!!!!! THE BEST ACNE CLEANSER I'VE EVER USED !!!!!
LADIES!
THIS IS SERIOUSLY THE BEST ACNE FACIAL CLEANSER I'VE *EVER* USED IN MY LIFE!
I have tried NUMBEROUS acne facial washes and cleasnsers since I was in high school, I NEVER found of that worked so well, and not be prescription! I've used every single type of acne kit, proactive, murad, philosophy, neutrogena, clean and clear, etc....
I've used this acne wash for almost a year now, and my skin has improved drastically. I barely break out now, (and I used to ALWAYS EVERY HAVE AT THE LEAST 4 PIMPLES ON MY FACE AT ALL TIMES) and I have ZERO FOR WEEKS AT THE VERY LEAST. If I do have a pimple now, it's minor, and goes away within 3 days.
Seriously ladies, BUY THIS ACNE CLEANSER!
I'm never giving this cleanser up. And after using it constantly for about a year, my skin hasn't gotten used to the cleanser and resorted to getting pimples and acne again like some cleansers do. You cannot go wrong with this! It's ridic how great it is!!! :-D!!!

LOVE LOVE
WHAT!? this product is absolutely INCREDIBLE!
Little about my skin: I have had (bad) cystic acne for about two years now. Not only that but I also had those tiny little white bumps all over my cheeks so.. it was a mess. Being 23 with cystic acne is horrible (eh.. cystic acne at any age is horrible). But with my career starting and dating it's just not ma thing. I have tried everything from all the pills and topical creams my Dermatologist prescribed me, birth control, expensive skin care treatments, seeing a reflexologist, etc - nothing NOTHING was improving!
I saw this product and was like, sure. $15 bucks? That is CHEAP compared to the acne skin care products I use. So i grabbed this with the Rose Toner. The first time I used it I was super impressed how it reduced the redness! I woke up the next morning and the inflammation went down quite a bit. After a week my breakouts were greatly reduced:) I have used it for over a month now and my breakouts are down to nothing. Granted, I still have a zit pop up here and there and all the red marks from my breakouts before. miracle worker.
Now.. I wont give FULL credit to this product for clearing up my skin. I strongly believe that our acne is telling us something (check out acne face maps). I believe that part of the reason i continued to break out was from all the stress of medication i was throwing at my body. So, I am no dermatologist by any means and cannot tell you whats right for you.. but just take a moment to listen to your body. What does your body need?! For me, I wake up every morning and make a glass of celery juice haha yes it was totally disgusting at first. But I know that this is what my body needed - I could feel an energy difference and my skin showed it! Ever since i started eating healthy, drinking my celery juice, and using this product... it's been amazing. I cried the other night just of gratitude.

Love it
Upon seeing this bottle one morning, my husband said, "but honey, you don't have acne." Exactly.

Better than prescription
I love this! It is the first thing I have found that really clears up my skin. I've tried everything from over the counter to prescription. This is awesome and at a perfect price point! I love it!

The only thing that has helped
I have dealt with acne for years. I have tried EVERYTHING and this is the only thing that seems to help with my acne. I use it morning and night along with a lot of other Mario badescu products. I have been using it for probably 5 years.
