Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've fought with acne for about 14 years. As typical it was far worse in my teen years but it's never been non-existant.
As a result of my long term fight I've used dozens of different creams, lotions, washes, foams, bars...
This product is definately at the top of the list of things I've used. It's not over drying like some other products. While I thought that very dry might be good as oil seems to be the problem, drying tends to cause more problems than benefits. This cleans well without drying.
It's very thick. It has the consistency of vegetable shortining or cream cheese. Where most creams are thin like soaps tend to be, this could be compared to a cold cream or noxema's traditional cream.
There's a strong tingling that comes with using this. The product suggests it is the 'deep cleaning' - I'd argue it's menthol or something similar to suggest deep cleaning. When they say on the label "don't use near eyes" take heed. Whatever makes it tingle will spread to your eyes if you wash too close and it's not pleasant. Its never burned or be unbearable but for about 20 minutes after use too close to the eyes you'll be aware you just washed your face.
I'm not sure I buy the suggestion that "it deposits benzoyl peroxide in your pores" but it has kept all but one significant blemish off my face for about 6 weeks now. Even that one blemish I could blame on my lack of attention to regular cleansing.
It's certainly good stuff. I definately recommend it but don't buy all the advertising pitches. It works but it's only as well as your cleaning habits.
