Not great, made me break out. I think it has too many chemicals and what not. I would recommend going for something more gentle and scent free. Not my first choice.

Packaging is appealing to the eye. Ingredients are clean as well as a clean scent. It’s a jell like consistency. Makes my face feel soft for a long time.

While I always love oil free ingredients, that’s about the best this gets. It smells great and leaves my face feeling clean, but it doesn’t do anything for acne despite being labeled as an acne wash.

I have been using this wash for 20 years, nothing has been more effective for removing makeup and preventing acne without drying. I have combination skin and I have yet to find another product that is effective at cleansing without drying for a reasonable price point.

This face wash makes my face feel extremely clean. It can have you feeling a little dry but add some moisturizer is an easy fix. I like to feel the dirt coming off my face and this does it.

I used this product and i broke out horribly. It burned my skin I had to constantly rub ice on my face all day and apply frozen towels. It has a nice smell and if your skin isn’t as sensitive as mine it may work better it’s just not that good.

I've been using Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash for a few weeks now, and overall, I'm impressed. The 2% salicylic acid really helps keep my breakouts under control, especially around my chin and forehead. It’s a gentle foaming formula that doesn’t leave my skin feeling overly dry or tight like some other acne cleansers do. What I like most is that it feels clean and refreshing without being harsh. I have combination skin, and this manages oil well without irritating the drier areas. The scent is subtle and clean—not too strong or medicinal. My only minor complaint is that it can be a little drying if I use it twice a day, especially in the winter months. I’d recommend following up with a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer to keep your skin balanced. **Pros:** ✔ Helps prevent and treat breakouts ✔ Non-comedogenic and oil-free ✔ Leaves skin feeling clean and fresh ✔ Affordable and easy to find **Cons:** ➖ Can be a bit drying with frequent use ➖ Might not be strong enough for severe acne Overall, it's a solid, dependable face wash for anyone dealing with mild to moderate acne. I'd definitely repurchase!

Finding a skincare product that checks all the boxes and stays within budget isn’t always easy — but this one is a total gem. Let’s start with the price: super affordable for the quality it delivers. It proves you don’t have to spend a fortune for real results. The packaging is sleek and well-designed, with a minimal but elegant look that feels more luxurious than its price tag. It’s the kind of product you’d love having on display. The scent is light and refreshing — not too strong, just the perfect hint of something clean and soothing. It enhances the experience without overwhelming your senses. When it comes to ingredients, I was impressed to see a blend of skin-friendly elements like [insert ingredient — e.g. aloe, niacinamide, or green tea], which are known for their calming and hydrating properties. As for effectiveness, it truly delivers — my skin felt smoother, more hydrated, and looked noticeably healthier after just a few uses. This one’s officially earned a permanent spot in my routine. 🌿
Buy It! Your skin will thank you

I have really bad acne and super sensitive skin but this product smells good, leaves me skin feeling super clean, and reduces break outs! Good packaging, trustworthy ingredients, and not a rough texture on my skin.
