Thank you!
*long review, but hopefully it'll help someone like me!* I'm 31, but when I was 22 I was diagnosed with cystic hormonal acne. absolutely nothing topical worked for me, and I was put on an oral medication that has kept me *mostly* clear for nearly a decade. specific times of the month, I usually wou...

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...

Doubles as a face wash and body wash 🧼
I've really been enjoying this cleanser, especially as a body wash. While it works well on the face, I've found it's even more effective as part of my body care routine, especially during the summer. The texture is super light, lathers beautifully, and doesn't feel overly harsh or drying. It absorbs easily into the skin and leaves everything feeling clean without that stripped feeling. Definitely a staple in my shower routine now, especially for those breakout-prone areas. Simple, effective, and reliable.
Great BPO cleanser
This is a great benzoyl peroxide cleanser made at a strength suitable for daily use without compromising the skin barrier. I use this every morning as I am acne-prone. Helps keep acne at bay
Didn't fully use it
I received this product in exchange for my honest review: I used it once and then stopped because of the controversy this brand and product have gone through. Honestly I got scared. When I used it, it did its job in cleansing but my face felt super dry after. Mind you I have oily skin.
Must have for Acne Prone Skin Type!
This La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo Cleanser is honestly one of the few acne cleansers that actually works without totally drying my skin out. It has a creamy, non-foaming texture that feels gentle going on, but you can tell it's doing its job. It helps calm active breakouts pretty quickly and keeps new ones from popping up, especially if you're consistent. It does have benzoyl peroxide, so I started slow to avoid dryness, but with moisturizer it's totally manageable. Overall, it's a solid go to if you're dealing with acne and want something effective but not harsh.
Strength, that's not for sensitive skin.
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] It's not a foaming wash, but I like that it had the benzoyl peroxide to be a strong acne fighting cleanser without the prescription. The only issue is it will irritate sensitive skin and irritated the crease of my nose. Otherwise, it think it's a good cleanser for people who need extra strength washes.
