My HG cleanser since I saw it on a youtuber's video. I live in Belgium so it's easy to snag for a low price specially during the sales. It smells a little like apricot or peach, and the gel is blue, which has kind of started to taint my clarisonic brush! Having said that, it's an excellent cleanser.
This is for oily skin, I have an oily forehead and the rest of my face is dry and doesn't really get acne. I use it all over my face and use two different moisturisers afterwards.
I have to say, it's the first cleanser which doesn't cause blemishes. I've tried a lot of them, including high end Dior types. This isn't as drying, and is actually very result oriented. The packaging is practical and I love that you can get a big 500ml one. It also works really well without a clarisonic. Takes all my make up off in one go, as I usually double cleanse but with this I've found my second cleanse to be unnecessary.
Brilliant product.
I really recommend this for those with difficult, picky, or unpredictable skin. This will sort it out!

I used to have a normal clear skin but because of my pregnancy and hormonal changes, I am currently suffering from oily skin. I tried this amazing product and it is such amazing.

I highly recommend this product! I use it in combination with the Bioderma Sensibio H2O cleanser, the Bioderma Hydrabio Light Cream and Bio-Oil as part of my winter skincare routine and it's amazing.


I tend to have oily and acne/spot-prone skin so I need to make sure that I use a facial wash that cleans my face but isn't too agressive on my skin especially because it tends to get dry patches.
So this is what I do.


Morning: Wash my face gently with the Bioderma face wash then apply the Bioderma Hydrabio Light Cream on my clean face.


Evening: Use the Bioderma Sensibio H2O cleanser on a cotton pad and gently wipe my face and get rid of any excess oil/dirt on my face. The wash my face with the Bioderma face wash and apply 2-3 drops of Bio-Oil on my fingers and massage it into my face.


I've been doing this for the past few weeks and my face has never looked so good.

I think this product is pretty cool, it cleans really well and make your skin look matte for a long time. Maybe it can dry your skin a little after you use it, but about 20 minutes later your skin looks great without oily zones. Kinda pricy but it worth it.

I bought this cleanser becuase I am tired of harsh cleansers that strip my skin and make it redder.
There are no scrubbies in this product so I don't get red from that.
It is very gentle and when Im through I don't feel over-processed and tight.
I think this is a very good morning product to remove excess oil... or to do a final cleanse on the face... you might need something with a little more oomphff for expholiating and makeup removal.
But it's very very gentle.

I first bought this about four years ago and never went back.

Pros
- Takes off my makeup (don't use it on your eyes, of course).
- Can be used with a face brush for bigger impact (taking off heavier foundation).
- Doesn't dry my skin out either way.
- Doesn't break me out, in fact it seemes to help keep zits at bay.
- The packaging is practical.
- Feels nice, doesn't sting or smell unpleasant.

Cons
- It's certainly not cheap for something you use every day.
- I find I can't be quite economical with it, more is actually more.

Love this facial foam.It works well on sensitive skin and aids in controlling facial oil secretion.
Doesn't cause any outbreaks. Skin feels refresh and soft after the facial wash.

Love this, the first cleanser I've repurchased over again. It regulated my skin and made it normal. I can ven wash my eye makeup with this. Absolutely everything comes off thr first wash with it. I also use the Sebium H2O after this as a toner. My skin has never been happier since i discovered this line from Bioderma. If your skin is sensitive acne prone, yet dry and/or oily with the wrong acne products try this line. It normalises your skin.

Love, love, love it for years! Very gentle, works well, reduces sebum secretion and purifies the epidermis. I use Sebium H2O after this.

I cannot say enough good things about this cleanser. This, in conjunction with the sebium clarifying moisturizer have completely transformed my skin. They have balanced everything out, including oil production and dryness and my skin keeps getting consistently clearer. A small amount of purging was noted but nothing major and didn't last more than a couple of days. I will be buying this stuff exclusively from now on.

It dried my skin out a lot. My skin went crazy, it would be dry some parts of the day then really oily others. Broke out a bit, too. Don't think it suits my skin type. Will most probably not buy again.

Bought this on sale for $16 after trying it out for a couple of days. Loved how it took off my makeup without making me feel oily at all. Bad thing is, this is very very very drying. It says it's a non-drying soap free formula, but do pay attention to the ingredients list. This has sodium laureth sulfate, parabens, and is fragranced. It does come in a nice pump bottle though, yet for $26 and something that makes my skin flake, I don't think I'll buy it again.

This is the best cleanser for me. i have used it for years, and keep coming back to it.
It takes off my eye makeup, i dont need a seperate eye makeup remover.
its also non-drying, so my skin feels exactly right after usage. Absolute neccesity in my bathroom & would never travel without it.

As someone who takes pleasure in washing their face after wearing makeup all day long, I adore this cleanser. It not only balances my oily skin, but takes off all residual makeup after a swipe of miscellar solution before hand. I really love that it NEVER causes me to break out and that it beats a ton of other products for price and value.

Love this product. Removes all traces of makeup easily and leaves my skin soft. I go through a bottle a month so it can get a bit pricey but the results are worth it. I have found that most of the bioderma products are pretty amazing and shoppers drug mart often has sales on their products so its worth stocking up on the items i like and trying out different products from their line. So far i am a BIG fan!

This product is supposed to be soap free and gentle, while still preventing breakouts. Unfortunately this did nothing for my skin. It didn't make my breakouts worse but it certainly didn't help either. I still got my occasional breakouts and this didnt help them clear any faster. It is a little pricier than my usual cleansers so I will not be repurshasing as it does nothing special for me.
