Gentle Skin Cleanser Reviews

I have very sensative skin and also suffer from eczema, I purchased this in hopes it would bring some relief while also cleansing my face as nothing else seemed to be gentle enough at the time. I picked this up from chemist warehouse and gave it a go as it was quite affordable. I tried using it for a few days but it worsened my skin. My skin can get quite dry especially when it's not at its best & this only dried it out even more, my skin felt really tight to the point it was uncomfortable. This also made my face sore and irritated my skin further leaving a few red blotches. Its definitely not the worst thing I have used on my face but it did cause irritation and did not agree with me. Skin is such an individual topic, what didn't work for me im sure works for alot of other people, this is only my personal experience. I've found the best thing to use if you have sensitive skin or irritations (in terms of drugstore items anyway) Is the neutrogena gentle cream cleanser. It's the only thing that's not high end I have found that doesn't aggravate my skin. I used to use it on clients when I started out with makeup as it is so gentle.

I tried number of product before i started this cetaphil cleanser. I was fed up of using range of products as my skin is very prone to acne. this cleanser solved y problem. The beauty of it is it does its task very peacefully. the name"gentle skin cleanse" suits pretty much. It does not disturb the skin cells.
-high;y recommended for sensitive skin.
- affordable.
-never makes skin dry or chapped afer use.
just love it. I will keep using this for ages.

I generally use more heavy duty scrubs and cleansers that have active ingredients or exfoliators to help improve the quality of my skin. I purchased Cetaphil to give my skin a break from the harsh products and ingredients. This product is fantastic for anyone with any skin conditions or sensitive skin as I could barely feel any effects afterwards. There's barely any scent and I had no stinging or tautness of skin after use. It's great for a gentle, conditioning cleanse that cleans and softens the skin without being too harsh on it.

Although I don't have any sensitive skin conditions, I always keep a bottle of this to swap with my regular cleansers and products to give my skin a chance to rest and have a gentle product.

I really didn't like this cleanser.... I found it very drying on my skin..... As a result it worsened my acne and made my face really sore.... Also, I really didn't like the smell..... It was much too soapy too.... All-in-all not for me.....

I was suggested to try this product 10 years ago when most other high end skincare products were making my skin worse. I've never looked back, It also acts as a make-up remover, if i have heavy eye makeup on, i will put a small pea size on a cotton pad and wipe, and if I've only got light makeup on then i just do a double cleanse- one to remove oil and makeup, and second to cleanse the skin. The 1L bottles make it very economical.

I tried this Cetaphil cleanser just recently as a change and it’s been wonderful. It removes my make up, cleanses really well and it doesn’t sting my eyes. It doesn’t lather too much which is good because I don’t waste too much water when cleansing. It doesn’t irritate my skin as it’s got a really light texture. This has definitely become a part of my regular skincare routine.

I really love this product. It's kind and gentle and I use it as part of my morning routine to cleanse my face. I have started my nine year old daughter on it to as it's a basic gentle product and she doesn't wear make up. I only use it in the morning as I need a soap based cleanser at night to wash off the residue of my make up. I have bought this product consistently for years.

Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser was recommended to me by my GP as i was facing bad breakout at that time. My skin was so sensitive and anything i used would irritate it and made it red and peeled.

It helped me to slowly bring back my good and healthy skin by not further irritated it and still gave a good clean that i needed. I also have mild eczema on my body, so i use cetaphil as my body wash as well to help soothing and calming the irritation down.

I am a makeup artsist and this is the cleanser I have in my kit, I use it on myself and my clients. Since I began using Cetaphil, my skin has improved so much. My skin used to be very dry and it was causing a lot of breakouts. I began to use Cetaphil and I can definitely say it has improved my skin. Would recommend this to everyone, price is incredible, product is even better.

I have dry/normal, sensitive skin.
