I have used every acne medication out there from prescription grade to over the counter and nothing ever really seemed to work. I have used Oxy a few times and have loved it each time but kept searching for something that smelled a little better. After much searching and no results I went back to the Oxy. It clears my skin up in a matter of days (I use the spot treatment with it) and with regular use, keeps the acne away!
The only thing that bothered me- at first- was the dryness, but once my skin got used to the wash it stopped becoming dry and itchy when I used it. The only other thing I could think of would be to make the product a little thicker because it runs out of the bottle quickly.

I have combination skin (oily t-zone and a little bit of dryness on the cheeks and around my eyes.) I've been breaking out, probably because I switched birth control pills to a lower estrogen dose. Anyways, I was in search of something to help my acne. I used this for awhile (only on my t-zone) and it seemed to work, but it dried out my eyelids and cheeks even though I didn't wash that area with Oxy (probably the soapy run-off.) I had to use aquaphor on my eyelids because the skin became so dry and bright red. I had to smear a heavy moisturizer on my entire face even though I've never had to do that before. The wash worked pretty well but having to deal with dry, flaky skin for me wasn't worth it so I stopped using the product. If your skin is super oily and doesn't get irritated I'm sure this will work for you, but if you have even regular to dry skin, keep away from this it will make you flake.

Comments about OXY Daily Wash Acne Treatment, Maximum Strength, 6 oz:

Benzoyl Peroxide has always been really harsh on my skin, and I usually try to use something that isn't so harsh. I stopped using this product while my face was clear, and started washing my face with St. Ives Apricot Cleanser for acne-prone skin. Within a month, my skin was back to the way it was-oily and covered with pimples. This is the only thing that works for me, and if you're worried about dryness, just use a moisturizer. I use St. Ives Apricot Scrub to exfoilate, and then this amazing wash afterwards, and my skin is glowing and vibrant. This will be the last time I stop using this product again.

Comments about OXY Daily Wash Acne Treatment, Maximum Strength, 6 oz:

The absolute best over-the-counter product for acne I've ever used. I've suffered with bad acne since 17 (I'm now going on 30), and I've been on everything from Accutane, Proactiv, Retin-A, Benzamycin, Duac etc. Dermatologists and prescription medicines become pricey and a headache after a while. I can't recommend this product enough. It's a must-have.

Comments about OXY Daily Wash Acne Treatment, Maximum Strength, 6 oz:

For the past 3 years I had bad, bad, bad acne! I tried every product on the market. One morning on the news I saw that they were comparing this Oxy daily wash to Proactiv. And pretty much they had the same ingredients, but the only difference were the price. Anyway, I gave it a try and my face started to clear up. I think in order for this product to work, you must also use it Oxy Daily Cleansing Pads and Oxy Lotion. Now I don't have oily skin, and my face is clear.

Comments about OXY Daily Wash Acne Treatment, Maximum Strength, 6 oz:

This stuff is amazing!!! I wish I could give it more than 5 stars!! I am 33, and have had oily/acne prone skin since I turned 13. I have tried everything on this planet for it, including Proactiv, Accutane, Retin A, Differin, etc. I got so fed up with the expensive costs of seeing dermatologist and prescription medications with mere results that I just stopped taking them. Then I read the reviews for this, and decided to try it. WHAT TOOK ME SO LONG?!! If it had not been for the reviews on this site, I would never had known what a great product this was. The first night I used it, when I woke up the next morning I could already see a difference. I also use the vanishing lotion in the morning and at night, and the combination is unbelievable. Please try it if you suffer from acne! Oxy is more than a keeper...it's a life-saver and self-esteem booster!

Comments about OXY Daily Wash Acne Treatment, Maximum Strength, 6 oz:

This product seems to work well, and has not over-dried my skin. It does seem to noticeably shrink my pores and help prevent breakouts. However, the warning that it may bleach hair or dyed fabrics is important. It has completely bleached every towel that I have come in contact with.

Bought this for my husband who has oily skin, and it works! His skin is much drier now. In the morning when he wakes up, his skin less oily than mine. This product might be a little too harsh for long term usage, but it works short term.

Comments about OXY Daily Wash Acne Treatment, Maximum Strength, 6 oz:

What took me so long? I was using University Medical, Proactiv, Bioterm, Sekkisei, Aurascience-- you name it! This stuff helps treating my existing pimples in a matter of days... but I can see and feel the results within hours after washing my face! I use this wash, followed by 2% salicylic acid treatment pads, a soothing toner for my eye and neck area ( I like Nivea Visage Moisturizing Toner) a bit of lac-hydrin five to moisturize my face, and some 10% benzoyl peroxide spot treatment. This plan works for me because I have a follicle disorder. DO NOT USE IF YOU HAVE SUPER SENSITIVE SKIN!!

Comments about OXY Daily Wash Acne Treatment, Maximum Strength, 6 oz:

I've been using this product for about 9 years now (it used to come in pink bottles). I got lucky because it was one of the first things I tried, and has worked like a charm for me since. I just hate running out of it, because within a week the acne is back without it.
I used to be able to buy it in a store near me, then they discontinued it there, and I ended up driving 1 hour to the closest location with it I could find. I actually ended up stocking boxes of this stuff, but ran out eventually. Luckily drugstore keeps offering it.

Comments about OXY Daily Wash Acne Treatment, Maximum Strength, 6 oz:

Works wonderfully - tried prescribed medication from internal and external, but this has been consistent in effectiveness. Doesn't dry out my skin, mild medicinal fragrance, and now increasingly difficult to find in stores. Happy that drugstore.com carries this. Also tried the Oxy "Chill" line, and find that it doesn't lather up as well as this.
