Pros Skin is softer
Skin is smoother
Acne is less apparent
Doesn't dry out skin
Cons Must use one to get off make up, then again as a cleanser. Still does not dry out skin.
Bottom line This is the best cleanser I have ever used. I kept hearing rave reviews about it FOR MONTHS, but just thought about all the other products that people loved but didn't work for my skin.

Started the regimen and I have to say this cleanser is just a miracle worker. My skin improved in about 2 days.
Price paid $10.79

Pros - Gentle on skin
- Simple ingredients
- doesn't dry or make skin oily
- dry acne
Cons Non-soapy
Bottom line I have been using cetaphil for more than 2years so I think it deserved a good review from me. Initially I didn't think much of it when I first tried it. I remembered that time I gave up on using other harsh cleansers, stop using doctor's medication, supplements and also all make-ups because it doesn't help at all. I suffered moderately severe acne for more than 2years by then.

Within 2 months of using, I noticed most of the acne have been dried out. My skin have been cleared ever since, save for the occasional 1-2 pimple that pop up on my monthly cycle.

I have been faithful to Cetaphil ever since and am quite confident with my skin that I stopped using any make up except for lip gloss. After my face is cleared... then I started using milk moisturizer and sunblock again.

I highly recommend people at least give it a try... but try to cut back on other harsh products at the same time too.

Pros Doesnt strip Skin, Feels Great, One of the only cleansers that doesnt leave me RED and DRY,Non-irritating
Cons Wierd consistency, sometimes feels like a film maybe on the skin, but i need this film of lipids honestly
Bottom line Every time i try to switch cleansers i end up back at Cetaphil gentle, I use atralin and finacea and this is the only thing i can use that helps my sensitivities, Thank God for this!!

Pros - smells good
- nice pump so easy to get product
Cons - didnt improve my acne, actually worsened it =(
- feels like im washing my face in lotion and not with a soapy cleanser
Bottom line I wish I could rave about this product like everyone else, but I honestly feel like every time I used this product that I was washing my face in lotion. Then I thought maybe I actually bought the lotion bottle instead and was using that instead of the cleanser, but no I DID buy the cleanser product.

My face broke out , like pretty BADLY!!!! and I told myself I would never, NEVER ever use any cetaphil product again... that is until my friend gave me the bar soap of Cetaphil version of the gentle cleanser to try for free... OMG THAT stuff worked. I Love, LOVE the Cetaphil gentle cleanser BAR SOAP soooo much!!! and that product actually made my skin clear up drastically in 2 days (read my review if interested).. so if this product doesnt work for you, then go try the bar soap instead.

Pros -Very gentle

Pros -Gentle
-Fragrance free
-Non-drying
-Doesn't deplete skin surfaces natural defences.
Cons -Unusual texture
-Not totally effective for removing make-up
Bottom line Best cleanser ever. It feels weird on the skin but is super gentle. The most gentle cleanser I've ever used, less irritating than foam cleansers. If your acne is severe then I highly recommend this product. Purchased 3 bottles now, never stuck with a facial cleanser any longer. I Order it online because can't buy it in stores where I live. Expensive to have it mailed but its well worth it. Nothing beats this cleanser! Many cleansers try to sell you the idea that you can scrub away your acne. This is the biggest con in cosmetic advertising. I've bought hundreds of acne fighting cleansers. This cleanser has best assisted in the prevention of acne. No cleansers rid you of acne. So this is the best cleanser ever(that I've used)!

Pros - non-drying
- non-greasy
- gentle
- keeps my skin clear(ish)
Cons - awkward consistency
- doesn't remove makeup very well
Bottom line this is the only cleanser that I have used that I like enough to keep using. It keeps my skin as clear as possible without over drying it. Sometimes I don't even have to moisturize. I've tried other facial cleansers but keep going back to this one.
