Viscosity is not what it used to be

I have been using Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser for over 35 years. It is NOT the same formula that I remember. The viscosity is not what it used to be. This once creamy and effective product has disappeared only to be replaced by a very watery substance that falls through my fingers. I think this is...

No longer for sensitive skin

Submitted 5 years ago

By BR

From California

I thought for sure I had a bad batch or a mislabeled product after I washed my face in the shower and emerged with a bright red face that was warm to the touch and very tender. Reading these other reviews has made me realize that this wasn't just a fluke, but an unfortunate change in the product. I have used Cetaphil for decades, ever since as a teenager I found that most products for "regular or combo" skin were too irritating and drying, but this is no longer a product for sensitive skin. Very disappointing.

Interesting seeing many negative reviews. I honestly prefer this formula. It feels very gentle on my skin and I haven't had any issues. Definitely worth trying.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Why change something that was great?

The old formula was great for my sensitive skin, but with the formula change and addition of niacinamide, which my skin gets irritated from, I unfortunately can't use this facewash anymore

Lovely Cleanser for Dry, Sensitive Skin

By SnoWhite in the Desert

Describe Yourself Very fair, dry, sensitive skin

This cleanser is beautiful. There are a lot of comments in regards to the new formula being worse than the old, that has not been my experience. I have always had dry skin and was previously using the CeraVe hydrating cleanser; however, I recently developed perioral dermatitis and my Dr. recommended this cleanser in conjunction with a topical prescription. From the first use this cleanser alleviated all the dryness and irritation I've experienced. It was the first time in months that I have felt any relief. It leaves the skin clean but hydrated. One note, this WILL NOT clean off makeup or sunscreen. You will need to use a cleansing oil, balm, or micellar water prior to using this cleanser to remove any makeup. I use Banila Co. clean it zero cleansing balm. For those that have experienced negative side affects due to the new formulation I'd suggest the Vanicream Gentle Facial Cleanser. It didn't work for me but has worked wonders for my younger sister (her skin is more sensitive than mine) and is at a similar price point to this product. I'm also using the Cetaphil moisturizing lotion along with this cleanser and they pair very well together. If you need reviews for other products to help alleviate skin issues you may be experiencing, Dr. Dray, a board certified dermatologist on YouTube, has TONS of unbiased reviews that may help you find what you're looking for. I'd also suggest going to a dermatologist if that is feasible for you; though I realize, with insurance being what it is, it may not be for many. I wish you the best of luck with your skin journey!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

CHANGE IT BACK

I used cetaphil gentle skin cleanser for years on my sensitive skin. this new version gave me contact dermatitis and really irritated my skin. I switched to another brand. They are losing a lot of loyal customers/ money with this new version. its awful.
