Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne and Redness Facial Cleanser, Soothing Face Wash with Salicylic Acid Acne Medicine, Aloe, and Chamomile to Reduce Facial Redness, 6 fl. oz

I love this product! It is helping to clear up my acne. My complexion is looking so much better. People ask me what I use as my skin is glowing. The aloe and chamomile is soothing my skin and my pimples are going away! Most of all it doesn't dry out my skin. The scent is light and clean. This item I guess has become popular as it is selling out fast. It's so popular now that it's sold out on the actual Neutrogena site and very hard to find on Amazon and when you do find it the price is very much higher. But the product is great and works! This is my new go too! I'm glad my Fiancé recommended this product to me as he uses it too.

I bought this for my teenage son, who has some acne and blackheads, redness etc. This cleanser is really working, Within a week I see a marked improvement in his skin, most of the blackheads are GONE and the redness is gone as well. I have always trusted Neutrogena but this cleanser really exceeeds expectation. He is using this once a day, at night right now, I think twice a day would be too harsh and it does have a scent so this is probably not for those with sensitive skin. It has 2% salicylic acid, so be aware of that, but it has aloe and chamolmile too, and the pump bottle is perfect for a boy who does not want to fuss with a tube. Overall its a good product.

My skin is always changing and sometimes I need a little extra kick to to subdue the overproduction of oil and/or the appearance of blackheads. Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne face washes do just that for me. Salicylic acid is the active ingredient at 2% strength, so most dermatologists recommend this be used from 2x per week to, at most, every other day. Light use is recommended because salycyclic acid is known to irritate the skin and the irritation can present as redness which this facewash aims to prevent, itchiness, dryness, etc. I have tried the orange-colored original Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne face wash and the pink/grapefruit Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne face wash, and to be quite honest I actually find the scent of this green bottle to be more attractive and subtle than the others. There are a few reviews stating the smell is too strong and candy-like, but I didn't find the scent to be at all aggressive.

NOTE: This product is not a magic pill. If you suffer from severe psoriasis, only a licensed dermatologist can diagnose and treat your specific condition. Don't expect one product to cure all your problems! Experiment until you find the right one.For me, this is it. I had been using the original Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash, and careful application all but cured my facial acne. However, the original formula left my skin feeling dry and noticeably red and flaky, even after moisturizing. I could feel a mild burning and tingling sensation when applying it and would hurry to rinse it off immediately. With the soothing facial cleanser, all that has gone away - no acne, and without the side effects. My skin looks clear and healthy. Best of both worlds!For best results, take half a pump in your hands while in the shower or at the sink. Get your (CLEAN!) hands wet and lather up until you have a handful of foam, then spread the foamy face wash in the problem area. Immediately rinse off as fast as you put it on. You might need to follow up with a facial moisturizer. No cracking, flaking, or redness, and best of all no acne!

When I first started using this product, I noticed results after the first one or two uses. I have oily skin, so this product definitely helps with drying my face, because it dries my skin out. It's not SO SO SO dry that it's uncomfortable, but it is on the dry side so beware if you already have dry skin. Anyway, yes, as I was saying, it does work. It gradually reduces size of pimples and such, and removes redness. I no longer use the product alone, as I tend to pair it with the Aria Starr Beauty dead sea mud mask. That paired with this product is amazing! My skin is so soft, it's so much clearer than before, and redness/scars are at a bare minimum. Of course, when you're not consistent with washing your face, the acne and stuff will come back, so you have to keep up with daily washes. I recommend this for anyone looking for a good acne wash!

I have super sensitive skin and have acne. I was on the hunt for a gentle cleanser to help with my acne. I use Neutrogena makeup and it works great for my skin. The ingredient list for this face wash is okay but not the best. It has fragrance in it and it caused me to break out and caused a rash on my neck. It took a few days to go away. My sister uses it now and she likes it and has normal skin. I would use it only if you don't have sensitive skin.

I’ve bought about 5 bottles over the last year, this stuff is an amazing addition to you regime. Wow. Removed the dead cells when used with a facial brush. I have little electronic proactiv facial brush and this cleaner and the brush is such an important part of my regime. Morning AND night. If my face gets too dry, I drop down to once that day. It’s important to apply sunscreen after this cleaner and whatever creams and toners. Amazinggggg cleanser especially for the price!

I've used this stuff for many years. I use it every single day in the shower. I have had horrible acne since 6th grade and had to go to a dermatologist as I got older. This was something my doctor recommended to me because my acne was so red against my very pale face. This stuff helped so much. Of course I'm taking a lot of medication and using other washes as well to fight the acne, but I feel like this wash fits perfectly into my acne killing army. If I don't wake up and wash my face immediately with this stuff then I start getting pimples. This wash cleans my face great and if I ever have a bunch of pimples for some reason I just let it sit on m y face a little longer before rinsing it off. I've been going to my doctor for 7 years and fighting acne for 10. My face, back, shoulders, and chest are finally clear and this wash was one of the reasons my face is clear. I would recommend this face wash to anyone.
