Sensitive skin must have

Love this product. One of the only facial cleansers I can use which helps to clear my skin while being gentle enough not to aggravate my sensitive skin issues. The only fault I have would be that it doesn't remove make up well and I would often need to use another product to remove my make up first.

Love it and use it everyday

As a stressed teen and being a person who battles against having combination skin, Cetaphil definately has helped with controlling oil and dry skin at the same time, as well as improving my skin texture overall. Cetaphil is a very simple yet effective cleanser which has kept my skin very hydrated and doesn't strip the natural oils from my skin like others usually would. I would definately recommend this to any skin types especially troubled skin and combination skin!

Tips: I love that you can use it as a leave on product, just a small layer on the face to keep on overnight or on a cold dry day is so great for the skin!

Pretty good!

This stuff does the job well, it gets rid of makeup, oil, dirt etc. I really can only give it one fault, and that's the smell! It's rather clinical. Other than that, this is a huge product which lasts for ages, easy to store and travel with. White creamy consistency which I have found you can use wet or dry for the face and it works well. Does tend to dry skin out a bit, but I like this as my skin has been oily of late.

Tips: When the pump applicator suggests there is no product left, open the screw top and put a put of water in and shake. Once this has run out the bottle can be cut open and a lot of product is often left.

Skin Salvation!

Cetaphil has been my go to skin cleanser for years. I love this cleanser, it is truly gentle on my skin. I have dealt with acne, oily skin, and even dry skin and through it all, Cetaphil gentle cleanser has been there to see me through! It gets the job done; removes oil and makeup, and never leaves my skin feeling tight and dry! As some gentle cleansers can still leave make-up behind or do not thoroughly clean your skin. However, Cetaphil gentle cleanser does it all! All in all, I love this cleanser and have had great success with it for years!

Tips: I like to wash my face twice to make sure I have removed all traces of makeup. As the cleanser is so gentle, this ensures a thorough wash without drying skin out.

Soothing skin

This was a good idea for both myself and my daughter who has very sensitive skin. She used it as a body wash and it didn't make her skin itch like most other things so. I used it as a cleanser and really liked that it didn't feel like it stripped my skin.

No problems

I like this cleanser I use it as my safety backup. It doesn't irritate my skin but it doesn't do anything to improve my skin. I tend to go through it quite fast due to me being a but of a slatherer and the thin consistency of cetaphil gentle skin cleanser. All in all this is a great product and I love having it on the shelf, makes me feel easier knowing it's there :)

Tips: Try to u see the recommended amount as it does spread really well :) unlike me who just chews through the stuff due to laziness x

Basic but such a workhorse!

When I first started using this product, I thought this was a gentle all-round face and body cleanser, with minimal scent and a generally basic, utilitarian cleanser. However, this product grew on me, leaving my skin feeling moisturised and was also pretty amazing at removing makeup. But it was only after I switched to the a different body wash that I realised how good this product was (my skin felt quite a bit drier). I would say don't be fooled by the basic packaging, this is an amazing cleanser and probably my favourite body wash.

Tips: The smallest size is great for travelling as you can use it as both a face and body wash.

Gentle cleanser

I have dry, sensitive skin, so I prefer to use a cream cleanser over a foaming one, as they usually moisturise while they cleanse. I was interested to try this cleanser because it is designed for sensitive skin, is gentle, and fragrance free.The one I used was the 125ml version, which has a flip-top blue cap. The bottle is white with Cetaphil’s blue and green labelling.

The product itself is a pearly white. It was easy to squeeze out of the bottle, and to apply to my damp face. The bottle advises that you can also apply this to dry skin. It massaged well into damp skin, and felt creamy and moisturising on my face. It did not cause any irritation to my eyes or skin, and there is no fragrance to speak of. It also rinsed off easily in warm water, and left no residue. The bottle also advises that you can use this to remove light makeup, and I did find that light makeup came off after a wash with this.

I really liked this cleanser. I think it is a great option if you have sensitive, dry skin.

I use every day

I use the Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser every day in the shower. It's a lot calmer on the skin compared to the other cetaphil products and does a really good job of cleansing without stripping everything from the face. I use to remove makeup from around my eyes and don't need to worry about it irritating my eyes. A staple in my daily routine.

So creamy and delish!

This cleanser is really lovely. It is so gentle and creamy if feels so lovely on. They have clearly taken great care in making it a cleanser that is good for all skin. I think some people (including myself) have been fooled into thinking that the more you clean your skin the less likely you are to have breakouts! Wrong! So I have found out. But it did take me a long time to learn this. The more that I have used gentle and moisturising products the better my skin has been. To be honest I've had this sitting in the cupboard for a while. I have a friend who has beautiful skin and swears by Cetaphil products so I thought I'd give them a try, however I love my clinique bar cleansers so much I just haven't until I ran out. My skin feels so good to the touch and other products go on so nicely after cleansing. It won't strip all the healthy oils from your skin.(I swear it's ok to not be squeaky clean!) Anyway, I would definitely use this again. I do still love my clinique bar cleanser but this would be a very close second, only because I'm completely stuck in my ways!
