I bought this product and its fantastic! I actually can't wait to use it and the end of the day! It makes your skin feel so clean and smooth! I have an apricot scrub I use first, and then I use this, then finally I use some lotion and my skin feels amazing! I was hoping that it would clear up my blackheads, but it hasn't really. But no other pimples or blackheads have popped up since I started using it! There is a great genaric version at Walmart - Equate Creamy Facial Cleanser. It is about 2.97$ about 3 dollars less this this, So since Im cheap I go with the Equate. Both work amazing!

Most people looking for Neutrogena already know what it is. But don't make the mistake of thinking this product here is the same Neutrogena orange liquid in cream form. It's not. They changed the formula on this one. I had the Deep Clean® pump soap that I loved, but when I ran out my drugstore only had this so I got it. This stuff stings the face; in fact, it reminds me of Noxzema. I still had my old bottle and compared the ingredients: For the Deep Clean® Facial Cleanser in the pump bottle: Purified Water, Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate (aids wetting; makes water soak your washcloth easier), Cocamidopropyl Betaine (foam maker), Sodium C12-15 Pareth 15 Sulfonate (another wetting agent), Salicylic Acid (not aspirin, but a chemical exfoliant), Linoleamidopropyl PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate (stabilizing oil), Disodium EDTA (anti-binding agent), Propylene Glycol (no, not antifreeze, but a chemical thickener), FD&C Yellow No 5, DF&C red No. 40, Fragrance. For the Deep Clean® Cream Cleanser: Water, Cetyl Alcohol (a skin-softening wetting agent), PPG-15 Stearyl Ether (emulsifier; helps oil bind with water), Methyl Gluceth-20 (wetting agent), Salicylic Acid, Steareth-21(emulsifier), Gelatin, Steareth-2 (emulsifier), DEA-Cetyl Phosphate (emulsifying wetting agent), Menthol, Polysorbate 60 (thickener), Disodium EDTA, Fragrance. Pay attention to the menthol. That's what's burning my face. Mind you, when I say burning, we're not talking 3rd degree with scars here. It tingles, like Noxzema. The tingle doesn't last. But I personally don't want tingle with my Neutrogena. I've used part of it so I can't return it, and after all, it does clean well, but I'd much rather have the plain, ordinary soap that's in the pump bottle, only without the pump bottle. My recommendation is that if you don't mind the Noxzema feel, but don't actually want to use Nozxema for whatever reason, this is good. If you're like me and hate Noxzema but just want good soap to wash your face with, Deep Clean@ is good, but don't get this form of the product. Find the pump bottle or the bar. And by all means, if you do decide to use it, don't use this on your baby's skin, and when it says avoid contact with eyes, brother they mean it!
