I think the only reason that i keep using Clinique is because i don't get an allergy from it. However, for the most part, i don't think their products are that good. On the first few days of using this product, there is patches of skin peeling off around my nose..ie the more oily area. I put up with that though. As I continued to use this product, my skin happen to look worse. So far I've had a minor acne outbreak and theres white pumps growing around my nose...which is really just gross...( i'm sorry guys but i have to say this...) In conclusion, another disappointment from Clinique.

pretty much the only wash I've been using for the past 2 years. I have oily skin and this does a fantastic job of cleaning it without stripping it. Never had any issues with irritation or breaking out from it. This is a must have for those that want something light but that can remove oil, dirt and makeup

Another amazing skin product from Clinique. This soap leaves my skin super soft, as if I have just had a facial. My skin feels as if it has actually been cleansed with no traces of makeup or residue left behind.

My HG cleanser! Removes dirt and makeup perfectly (not all eye-makeup, thugh) and leaves the skin feeling soft and veery clean. Practical pump-bottle and not expensive at all, considering the 200 ml bottle size. I always and up going back to this after trying out other stuff.

It's a basic cleanser and nothing more than that. It's not special. My skin is sensitive but I still need a cleanser that will go a lil further and for the amount you pay for this product..it's really not worth it.

I was a die hard Neutrogena Foaming Face Wash cleanser. I got a really good deal on a "full solution" package that had this, Clinique dramatically different lotion and the toner all in one. Once I ran out of my neutrogena, I gave this a try and noticed a significant difference in the quality of my skin. It had seemed for the past couple years, a week wouldn't go by without me getting a zit. After I switched to this, it was much, much less frequent and I have fewer black heads too. My skin overall is smoother and more even. I'm very happy with this product.

i have psoriasis on my face and this product was excellent in keeping the redness and drying of my skin to a minimum but i was real disappointed that it didnt do anything for my acne or whiteheads.

Another blah product from Clinique... It's a cleanser, it cleanses and that's about it. It's nothing special and considering the price I expected it to do a bit better. The pump bottle, however, is a pro and the packaging looks nice and sleek. It's a bid too mild for me as I have occasional breakouts and I felt like this cleanser wasn't enough for me skin.I use Olay Regenerist cleanser now and it works fine for me. It's cheaper, easier to get the dose right and it gives my skin just a little more radiance.

well i have been using this product for a year and a half now so i thought it was time i write a review. i got the clinique 3 step system for christmas 2 years ago. i got the combination to dry combination (i think that's level 2?) and it included the mild liquid facial soap, a mild toner, and the dramatically different moisturizing lotion. i had been using all 3 steps for about 2 weeks already, and i didn't like the results i was seeing. i think the moisturizer was definitely the problem, it was way to greasy for my skin. the toner was ok, but it didn't really do anything to help my skin. so, i stopped using the lotion and the toner and only used the soap. i wash my face 2 times at night, once to take off my makeup (btw this is an excellent makeup remover as well!!) and once to wash my face. in the morning, i only wash my face once. i never had really bad acne before, i would have 1 or 2 breakouts at a time. now, my face is cleared up. i still get the occasional pimple, but a spot treatment takes care of that. not only am i not breaking out, but my skin is soooo much better. it is soft and my skin tone is even. i don't even wear makeup any more (not foundation anyways!). i have tried other cleansers, but i always come back to this one. i gave the price a 2. $15 dollars is a little pricey for soap i think (i mainly use drugstore products) and i don't like that i have to go sephora to buy it. it's kind of inconvenient because the closest sephora to me is at the mall, and that's kind of a hike. i gave the packaging a 4. i think it is a pretty good sized bottle. these bottles usually last me about 6 months. but, i have seen those HUGE bottles of toner and wonder why they don't make soap bottles that big. overall, i would buy this product again. this is the only soap that makes my skin so pretty and clear, so i probably won't be looking for a replacement any time soon.

I have very sensitive skin and so far this is the only facial soap I've found that doesn't burn or tighten my skin. It does, however, leave my skin very red and flushed for about 10 to 15 minutes after use.

Used it for two days and it seemed to be a nice cleanser. Until after 2 days of using this I got new breakouts. Only then I checked the ingredients and it has Sodium Laureth Sulfate. Usually I check for this in every cream, lotion, shampoo etc. but my bad, I forgot this time.

I'm really disappointed with this product. My skin has never reacted badly to any other cleanser, with the exception of one clean and clear product (just dried me out too much). I wasn't expecting this product to actually cause me to have worse acne. I started getting small bumps, especially around my mouth, that aren't red..just skin colored. I also gained acne on my cheeks, which I never breakout there.
I only used this for a week before I decided that it really wasn't helping. It's a shame because I really do like the bottle it comes in.
FYI--My skin is combination, oily T-zone. My acne usually clears up completely with neutrogena products, but I was running out of options with them (they do work wonders, but are rendered ineffective after a month or two).

This is a great facial soap. I have dry skin and face soaps tend to make my skin feel very tight after washing my face. This however doesn't make my skin feel dry at all after washing my face with it. It makes my face feel very smooth and soft. It is a little expensive for a face soap, but would buy it again because a little goes a long way. You don't need to use much of it. That's great.

I have used this for about two months now. I bought it as a last ditch resort. Murad Clarifying wash just did a number on my sensitive/combination skin and this cleared my skin overnight. I have oily T zone and I have used the soap bar for oily in the past, but it would dry my skin out a bit, not alot, but I could feel it. After about a year or so of jumping around from product to product, I came back to the basics and my skin is happy again.

I like the soap this way as opposed to the bar which tends to get messy.

I thought I was going to like this. However, it only took two days to realize this was not for me. After four uses, the skin on my cheek was peeling. That is how drying this cleanser was!!!! I am glad you can return items to clinique. This was not for me!! I cannot believe a brand like clinique uses a cheap surfectant like SLS, such a shame.

I used the Clinique 3-Step System during my early teens and did not find anything remarkable about it. I was particularly put off by the bar soap, which I felt was a waste of money.

After nearly15 years, I re-discovered Clinique and was pleased that the cleanser now came in liquid form. I decided to buy the system and unlike before, the cleanser/liquid soap is not my favorite "step" in the system.

The fragrance-free odor is something I really like. It smells pure and clean. I also love how it lathers and cleans my face w/o drying my skin at all. I can actually stop at washing.

It's great to be back to this basic.

I bought the 3 step system and loved the moisturizer and toner. This, however, was a dud. I've seen some people say "well of course this doesn't take your makeup off, you use a remover first" well, that's what I always do regardless of the cleanser. I take of the majority of it with a wipe. Of course there's some makeup residue that's in the pores so I expect my cleanser to at least be able to get rid of that. Nope. I used this, then the toner and there was still so much makeup on my cotton pad. If it can't even remove makeup residue, I can't expect it will really be cleaning my skin. It also smells odd. It does have a nice bottle/pump.

This face wash works decently well for me. I have sensitive skin and a lot of face washes irritate me pretty bad. It doesnt smell that great but it seems to smooth my skin out a little. Cleanses pretty well, takes off my makeup and doesn't dry me out.

I love this! It makes my face feel great, I use this along with the toner and the moisturiser, I am #2 and it is great. It does get rid of my make-up but you should always remove it with a make-up remover first. The downside is it costs me #30 odd dollars, and I do still break out a bit, but I would buy it again.

I switched to the clinique 3 step about 2 wks ago and I really like this cleanser. Considering I follow up my cleanser with a toner, I think this works well. My face always feels clean and free of any dirt and oil then my #2 toner picks up any leftover makeup that was missed w/o overdrying. I love it!
