Q: Is this product a scrub or a cleanser? Like how should it be used as a scrub or a cleanser? I'm asking this because I already have a cleanser I'm just missing a scrub, I'm seeing people call it a scrubbutalsoacleanser
submitted by Kenny - 4 years ago
A: Hey Kenny, that's a great question! Scrubs and cleansers are very similar, and will often be referred to interchangeably. There are subtle differences in how those products help keep your skin happy and healthy, most notably that a scrub tends to penetrate deeper and focus on removing or preventing acne from the source. So we've designed this to be a scrub, but it is gentle enough to be used as a daily cleanser!

It lathers very well, making it effortless even to rinse out, it's very easy. It didn't leave any residue on my face. The package is the perfect size and the tube is durable and easy to squeeze out. My face feels clean.

This Power-Clear Scrub is my secret weapon against stress-induced breakouts. It powerfully clears pores and controls oil without over-drying, thanks to its effective yet gentle micro-bead formula. I love the refreshing tingle and how it leaves my skin feeling deeply clean and smooth. It has visibly reduced redness and prevented new blemishes from forming, especially during hectic weeks. A reliable, oil-free solution for clearer, calmer skin.

Exfoliates&fights breakouts before they begin!
This product is a favorite of mine that I use weekly! As someone who has had acne their entire life this product has helped control and reduce the number of breakouts I get. When using this to clean your face it exfoliates and helps unclog your poor. It’s made with green tea, and cucumber which helps soothe your skin. The formula is creamy and helps soften your skin even while exfoliating! This is a repurchase for me every time! I honestly haven’t found a Neutrogena product I haven’t been obsessed with yet!

Great exfoliating face wash
I know it’s a good face wash because it has salicylic acid and it scrubs all the dirt off. It makes my face feel softer after washing it. But I give it 4 starts because every time I use a face wash with an exfoliating scrub more acne comes out, even though I know they were there and they just came out thanks to the scrubbing. Either way it is a good wash.

A gentle yet effective scrub that keeps skin clear
I’ve been using the Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Power-Clear Scrub for a while, and I really like how effective it is at keeping my skin clear. The texture is creamy with gentle exfoliating beads that don’t feel too harsh on my skin, and it leaves my face feeling refreshed and smooth. I noticed that it helps reduce breakouts, especially around my T-zone, without drying out my skin. The scent is light and clean, which makes it pleasant to use daily. The packaging is simple, sturdy, and easy to squeeze out just the right amount. For the price, I think it’s a great value since a little goes a long way.

Good grit scrub
Classic scrub with a good amount of grit. Some scrubs are too tough on skin, but this one has a good balance. Packaging is easy to use to get out very last drop

Effective, affordable scrub that keeps skin clear,
This scrub works really well for oily and acne-prone skin. The texture is gentle but still exfoliates effectively, leaving my skin fresh and smooth without feeling too harsh. It helps to control breakouts and keeps excess oil away, especially when used a few times a week. The scent is light and refreshing, and the packaging is convenient to use. For the price, it’s a great value because it actually delivers results and lasts a long time.

Too harsh for every day use.
This product is effective when used as part of a routine but daily use is too stripping even for oily skin. It is powerful but can disrupt the skin barrier.

Best budget scrub, period.
I don't think I could hype up any other scrub I've tried in the past. This one leaves my skin feeling perfectly clean, but not like I just scrubbed my face with wet sand (we all know THAT scrub). It's gentle and smells good and I honestly can't complain for the price.

Great facial scrub
Great value, the perfect way for me to introduce salicylic acid into my skincare routine. The exfoliating beads in it really feel like they work, i do wish they were a bit easier to rinse off, though.

Great product you can feel working
I love how much lather and foaminess you get from this scrub. It feels nice on the skin and you can feel it working. Feels like it gets deep down in the pores to help get the dirt and grime out.
