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.

Reviews
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.
I use this as my everyday cleanser. Twice a day if my skin is looking like it could break out. Such a gentle cleanser and my face doesn't dry out at all. Religiously use this and will continue to. It has definitely reduced my break outs and my skin looks so much softer and more smooth.
Tips: Cleanse for as long as you can - at least a minute. This allows the product to really do it's job and makes your skin feel amazing.
I cannot recommend this face wash enough if you are prone to dried out sensitive skin. It is gentle enough to keep your skin soft and not dried out but still strong enough to cleanse skin. Although not exceptional for eye make up it gets off my foundation at the end of the day. Can be used once or twice a day, and it comes in a massive pump bottle which is practical and economic at the same time. Absolutely LOVE this face wash
Tips: Follow cleansing with the Cetaphil moisturiser for a clean, soft non drying out experience.
I used this product for a while because I thought it would help with acne to use something gentle on my skin. I didn't really find any improvement in the overall condition of my skin. However, I think that I was just using the wrong product for my skin type, so I think this would be really good for someone with sensitive skin as it doesn't dry the skin out at all. It was also really good for removing light make-up and always left my skin feeling clean.
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!!
I tried this product after seeing an ad on TV and then finding it at the supermarket. So much cheaper than what I was using and it has been really good for my skin. It is gentle and non drying and while I only use it on my face, can be used on any part of the body. Doesn't lather much.
Tips: If you like foaming cleansers, this is not for you.
From an early age, I've had sensitive skin and am constantly breaking out. I've tried a lot, a lot of products out there and nothing has worked just as well as Cetaphil. This is my holy grail of cleansers and I will never change. It removes all the dirt, oil and make-up from my skin and leaves it smooth. For girls with oily skin, I'd also recommend the Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser - AMAZING!
This is a good value for money cleanser. It is gentle, although it doesn't really remove much make up off the skin so I don't know how well this really cleans the skin. It certainly won't make your skin worse, and over all, it's a good product.
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.
