    Great for acne prone skin 🤩

    I've been using this for years, since I stopped using the Proactiv system and now only use their repairing lotion, which I use twice a day. I only use this scrub once a day, at night, after using a makeup removing face wash. It's a great product, that has actually not changed over the years, but they do keep changing the wording on the package, just to match the current words that are being used to describe the ingredients. That is just good marketing, and I don't see how anyone could be mad at that 😂 No, I do not think that this actually treats blackheads, but it does a good job and what it actually does do, which is exfoliating, particularly for acne prone skin. Plus, it has acne fighting ingredients, and it's an excellent price! Just FYI I cannot use this on my forehead, as it seems to cause irritation and/or drying there, but most people know that the skin there is just different.

    Great product

    The product is great. The only thing I dislike is the wording was changed and look like a different product in front. So I returned thinking it was and when I turned around it had the same description 🤦🏽‍♀️ oh well target needs to have an exchange button I would have not returned and could have cancelled the return.

    Love

    67yr old with occasional acne. This cleanser leaves my face clean, smooth and soft. Acne and enlarged pores are greatly reduced. Great Value Also love the 3-1 sunscreen-moisturizer but having trouble finding it. Is it being discontinued or replaced? Bonus: neither product created rosacea redness or breakouts. If you know, you know.
