Neutrogena Rapid Clear Maximum Strength Acne Face Pads, for Acne Prone Skin, Salicylic Acid Treatment to Help Fight Breakouts, Oil-Free Facial Cleansing Pads with 2% Salicylic Acid Treatment, 60 Count

I like this stuff... Always clears me up quick. Smell is decent. Not something you desire to sniff necessarily, but not offensive to the nose at all! Good thick pads with a wide size area of effect, and nice grippy texture checkering so they don't slip while your wet hand is dragging them across your face. Only time I've ever had a problem with these is when I let them sit on my desk for several months, not using them every day, and they dry out almost a year later. My fault completely.

I love these little pads. Medicated to help with breakouts if they plague you, but a good thing to us even if you don't struggle with breakouts. They do seem to work. There's a nice clean subtle fresh smell after using too, a freshness for your face to start your day, or before bed, or both, just like brushing your teeth does for your mouth. Use them after washing your face or showering. I even use these when rustic camping in lieu of being able to wash my face. However you choose to use them it makes you feel good seeing that brown oil & dirt on the pad after using.

I bought this not too long ago just to do it and I swear ever since I started using it, the texture of my skin has improved so tremendously that I bought a second container. I have zero breakouts. My skin is soft, healthy looking. I definitely will not discontinue using this.

Current usage: 1 week / as make up remover and to clean breakout areas in the morning and eveningsPros:-Very quick & easy to remove makeup-active improvement of acne prone areas (side of face, sides of nose, chin)-Smooth texture (though a bit tacky immediately after)-One wipe works for a full face of make up (skin tint, eyeshadow, blush & bronzer)Cons:-Smells very strong of alcohol/ do not use on eyelids-Left my skin a bit dry / follow up with moisturizerWill update review with final thoughts once I’m finished with product :)

Why did you pick this product vs others?:defiantly cleans my face and my husbands. He is outside a lot and it works wonders for him! I just use is as an occasional and love it.

My local stores never keep shelves stocked so I relied on Amazon and they had these cheaper on here. Delivered really fast & exactly as stated.

These smell really clean and refreshing! My face felt so clean and smooth after using only one pad, and the next morning I noticed the breakouts that had started popping up around my jaw line were nearly completely gone! I love that the active ingredients didn’t cause my sensitive skin any issues! These work wonders for keeping in my bag so I can use between things like the gym, a hot sweaty day at the park, I just take one pad out and it cleanses my face so well without using any other products afterwards I’m still shocked that my face feels as soft as it does! Would highly suggest trying these for anyone that suffers from occasional breakouts from combination skin! All in all they were such a great experience for me to use! They are super compact and durable, affordable, so delicious smelling and all of these benefits come with just ONE step in ONE single pad! What a win!

I mostly wanted this to reduce oil on my nose and clean the pores. It didn't really work out for me -- I had to be really careful keeping it away from my eyes and it left kind of a goopy feeling and an odor. I got a bad taste in my mouth even though I don't think I stuck the pad directly in there. I've switched to Cetaphil Gentle Exfoliating SA Cleanser and that works better for my needs.
