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 now I'm back to breaking out at 34 yrs old, like I did when I was 15 and stressing about it isn't helping. I've never done well with cream cleansers as a combo-oily, sensitive skin user. I don't feel that they penetrate well enough through daily oil and grime, even after doing an oil/makeup removing cleanser. With that said, only using the SA Cleanser and Toner with the retinoid gel as a substitute step 3 isn't cutting it - I also add in Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid and Retinol serums into that regimen. However, in an effort to use up the bottle (since this is a higher cost brand), I've been using the cream cleanser in the mornings and the gel cleanser in the evenings. I haven't seen a change in the last 3-4 months since I bought it. LRP has been really good to my skin in the last 5-6 years, and I really hope they are working to reformulate the BP cream to move back to the original 3-step system for the Effaclar line. I really don't want to have to do research for another skin care brand and go through the whole process again of seeing if it works.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Packaging is like any other laroche posay product. The texture is a little beady. But doable. The scent smells like any other benzoyl peroxide cleanser. And it works amazing. It controls my acne and immediately kills it as well
