I bought this 2 weeks ago and instead of helping improve my skin it made it worse by getting A LOT of tiny white on my jawline and neck. First time using Neutrogena and I wanted to love it so bad but it made my skin dry, itchy, and made me break out.

I give this particular product a 3/5 stars because, while it makes my skin squeaky clean, it is a bit harsh and drying. I have combination skin, with oiliness around my nose and on my forehead, so the areas that are typically oily are much more balanced with this wash, but the sides of my nose and around my mouth are noticeably dry and flakey.

I purchased this for my daughter prior to starting school since it says dermatologist recommend. Since having to wear a mask at work all day I decided to use it. My face is in so pain. It is dry red and seems to have a chemical burn. It has been 3 days with no relief. I am hoping it will heal soon. My husband also is having extreme dryness as well.

I originally bought this face wash for my daughter, who has just begun experiencing her first blemishes. I started using it as my evening face wash about a week ago, and the difference i have noticed in my own skin is already INCREDIBLE. For the past few years, my skin has been the bane of my existence. Seriously. I was putting on layers of foundation and powder every morning (concealer, foundation, powder, foundation, powder - not kidding.) and I could still see the flaws in my skin. Now, my skin is still by no means perfect, but the improvement this product has made on my skin just absolutely blows me away. I've had no problems with the dryness that some people have mentioned, but of course, I do use it just before bed (and before putting on my night time facial moisturizer) so maybe that's why. I honestly don't get the complaints about the scent. It just smells like soap - just simple, and clean. No frou-frou stuff. This is definitely a product I will purchase again and continue to use to keep my face in good shape!

I’ve been using this product for like about 3 weeks. The first week my skin was so dry that I had to buy a moisturizer, that help made my skin not that dry. So 2 weeks past and my skin got worse. Buy a different product! This one will make your skin worse!!!

My first time buying anything Neutrogena and my skin is horrible since I used it this product. My skin is red. It burns and itches. I broke out with small little bumps all over my face. Im frustrated how my skin is right now. Never again will I buy anything Neutrogena.

I LOOK LIKE IM A RED CHERRY ! MY SKIN WAS PEELING OFF. SO EMBARRASSING. DO NOT BUY THIS. NEVER EVER BUY THIS. MY SKIN STARTED HAVING FLAKES. OMG I SWEAR ITS LIKE THE TERRIBLE DECISION TO BUY THIS PRODUCT . DO NOT AND IM WARNING YOU !!!!!!! DONT BUY THIS

Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash is a gel-based cleanser with salicylic acid that effectively treats acne without over-drying. It cleanses deeply, prevents breakouts, and helps clear existing pimples with regular use. While it's gentle enough for most skin types, those with sensitive skin might find it slightly drying. It's a budget-friendly, reliable option for acne-prone skin, though it generally works well for mild to moderate acne and may not be strong enough for more severe breakouts.

I bought this product while searching for a great acne facial cleanser. It was #1 in the list. 3 days ago I decided to give it a try. If I would have known that it would irritate, inflame, burn and dry my face I would of never bought it. My mistake was not looking into this product more. Apparently I'm not the only one who has had this problem. I'm typing this while my face it burning, can't even touch it. So disappointed.

For the longest I have had oily skin that really irritates my skin. A co worker advice me to use a oil free washer for my skin. I thought because I was a different skin color it would not work out. I was wrong. It cleared my acne and kept my skin from being dry.
