Rated 5 out of 5 by from Greatly reduced and controlled my breakouts I have a similar experience to an earlier reviewer re: hormonal adult acne at 30. Before my hormonal acne, I previously had issues with dry skin, so I was a little worried about picking this product up and ruining my moisture barrier. Very pleased to report I haven’t experienced stripping, and while my hormonal issues are ongoing, this wash has significantly improved and helped control the acne. I started alternating between my gentle cleanser and this one every second day in the first couple of weeks and have worked my way up to nightly (and morning sometimes if I have a workout). I’ve only been on it for about 5 weeks now so I have a long way to go, but I’m sure there’ll be increased benefits over time in tandem with some prescriptions to tackle the underlying hormonal issues.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for menopause skin I’m 45 and currently suffering from hormonal breakouts brought on by peri menopause and this and their moisturiser has worked well. Highly recommend for breakout skin.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Game Changer My dermatologist recommended this wash twice daily in conjunction with the Effaclar duo plus moisturiser for my new onset adult hormonal acne (I’m 30). I can’t begin to explain how good this wash is. My skin is usually very oily and acne prone and it’s helped control the cystic acne around my mouth and chin dramatically in just 3 weeks! It’s not drying or stripping and my skin feels clean and refreshed after using it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfectly pleasant One of the nicest smelling products on the market for its purpose: not 'perfumey' and not clinical, and it has a gentle tingle.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth it One of the best cleansers I’ve used. I was recommended it on TikTok and the benefits are definitely valid.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Acne fighting cleanser! This cleanser is amazing if you suffer from acne or cystic acne, it helps remove all of those bumps that you can feel under the skin, it brings them up to the surface so they can clear up! It’s a gentle exfoliant, so if you use it every day, it literally exfoliates the surface acne away.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Skin feels great, have been using twice a week with good results. This has helped clear up acne while not irritating my dry skin

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Effective! I am in my mid-forties and I have oily, slightly olive skin, which used to be prone to breakouts, but is now smooth and completely free of wrinkles. I have used up two tubes of this product, which I've purchased both in-store and online. It is an effective formula for sensitive skin. I love the design of the tube, which dispenses the product in modest amounts and in its entirety; when I got towards the end of the tube, I didn't have to cut it open to get any residual product out, it emptied perfectly, and you can see this, as the tube is transparent. Both of these factors, (physical ease of use and transparency of packaging), are holy grails for me as a consumer! Very good product design in terms of packaging. It doesn't sting and my skin is left feeling and looking smooth. As I had considerable pigmentation prior to using it, I noticed more than 50% reduction, I'd say close to 80% reduction in pigmentation, which continues to improve over time. So it exceeds the manufacturer's estimates its effectiveness, in my experience. Another big tick there. I like the fact that in addition to salicylic acid, it also contains zinc PCA, which helps heal and stabilise the skin. It lasts about four months or so with twice daily use. Going back for another tube soon. I highly recommend this product to maintain skin clarity and even out skin tone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth it! I have been using this product for about a year now. It really has helped me so much with my skin. My skin is far from perfect and I still get the occasional break out but even now the breakouts aren’t bad. Genuinely recommend this product, it’s made me feel confident again :)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Buy this if you have acne! its amazing! I had deep cystic hormonal acne and after using this new pimples stopped forming and my current pimples got less and less. After around 4 weeks of using this my skin looks amazing and clear - just a few left over scars from those old pimples. Use this with the LaRoche-posay Effaclar duo plus (thats what i did) and its a acne clearing combo. Those two products cleared my skin when nothing else has.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic Face Wash Helps gets my imperfections in control. I really have oily skin. I won't recommend to sensitive skin, this will be bit stronger for you. The blue one is good for sensitive to normal skin.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Textured/problem skin must have! I can never be bothered with reviews BUT OMG MAJOR PSA- Get it! I want to help others like this cleanser has helped me so far already! I’m a huge skin care fanatic yet have always struggled with textured skin/closed comedones, black heads, pimples here and there etc. I feel like I’ve tried it all, even gone down the fungal acne route. I just come across this cleanser randomly on a TikTok and thought why not? Even though I love my cetaphil (which I still use). Maybe for some reason I was drawn to it because whilst this brand seems decent, I still viewed it as an expensive hype and I find their products confusing. Take my money though!! This product is actually so cheap for what it is. I swear it has in only just a week made such a difference. My skin feels amazing after I cleanse with this. I use it every night. It’s very refreshing and tingly. Not abrasive, just smooth and sudsy. A little goes a long way. I can’t believe I’m potentially going to have smooth skin! It’s also very even toned and just so clean and clear. It’s added to my holy grail list. I find using it with Paulas Choice aha and toner has been a great combination

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Question I have dry skin and have bought the gel cleanser to use at night after I take off the make up and before my moisturiser. Would that be ok??
Date published: 2021-05-03
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Please, please never discontinue this product. La Roche Posay Effaclar Micro Peeling Purifying Gel is a fantastic product that has changed my life. Been using for about 10 months and my skin has never been so good. I am in love with this product and if it is ever discontinued I would die. I love you LR-P. Thank you so much.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gentle Hello. The cleanser ain’t to harsh and is pleasant to use. Can I ask, I hear salicylic acid works best in PH lower than 4, and is more effective if it is left on overnight instead of washing it off. Given this product is at pH 5.5 and it’s a wash off, how is it still effective, do you have any leave on peels with salicylic acid?
Date published: 2020-10-07
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Cleanser, but .... This actually works really great, my skin feels so smooth! But I’m confused — is this an exfoliant, or a cleanser? I bought this with the impression that it would be an exfoliant, but I didn’t feel any dead skin coming off, so is it actually a cleanser then? Nevertheless, it’s a great cleanser and I’d recommend it if you’re struggling with oil and large pores.
