“Best cleanser ever, i have oily and really acne prone skin and have tried various of facewashes and cleanser this is the only one that has not cause me any problem, also it has Glycerin so you will feel like its not washing off but its normal, other facewashes have sulphate that strips the skin of natural moisture that's why you get the feel of a clean face . By far this is the best for me i have use three bottle just one pump is enough to clean the face.”
U/WITTY_SPERM ↗“Didn't do anything to my skin. I am more of a foam based cleanser person, and honestly it doesn't foam at all. It feels like you haven't washed your face. Waste of money I would say.”
U/PRAKSMISH ↗“Yes salicylic acid is good for acne, or you could buy a Benzoyl peroxide soap to wash your face with. The oat cleanser is just a regular non-stripping cleanser and it won't help you in reducing acne, it's just to get the pollution, dirt, and grimes off your face. (Extra knowledge- A product needs some active ingredient to do some work on your face. Like vit c helps in Brightening and/or Hyperpigmentation, salicylic acid to regulate oil production, benzoyl peroxide kills acne casuing bacteria, glycolic acid to exfoliate etc etc).”

Add context that might help others — skin type, conditions like PCOS, what you'd tried before. The more specific, the more useful.
