Acne.org 16 oz. Cleanser
Product Description
Hi everybody, I’m Dan. 12 years ago I started Acne .org to share a regimen that I discovered with the world. Acne .org is a community-based web site with message boards and a huge supportive community. I do not advertise and there is no cost to the user. Acne .org is completely self-supported by the selling of our products, which I make sure are the very highest quality and at affordable prices. But you do not have to order my products to use the site or to follow the regimen. I teach you how to use simple products you can get at your local drugstore as well.
I suffered for years with acne and tried everything. Like many of you have probably experienced as well, nothing worked. So I went to work researching everything I possibly could about acne (I’m a bit obsessive-compulsive) and after years of trial and error I found a treatment routine that cleared me up completely. I was elated to have found something that worked. Shortly thereafter I was inspired a book I read by Deepak Chopra which talked about giving whatever you can to the world and asking for nothing in return. So I did just that. I made a web site called Acne .org and posted the step-by-step regimen that I followed. For the first 6 years I didn’t make any products. I just told everyone which products to by at the drugstore and how to use them. That’s the thing with The Regimen at Acne .org. It’s about the process as much as it is about the products. You absolutely do not have to buy my products to get clear. You can get everything you need over-the-counter at any drugstore. What you have to do, however, no matter where you get your supplies, is follow the step-by-step process of The Regimen. Pretty much everyone who follows it closely gets clear–even many people with severe cases of acne. I post all of the steps on Acne .org. Just click on “Get Clear” and you will find all the instructions you need. It’s simple but very detailed. I really hope this helps guys. Let me know what you think.
This is what is in it:
Water, PEG-80 Sorbitan Laurate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Trideceth Sulfate, Glycerin, Sodium Lauroamphoacetate, PEG-150 Distearate, Sodium Laureth 13 Carboxylate, Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate, Butylene Glycol, Sage Extract, Cucumber Extract, White Oak Bark Extract, Panthenol, Allantion, Acrylates Copolymer, Methylgluceth-20, Polysorbate-20, Quaternium-15, DMDM, Hydantoin, Disodium EDTA, and a supportive community.
I was expecting the ingredient benzoyl peroxide to be in it, as it is in the ProActive line and was disappointed.

I haven’t actually bought this and I probably won’t only because I prefer to use as many natural products on my body/face as possible, but I did buy another of Daniel’s product and a free sample of this cleanser came with it. I’ve only used it one time but it felt really nice going on and my skin felt really clean and soft. The lather is great and you really don’t need much of it at all, just a little dab. I only gave it 4 stars because I think it’s just way too expensive.

It does exactly what it says. Its a nice light cleanser and is very good for shaving as well (don’t need to buy shaving soap).

Ever since I have been on the regimen, my acne-prone, dry, sensitive skin has breathed a sigh of relief. Prior to this cleanser I was juggling a ton of cleansers for the different times of the day. I used Ellen Lange, which is a very gentle mineral cleanser, for the morning wash and Laventine Olive Oil Cleanser, PCA #13, & Jan Marini Bioglycolic in the evening.
This cleanser is so gentle that I have been able to replace my very gentle morning cleanser w/ this, and not suffer any dryness during the day. I have also had great success w/ removing acne tx and masks w/o having to revert to an oil cleanser first. So far no irritation, no breakout and it completely cleanses. However I am still keeping Laventine’s Olive Oil cleanser for MU removal, but everything else I have been able to eliminate. I am glad I took the chance w/ this one.

I have to disagree with the previous review on this product, it is not an expensive cleanser. Sixteen ounces is a very large size for this price and the actual quality of the product is wonderful. It is unscented, lathers well but doesn’t leave any sort of soap scum or residue (like Noxema or other cleansers do) and if you use it faithfully along with the rest of Dan’s regimen it has a better chance of clearing up your skin than most over the counter acne medication/treatments. I have used Dan’s regimen for two years and it has helped my skin tremendously. It is very light, doesn’t feel “soapy” or thick like Neutrogena and similar brands.
