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.

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 :(
Not good
I have really oily skin, but this made my skin really dry. It says it's fragrance free, but it have fragrance in it and its super strong which made me break out
Good for oily skin...
I've read a few reviews and there's quite a bit of people complaining about the scent of this product. I personally like the smell, it's a fresh clean scent and doesn't seem so strong to me, so I don't understand what people are complaining about? I have oily skin, larger pores, not sensitive, and also not sensitive to scents and this product worked well for me. I love the consistency of the gel as well and the amount of product will last me a long time. Overall, I would buy again. I wouldn't recommend for sensitive, dry skinned people. It might be too strong.
