    Skin felt clean. Used it for way over a decade and has gotten the job done every times. The scent is very nostalgic. It’s citrusy and not overwhelming.

    This cleanser is too strong for my face because my skin is sensitive so I don't use it directly. I’m using it from last few months and it is working well removes residues, and prevents pimples from getting contaminated with bacteria. It is helping my skin to get acne free and remove my excess oil from skin overall it a great product but not for super sensitive skin.

    I'm in my 20's now but I used to use this back when I was a teenager. Didn't it like this face wash then but am enjoying it now. Back then I found it too be too drying for my skin. It still can be extremely drying but luckily I've found the right moisturizer to put on after using this face wash that keeps my skin from feeling super tight and itchy. Would I recommend, heck yeah. It's helped me clear the loads of whiteheads I've been battling with on my chin and nose for majority of my life. My skin is smooth and mostly clear of acne but not completely. For the price and how effective this is at keeping my skin smooth and clear it's deinfelty worth the money. I especially love how affordable this product is. Face washes now a days can range anywhere between 10 to 40 bucks ofc depending on what brand you're using. The fact that this product is only $10 is a good deal in my eyes.

    My holy grail!! I have used this product for the last 10+ years. No matter what else I try I always end up going back to this face wash. Makeup comes right off with the use of this & is not drying afterwards.

    I bought this acne wash for my sensitive SKIN ABOUT a MONTH ago and when I finally used IT, I was dissapointed because it made my face really dry in certain areas. For example, my face was dry near both my cheek areas and scabs started to develop their. it took days for me to get my skin moisture back, thank god I did not use this product twice like I was supposed to and did not break out into hives like some of these previous reviews stated. I did some research on the ingredients of this product and I believe that the ingredient Propylene Glycol is what caused my skin to react the way that it did to this product. My advice would be for any potential future buyers is to do your research on every ingreDIENT in the product that you may buy just as a precaution.

    The only thing I used for years—both as face-wash and to remove makeup. It comes at a fair price and actually worked both taking all my make up off and keeping acne away. I stopped using it and I had an outbreak of blackheads etc. It also doesn’t have any overpowering fragrances so I’d say it’s good for the sensitive type too!

    Neutogena Oil- Free Acne Wash has been an essential part of my daily skin routine for the last 2-3 years. Because, it has a salicylic acid (2%) which has been helping me a lot to reduce my acne and eliminates oil and unclogs pores. It has a nice and light smell. Before, I used it I had very oily skin but now much better so nowadays I use it only once a day. In my experience, it’s really beneficial for oily skin.

    I bought this for my son to use; he found it effective, and his acne has improved. He doesn't like the smell, but that's not a big deal. Also, the price seems high, but it's worth it, if you break it down over the time it's used, it's not that much since you only need to use a pea-sized amount each time. Oil-free, non-comedogenic, residue-free formula rinses clean to unclog pores and treat acne. Definitely, this is the most effective thing my son will never stop using.

    I've been using the Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash and honestly, a game-changer for oily skin! Deep cleans, fights breakouts, and leaves my face feeling fresh-not stripped. Not for the sensitive-skin girlies, but if you're dealing with acne or oil, this one's worth a try!
