Product description
STEP 1 OF THE REGIMEN AT ACNE.ORG
ACNE.ORG CLEANSER
Gently Cleanses & Rinses Completely
The first step in treating acne is to gently cleanse the skin to remove oil, dirt, and pollutants so that acne treatment can penetrate.
I formulated this generously sized, ultra-gentle liquid cleanser to be pH balanced so it doesn’t overdry or strip the skin.
It produces a thick lather which allows for fast and gentle cleansing.
Rinses completely.
Fragrance-free and dye-free.
Contains 240 pumps. Lasts 2 months (or more).
HOW TO USE
How do I use it as a facial cleanser?
Wet hands. Dispense a generous amount of Cleanser. Work up a lather. Very gently wash your face for 10 seconds or less. Physical irritation of the skin can lead to more acne, so use a featherlight touch and wash for a short period of time.
How do I use it as a makeup remover?
Acne.org Cleanser works at removing foundation, BB/CC cream, powder, blush, and bronzer. For long-wearing makeup, lipstick, and eye makeup, Acne.org Moisturizer or Acne.org Organic Jojoba Oil may be a better choice. Stay very gentle when washing.
How do I use it to shave?
At the end of your shower, dispense 2 pumps of Cleanser and work into a thick lather. Very gently apply to bearded area and use the lather in place of a shaving cream/gel. Shave confidently yet carefully.
Irritation can make acne worse, so it is vitally important to stay gentle and brief when washing your skin.
How do I use it as a body wash?
Dispense Cleanser into hands and work into a thick lather. Do not use a washcloth or loofah. Very gently wash your body, letting the Cleanser do the work. Do not rub or scrub. Then let the shower water wash the Cleanser away. After your shower, very gently pat dry with a towel.

ABOUT DAN – ACNE.ORG FOUNDER & PRODUCT FORMULATOR
I started getting acne at 11 or 12. I went to multiple dermatologists and tried every possible medication. Nothing worked. I came to the realization that no one knew how to clear up acne!
So, I started educating myself. I read every book in every library and tried every ingredient and product that I could.
After a decade or so of trial and error I finally figured out how to get myself completely clear, and it turns out my Regimen works for just about anyone who follows it precisely.
You guys asked me to make ideal products for The Regimen, so I got into the lab and formulated these products so everyone can easily follow The Regimen and get completely clear themselves.
Let me know what you think!

LIFE-CHANGING Product!!!!
This is the best product for anyone who has ever struggled with acne! It is honestly life-changing. This is not a sponsored review. It is just that awesome. I’m pretty sure I’ve tried every highly recommended acne product out there in the last 5 years. This tops them all.I started struggling with acne as an adult. Cystic acne, which is painful and causes severe pore damage and scarring. My journey has taken 5 years and I’ve spent so much money on so many products that didn’t work. First I tried proactive and it made no difference whatsoever. I went the opposite route and only used simple over the counter cleansers like neutrogena, but that didn’t help. I bought water purifiers for my shower and sink because I thought my skin was reacting to toxins in the water, but that didn’t work. I switched to Mario badescu and spoke with a specialist and bought the whole regime which helped a little, The “buffering cream” in particular. But I had to be painfully religious with it (including wearing masks to bed every night) and even then I would still break out. I changed my diet and cut out all gluten soy dairy and sugar for 9 months. But that still didn’t work. I took prescribed medication. And that worked while I took it but quickly stopped working when I was off of it. I took over the counter medication. Supplements… You name it.Finally, I came across this product while watching a YouTube video. The testimonials were pretty convincing. And so I went for it. After a month of religiously using it I noticed a huge difference. My skin was still covered in bumps and small breakouts but the cystic acne was gone. Within three months, my skin was even. By six months I had clear skin with occasional breakouts. By 8 months, my skin was gloriously even clear and normal. Scarring went away almost entirely. My pores were smaller. I use it now about 5 times a week and I never breakout. I still need to use it regularly but not as religiously. Now I get compliments on my skin. When I tell people about my battle with my skin, they don’t believe me.The large bottles of the regimen lasted me about 8 months. Currently, I use the large bottle of the cleanser and regular sizes of the other 3 creams. I do use the glycolic acid as well and recommend it. If you’re camping or don’t have access to water, you can use cleansing face wipes and go through the rest of the regimen as you normally would.So there’s my long-winded recommendation and way more information than you needed to know.If you’re struggling with severe acne, get this. It really works. Stick with it. Don’t give up. And you’ll be so happy you did.

Great cleanser, here’s why
Out of all the products that I’ve used in the past 5 years,this cleanser, from acne.org, had the most promising results.The first two week were brutal. My skin was itchy and irritated. Flakes of dry skin was peeling off my face, and no matter how much, or what moisturizer I used, it would not go away.I believe this is a normal phase for certain skin types, because my brother did not have this problem. The same thing happened when I first applied it on my neck and chest area (I suffer from body acne as well). Fortunately, after the two weeks I saw that my skin was starting to clear up, and was no longer irritated or itchy.I’ve been using this product a little over 4 months. I do have oily skin, so this product stripped me away from the natural moisture/oil that my skin produces, hence the itchiness. I am now left with large pores, and my face is a mosaic of different types of discoloration. I did suffer from severe acne. I will note that after 4 months of consistent use, I realized that my skin wasn’t heavily reliant on this cleanser. There would be days where I would wash my face with just water, day and night, and I wouldn’t break out. If I slept over at a friend’s house and I forgot my cleanser, I would use hers, and my skin would be so forgiving; I didn’t wake up to a face full of pimples.Overall this product has helped get rid of acne at the source; I’m very pleased with it.

Three years and still going strong
I’m not typically one to review items, however I had no choice but to commend the makers of this product for their work. Like most normal teenagers, I tried every product on the face of the earth trying to find the perfect solution for my skin, whether prescription or over-the-counter. Freshman year of college (now a senior), I was looking through facial cleansers on Amazon and decided to give this one a try. Ever since that day, I’ve been a loyal customer to this amazing product.PROS:- Does not over-dry skin, no need to use moisturizer alongside it (although they sell that too)- Large bottle will easily last two months, great size for the price- Can also be used as a shave gel, although I still prefer actual shave gel so I don’t waste the cleanser- Skin does not “get used to it” and stop working, as I’ve been using the product over 3 years and haven’t had any major breakouts since- Does not bleach or stain towels as some other cleansers doCONS:- If you drop it from any significant height (such as in the shower) and it lands wrong, the pump has a good chance of snapping off; but this has nothing to do with the product itself, more user errorOverall, I would recommend anyone at least give this cleanser a try. Based on the other reviews, it seems to be highly regarded by everyone and I can confirm all of these statements.

Good Cleanser
The product itself works very well. I have extremely sensitive skin but this is the best cleanser I have found so far. After using this on my face, my skin does turn slightly red, but like I said, this is to be expected because I have such sensitive skin. Overall though, this product has been the most gentle on my face compared to everything else I’ve tried. I can already see a slight difference after only a week of using it, twice daily. The reason I gave it four stars is because the bottle arrived broken. The top of the bottle where you press down was broken and product was leaking out of cracks on the tube of the lid, which was disappointing.
