I've been using Clearasil for at least a year now & I'm not really sure that it's doing its job. When I wash my face with it, it feels better but I'm not sure it's really getting in there to clear up my acne. I've read about how you shouldn't use one kind for too long. Is that true?

Yeah I'd agree, your skin gets used to the face wash and it's no longer working as hard to fight bacteria and it's just letting the chemical sit there, try out a different face wash, if you're concerned about acne opt for something with benzoyl peroxide in it.

I try a varieties or switch it up certain days I'd use normal soap then other days use your cleanser that way your face doesn't get too comfortable with your cleanser

A cleanser that I like with benzoyl peroxide is the Oxy face wash. I get it at Walmart, but it may be harsh on skin, so I would alternate between using it and a gentler face wash. Hope this helped!
