Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel Cleanser

I’ve been using the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel Cleanser, and it’s a solid choice for anyone with oily, acne-prone, or combination skin. This cleanser provides a deep yet gentle cleanse without leaving the skin feeling tight or dry. Pros: ✔ Effectively Removes Excess Oil – Leaves the skin feeling clean and refreshed without stripping it. ✔ Gentle & Soap-Free Formula – Contains zinc PCA, which helps regulate oil production and reduce breakouts. ✔ Soothes & Calms Skin – Infused with thermal spring water, making it great for sensitive skin. ✔ Non-Comedogenic & Fragrance-Free – Won’t clog pores, and the mild scent is pleasant without being overpowering. Cons: ✖ Not Hydrating Enough for Dry Skin – If your skin is combination with dry areas, you may need a more hydrating cleanser. ✖ Might Not Remove Heavy Makeup – Best as a morning cleanser or a second cleanse if you wear makeup. Final Thoughts: If you struggle with excess oil, shine, or breakouts, this is a great daily cleanser to keep your skin balanced. It cleans deeply without irritation, making it ideal for sensitive, acne-prone skin.

This is hands-down the best facial cleanser I’ve used. It leaves my skin feeling clean but not stripped, and it helps control oil really well. Gentle enough for daily use, foams nicely, and keeps my skin balanced. Perfect for anyone with oily or acne-prone skin — definitely a staple in my routine.

I'm over 50 and I have never found something that removes makeup this easily and is so delicate on the skin. Buy this, you'll thank yourself later. Even if it's just for the time saving while removing makeup, but also for the way it restores your skin over time because there's less wear when removing your makeup. NO SCRUBBING OR STRETCHING or frustration when trying to remove eye liner or mascara. This works so well!! NO BURNING OR STINGING. The scent is very low but not wonderful. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Minimizes my pores, I love it! Not too harsh and good for everyday

I love this cleanser! It leaves my skin feeling clean, fresh, and not stripped at all. It’s gentle enough for daily use but effective enough to help with oiliness and breakouts. The texture is light, it foams well, and a little goes a long way. My skin looks clearer and feels smoother since using it. Definitely a staple in my routine.

I love this easy cleanser for oily skin. It leaves my face very soft, fresh, and shine-free. It has a pleasant scent, and I get a really good lather with very little. I'm satisfied with the appearance of my face. I'm just not giving it 5 stars because it doesn't deeply clean my pores. I've been using this bottle for 3 months now and I'm barely halfway through. I think the price is excellent.

Great face wash. I have oily skin and acne prone for being 50, but this leaves my skin clean, not dry and doesn't cause acne. I would recommend.

The best face wash for removing makeup and oils. Can be a bit drying but I moisturize after and I love this
