I have been using this product for over a year. It is not harsh on my skin like other acne cleansers. Smells great. Makes my skin feel clean and has been the best product I have used so far. As a person with PCOS acne has been a long struggle and this product makes me feel fresh and less irritated

I’ve been using this face wash for about a week so far. I have not had any new outbreaks. It foams nicely, has no scent, and leaves my face feeling soft afterwards. I suffer from cystic acne, and it has seemed to help reduce inflammation. I am using this wash along with The Ordinary products.
Honestly, it caused me to have worse acne than I did before.

It gave me terrible reactions when I started it, but I kept using it in hopes that it would help with blackheads and the painful pimples I kept getting. At first it made them heal faster, but caused me to have waaaaaay more pimples. Typically I only have one or two, but this was giving me up to ten at a time. It gave me more acne but would help them heal quicker, which was redundant. After months, I finally decided to just throw it away finally last week. Ever since, I haven’t had a pimple. I love Pacifica perfume and cute things like that, but this is not it. It was not good for my skin. And I still have a ton of blackheads. Please be safe and get face soap prescribed by a dermatologist if you want to avoid this pain. I’ll just stick to regular soap to wash my face again. This soap makes it so you need it cause it causes breakouts, but it’s really *the issue*.
Works well with eczema and acne!

The cucumber in the face wash has been both gentle and helping with the acne. Looking forward to trying the moisturizer.
All time favorite!

All time favorite face wash because it is light and bubbly to gently remove any skin debris, and it is paraben and cruelty free.

After coming off hormonal birth control about 2 years ago, deep painful breakouts developed on my face and neck and I needed a cleanser with some salicylic acid to help fight and maintain the development of blemishes. I have sensitive skin and this is absolutely the best! I hardly ever breakout anymore, and it doesn't over-dry or irritate my skin. I use it primarily in the morning followed by my brightening scrub to manage hyperpigmentation, but if I start to feel a pimple come through, I just do a day and night wash with this cleanser and legit it disappears within 48 hours. And a little bit goes a long way, which I love. 1 bottle will last you for months. HIGHLY recommend acne defense

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been buying this for 3 years now and it has been my favorite brand and product for as long as I can remember. It's the only product that really works. What first made me get the product was the cruelty free and vegan parts that made me want to buy in the first place.
Definitely helps with acne!!!

I've been using this product for over a year and love it! My face feels so much cleaner and, other than a few stray pimples here and there every once in a while, is acne-free. I have combination, acne-prone sensitive skin and have felt no irritation using this face wash. It is a little drying, so I would recommend getting a good moisturizer to go along with it - I'm currently using Pacifica's Pore Warrior Everyday Lotion, but I just got it about a week ago, so I can't comment on the overall effectiveness of its ingredients yet. If you struggle with acne and are looking for a good cleanser, I highly recommend trying this one.

Love this face wash. My skin riots if I try to use any cleanser that isn’t Pacifica’s. It feels nice, smells good, and leaves my skin feeling clean but not dry. I love every product in this line!

Been using this face wash for a little over a month and I really like it. Nothing spectacular has happened, but I'm not the most dillagint face washer. I love the feel of it on my skin. I feel like my face is clean without feeling stripped or overly dry.

Magic! One of the best facewashes that i have ever used. It helps so much with my oily skin and helps stop my breakouts and clears up my skin. Doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or dull eiether. I use it twice a day with my other face wash mixed together.
Drying if used daily

I love Pacifica products and have never really been disappointed! I do think this face wash helps with acne, but I don’t think it’s meant to be used daily, at least not for sensitive skin! I’ve used this once a day for 3 weeks and my skin is drier than it’s ever been. I’ve been packing on moisturizers, oils, creams, everything to moisten my skin back to normal. After 1 week of not using this face wash/completely packing my face with moisturizer and my face still has dry flakey patches. Once my skin is back to normal I will try using this every 2 or 3 days instead.
