A highly effective cleanser for acne-prone skin. It penetrates deep into pores to help prevent future breakouts by removing dirt, oil and pimple-causing bacteria.It also contains aloe and chamomile extracts to help soothe and condition skin,leaving it deeply cleansed without over-drying or irritation.

Not suitable for dry or sensitive skin.

Okay

I used this product a couple of years ago and I never saw results. I found that it cleansed my face and removed traces of makeup but it didn't combat my acne effectively. I didn't find that it dried out my skin ( I tend to have an oily t-zone) but It didn't feel soft or moisturised afterwards either.

Neutrogena oil free acne wash

I used this years ago when I had blemishes. I cant say that it did wonders for my skin but it is a good general, everyday cheap cleanser that does a good decent job at removing makeup residue.

A bit harsh

I found this cleanser really drying, so not suitable for prolonged use - I've kept it around and use it every now and then during a breakout, but if I use it multiple days in a row, I get dry, flaky patches - gross!

Didn't do anything special

I used to be a great fan of Neutrogena products. However, I find that nothing really in their entire range works for my skin.

This product in particular I had high hopes for. At the time I did have trouble skin so was really hoping this would fix it. Can't say it really did anything at all though.

It dried out my skin and reduced some redness. But I still had breakouts and acne. No different than not using this product (...but I suppose no worse either). It did remove makeup and make my skin feel somewhat clean, but really didn't help with acne at all.

I do like the packaging; it is simple and discreet. It comes in a good size package that lasts a decent while however I am not a fan of the price for a product that does not really do anything at all. It lathered nicely and was a good consistency and is not over-fragranced.

Overall, I would not use this product again simply because it does not work for my skin. It did not help my skin in anyway at all so for me it really was a waste of time and money.

Tips: It dried my skin out quite a bit so definitely moisturise after use.

Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash

i got this as i thought syliactic acid would prevent my breakouts but i found it made my skin extremely dry (i usually have combo-oily skin) and made my face feel uncomfortably tight after use. I wouldn't use this face wash again.

Neutrogena acne wash

I use this for the occasional hormonal break out. I find it a great cleanser that cleans away make up and it does do what it advertises. It takes away the inflammation and clears any spots up. I do only use for a couple of days before going back to my normal cleanser as I find that's all my skin needs. Only real downfall I find that does put me off it a bit is the smell, just not a scent I like in a cleanser. This would be the only reason I would think again before repurchasing as it is great at clearing up the skin.

Gave it away

This product was very drying and really made my skin feel tight.I usually have combination/oily skin but this dried it out so much that my skin actually started flaking. I don't think it smells very nice either unfortunately. I wouldn't buy it again

Was expecting better results.

I have tried this many times and all the times it hasn't helped my acne situation at all. I have horrible acne and even though this is affordable its just another thing that sits in the back of my cupboard. It really tightened my skin and felt yucky.

Terrible product

I would never use this again. I used it once and came out in a huge rash all over my face and neck. My skin stung and felt like it had been burnt. The next day my skin was literally peeling off. I would not recommend this to anyone with acne or sensitive skin

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.
