La Roche Posay® Effaclar Micro-Peeling Purifying Gel Cleanser Reviews

I don't like this cleanser very much. It makes it feel like I am washing my face with soap. After washing the cleanser off it makes my skin feel like rubber, almost too clean. Don't really recommend this product.

i use this in my second step of double cleansing and its the best cleanser I've ever tried. it doesn't strip my skin but does an amazing job at making my skin feel soft and clean. its on the more expensive side but in my onion its worth it.

This product definitely works! I used to use it everyday until it broke me out, and then realised I had just been using it wrong! If you have sensitive skin like me, use it once a week. Otherwise, you’ll end up destroying your skins barrier!! After using it, you’ll feel a slight tingly sensation, but nothing too harsh.

I’ve been using this cleanser for the last year. I initially tried the other gel cleanser in the range before switching to this one, and I prefer this one. A little goes a long way with the gel, so it’s great value for money. It foams up nicely and leaves my skin feeling slightly tingly fresh (not dry). My skin hasn’t fully cleared up, but I do see an improvement in my skin and the occasional breakout that does pop up clears much quicker than before. I will repurchase again when the tube runs out!

Packaged in a beautiful turquoise coloured 200ml squeeze tube, La Roche Posay Effaclar Micro-Peeling Purifying Gel Cleanser is perfect for oily, blemish prone skin. The scientifically proven formula with LHA and Salicylic Acid micro-exfoliates and purifies the skin helping to eliminate dead skin cells, deeply unclogs pores and reduces excess sebum visibly reducing the appearance of blackheads and pimples, and leaves skin feeling soft and clean.

I was surprised to find that the gel was clear and free from any micro-exfoliating particles. For some reason, I was expecting a grainy exfoliator instead of an acid exfoliator. After saying that, the acid is much more gentle on the skin than exfoliating particles would be.

It says it's suitable for use on both the face and body, so I used it on my face and tested it out on my husband's back, where he's prone to get a breakout after surfing in a wetsuit. It worked wonders on his back, and my face cleared up so well. I had the best complexion I've ever had while using this product, and would definitely recommend this Effaclar Micro-Peeling Purifying Gel Cleanser to anyone who is struggling with acne, pimples or is prone to breakouts.

This cleanser went a long way, I also used it as a shaving gel every now and then and it worked really well. It left my skin feeling refreshed and healthy. It was gentle and quite moisturizing which is great! It was easy to use, the packaging was good it didn't leak and I could get every last drop out. I really enjoyed using this and will purchase again.
