This old, orange salicylic acid wash is super effective at keeping me acne-free (more now than when I was younger and suffering more hormonal break outs), but it is significantly drying if I use it twice a day (thus, it took so long to finish). I don't get all the hate though, as it is NOT the terrible thing some bloggers make it out to be. I'd still recommend this for younger, oilier, acne-prone skin types on a small budget... for use once a day as an evening cleanse. In fact, I best enjoyed using this as a second cleanse after an oil cleanser. After a relatively long massage with an oil, use this next. You only need to keep it on your face for 30 seconds, and everything's gone.
Other bonus: pump bottle. Top not seen because it's so manky now. Glad I can toss this out soon.
