Cetaphil : Gentle Skin Cleanser

my acne was horrible and cetaphil help control it..

I noticed a big improvement with the way my skin feels. Also not greasy at all and I am very PICKY so this one is good. Cleared my forhead but I have been doing the Dan regimen which I love. I altered a little bit but it helped. For all you people, just give it enough time. My 1st day I wanted to give up, but I gave the moisturizer a chance and love it.

I've been using this product for a decade, since I first had minor breakouts as a teenager. Back then, I tried products by brands such as Neutrogena and Dermalogica, and Cetaphil kicked all their asses. I'm still using it, and my skin is doing great. I've had problems getting some people to use the product because they *think* it doesn't feel clean, but that's precisely why it's effective! When skin gets that "squeaky-clean" feel, it's already stripped, which can irritate skin even more. Some people also don't like Cetaphil because it does not foam and has no fragrance -- but again, that's why it works. Foaming agents and fragrance can dry and irritate skin. Lastly, please, no complaints about how it does not remove make-up. Cetaphil was never intended as a make-up remover, especially since a lot of make-up now is made to be tough to remove. Use make-up remover if you use make-up! I really want people to try this because it's worked so well for me! :)

This product didn't work that great for me. My skin is very oily so when i used cetaphil it took away most of the oil, but my skin was oily 15 min later. The container is great because you just twist it and it locks so you don't accidently squirt it on your clothes. Its very mild so if your easily irritated by washes and have normal skin this product is worth trying out.

Its a good cleanser if you have dry sensitive skin. But if yoy have oily skin/combination skin it this is not the best product as it does not remove all the oil ....I learnt that there is another cetaphil for oily/combination skin but I never see it in the shelves in stores...

I liked the way it made my skin feel, soft, moisturized, and refreshed but it almost made my acne worse so i switched to this stuff called basics its great.

-Ive used cetaphil for about a year now- on and off - mainly due to the fact its so damn good for acne. But about 3 months ago i started getting a severe rash on my face after drinking alcohol and if the weather got a bit chilly. Thinking it was something else (allergies, food, even drinking tea) i underwent trials to find out what it was, with no success. In a last ditch effort, i switched facewash- to clearasil would you believe + the effects went away. No kidding. I was fine. Ive tried cetaphil recently to see if it was a 'one off', but in two days and after one beer, there it was, again. Ive chased it up-cetaphil has a chemical called 'sodium lauryl sulphate' thats a well known abrasive-even strong clearasil products use the milder version 'sodium laurETH sulphate'. Im gutted to have to stop to using it+if ur ok, then dont let this put you off! But i thought it best to throw it out there in case anyone is experiencing the same thing!

Gotta give it a try! I was suscribing to a local dermatologist's independant medications and started switching on the day i left for thailand on a holiday. This cleanser managed to kept me acne-free even though i was expecting some to sprout out due to the sudden change in cleanser and coupled with the humid weather in thailand. So far so good, hasnt given me any problems excepts for a few pastules (< 3) Give it a try at least and you should see quite satisfactory results pretty soon!

The product outcome reiterates the title. '¢Gentle cleanser; recommended for sensitive or dry skin types. '¢Do not really recommend if you are looking for this cleanser to clear your skin of acne. '¢Will not cause redness due to irritation. '¢Does not strip the skin. '¢No fragrance. '¢ Quite inexpensive, starting at around $14.99 (Disclaimer: I believe you should alternate between this cleanser and another Cetaphil cleanser [Oily-Skin cleanser] so the skin does not form any resistance to the product.)

If you're looking for a gentle cleanser then this is it.
