My holy grail cleanser!

I love cetaphil cleanser! It is definitely my all time favourite fce wash. I have suffered with acne all through my teenage years, and tried all the so called 'acne' products on the market. Because cetaphil isn't advertised as treating acne I was a bit sceptical upon using it but after a week i saw a huge improvement! My skin is now completely clear, and I wouldn't use anything else! It is also not drying on your skin so it doesn't feel like it is harming your skin. Love it!

Tips: If you use it to wash makeup off I recommend washing your face twice as it is a gental cleanser and usually doesn't get all traces of foundation off after one use

Best cleanser i've tried

I cannot rave about this enough. It cleared up my acne so quick and just leaves my skin feeling super clean without drying it out. It is so gentle but it removes light makeup. I use my skinfood wipes and mineral oil to remove my makeup and then double cleanse with this cleanser. I just love it and it's great value for money too. I got the gentle skin cleanser but there is also one for oily skin. I have combo skin so didn't wanna get that just incase it dried out my skin. This one is perfect for dry or combo skin and it works great for my oily t zone too.

Great cleanser - need to use a cloth

I use this cleanser at night to remove make up and cleanse before bed and I use the Oily Skin version in the shower in the morning. I find it cleans off make up fine but I rub it on for quite a while and then use a wet warm face cloth to remove it - I find it won't remove the make up as well if I just rinse off and my skin doesn't feel as clean. If I've been out and wearing heavier makeup then I sometimes will cleanse twice. It has a nice thin consistency and is easy to massage in, and I like that it doesn't really have a smell and it's pretty gentle on my sensitive skin. Definitely much better value than other more expensive cleansers that I've used in the past. Can be used on babies as well which is handy!

Tips: Use a hot/warm wet face cloth or micro fiber cloth to remove makeup instead of just rinsing off.

Super soft skin!

I kept a big bottle of this in the shower in my flat, and all my flatmates started using it and loved it. I use it because I have dry and sensitive skin, but it seems to work well for people of most skin types. It really does make your skin feel incredibly soft and nourished. It helps with minor breakouts too, as well as with scarring from previous pimples. I recommend buying the big pump bottle because it will last for months and months. I cannot endorse this cleanser enough!!

Love this product, really helped with my acne.

I wish someone had told me about this product earlier: Far gentler than a number of other acne products, cheap, and it comes in bulk! Great for sensitive skin as it contains no fragrances or colours, i have even found it gentle enough to use on my eyes as a makeup remover. The Unisex style of this product makes it non-offensive to all members of the household and the pump and the products size make it a great addition to the shower.

Tips: Some makeup artists suggest using this product with a pinch of baking soda for a cheap and effective exfoliant for before applying a makeup base, this also works well for those with very sensitive skin or medication related sensitivities.

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

This stuff is brilliant and I can not recommend it enough. I had terrible skin on my face, breakouts constantly all through my 20's and into my 30's plus red blotchy patches and a tendency to react to things at random. I finally decided to see a dermatologist who told me I had rosacea. He told me all the cleansers, toners and what have you in the world were not going to help and gave me Cetaphil to try. It cleaned up my skin and the rosacea was gone within a few months. I now use this every day and would never give it up. It really is all your skin needs.

Tips: While it seems expensive a 500ml pump bottle lasts me 6-9 months using everyday so is good value for money and the pump helps you use less.

Fantastic and gentle

I LOVE the Cetaphil cleanser! I have really dry sensitive skin and so many cleansers i have used have been too harsh, leaving my skin feeling tight and dried out. But this product is so so gentle!

The consistency is very watery with a velvety sheen...i initially thought it would be rubbish as i was so use to thick or creamy cleansers, but i was Pleasantly surprised to find that it took all of my long wear/ water proof make up off with no trouble at all!

you can apply it to dry or wet skin, i massage it straight onto my face without wetting it first, i find i get a better clean that way, then you either wipe it off with a face cloth or rinse off with water. It leaves your skin so clean and soft.

There is no fragrance which i actually love...that probably attributes to how gentle it is on skin. When you use it it literally feels like your just using thick water. The fact that it is so gentle makes it perfect to use every day.

I highly recommend to anyone with sensitive/dry skin

Tips: If you need to exfoliate try mixing a little bit of fine salt in with the cleanser and gently massage it onto face. I do this once a week and it leave my skin super smooth without any harsh after affects!

Tried it. Loved it!

This cleanser I started using because it is for sensitive skin. I have normal/combo skin however in the mornings I like to use a gentle cleanser before starting the day. It has really helped my skin clear up as I had a wee bit of acne especially with the hormonal part of the month. All round this cleanser is really nice and does everything it claims to do. Happy with the product!

Tips: If you are wanting to get a good exfoliating tip, use with a facial sponge. Works like magic.

Gentle-Yes!

I have combination skin that tends to get very oily in some areas and dry in others so I often find it hard to find a cleanser that balances my skin out. This stuff works great for balancing out my skin and cleansing it- it's not in any way harsh yet it removes excess oil greatly.
