Didn't really do anything for my skin.
I used to use this product day and night until I realized that it wasn't helping my skin at all. In fact, it dried it out, especially during the winter months. Sometimes it even irritated the skin around my nose and forehead.
I don't think I'll repurchasing this product.

This is my favourite product ever, you can get this from your local drugstore for around 5 dollars. Its white solid cream feeling. I don't really like the idea of putting my fingers in the pot, and increasing bacteria so I have to be careful. This has a very strong methol smell but I like it and it makes me feel fresh and wakes me up.It removes all makeup and moisturizes, at the end you may feel like there's a film of cream on your skin, it will go away that's how it works. YOU SHOULD KNOW : this product will not cure your acne, get rid of your pores or it may not even show any results with you. I have very low maintenance skin and I just want a quick and cheap cleanser that will remove my makeup.

Okay, to start off...
I'm 18 and I'm still trying to figure out my skin.
Being used to the 15-16 year old me, who never had breakouts of skin troubles, now that I am beginning to, it upsets me quite a bit.

My skin gets oily during the day no matter what and acne wise has gotten worse during the past month. My acne is not noticeable in pictures etc, but it still bothers me, I've tried proactive (waste of money, harsh chemicals), and many many other drugstore brands.

The only thing that although had not helped my acne, but not caused it to worsen, has been the Dove sensitive skin bar. Yes, on my face.

Anyways, about a few days ago I noticed this facewash in my parent's bathroom and decided to try it. I loved the way it tingled when it washed and it seemed to do a good job at removing dirt, however I didn't like the "film" it left behind, which I'm assuming is the moisturizers. Although it could be harmless, I felt as if my skin was not really clean. So, after washing with this, I used my Dove soap and the film was gone. While using this, I had one of those under the skin, painful bumps, that has now dispapeared. My acne has gotten much smaller in size, some has already dissapeared and acne scars are becoming less noticable too.

I also use Benzaclin overnight.,

My mom just bought me my own and I'm excited to keep using this and will update if results change! :)

I try this before. I'm not sure it made a difference to my skin. It didnt feel as though as though it thoroughly cleaned my skin.

This product is amazing for my skin. I have oily/combination, extremely sensitive skin as to whatever touches my face or a product I use, whether it be organic or not, I break out. So for 7 months I stuck to not using anything at all and just scrub my face with water. It was something to uphold but not when t.o.m came around. My friend has AMAZING skin, super flawless and I noticed the wash she used, which was the same one that I had. I was sick and tired of piling foundation on my pimples so I just tried it out and I was amazed! Not only did it clear my breakouts but it removed the blackheads that hid under my skin on my cheeks. Anyways overall the product is transforming and my face is glowing, but I do still break out every now and then. Im not so excited about the package I bought, It has a pump and I don't like it because the product in the pump gets hard over night, I'll be repurchasing the tub next time!

This is great at removing makeup. That for me was the only plus. I didn't mind the smell, but it wasn't great, either. This left a film on my face after rinsing it off, which I hated. I always use a toner after cleansing, so it was gone after that, but I still hated the feeling. At first I thought it was working for my skin, so I gradually started taking other things out of my regimen. Unfortunately, this just broke me out more and wound up doing nothing for the zits I had popping up. Off to the garbage it went! Wont be repurchasing.

I really did love this stuff and I was prepared to be completely monogomous to this cleanser for as long as they made it, I loved it so much. Alas, it eventually did end up clogging my pores and being a tad too heavy for me. I didn't want to admit that this had turned against me but I guess I should have known when I noticed that using this had started to clog the drain in my bathroom sink. I have moved on to St. Ives blemish and blackhead control cleanser and it has worked much better for me.

I really love this cleanser!
It is smooth, creamy, and cleanses off my makeup, dirt, and oil easily
It cleanses well without leaving the skin feeling tight or dry!
Leaves a tingly refreshed feeling to the face, after you rinse it off!
It is a lightweight creamy texture that lathers well into the skin!
Great for dry, sensitive, and acne prone skin (irritated by topical medications like me)
I have combo-acne prone skin. It is sensitive and I break out VERY easily. Recently, the acne medical creams have DRIED OUT MY SKIN to the point of flaking and burning after washing my face with other cleansers.
Thus, I have resorted to using one of my all-time favourite brands, Noxzema and it really proved to be excellent-as usual.
Face is feeling clean, supple, and A LOT more balanced and restored to a "normal" skin type opposed to the combo-acne-oily skin which suffered from the acne topical creams to become dry sensitive skin.
Will repurchase! Great deal, with the LARGE VOLUME OF PRODUCT!

Great stuff: wakes me up in the morning feeling clean and refreshed. I use their anti-blemish foaming cleanser in the evening to get makeup off and The Clarisonic once or twice a week and my skin has never been better ever!!!! I wish I could get back all the $$$ I've spent on high-end cleansers that are nice to almost great but I think now I'll settle for GREAT and dirt cheap at the same time.

My humid city just got a warning that this would be the coldest winter in a long time and I knew I needed to get more moisturizing products to combat the dryness that would result. I had bought the Original Skin Cream in the US a month ago and was loving that, and came across this one at my local Shoppers Drug Mart. I was kind of miffed because it was A LOT more expensive here in Canada compared to the price in the US... but I picked it up anyways and have been using it since.

I really like this stuff, its very soothing and refreshing.. great way to end the day OR start the day. I haven't noticed any improvement in my pimples and blackheads but I think that is because I am using a terrible foundation. My skin however does look brighter and more "alive" if you know what I mean.

I love Noxema. My face is oily in the T-zone and i breakout around there. The first time I used this, my face was totally refreshed and felt clean and mosturized. Although I still have acne, i feel the oil going away and the acne slowly diminshing.

You know, this product doesn't do for me what it does for everyone else. I use it occasionally , yes, but it's more out of habit than anything else. When I've had a really bad day, I fill the tub with extremely hot water, add the bubbles, the epsom salt and put on my noxema and relax. It feels great.

I did notice that I can't use this every day, as it dries and cracks the skin around my nose, but it's akin to comfort food and I just can't completely stop using this product.

I dis used to use the original Noxema formula and I really can't tell much of a difference, except that this cream is a tad more tingly.

I have combination skin that does not respond well to moisturizers, so I was a bit leery when my husband brought this home instead of my regular face wash. But it's been 3 weeks and my skin is doing great. The dry spots have really responded well, and the oily spots aren't too much worse than usual. Sometimes I have to blot a couple hours after washing my face, but it's a small price to pay for the smooth, clear skin I'm now seeing on a daily basis.

To me, this stuff smells like the original and is no stronger than the original...but I really like menthol in body wash and shampoo, so I could be less sensitive to it. The tingle is nice and it easily cuts through my makeup.

Will definitely buy again...but not for a long time, this jar is huge.

I have been using this product on & off. I was first told about this by my mother who said her mother has been using this for years & has beautiful skin; same as my mother who uses this & dove. For me on the other hand, I have oily skin (mainly the t-zone) & this is horrible.. I mean it seems to make my skin even more oily. I'm only using this before I go to bed to clean my face of oil & makeup; it cleans the makeup off thats about the best part of this product (& smell & of course the price) other than that this does not really work for me. It's a shame because there are so many good reviews but mostly for combo/dry skin & I just wanted this product to work so I wouldn't have to worry about blotting my face during the day, guess that will never happen :P

HG! How do I love thee Noxema? I use this for everything-really soothes irritated skin from Retin A and chemical peels. Calms irritated skin from razor burn-I even shave with it. Prevents bikini bumps from hair removal, cools sunburns, my fave thing ever!

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!! I have combination/dry skin, so the added moisturizers in this product are excellent! I absolutely love the smell, and the tingling sensation, even though sometimes it stings a little. It's creamy, and soft, and the jar makes sure it doesn't dry out. I used to use it every day, and now I limit it to 3 times a week. It is an effective product, and will leave your skin feeling refreshed and clean.

AHHH. I love this product. I have dry/combination skin. I often get dry patches on my cheeks and some oilyness in my T-zone. I have been using this products for a few months, I'm almost done with the jar! And I love it. It keeps my cheeks moisturized and my t-zone oilyness at bay. I have tried many many many different cleansers but this is the only one I have actually continued using until the bottom of the jar and will be repurchasing! I have only used this during the colder months however, but I'm hoping it will work equally as well in the summer months. It gives you a great clean feeling without any residue. The product may seem plain and boring, however it truly is a keeper. More expensive products may claim to perform miracles, however I always fall back to this one. The only complaint I have is the packaging. The jar version can be a hassle because you have to scoop the product out. However, it isn't a big deal to me at all since the product is amazing. Its amazingly cheap, easy to find, and well worth it. Amazing, Amazing, Amazing.

This stuff smells really strong...like vicks rub or something. It cleans my face well but I don't find it very moisturizing. I won't repurchase this again.

This review is for the "Noxzema Deep Cleansing Cream: Normal/Dry-Plus Moisturizers," and I got the tub version. I want to note that the tub and pump formulas have totally different ingredients. I think the company just "pretends" they're the same (they both have the exact same name, but the packaging is different) for marketing purposes.
So. First of all, the stuff has an incredibly strong smell. As an early teen, I actually used to reguarly use -- and sort of like the smell of -- the original Noxzema. Compared to that, I would call this new stuff overpowering and strange. It's sort of minty, but there's a kind of nauseating "sweetness" to the smell too. I don't like it. It's so strong that when I was using this stuff for the first time, my bf called out to me from the *other* side of the closed bathroom door, "You know, that stuff's really strong! I can smell it out here." lol.

Anyway, I was really shocked at the (poor) quality of the product. Like I said, I used to use Noxzema -- the original stuff was my daily cleanser for at least a year, and it worked great at the time. This new formula looked strange when I opened it. Just sort of "not smooth" in the jar. I scooped out a bit, and that was no easy feat. I kid you not -- it actually crumbled in my fingers, some pieces breaking off the main chunk like dried bread crumbs. Gross! I tried to rub it between my hands and then began to apply it to my dry face, as the instructions say to do. A couple seconds later my skin began to burn! No, not that fun & refreshing Noxzema tingle, but sting and burn! It was painful. I rubbed it around my face and tried to give it a second to do its job and simmer down, but it didn't. Just stinging! I told my bf thru the door that I needed to get this stuff off my face. And I did.

I don't know how well a job it did at cleaning, but I felt as though I had a residue on my face. I broke out the next day. (I should note that it was a warm day, so the heat may have influenced the breakout.)

I don't know what happened -- Maybe I got a bad tub? I don't want to give up on Noxzema though -- I'm still going to try some other formulas. This one went back to the store.
