Gentle, high-quality, unscented, targets acne
*I received this product for free and tried it for myself. All of my opinions honest and my own. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo 4% Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser is a total game-changer for anyone seeking a good Benzoyl Peroxide cleanser. It is comparable to the viral "Panoxyl," which is also a Benzoyl Per...

Sits heavy on the skin
I really wanted this cleanser to work. It was my understanding that this cleanser was a "replacement" for the Step-3 Duo Dual Action Acne Treatment cream for the Effaclar line. I really do wish that La Roche Posay would reformulate that cream. The original 3 step system was perfect for my skin and n...

Not for sensitive skin
Although it says it is good for sensitive skin, I would disagree. I used this three nights in a row and here I am with a rash and itchiness on my face and neck. Same thing happened to me with the Murad AHA/BHA exfoliating cleanser, atleast this one wasn't as pricey.
Love this mild wash!
I love that the face wash has benzoy peroxide but at a lower level. Often the washes are 10% and burn my sensitive skin. The is smooth and calming on my skin. Would definitely recommend to anyone with acne but sensitive skin. [I received this product in exchange for my honest review]
Best acne face wash ever
LRP is a respected brand in the skincare industry and is found on shelves all over the united states. This one is a good basic benzoyl peroxide wash that seems about middle of the road strength. Do note however, that in many cases, there have been studies showing that about 2% instead is more gentle while still having the same effectiveness. You may have a "purging" period where the skin gets a little worse before improving, that is normal and typical for many kinds of products like this. Make sure you moisturize with regular use of this. Because it can be drying. I like how the size of this tube is quite generous. No scent to, which is a plus in my book due to always breaking out because of scent in my face washes.
Great for my acne rosacea
Great for my acne rosacea. removes dirt and grime without irritation. Grateful for this cleanser as its effective as panoxyl but more gentler on my skin and moister barrier.
Acne Resurfaced
Another had started clearing my acne and dark spots but I ran out of the product. I had heard good things about this product so I decided to try. Hate I did. My acne is back and at its worst.
