La Roche-Posay Effaclar Cleansing Gel 400ml

My pharmacist recommended the cleanser to me back then because I had severe acne. The cleanser has helped me very well with my acne. It cleanses the face thoroughly without drying out the skin. I've always used it in the morning and evening.

I have oily combination skin, and finding a cleanser that doesn't dry out but really leaves my skin clean isn't that easy. But this gel was a real success. It refreshes a lot, cleans super well and leaves my face with that feeling of “well-groomed skin”. In addition, something I love is that it also works for pimples on the body, especially on the back. I use it in the shower and I really noticed the difference. Even my boyfriend started using it because it works for him and he appreciates it!

It's good for very oily skin, but I wouldn't choose this for dry and even combination skin. It dries out your skin a lot and can even make your skin peel, at least that was the case with me. But if you have oily skin and acne, I definitely recommend it.

I used La Roche Posay cleansing gel for a long time during a period where I had a lot of acne and irritation. With my dry skin, I had the feeling that my skin was being cleansed, but I noticed that it was not entirely suitable for my acne-prone skin. I did hear a lot of positive things from people with skin types other than mine. So I don't really recommend it to people who have a dry, acne-prone skin type.
