Your questions, answered

Oily, breakout-prone skin but every acne wash leaves me tight and flaky - what's different here?

The balance is the whole selling point: salicylic acid treats breakouts and helps prevent new ones per the US labelling, while the oil-free, soap-free base rinses clean without over-drying - fresh and smooth rather than squeaky and tight. It's a cult US cleanser for a reason.

Morning and night, or is twice a day too much?

It's designed for both ends of the day: wet your face, massage a small amount over skin avoiding the eyes, rinse thoroughly. If you're also using leave-on treatments like benzoyl peroxide, watch how your skin feels and drop to once daily if it starts protesting. Follow the label directions closely, and ask a pharmacist if you're unsure whether it suits you.

Does it take makeup off or do I need a separate cleanser first?

It cuts through dirt, oil and make-up in one go, which is why it works as a genuine start-and-end-of-day wash. Heavy or waterproof eye makeup may still want a dedicated remover first - keep this one away from the eye area.

Is the grapefruit thing just marketing?

The acne-fighting comes from the salicylic acid, but the pink grapefruit scent and vitamin C-rich burst turn a chore into something you actually look forward to - and a wash you enjoy is a wash you'll use consistently, which is what clears skin.
