Extremely Drying and Irritating

I have tried this a couple of times when I have had breakouts, but stopped using it as it is very very drying. Leaves my skin feeling very tight and irritated and a bit itchy. I think it is much better to use a spot treatment or wait the breakout out instead of using this on your whole face.

Tips: You lots and lots of moisturiser if you use this!

Extremely drying

I used this product once and will never be using it again. I have quite oily skin but after one use my skin was extremely dry and cracked and took over a week of using an extremely thick moisturiser to repair itself. It left my skin very painful.

Itchy, Dry Skin :(

After Having my Second baby i completely broke out in acne. It was horrible, so I purchased this product from the supermarket. it was ok for the first day or two days, although I wasn't seeing any change in my skin. after about the forth day of using my skin became very dry, flaky and incredibly itchy (which is that last thing you want on your face) you get a lot of product so It would last a while, but i wont be using this again.

Not For Sensitive Skin

I tried this product and while it did clear up my skin of zits it was also very harsh on my sensitive skin and gave me a rash after about a week of using it every evening. If you have skin that can tolerate a harsher product it is effective at eliminating zits. Not recommended for anyone with sensitive skin or allergies to salicylic acid.

Hurts!

I tried this thinking it would make have that nice clear fresh skin like on the adds. However I was largely disappointed as it completely dried out my skin until it burned, after 1 was. I felt my skin stinging, and I don't have very sensitive skin. It felt like there was some really harsh chemical's in this and it didn't do anything about my acne either. Do not buy.

Very drying!

This product dried out my skin no end. I skin felt awfully tight and dry after using this. I did like how it foamed when it came out, but when something foams i always feel like its giving me a good clean. For the price, i can get many other skin care items that just work better for my skin.

Don't use this

I used this once a day because twice a day dried my skin to much. Growing up I never had any problems with dryness until I used this product. It dried the skin around my nose so had its scared now. I would never recommend this

Heavy duty - too drying

With the promising television advertisements for this brand we see today, I tend to shake my head and raise my eyebrows. I was still in high school when I bought this product and boy was I excited! Ohhhhh to have a flawless complexion - little did I know that those with sensitive skin shouldn't use the product.

I have oily sensitive skin so naturally I saw "oil-free" and didn't think of much else when purchasing. It comes in simple sturdy packaging with a pump dispenser which is great just don't press it right to the bottom because you'll dispense more than you need. It's a semi-runny gel-like consistency that doesn't lather up too much. There is a light fresh soapy fragrance which is gentle on the nose.

I wet my face and then apply a small amount of product and massage it well. Once done, I rinse it off thoroughly with cold water and pat it dry. It left my skin feeling clean and renewed. When I used this product I skipped toning because I just felt that there was slight stinging so I just went in with moisturiser.

I used this twice a day initially but soon changed it to every second day when I noticed that my skin was not reacting too well to it. By day 7 the small breakouts became worse so I gave my skin a break for 2 days and started back up again. Unfortunately I started to develop dry painful patches (yes on my oily face!) and since I saw no improvement I discontinued using the product entirely.

Ouch!

Upon first using this it burnt my face so badly! Turned it into a red irritated mess. Would definately not recommend for sensitive skin. I have not had much luck with neutrogena products. They all just seem far too harsh for my skin but this was definately the worst.

Too drying and strong

I used this product awhile ago, It was easy to use and had a smooth texture.The smell wasn't pleasant very artificial.I personally found this product to be to strong for my skin and it made my skin dry and flaky in some areas. This is why I would not be likely to use it agin but did find that it helped to clear my skin up.

Tips: Use with a moisturiser
