I got this about 1.5 months ago from my local Kroger's for $7, after my long-time HG Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Cleanser (2% salicylic acid) ran out. I had decided to try something that wasn't as abrasive like the one with the salicylic acid, especially since I have other things in my routine that can help with that as well.
My first impressions? It seemed like it basically did nothing.
The instructions say to pump it 1-2 times and gently massage it onto your face. However, I needed about 3 or even 4 pumps to properly spread enough onto my face. I waited for about 10 sec, then washed it all off.
Results? It seemed like it basically did nothing. Like, literally. My face felt just as oily in the morning after using this as it did before.
It does seem to be gentle on the face though. It doesn't have any smell per-se, so I would think it isn't a shabby choice for people with sensitive skin who don't have acne. However, for people like me who do get acne, it is pretty useless.
Right now, I'm just trying to use it up. I think what I'm going to do is just use it in combination with my Origins Checks and Balances wash, and see what happens. So far, it seems like I'm still breaking out along my forehead line, although that might have to do with stress and environment as well.
We'll see.
Who would I think it would be good for? People with sensitive skin who don't have acne, who don't have oily skin, just have normal skin type.
Who do I think it would NOT be good for? Just about everyone else. Especially people with acne.
Would I repurchase this? Definitely not. Although it definitely is a good bargain for people who have the skin type that this would be suited for.
That's my opinion of it. Have you guys/gals every tried this? If so, what did you think of it? Any other things you guys/gals might suggest I try for a facial cleanser? Leave a comment!
