I have oily acne-prone skin and also have to worry about products being too harsh and accentuating fine lines. I'm in my mid 30's and have the joyous task of dealing with acne/oily skin AND wrinkles. These pads are gentle enough to use every day and they clear my skin and reduce inflammatory redness. I've used many high-end, expensive products and this one beats them all. It doesn't get rid of acne completely but it does clear up existing blemishes by about 80% in my experience. They also seem to keep my pores clear and help prevent breakouts. My 12 year-old son also uses them at night and they work for him, too. Great product and reasonably priced!!

This product was just ok. I think it made me break out worse at first, but then my skin adjusted and it wasn't as bad. Now it just works ok and it does not keep my skin as clear as my Clean & Clear products. I also found that it made my skin feel sticky. I won't buy it again.

    Comments about Stridex Daily Care Acne Pads with Salicylic Acid, Maximum Strength, 55 ea:

    i use these pads twice daily - once in the morning and before bed. i love them because they actually work, unlike other products, be they face washes or other similar pads. they have an inoffensive smell and actually clear my skin. i started noticing effects once i had been using them for a few weeks. i love that they actually work to keep my skin clear!! not drying, but probably best paired with a light moisturizer - i have pretty oily skin. i highly recommend these for everyone who deals with mild to moderate acne - i don't think these alone would help severe acne too much. i still need to do blackhead / whitehead extractions once in awhile, but these definitely keep breakouts at bay!

        I have very oily, sensitive, prone to acne skin. Unofrtunately, this made my face very red and irritated so i decided to use it on my feet 2-3x a week and then applied a heavy moisturizer with socks before bed. It left my feet SOOOO soft and removed most of callous. Whenever i get my pedicure, i get compliments that the bottom of my feet looks great so no scrubby. SO for face, NEVER but for feet, DEFINITELY

        Comments about Stridex Daily Care Acne Pads with Salicylic Acid, Maximum Strength, 55 ea:

        I'm in my mid-30s and have oily skin with moderate hormonal acne. While these pads have not completely cured that problem, they do seem to help my blemishes (both black- and whiteheads) heal faster, with less redness. They do leave my face a little dry, but nothing moisturizer hasn't been able to fix. So far they've work as well as, or better than, any other product I've used. Now, on to the other story....

        Recently I tried a new, non-aluminum deodorant and ended up with boils under both arms. While trying to find a replacement deodorant w/o aluminum, I swiped a Stridex pad under each arm, hoping it would tide me over until I could find something else. Not only did it work for several hours despite South Florida heat and humidity, the boils actually started to heal. I don't think I'd use this product as a permanent replacement deodorant, but it can be very helpful for a short-term fix.

            I was so worried that these would damage my skin because it's so sensitive. When i applied it to my face I was shocked to find that it actually tingled the way most toners should not burn my skin. I have also noticed that my white heads are getting much smaller and there is less oil on my face throughout the day. The price is fantastic to. I am using cetaphil normal to oily face wash and so far so great.

            Buy theses you won't be disapointed. The best part is you can buy these any where for such a great price.
