Jennifer, I am a 52 year old woman and I've been using this product, along with Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Moisturizer for about 2 years. I was one of those teens who never had a blemish, even during that time of month. Twenties, no problems. Thirties I started getting black heads after the birth of my son and I mean all over my face all the time. This went on until I got 50. I don't know if it is due to my hormones or this product, but I do not have one blackhead now. I believe this product is only to be used once a week, that's how often I use it. Do yourself a favor and get a good daily face wash. Don't use soap on your face if possible. You're young, but if you start with a good daily face wash and a good moisturizer, you might not need the rapid wrinkle repair. LOL. Have fun in the sun but cover that face with the highest possible sunscreen. Neutrogeno has very good products. You should get this and look into their daily face washes and moisturizers. Hope this helps.

Definitely, you see improvement from day one. I say give it about 2 weeks and you will see your skin start to smooth out.

I am not sure. My husband told me it is good for that particular problem, but I would not be able to say. He has used it since before we got married, and he had not have acne problem that i noticed and he washes his face with it daily.

if you have acne and u are breaking out, limit the use to once a day..you don't need to get all the chemicals running throughout your skin too much.

I have not had a problem with breakouts and I use it alot. I am older, I dont know if that matters or not.

You must be careful doing this. Only do this once a month if you do it everyday it'll damage your skin and you'll be prone to catching diseases. It can also damage the good healthy skin cells.

You will use this after you wash your face with soap or a face wash. It helps to really exfoliate all the dead skin cells & makes your skin really soft. I use it in the shower mostly only 2-3 times a week. You shouldn't use it every day though as it's not necessary & always follow with a good moisturizer & sunblock during the day. I hope you like it.

Hi. It is a bit too rough for the face. Depends on how sensitive your skin is. It may cause a breakout

I'm using it daily. It's been a few weeks now. I see some improvement, but I do feel it's too soon to give a more thorough answer. Feel free to check back. My skin is looking a lot better overall!

It really depends on your skin type. My daughter is 17 with a fine skin, she can not mix the two. Me on the other hand I can. I am also using the product daily sometimes twice a day, while my daughter can use it only twice a week. P.S. I really like this product. You should ask someone that may not be that much in love with the product ... I may be giving a bias opinion.

I use it in the shower about every seven to ten days. Use about a pea size for the whole face. It will leave your skin smooth and soft.

I would think so. I'm in my 60's and used to have oily skin. Now that I've aged my skin is part oily and part thin and dry so I guess I can call it combination skin. It is the best cleanser I've used in a long time. It seems to clean well and my breakouts have pretty much stopped (and yes - I'm still having breakouts). But it hasn't dried out the dry part of my face nor has it caused redness. I guess I sound like an advertisement but I really do like this product. It works for me and is still gentle.

I wish I knew about this when I was 22. The earlier you start taking care of your skin, the better! To answer your question, yes.

Yes, definitely (I just double-checked). Here's the thing though: You have to use it *Every Day*. If you do you will be Amazed at how AWESOME, how Smooth, how Clear Your Skin Looks! However, if you slack off (use less than 4 to 7 times a week) It'll flare up again. Guaranteed. [btw: you need only Cleanse once daily using a mild, o.t.c., good facial cleanser) (Slough skin once per week with a (gentje version) Buf-Puf and your o.t.c. cleanser) and apply a Thin Layer of Effaclar Duo all over your face. A little goes a long way and the price is absolutely worth it p.s. re: the "worth it" part --- this is coming from a single mom of teenage triplets so you know I'm careful w/ how I spend money!

I am a black woman with medium-dark complexion...I can only speak for myself but this soap hasn't bleached my skin and I've been using it for about a year. It has cleared my breakouts and gives my skin a even tone.

I have not experienced any skin problems (including acne) with this product. Too, I agree with Rob regarding the witch hazel as a cleansing wash. Have used that periodically for 50 years. Best of luck.
