*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...

Fights Acne Without Stripping Skin

Submitted 2 years ago

By Mikayla

A Solid Cleanser That Gets the Job Done The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo Dual Action Acne Cleanser is seriously impressive. The texture is smooth and creamy, and it lathers nicely without feeling too harsh or drying. After washing, my skin feels really clean but not stripped, which is a huge plus. It does a great job at calming down active breakouts, especially those stubborn red bumps that usually take forever to fade. It's not an instant fix, but with consistent use, there's a noticeable difference in how quickly breakouts clear up. It can be a little drying if used too often, so starting slow might be a good idea if you have sensitive skin. Overall, this cleanser feels gentle yet effective, and it's definitely helped keep my breakouts under control. If you're looking for something that fights acne without wrecking your skin, this one's worth a try. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

SAVED. MY. SKIN.

I was fortunate enough to get this product for free to review right before my sisters wedding. I was STRESSING about being in photos with my face broken out the way it normally is. My acne has been inescapable for the past 15 years, but I used this cleanser for about a month and noticed some pretty serious changes in my skin. My texture got SO much better on my face and shoulders (another problem area) and I stopped having one new spot pop up after the other. I finally had some RELIEF and spots got the chance to heal. I've never found a holy grail product before, but this one is killer! The price is way less than I'd consider paying for the result I got. I didn't experience any issues with the packaging leaking or collecting water in the cap, despite keeping it in the shower, so I think it'll be good to the last drop. Super minimal smell—not chemically, and clearly not fragranced. I'm SO grateful to have finally found something that works!!

I have been using this product for three weeks now. So far I am very content with this cleanser. My skin is very prone to acne and since using this cleanser my skin has been breaking out less than usual. I plan to continue using this to form my final opinion.
