    Average

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s an average cleanser I would say. It worked as needed which is to clean my face. But there’s not really anything special about it. I do prefer a cleanser that can take off makeup

    Great Cleanser

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved Thayer's Blemish Cleansing Cleanser for free in exchange for my honest opinion. Thanks so much to @Influenster and @Thayers for the awesome opportunity to try out their entire acne fighting line of products. So far, so good, and I've been using them for quite a few months now since I forgot to post my review. This Blemish Cleansing Cleanser is nice and effective. It doesn't have any strong odor to it and is easy to lather up and use. Make sure to moisturize because any of the acne fighting products can dry your skin out pretty quick due to the ingredients used to tackle the acne. I personally give it 5 stars and recommend to all of my friends and family.

    Effective

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed using this cleanser because I could tell a difference that it helped with my acne. It did dry me out a little bit, but then I started using it only once a day instead of twice which helped a

    If you have one, you have them all.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Did the job I guess. However, it seems to work just like any other cleanser I have tried. Just an extra item that does the same thing. Smell was fine. Packaging was fine. Just not my favorite thing ever.

    The best skin care products on the market

    As someone who has combination skin, and has battled with acne since I hit puberty. I had acne scars all over my face. I would break out constantly, and I spent hundreds of dollars on brand name products. Nothing seemed to work for me. Now my routine consists of this face wash, followed by the milky toner and finally the 80 hr moisturizer. I will tell you honestly that I have been using this consistently for 4 months now, and my skin cleared up and looked so much better within 2 weeks of use. My skin is clear and hydrated and I couldn’t be more happy! I would HIGHLYYYY recommend thayers products PHOTOS (the one without glasses is my skin now)

    Acne face cleanser

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This face cleanser lathers up nicely. It is a more runny liquid consistency. A pump bottle packaging would be better. My skin has some improvements since started this skincare line.

    Fresh Faced

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love a good cleanser and while this one is a bit rough it's very effective! I usually use Korean and Japanese cleansers and this one is a good example of how thick western cleansers can be but it gets the job done and not a huge factor if you have oilier skin! ♥ It smells fresh but somewhat faint but bubbles up really well even though it seems to be really creamy~

    Not bad

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It would be effective if I had blemishes, but not at the moment. The scent was not bad, the packing was nice too. They did well on the ingredients, and the texture was ok. I'll pass on this one next time since I don't have blemish but was nice to try it.

    A Clarifying Concoction: Thayers Clearing Cleanser

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In an era where skincare aficionados are perpetually on the lookout for efficacious products to tackle the tribulations of acne-prone skin, Thayers Clearing Cleanser emerges as a veritable game-changer. This salicylic acid-infused elixir has proven itself to be a stalwart ally in my quest for a clearer, more radiant complexion. Upon initial application, the cleanser's gentle, non-comedogenic formula effortlessly dissolves dirt and impurities without stripping my skin of its natural moisture. The subtle exfoliating properties of the salicylic acid work synergistically with the soothing aloe vera, ensuring that my skin is left feeling refreshed and revitalized, rather than irritated or parched. What sets Thayers Clearing Cleanser apart from its contemporaries is its remarkable ability to balance efficacy with gentleness. Unlike some harsher cleansers that can leave skin feeling tight and dry, this product strikes a harmonious balance between purifying and nourishing. My skin has responded remarkably well to its consistent use, exhibiting a notable decrease in acne frequency and severity. While no product is a panacea for all skin concerns, Thayers Clearing Cleanser has undoubtedly earned a permanent place in my daily skincare routine. Its impressive performance, coupled with its reasonable price point && eco-friendly packaging, render it an attractive option for those seeking a reliable, effective cleanser that won't break the bank or compromise their values. Recommendation:Suitable for acne-prone skin types seeking a gentle yet effective cleanser. May not be ideal for extremely sensitive skin due to the presence of salicylic acid Positive Scent not overpowering Lotion like form

    Good

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One of the best acne products I have ever tried. I have always struggled with acne since I was a teenager, but now after a month of use, my acne has completely disappeared and my face is soft. Additionally, the product has a rich aroma.

    Deep cleans the skin

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the consistency of this cleanser. Deep cleans the skin. It is very neutral scented. Have been using this during acne flair ups. Would be a great product line for teens.

    Unsure about the results

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked the way it smells and how it seems to clean the face but I didn't notice any major improvements after a few months of use. I don't think I will use it again.

    Great for period acne

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Once again they are going with a scentless formula. Yay! It's smooth and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. Brought my hormone break outs down a level.

    Acne Prone

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started using this cleanser with my sister because she has more acne prone skin where’s I experience dryness. This helped her acne out significantly. It reduced her redness surrounding the area. For me I felt this was just drying to me but that could be because I do not have acne prone skin.

    Awesome Cleanser!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the effectiveness of this cleanser, it barely had a scent and worked great at removing dirt and makeup from my skin. I love that it’s affordable and it’s got good sturdy packaging! Thank you Influenster for sending me this product incentivized!

    New favorite

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Thayers Blemish Clearing Cleanser is an outstanding product that absolutely deserves a 5-star rating! From the very first use, I noticed a significant improvement in my skin’s clarity and texture. This cleanser effectively targets blemishes while being gentle on the skin, thanks to its natural ingredients like witch hazel, tea tree oil, and aloe vera. The formula lathers nicely and provides a deep clean without stripping my skin of its natural moisture. It leaves my face feeling refreshed, balanced, and free of impurities. Unlike many other acne cleansers, this one doesn’t cause dryness or irritation, making it perfect for daily use. I also love the pleasant, natural scent, which is a nice bonus. After using this cleanser consistently, my breakouts have reduced significantly, and my skin looks and feels healthier overall. In summary, the Thayers Blemish Clearing Cleanser is a game-changer for anyone dealing with blemishes. It’s effective, gentle, and formulated with high-quality natural ingredients. I highly recommend it for clear, healthy skin. Five stars!
