In LOVE with this product! Super soothing product :)

Pros:

soothing
does not strip pores of oil
cleans the face leaving it soft

Cons:

none

I love this product, I wish I had of found this cleanser sooner! It does not strip my face of oils and I can feel my skin does not get irritated after I use it. I would recommend to any of my friends who are not happy with their cleanser they are currently using :)

Pros:

Face feels clean
Make redness go down
Feels gentle on my skin

Cons:

None so far

I have only been using Cetaphil for one day and yes perhaps I shouldn't be jumping to conclusions but it has already seemed to have done wonders for my skin. I have damaged skin due to a bad experience with using proactive and already I see improvements. The redness is going down. I would wake up every day with a new pimple but none, so far and none seem to be forming. My old one aren't sore or flaky anymore. I look forward to continuing using it. I would love to get my clean skin back again.

Pros:

It cleanses your skin to the point where its really smooth.

Cons:

It dries up a little and a nice lotion might do the final trick.

I started using Cetaphil because my doctor recommended it. I have a lot of spots on my skin due to the Sun and he wanted me to take care of my skin. Since the first time I took it, the product made me skin really smooth, but it dried it up a little. So I waited for my oil glands to produce a little oil and was good as new. I recommend this product to people who want their skin healthy.

Pros:

Gentle, Affordable, Easily Purchased at any Store and Scentless, Great for everday routine.

Cons:

Might be too Light for Severe Acne, Must be Used Consistantly Doesn't Remove MakeUp, does not unplugged pores.

Cetaphil is a VERY light cleanser that doesn't foam up or give you that deep scrub. However, it's a really great everyday face wash that leaves your skin clean and soft. Best to use it twice a day (morning and night) with additional products such as a scrub (once a week), toner and/or moisturizer. It probably wouldn't work well on its own with severe acne. However, I've used many other types of face wash (from high end to drug store) and I this has certainly approve my skin (less blotchy and dry). The key is to to be consistant with your routine.

Pros:

Very gentle. Smoothes on and washes off easily. Very agreable with a user that has rosacea(redness,inflammation.) This even can be used without water. Just a towel or wipe which allows you to use on the move.

Cons:

None

I have tried it all. The best move I ever made was acting on my dermatologist's suggestion to wash with Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser twice a day then follow with topical medications. No conflict with the topicals at all. It is cheap too. I will be using this product for life. Good luck.

Pros:

moisturizes skin, gentle, water isn't required

Cons:

can't think of any (unless you need a cleanser that lathers well)

I tried a few sensitive skin cleansers, but they all do the same thing. At first they seem gentle, but towards the end of the bottle, my face is dry and flaky if I forget to moisturize. Cetaphil does the moisturizing for me, so I don't have to worry about covering every last inch of my face with moisturizer. I always use it without water. Just gently rub it in your skin for 10-15 seconds, and tissue it off. Great for travel.

Gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin
This cleanser is a godsend to those of us who are using any kind of topical cream with a drying active ingredient. There's a reason dermatologists recommend this cleanser above all others.
