Deep Cleansing Cream

I'm so grateful to Burt's Bees for creating this wonderful product. It's become part of my daily routine. This is THE best cleanser I have ever used. I have sensitive skin that can become dried out pretty easily by harsh cleansers. I know that being a teenager, but without suffering from acne, and not needing any anti-aging products, it has been hard to find a cleanser that meets my needs. This absolutely fits the bill. Sometimes, I feel like my makeup can irritate my skin, and when I wash my face with this, it actually leaves my skin clean, soothed, and MORE hydrated than it was before. I can't even tell you the difference I notice in my skin if I fall asleep without washing my makeup off and using this cleanser. It's absolutely fabulous. (Tip: I also find the Clean and Clear Soft moisturizers to be the absolute best moisturizers for skin like mine. Here are links to them: Clean & Clear Night Soft Oil-Free Moisturizer, 4-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 2) and Clean & Clear Soft Oil-Free Day Moisturizer, SPF 15 4 oz (113.4 g). Sadly, they've been discontinued, but that's why we have Amazon!) Face feels clean after use but not dried out. Truly a gentle but effective cleanser.Gives a deep clean feeling. Doesn't take much, so each one lasts a long time.

Aveeno Active Naturals Ultra Calming Foaming Cleanser, Fragrance-Free, 6 Ounce Bottle

I use their Positively Radiant line and give it 5 plus stars. It works miracles for my skin and the problems I have. My comment here is that when you have problem skin different products work for different people. If this one does not work for you don't give up on Aveeno. Try the Positively Radiant. All their products are hypoallergenic and oil/soap free so just find the right one for you.

Well I have suffered most my life with acne and have probably tried every face wash known to man.The last product I tried from another well known company made me have a severe reaction where I broke out in a horrible itchy rash all over my face. After going to see the dermatologist she recommended trying one of aveenos natural products that did not have any salycic acid or benzoyl peroxide in it.Well I decided to try this one and im so glad I did. It is the perfect face wash!! Its not over moisterizing and not over drying and my face has reacted amazing to it. I have been using this for over 6 months now and my acne has done a complete turn around. I still get occasional pimples but nothing like before. I highly recommend to anyone with any kind of skin issues. I hope they never stop making this because I dont know what I would do!! My skin has been breaking out horribly for awhile now and not getting better, I have tried every product out there (including proactive) and my skin would get worse. I even tried to go simple and just use Dove soap no good for me either. I also tried philosophy products and mineral makeup. Most of the products that I was using had some sort of 'acid' in them too, like salicylic acid, which I thought would help but only made my problem worse. I even considered that it was dietary because I couldn't figure out my skin problem at all! I tried giving up coffee, dairy etc., none of which helped.Finally,(because my skin was broken out, red and irritated) I bought this facial wash, as well as the calming day/night cream...it has been LESS than two weeks and my skin looks amazing! So, if you have tried everything for breakouts, try this out next, you may realized that your skin just needs to be 'calmed.'

I switched from Neutrogena Pore Refining Cleanser to the Aveeno after I read on WebMD that they felt it was the best facial cleanser for sensitive skin. I tend to have mostly dry, though I get greasy in the T-zone, and sensitive skin. It gets red, tight, and dry if I use harsh soaps.The Aveeno Active Naturals is a very mild and easy to use cleanser. The foaming action feels good and creates a nice lather. The best part is that it rinses off very easily and completely. Which is a boon for dry sensitive skin.
The only qualms I have about this cleanser is that it doesn't seem to last as long as the Neutrogena and the price is a bit high.
All in all... it's expensive, but worth it.

I came across this years ago, at a store, but the product is japanese and thus harder to find than say, an Olay or Neutrogena cleanser. But this is the best face wash i've ever tried. I have breakout prone skin and this does a way better job cleansing than specific acne treatment face washes. It foams up so a little (size of penny or even smaller) goes a LONG way. It leaves your face so scrubbed and clean and fresh. From this girl, with the combination, acne prone skin, i'd recommend this wash!I bought this in conjunction with the Moisturizer. This foam is one of the most thorough I have tried to clean my oily skin: it removes all make up, leaves the skin soft and not stripped, and smells like a neutral soap. I have a very oily skin and live in a very humid climate but ever since I started using this foam and its moisturizer I have had almost NO breakout. This product is amazing. It was the balancing product I was looking for to give some rest to my overstripped, overcured (with benzol peroxyde) skin. At last!Monday, July 21, 2014

Buy Specific Beauty Skin Brightening Serum 0.5 fl oz. Now
I was getting a bit annoyed with a shrapnel scar, so I looked into scar-fading creams. My doctor prescribed a harsh, chemical peel that would have wrecked my melatonin-rich skin. On my search for more natural alternatives, I came across this serum. It feels great going on. I did notice a few little bumps from irritation, but nothing too crazy. Other creams and serums usually feel heavy and bring out acne since my skin naturally over-produces sebum. Anyway, after six months without any difference, I think can safely say this was did not work for me. Maybe it works for others, but it will be back to the drawing board for me.Read Best Reviews of Specific Beauty Skin Brightening Serum 0.5 fl oz. Here

Pert Plus So Fine, 2 In 1 Shampoo Plus Conditioner

Pert has done this in the past. Decades ago they changed their shampoo that did a really good job of cutting the grease to one like this (that keeps the grease in your hair). I quit using their shampoo for ten to twenty years and then tried them again. They had come back with something that worked but now they can't help themselves and again discontinued the stuff that actually cleans my hair. I guess I'll come back in a few decades to see if they changed their formula back.

Niapads

First, I want to express how excited I was about receiving this particular product because I've recently given up on spending THOUSANDS on dermatologist and aesthetician bills, prescription medications, cosmetic procedures, and expensive skin care products. Additionally, I recently discovered why most products just didn't seem to work for me irritating ingredients. So after researching every single ingredient in all of my Rx, skin care and hair car products, I had to toss out 98% of them. Additionally, I've been reading about more natural alternatives and ingredients that are equally beneficial for acne without all the harsh irritating effects. So again, I was especially excited to receive this product as I believed it contained a decent concentration level of vitamin B or at the very least enough of it WITHOUT any counterproductive ingredients.
Well so I thought...
Immediately after opening my package, I zoomed in on the ingredients and was very much disappointed. This product contains Sodium Lauryl Sulfate which is an ingredient used for its "lathering" effects. This stuff is in most skin care products, shampoos, clothing, and dish washing detergents. Well the problem is SLS "is one of the most irritating cleansing agents used in skin-care products" according to the European Journal of Dermatology and the American Journal of Contact Dermatitis. Sure some folks enjoy a nice lather and actually feel as though their skin isn't properly cleansed without it but the truth is that lather has nothing to do with cleansing. Sure some lathering cleanser removes excess oils but doesn't actually cleanse the skin. I have used many Neutrogena products (which are the WORST) that work up a good lather, only afterwards to use a toner, witch-hazel or alcohol and find globs of dirt and dead skin on the cotton swab.
To put SLS irritating effects in perspective, I switched to a shampoo containing zero sodium products and my seborrheic dermatitis is under control and my acne even showed some improvement. The shampoo also contains Tea Tree Oil which may have also contributed to my skin improvements. So, I knew I was on the right track with eliminating certain ingredients and incorporating more natural ones like the Tea Tree and Vitamin B3, to name a few.
Anyhow... I proceeded to use this product in spite of what I knew because I was so anxious to see the results of what the Vitamin B3 could deliver. Plus, I had two very large active nodule pimples near my temple that I was trying to rid myself of ASAP (this is actually an improvement considering prior to revamping my products regimen, I had 4 to 5 on any given day). The product instructions provided an alternate process to treat inflamed, nodule, and/or cystic type of acne which actually is pretty effective. It called for cutting out a small (smaller than thumb tip) corner of the pad, to slightly wet it and place on the pimple until dried, and then removing the pad and rinse. My nodule pimples were gone in 1.5 days which is an all time record. Not even injections from the dermatologist improved my large nodule pimples that quickly. For this reason alone is why I gave this product 3 stars!
So after seeing these results, I thought for sure I could suck up the irritating effects of SLS if the vitamin B3 could improve my acne that quickly. Well, this pad has so much lathering ingredients in it that I had to cut it in half (original size is about 2 x 3 inch rectangle flat, textured swab) which is already very small. It still produced a rich lather and after rinsing my face, I had a white film/residue on my face. Whether this is the SLS or Vitamin B3, I have no idea but I suspect it's the SLS because it broke me out with a gazillion small closed comedones over 90% of my face. However, zero nodule or cystic acne.
Simply, I would recommend this product for spot treatment, especially for nodule/cystic type acne. I would not recommend using this as a facial cleansing and especially not using it twice a day as recommended by the manufacturer. What would be a blast is if the manufacturer would update their ingredients to exclude the SLS and other sodium ingredients within it. Then I bet this stuff would fly off the shelves! And I would certainly give it a 5 star but for now, I think 3 is appropriate.
Extremely Irritating Ingredients:
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Sodium Coco Sulfate
Lavender OilMy 17-year-old son had had a pretty bad case of standard teenage acne vulgaris for a couple of years. It wasn't the sort of awful acne that you know will result in lifelong pockmarks, but he always had a fair number of angry looking pimples at any one time. He'd gone through the standard over-the-counter medications, as well as some prescription lotions, ointments, and oral antibiotics. Nothing seemed to do much good, and a friend of my wife suggested Accutane -an expensive and very powerful oral retinoid with some horrendous potential side-effects (depression, liver damage, etc.). Since payment for the Accutane (at $400/month + frequent visits to the dermatologist to monitor side effects) would have come out of my pocket, and since my son was very reluctant to take the product, I decided to do some research before jumping in. In the course of that research I came across positive study info about the successful use of topical nicotinamide (also called niacinamide, and related to Vitamin B3 or niacin) in treating acne.
I figured this non-prescription treatment might be worth a shot before resorting to Accutane, but when I searched on Amazon, nearly all the niacinamide products were oral (about which I'd read nothing) and the few available niacinamide gels or ointments were being marketed as anti-aging, anti-wrinkle products, not acne treatments. The sole exception was Niapads, which had lots of positive Amazon reviews, although a majority of these reviews seemed to deal with adult acne rather than the more standard teenage variety my son was suffering from. So I placed an order, which was very promptly filled and delivered (this company has a very high level of customer service, with same-day or next-day shipping on every order I've placed thus far).
At first my son didn't really like the Niapads. He didn't care for the perfumed smell (he's a 17-year-old boy) and he found they irritated his face. Based on the Amazon reviews I'd read (several of which noted the same initial reactions), I urged him to keep using them for the full month, and he was willing to give it his best shot in order to avoid the Accutane. At the end of the month, he asked me to go ahead and order another pack -the irritation had subsided, he'd gotten used to the smell, and though his acne was still there, it didn't seem quite as "angry" as it had a month earlier.
It's been about 6 months now and my son's skin looks the best it has in years. Yes, he will occasionally get a pimple, but he no longer has those outbreaks that are what I think of as acne. His face looks clean and clear. So all in all, I would recommend Niapads without any hesitation.I'm currently on my second set of Niapads. I'm almost 30 with an oily, acne-prone complexion that gets worse depending on my hormonal cycle. I only use one Niapad a day and not the two that they recommend (but I will start using 2/day now). My acne break outs have been greatly reduced and my skin is much softer. I still break out, but I sleep with either side of my face against a pillow every night (it's hard to break that habit).
I read another review that mentioned applying the Niapad at night and NOT rinsing it off, I followed that advice and really think it made a difference. The very first night I used this product I had 3 fairly big pimples and 1 cystic-type one, the next morning they had all come to a 'head' and by the morning after that they were well on their way to clearing up, which would normally have been at least another week. I have accepted that I will never have a perfect complexion but Niapads do make a difference.

I bought this for a relative of mine who suffers from bad body acne on his arm. He tried the product out and in one week we noticed a HUGE difference. Half of the acne was gone.I would recommend this product to anyone suffering from body acne. However his body acne was a result from taking creatine (a supplement enhancement for the gym). I am not sure if this would work for random breakouts.

I have used Cetaphil for many years. It's "gentle" and was once recommended to me by a dermatologist. What I didn't like about it was that it never really took my makeup off well. Well, one day, I asked my friend (who has a glowing complexion) what she uses to wash her face with and she recommended this Novena product. I love it! It smells great and doesn't have a lot of chemicals that I try to stay away from. And no, I am not pregnant and do not plan to have any more children! I use this product every night to wash off my makeup and then I use the Cetaphil in the mornings.The Organic Fruit Face Wash does come out quite a bit when you open the cap and squeeze gently. It lathers so well, that I really only need a drop. So, Using small scissors, I made the smallest cut at the very top (right below the crimped edge on top) and squeeze just what I need out. It's perfect and will allow this product to last much longer!

Clearasil Daily Face Wash, Oil Free 6.5 oz (184 g)

As I progressed to cream cleansers, my acne also progresses to be more adult like (chin and cheeks) rather than teenage acne (forehead and nose). Little did I know, adult acne responds better to a cream cleanser in the first place!
After using various cleansers from the leading brands in facial care, I decided to invest in Clearasil's Daily Wash after all the Clearasil products underwent a sophisticated facelift which I felt quite fitting as as these products are not just for adolescents.
Unlike some cream cleansers, Clearasil's daily wash is not greasy or oily feeling, though it may feel a bit stiff for some. It really stays on my face until I rinse it off and my face feels deep-down-clean after using it.
It also really seems to help clear up my acne, although my skin becomes to immune to products after using them for a while, so I still switch periodically.
Better yet, it doesn't have the harsh chemical scent like many cleansers do.
Overall this is a great product which works well for adult blemishes.I have dry skin, so was thrilled to see this did nothing to dry my skin, but dry up the problems. I never had acne has a teen, but as an adult I had the occasional bouts due to allergies. With my dry skin this seems to be a headache to control. I got this because I had been through everything Olay, Revson and several other lines, paying small fortunes and nothing helped.
I used this and saw results first time. There is a "tightening" of the pores on first use. My skin looked polished. All blemishes vanished, and my skin was so soft. Smooth like a baby's, not oiling. Second day was even better. Within three days everything was under control and boy am I sold on this.

I love it! It smells good.. yes, it's creamy but it's refreshing and it WORKS.
