- Q
Can I use this cleanser everyday?
- Asked by Rose
- Official Answer By La Roche-Posay - BEHello there! While Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel Cleanser is designed for oily skin, whether you can use it every day depends on your individual skin's tolerance and needs. Some people with very oily skin find it beneficial to use daily, while others with more sensitive or combination skin might prefer to use it every other day or a few times a week. It’s always a good idea to start slowly and observe how your skin reacts. If you experience any dryness or irritation, reduce the frequency of use. If you’re unsure, consulting a dermatologist is always recommended. They can provide personalized advice based on your specific skin type and concerns.Was this answer helpful to you

Good cleanser
I started using this cleanser after running out of my regular one, and so far it has not disappointed me. My skin feels clean, but not squeaky clean, after using the cleanser, although it takes me a while to foam it. It lathers well but doesn't foam a lot from my experience. If I have a pimple, this...

Had high hopes
i have very bad acne prone oily skin and have struggle with my skin for years. I have heard so much about this brand so I decided to try it out. After about a week of using this my skin is very irritated and extremely dry and painful on my upper cheeks. I was so hopeful.

Effective Cleanser for Oily Skin Only
Great for oily skin like me. It cleans thoroughly, but follow up with a hydrating moisturizer. Not for dry or normal skin; this isn't a one-size-fits-all on all skin types. If you have sensitive skin, avoid. Best cleanser I've used.
Wanted to love, smell was awful.
I love most if not all La Roche Posay products. But this one, the scent is awful. I tried it a few times, i liked the clean feel after using it, but the smell of the product is not pleasant. Such a bummer.
Dried my skin out
I was looking forward to this product as I have oily skin, but within a few uses, my skin became extremely dry and patchy which hasn't happed with the other La Roche Posay face wash that I've used many times before. I'd recommend sticking to the other oily skin facial cleanser because this one is way too harsh.
wanted to love this but didn't
Just a week after using this my skin broke out like crazy. At first I thought it was my skin getting used to a new cleanser but this was not the case. I really wanted to love this product but unfortunately I do not and ill be going back to my old cleanser.
Broke me out like never before
I have oily skin and struggle a lot with acne, however I've rarely suffered any breakouts from skincare products I've tried in the past. This product was the exception. After using it for a week or so I started experiencing the most painful breakout above my lips (area right under my nose). The pimples even came in clusters!! It was horrible, and as soon as I stopped using this specific product and went back to my previous cleanser my face cleared up. Not to mention the smell was also disgusting. Will never purchase again :(
