So far, I have used this foaming cleanser all week. The cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean, free of the day's mineral makeup products and removes the oily, shiny skin I have very refreshed and cleansed. My face felt clean, soft and not tight. I am in my upper 40s and I don't want products that make my skin feel too dry or tight. This cleanser leaves my skin feeling soothed, clean and fresh.
I am also ordering their Effaclar MToner to complement the cleanser and I will slowly build up the Effaclar line into my skin routine, including the eye cream. For someone who has had those cystic, hormonal big red bump pimples, I hope this will be my answer to finally get things under control. My dermatologist gave me Retin A Micro to put on my giant pimples. All the Retin A did was dry it up a bit, flake my skin along the surrounding area and then as the pimple dries up, it makes it super dark and leaving me with this very dark pigmented scar. So, I quit using the Retin A too. I bought the Effaclar Duo acne treatment because it has peroxide which I hope will lighten up the pimple and its scars.
I'll have to update this review after a month or two of using the La Roche-Posay products. But so far, I like the way my skin looks and feel.
Update: Feb. 13, 2013:
I returned this product as it was overly drying to my oily skin. It was very effective at drying the oily skin; actually too much for me. Perhaps for a teenager with extreme oily and acne skin types.

Firstly, its gentle formulation is a standout feature. Suitable for sensitive skin, it cleanses effectively without causing irritation or dryness, making it a reliable choice for daily use. The absence of harsh ingredients ensures a soothing experience, particularly for those prone to sensitivity or redness.
Moreover, the face wash's effectiveness in removing impurities and excess oil is noteworthy. Despite its mild nature, it lathers well and effectively cleanses the skin without stripping away its natural moisture barrier. This leaves the skin feeling clean, refreshed, and balanced after each use.
Additionally, the inclusion of La Roche-Posay's signature Thermal Spring Water adds an extra layer of hydration and comfort to the cleansing experience. This unique ingredient helps to soothe and soften the skin, contributing to a refreshed and revitalized complexion.
The packaging is practical and user-friendly, with a convenient pump dispenser that ensures easy and mess-free application. The product's dermatologist-tested and fragrance-free formula further adds to its appeal, making it suitable for a wide range of skin types, including those with sensitivities or allergies.
However, while the face wash excels in cleansing and soothing the skin, it may not be the most effective option for removing heavy makeup or waterproof products. In such cases, a double cleanse or additional makeup remover may be necessary.
In summary, La Roche-Posay's face wash is a reliable and gentle cleanser that effectively cleanses the skin without compromising its delicate balance. Suitable for daily use, it offers a refreshing and soothing experience, making it a staple in any skincare routine.
