Best Hydrating Cleanser I Have fFound!
This is the best hydrating cleanser I have found for the price! It doesn't contain any fragrance, which is terrible for your skin and doesn't leave your skin feeling tight. I love that it has hyaluronic acid. I have dry skin and dry patches. I use this cleanser and the CeraVe moisturizer in the tub....

This product left my face dry itchy and irritated.
Usually I am a big fan of Cerave products. Their face lotion and SA lotion for rough and bumpy skin has worked wonders for me and my children with mildly sensitive skin. However this face wash completely burned my skin and left me with red incredibly itchy and painful skin on my face after one ful...

Beware!! This stuff is harsh!
I started using this several months ago because of the good reviews and I wanted a gentle cleanser. I did notice a burning feeling if I left it on too long, but ignored it. A short time later I was having really bad perioral dermatitis and tried everything I could think of to stop it (but still using this "gentle" cleanser). It wasnt until my daughter started using this cleanser and began getting dermatitis as well that I finally figured out it was this cleanser causing all our problems. After stopping it, we are both seeing major improvement. Beware, this stuff is harsh and not for everyone!!
Terrible for sensitive, rosacea prone skin
I tried this face wash for the first time and it completely broke out my face in acne and flared up my rosacea. My face was still red and irritated the following morning. When I washed my face with my regular face wash, it calmed down. I would not recommend this for anybody with sensitive skin.
Gentle cleanser
I have sensitive skin and this is cleansing while being gentle. 4 stars because you have to get makeup off with something else prior to using this - and I don't even wear alot of makeup.
Excellent Cleansing
I really rely on this cleanser to do the job without stripping my skin. I have dry skin and must be careful in choosing which cleansers to us so I don't make the dryness worse. This cleanser is gentle while doing a great job.
Love Love Love Cerave products
It is really great to have Cerave products in travel sizes. Thanks!
