and it is amazing. It got rid of most of my pimples in one night. The only thing is, it irritated my skin and made it itch. I want to keep using this because it's the only thing that helps my acne, but I don't know what to do about the irritation. Is is just because my skin isn't used to it yet? What should I do?

it is drying out your skin. try using a hypoallergenic moisturizer for acne prone skin.

You skin will get very dry and irritated (especially if you live somewhere cold) as you keep using it. When your skin is too dry, it will become oily to compensate, thus giving you pimples again.
You should use it only every other day. When you aren't using it, try a gentle soap and moisturizer like Neutrogena.
That's great that you've found a product that clears up your skin though!

I have been using the clean and clear wash only and a glove that is a bit rough.. this is a miracle cleaner.. cleans the best and is the cheapest. Use a neutrogena moisturizer after and this should soothe the skin.
Also try using the clean and clear wash for gentle skin.
Wash your face twice a day.. I keep one in the shower and one on the sink.

It dries your skin out really badly, which makes it irritated. If you could use a little less (I've never used it specifically, but products like it) it would make the itching go down. Gradually build up to using more of it.
