Clean & Clear Essentials Self Foam Facial Wash Review

I picked this up on special at the Warehouse and definitely won't be repurchasing.

It comes in a pump bottle which I like and foams up once you dispense it. It cleans your face but leaves it feeling very stripped and dry. It even leaves my hands feeling stripped which goes to show its a pretty harsh product!

I don't have super oily skin so this probably wasn't the best choice of product on my behalf however I'd just like to warn anyone thinking of purchasing it just how strong it is. I would recommend this to only very oily skin types.

While its a 'harsh' product in terms of action, I didn't get any breakouts after using this.

This works well for me, I enjoy the convenience of the pump and it's not heavy on my face and my face feels very clean afterwards. I have very oily skin and use this in the shower in the morning and at night.

Unfortunately I did not have a good experience with this product. I wouldn't say I have sensitive skin - very few products irritate me - but this gave me chemical burns on my chin and cheeks, next to my nose! The rest of my face felt super dry. It's a very harsh formula that smells very heavily of chemicals. No pleasant cover-up scent here! Overall not a recommended product and I am now wary of the entire Clear & Clear line.

This product is great value for money. One pump dispenses a good amount of product to use on face and neck, so you are not using too much. The bottle lasts a considerable length of time due to this. The lather has a nice clean fragrance, and does a good job of cleaning my skin. I dont find it too drying, and my skin feels nice afterwards. It certainly helps prevent breakouts on my combination skin, and this is definately a product I would buy again.

While I used this in the past, recently I purchased this for my newly teen daughter. Great starting cleanser, easy to use, odour is mild, foams up, cleans well & it sturdy in the shower tray. And occasionally I "borrow" it myself. This is mostly on the days where I just need a light face wash or am feeling particularly oily. Well priced & the single pump action means it lasts well.

I ended up using this cleanser when my usual one ran outm texture of the product, but I found it didn't do a good job with getting rid of the breakouts. Over I found this to be an OK cleanser but not the best.

Over .

We've had this product sitting in the shower for quite a while and I recently tried it again.

As a product it does what it says it will do, it foams and it washes the face. It offers nothing spectacular, but for a cheap face wash it was far less chemical smelling and feeling than I expected, though it did still have a bit of that cheap chemical factor.

My skin is combination and reasonably clear, so I can't really comment on acne prevention or dryness. But I feel like this formula could lend itself towards being a little drying.

I have normal to dry skin usually with an oily t-zone.

I bought this product because of its claims about preventing blackheads. I used it twice and each time it dried my skin out so bad that it got extremely itchy and my cheeks and nose started flaking.

I think the drying out had a lot to do with the fact that it's self foaming but I did have a lot of high hopes for it because I have a massive issue with blackheads on my nose.

I was very disappointed, it didn't work for me and I will definitely not repurchase.

That is not to say that it won't work for other people, because evidently it has, but I think it's better suited or people with more oily skin.

I wouldn't use again or recommend as it made my skin feel really tight and dry after use. I gave it a good go but didn't like it and find my skin to be oily to combination.

This felt absolutely awful on my face! It felt like I'd rubbed chemicals all over my face, and made my skin irritated and red. This product made my face feel really raw, and dry. It then went shiny and oily. I didn't see any improvement in my skin, if anything this further irritated any pimples I had. It didn't affect my blackheads at all, and eventually made my face more oily/shiny, not less! The Self Foam Facial Wash didn't meet any of it claims, it was a total disappointment. I would certainly NEVER purchase this product again. It's one of the worst products I have ever put on my face.
