The original -- and, some women maintain, the best -- product in the Oil-Free Acne Wash line, the Oil-Free Acne Wash, $6, is the one most recommended by dermatologists to fight acne. It has won beauty awards consistently over the years. Beauty editors like the product because it "leaves skin feeling super clean, but not tight" and "keeps oil in check." Neutrogena recommends following it with an oil-free moisturizer.

The wash is designed for acne-prone skin and delivers salicylic acid acne medicine deep into the pores. The Oil-Free Acne Wash cleanses skin without being oily. It does not contain any scrubbing agents.

Like many other acne scrub products, the Daily Scrub, $7, contains microbeads. These gentle exfoliators combined with MicroClear technology get deep into the pores to eliminate dirt, pollutants, and other impurities that prevent smooth, clear skin. Some reviewers say that the scrub does not work as well for dry or sensitive skin as it made their skin even more dry.

The Cream Cleanser, $7, is formulated with skin soothers to prevent skin from over-drying, which may be a good option for those who have dry or sensitive skin. The Neutrogena-patented MicroClear technology promises to deliver results in just one day. Reviewers say that it more than delivers on this promise. Some have even claimed that it "changed my life" and "doesn't dry my skin out."

Neutrogena has also since introduced an Acne Stress Control version of the cream cleanser, which is designed to treat breakouts before they start.
