pHisoderm Anti-blemish Gel Cleanser, for Oily, Combo and Acne-prone Skin, 6 Fluid Ounce Bottle (Pack of 4)

Old here. Worked well for me as a teenager. My teenager is using it and the product works great

Works good on diminishing my cystic hormonal blemishes

I started using pHisoderm in 1979--and I am still using it! I can't find anything better, and certainly not at the price. I had acne as a teenager, and in 1979, at age 25, I still had acne. Of course, I tried different products, but none of them worked. Then I stumbled upon pHisoderm, and it was THE answer for me. These days--at age 56--I still have skin that is inclined to break out, so pHisoderm STILL works better than any other product. I did try to change, just for variety, but nothing worked. The reason pHisoderm is so excellent is because it gets rid of acne, and it does not dry the skin out. It is really good for the skin. It's unfortunate that the company isn't too concerned with selling the product, as they did back in the 70s when it was available in gigantic glaring green bottles, was white, and had a medicinal smell :-) Every generation has to have a "concept" of what's healthy. Back then, it was the medicinal smell thing :-) After that, it changed bottles, again, but was still white, and available in big sizes. Then, the entire packaging changed, again, to what it is now -- small (dang) -- and clear -- the modern version of "good for your skin" concept. So, of course, I recommend this product highly for all ages. It cleans the skin throughly, preventing acne, gently, without drying the skin. I just ordered myself a nice pack of 4 that will keep me going for a while.

This product saved my life. Ok, maybe not my life but my skin and that is incredibly important to me. This is truly a miracle product without the strong prescriptions and bad side effects that may bring you. Forget the expensive face washes and facials, phisoderm can CURE ACNE. Not long ago, I couldn't walk out of the house without any foundation on. My skin was full of scars, acne, and blemishes. I was becoming hopeless and depressed because I couldn't find anything that helped but at the same time I didn't want to give up to prescriptions. My skin became so bad that I even started putting on a face mask and gave the excuse that I was "sick". I changed to a healthier diet, slept more, detoxed, facials, name brand face washes...you name it, I've done it. And nothing worked. After much research and reviews, I came upon this product on amazon and read the great reviews it has for this product. I thought I'd try it out but the low price and the fact that its not sold in stores made me hesitant about its effectiveness. And I was so wrong. After a month, my skin was CLEAR. Not only did it get rid of pimples, but it prevented them from forming as well. I don't know how phisoderm can be so effective at such an extremely low cost and low popularity. If everyone with acne problems started using this, they wouldn't have to see the dermatologist anymore. They would also save a bunch load of money. I cannot emphasize how much I love this product. It is definitely a cure for those who have acne breakouts, blemishes, and a better self-esteem. Do try this out, you won't regret it.

I got this because I have been wanting to free myself from Proactiv since I started it. I have been using it for a week now and have seen quite impressive results. This product does not contain benzoyl peroxide which although quite effective for acne, seems to dry out your skin on your face and also bleaches your clothes. It has a mild pleasant fragrance and does not dry out the skin. I use in conjunction with the Foreo Luna 2 for men and they agree with each other quite nicely. Apply twice daily for best results. Although if you are compulsive about washing your face, it will not hurt to apply more frequently. Phisoderm has always been marketed to people with sensitive skin and has along reputation of making products for such skin types. It is very gentle yet cleansing. I would recommend it to anyone. One more thing, I haven't used Proactiv now for a week and am still free from breakouts so I am a happy guy.

I've struggled with moderate-severe acne for YEARS. I have very sensitive combination skin, and I've tried everything from Proactiv (which made it worse) to Neutrogena (which worked for a while, but not well enough). This face wash is the one I've stuck with the longest, and although it isn't a miracle cure for my problem, it has helped me the most. It's very gentle, but still able to remove all my makeup at the end of the day, and it doesn't over-dry my skin. At night, all I do is wash my face with this and I'm done. In the morning my face isn't dry and peeling as a result. I'd recommend this product to anyone with sensitive skin and moderate acne as a very hopeful solution to your problem. I haven't written or recommended any other face-washing product for acne because I haven't found one good enough until pHisoderm.

I've never had a ton of zits even when I was a teenager, but when I would get them, they'd never be of the small variety. Generally, they'd be largish and nasty. So I'd have one huge pimple on a random part of my face once every other week or so. This would occur while I'd be using a pimple cream or face wash twice daily. In other words, those products didn't work. I'd used general mainstream products, as well as products aimed and marketed specifically towards men. Didn't work! So I decided to try this product. Of course, I was skeptical because this is relatively inexpensive compared with the other mainstream products I'd used. However, it simply works. I've been using it for a year and I've only gotten a pimple or two, and that was whenever I stopped using it. In my experience, you only have to use this once a day for it to be effective, so these bottles will last a long time. I use it when I shower, either in the morning or evening and it's a quick and easy application. If you've used expensive and ineffective products in the past, try this one and you may be pleasantly surprised.

I have absolutely no pimples with consistent use. I have pretty normal skin but have pretty bad allergies. I have gone through several face washes that make me sneeze uncontrollably or have way too much menthol it makes my eyes water. This product has a nice light lemony fragrance that doesn't bother my sinuses. It can be a bit drying like some people may have mentioned but I have a great face moisturizer to counter that. If you have very sensitive skin this may not be the product for you. I would not describe this product as a gentle cleanser, it is pretty strong, sometimes I only use half a pump or dilute it a little with water. Especially if I have a super dry face from the winter air or when my pores are really open after a long workout. I use it about once a day. I am sad that this product has been discontinued and I am not sure what I am going to use after this is no longer available on Amazon.
