This review is from: Billy Jealousy Bar None Face Wash, 6 Ounces (Health and Beauty)
Yes, the smell is nice, but that's about it -- the product is horrible. I have a hard time believing that anyone used this with successful results (I call B.S. on some of those reviews). I have normal skin type and after using this product for 1 week my face was in pain. There is way too much Retinol & Salicylic acid (acne drying agents) in the formula -- trust me, this will over-dry your skin. If you have severely acneic skin you may like this, but for everyone else this will wreck your face. I will say, the aftershave lotion Billy Jealousy produces is nice, but the Bar None face wash is absolute GARBAGE.
Not quite a steal,

This was the first Billy Jealousy product I purchased, and I was not disappointed. I have tried many skin care products for men, and only a few moisturizers really hit the mark. This one hit the mark for sure.
When I used it the first time, the color was the first thing I noticed. A translucent green gel. That was kinda fun, but I digress. The product itself smelled incredible! It was like a lime margarita mix.
I put a quarter sized amount into my palm, which I later realized was waaay to much, and rubbed it in. The pleasant smell made it a pleasure to work into my skin for a few moments.
After I stepped out of the shower I waited to see the after effects (how fast my skin would dry out). It took about 3 minutes before I was fumbling for a moisturizer, but at least my skin felt super clean.
I use both this and the White Knight cleanser, but this one beats it out, at least for my oily skin.
The only downside? The price and size. If...Read more
Great for oily skin,

I couldn't agree more with the previous review, this stuff is great.
My entire adolescent and adult life I've had oily skin, mild to moderate acne and a notorious case of post-shave ingrown hairs. Drug store washes never seemed to do the trick.
And now, with the sticky and humid D.C. summer setting in, Bar None is the one product that's worked. And at only $18, it's a steal in my view.
