Retinol Exfoliating Cleanser, 8 Ounce

This is the best acne wash I have ever used. I have tried everything, and this works better than anything else (Proactive, Neutrogena, etc). The retinol works great for my skin, and I feel really clean after I wash my face, and not dried out. Most other products have benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid as the effective ingredient. I have much less acne and cystic acne breakouts using this face wash. It's also a great value- it lasts a long time. I use it together with my Clarisonic face brush for an even deeper clean. Highly recommend.

Just purchased this product after my esthetician recommended getting a cleanser that contained retinol. I’ve only used this a couple times and can already see pore tightening, mild brightening of the tome and a slightly smoother texture to my face. Already using the Obagi Nu Derm line for more serious issues but alternating with this cleanser should help speed things up in the way of improvement. It’s a somewhat thin consistency but does well if using your hands or even with a Clarisonic face brush. The smell is nice and fresh. The exfoliation beads feel great and aren’t too abrasive. I haven’t experienced a drying effect but I have pretty oily skin so I may be less apt to notice that. It seems a little goes a long way so I think this size bottle is fantastic for the price. I’ve read other reviews stating it didn’t work for them and I agree it may be hit and miss depending on your skin type but overall I think it can’t hurt to try it.

Very drying!

I've been familiar with this line for many many years and I believe the manufacturer, Ermis labs, is no longer in business. This packaging is from several years ago. I'm not confident what's being sold is still within it's "use by" dates. Just a heads up to fellow buyers. Provided is it indeed still effective, it is a fantastic product...but knowing it could be several years old even though I bought it two days ago is sketchy. No expiration date but does have a lot number - Ermis Labs doesn't seem to exist anymore for me to verify the bottling dates.

I did not notice a difference in my face after using this for a long period of time however my cousin it helped clear her face up a lot so I think it all depends on the person

This has been my favorite cleanser for a few years now. It is gentle yet clears my adult acne. It also helps with acne scares and sun spots. It does not over dry and seems to work within a week or so at clearing up my face. I use it with the Coral Actives spot cleanser and the lotion, and the combo makes me look much younger! While I love buying it through Amazon, I am disappointed as they use to sell it at Discount Drug Mart but no longer carry it. Seeing as how it works great, I will gladly pay a few extra dollars for it through Amazon.

I have adult acne at 53. I’ve used script Retinoids, tried just about everything known to man. I read the reviews and decided that I would give it a try. I’ve been using Coral Actives for less than a week and Hallelujah!!! My redness,blackheads and whiteheads are almost all gone. My face is smoother, less shiny and very clean! As, with everything, what has finally worked for me, may not work for others. Give it a try, whatcha got to lose!!

very clean feel and make nice suds for scrubbing. I don't see any noticeable difference in my skin, but I still like the way my skin feels when using it.
