gentle as decribed

It was suggested to me by local pharmacy as I was having ongoing acne problems. I stopped using my face moisturiser & used this cleanser along with their face & body moisturiser. After a month I introduced another face cream while still using this cleanser twice a day. I can honestly say that my skin is looking much better & feeling better. It feels lovely and silky to put on face and doesn't leave my skin feeling dry. I don't really wear much makeup but do use sunblock every day & I feel it cleans my skin well. I highly recommend this cleanser for anyone who wants to calm there skin.

Amazing for dry sensitive skin

This is heaven sent for those with sensitive skin, or have super dry skin. Thankfully now after many years of correctly treating my combination skin I no longer use this, but I do highly recommend it to others.

My experience was that I used products that would leave my face blotchy and itchy, with flaky dry patches and angry spots in others. Using Cetaphil for a few months saw my skin balance itself, along with the use of aloe vera as moisturiser.

It very gently cleans, but cleans deep enough to prevent break outs, without stripping natural oils from your skin so it remains hydrated and prevent dryness.

I thank Cetaphil for giving me the complexion I now live and love with.

Can't Fault It!

I use the Cetaphil cleanser for oily and acne-prone skin, and it's the best cleanser I've used so far. Gentle enough for my dry patches and sensitive areas (e.g. under the eyes) whilst being strong enough to help clear my acne :)

Tips: Try using it on the body too, it's helped the mild acne on my arms, neck, and decolletage.

Best skin cleanser ever!

This is basically the MUST HAVE product ever! Or at least for me. Gentle on eczema skin and non-drying.

Go to cleanser for sensitive skin

I love this product and use it almost exclusively for my dry sensitive skin, to take off makeup and general day grime. The face feels soft, fresh and clean afterwards, even when tissued off. Soap and fragrance free, it was recommended to me by a dermatologist and when I have dermatitis on my hands it doesn't make them worse, which lots of other products do. Can be used without water (and tissued off or use a soft cloth) which is also handy for travelling or when you don't want to take your makeup off on the white face cloths!

Tips: Keep some in a small bottle (or get a sample baby sized one) for use during the day for washing/wiping hands or face, etc.

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

This is the only other clenser that makes my skin feel amazing. It is easy to apply and doesnt have a fragrance. It lasts a long time because you only need a small amount.

Tips: Morning and Night, regular use will see the benefits.

Works really well with the gentle skin lotion

I've tried this with the gentle skin lotion and really enjoy it. I can use it for the whole body and it doesn't feel stripped. Because it's super gentle, if you have more stubborn face makeup or need a bit more cleansing, you may want to add in something else. It's a nice smooth texture and doesn't have annoying fragrances which is an added bonus.

My favourite cleanser!

I've been using cetaphil gentle skin cleanser for years now and it works so well! I have quite sensitive and dry skin and my skin loves it - I often get compliments on my skin, and I always recommend cetaphil.

It's really affordable but does the job just as well, if not better, than more expensive cleansers.

It doesn't have a strong smell which is another plus for me.

It's not the best at removing makeup so I usually will remove it before hand, but I don't mind doing that.

Awesome for Sensitive Skin

I began using Cetaphil as a teen and as an adult I kind of tested the waters with alternatives, but found Cetaphil to still be one of my all time faves.

It's great for sensitive skin, as you would expect considering the name. It has no scent, so awesome for people who are too fond of strong floral scent of most cleansers. For me particularly, I prefer the oily/acne prone cleanser, but this one also does the job just as well I feel. It does feel a little slimy, but using a flannel before rinsing your face will fix that problem. You also get your money's worth too - the size your receive for the amount you pay is pretty decent and most chemists have this and the moisturiser on special quite often. It also helps that this lasts long, you only need to purchase a new on every 2nd month or so, so money wise a decent investment.

I'm also a big fan of the pump! This makes life so much easier when cleansing, especially for lazy folk like me who can't be bothered with opening/closing caps.

Tips: I like to cleanse my face twice, particularly if I've worn make up to make sure all remnants are gone. I also use a flannel to make sure it's super clean and get rid of residual cleanser before rinsing my face to get rid of any potential slimy feeling.

The only answer for helping my acne

I have recently returned to using Cetaphil cleanser and moisturiser consistently. I was hoping it would help my skin as it just seemed to keep worsening.

At 24 years old I thought I would be past the acne days, but unfortunately, there is no such thing! However, I have been using the Cetaphil cleanser and moisturiser morning and night since the start of the year and my skin has been consistently much better and continually improving ever since. My skin feels softer, has lost it's red/inflamed appearance and I'm hardly getting any new pimples if any! I'm relieved that I've found a product that actually helps my skin and doesn't cost a fortune.

A couple of years ago I tried another brand that was heavily marketed and it made my skin the worst it had ever been! It just goes to show the best products may be the ones that don't have the prettiest packaging, marketed the most, or the 'newest.'

If you feel like you just don't know what to do with your skin do this: Use cetaphil gentle cleanser in the morning followed by Cetaphil face moisturiser. At night remove your make up with gentle face wipes (I just use Pams or whatever is cheapest) before cleansing and moisturising.

Tips: Always remove make up with make up remover wipe before cleansing
