full science behind it) It works if you use it properly AND when you tone and moisturize after every use it's the most effective. It also lasts you a really long time. I've had mine for about 3 months and i'm still not halfway finished. I use it twice a day.

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!

I really liked this skin care from neutrogena. I received this product in a sample pack from neutrogena. This is a great travel size pack and I used it when I was camping. I have oily skin and this cleansed out my pore. It didnt leave my skin dry and it felt refreshed. I did use cream afterwards.

I use this twice everyday, it makes my skin feel smooth and look clean and clear. I would recommend to anyone who has a combination of oily to dry skin- this definitely works. I have sensitive skin as well, and it doesnt react or irritate my skin.
