Not a bad cleanser

I don't have overly sensitive skin but have tried this twice. Once when I had a really dry rash and the doctor gave me some samples and again when my flat mate had it and raved about it. I found it was good as a cleanser, it removed my makeup well and I liked the foamy texture but it didn't do much for my dry skin. I have heard really good things about it so would probably buy it to see if it had better effects when used over a longer period of time.

High Hopes...

I bought this product with high expctations. I have heard wonderful things about it. I bought it from a pharmacy for about $19.99. I used it for about 4-5 months and didn't notice a change in my skin what so ever. I had to use a foaming cleanser before I used the cetaphil cleanser to get the dirt and leftover makeup off as cetaphil didn't cleanse my skin as well as it should...

This product is defiantly in my products I regret buying basket. I believe there are a lot of better products out there that are half the price.

Not sure about this product

I have had problem skin in the past and when I bought this I was excited to give it a try but it just didn't really do anything for my skin. Yes it is a gentle formula, it didnt aggrigate my acne but it did somewhat sting my skin, and I do not usually have very sensitive skin which I thought was strange. It also didn't cleanse my face very well leaving traces of left over makeup on my skin. I'm not sure if I would recommend this product or not because for some people it seems to really work on their skin but for me, it just didn't help.

not what i want in a face wash

right, so i'll tell you straight out that i'm lazy when it comes to washing my face and removing makeup. i want to go from makeup to no-makeup in one step...hence the need for a good face wash. and this one doesn't do it for me. it feels like I'm "washing" my face with moisturiser. i don't have sensitive skin so i don't "need" this, and i just find it's not what i want from a face WASH =D

Back to basics

I don't like it very much i felt it had a slimy texture to it and didn't find it foamed up more just smearing it over my face it didn't really take my make up off very well.

It Doesn't have much of a smell to it, when I haven't had makeup on it has left my skin feeling cleaner but slightly tighter feeling.

All in all I'm not a fan but I'm sure the kids will end up using the rest of it when I'm not looking. I think because of the packaging and price I think it would be a good family face wash if you had younger ones.wantkng to get into skin care

It's fine..

How else can I describe this other than with lack luster terns of fine and ok. I was recommended Cetaphil by friends when I was struggling with acne and angry skin. And while this cleanser is gentle and didn't agitate my skin further, I also didn't really see any improvement in my acne as promised. I finished the bottle but didn't bother buying again. While the price, size and accessibility is good, I moved onto to something else looking for better results.

Well... That didn't work

I bought this in hopes it would help with my acne. Unfortunately it did nothing for me. It was nice and creamy and didn't have a fragrance which was nice. It would be good for a teenager with teenage acne rather than an adult with hormonal acne

Neither here nor there

I have sensitive skin so my dermatologist recommended this product. It's not great at removing makeup, even lightly applied makeup - every time I've tried it, I'm left with a slightly greasy film, and my makeup has hardly been removed. So I've had to use a foamy cleanser first then follow it with the Cetaphil Cleanser, and that seems to work ok.

Not my fav and not a fan of the product smell

I want to like this product, it's so popular and developed by dermatologists, but I can't get over the pharmaceutical smell and gritty bits.

The product is light weight, liquid with gritty bits. I find the smell overpowering, thought I can't place it so I refer to it as pharmaceutical. It's not pleasant for me. I also find I need to clean my face twice to get the foundation off, which is double the time to clean and deal with the product. Although I do like that's it fragrance-free, still there are many of other fragrance-free facial cleansers out there for me.

I keep giving it a try (about once year) as the product does last long, and it doesn't dry my skin.

I guess not all beauty products are beautiful to use :P
