It was love on first use. I found it in a friend's bathroom. I happened to stay there for a week, so I had plenty of time to try it on. It gives a pleasant, fresh sensation, it does not foam too much. The skin is left clean, but not squeaky-clean. It does control oiliness to a certain extent. Do not expect miracles.

A good cleanser for acne. Balances the skin without drying it out. But it is after all an acne cleanser so some mild peeling shouldn't be too alarming.

Use consistently, once in the morning and once at night for the best results. Don't bother on the 'moisturizer' or whatever though, it stings my face like crazy and does next to nothing in terms of everything- controlling spots, moisturizer- Nada. Zilch. Nothing.

It was recommended by my dermatologist. he told me it has a cult following at his office and i can see why... it takes off all your makeup (except u still have to use eye makeup remover as it doesnt completely get rid of waterproof mascara). Your face feels clean and refreshed. It costs about $20 and lasts for about 2 months. I have repurchased once already and will go back to get more once my product runs out again

it was super for my sensitive, oily, acne prone skin.
it does a good job at clearing pimples, but used too much, it dries he face...and irritates it
again very good in acne cases, result are there to see on the long run
not cheap, yet it's worth the price (10-12e)

Great product; my new cleanser since the summer, it has really helped combat my acne. The only downside is that is dries out the skin quite a bit - which is unpleasant most of the time. I reverse the dryness with an Evian spray bottle if it gets really bad. Overall, it works relatively well.

the smell is too strong, i have the impression that it stays even after i rince my face. i think it causes an allergic reaction on me if i use it on a daily basis. apparently its too strong. so i use it a few days per week. i would not repurchase it even though i like the other products of Keracnyl (mask and cream).

since i turned 27 all the products i've been using in my early twenties

stopped working. indeed, they were making my skin very senstive, red

and dry. i also realized that over washing your face with harsh acne

controlling cleanser worsens the condition of the skin in a long run.

well..previously, i've been using clean and clear advantage cleanser with 2 % salicylic acid for like 6 years. yes..i'm kind of person who sticks to the products that work

as i mentioned my long time favourite cleanser was making my skin
really irritated i just had to search for milder yet effective cleanser
to clean my senstive and moderate acne prone skin
at the beginning when my skin began to act really crazy and weird
i blamed my my moisturiser and went to buy estee lauder serum
it made my skin less dry but within 1 month i got more pimple
especially large pimple around my chin and along the jaw line
i had to stop using serum right away

what i needed was mild cleanser and light moisturiser not
harsh cleanser plus expensive moisturising serum

and i remembered that few years back, i saw my brother used this cleanser and actually it was prescribed by his dermatologist
i tired to see a dermatologist but either i had to wait like until next year
to book a appointment with public doctors or i had to pay 200$ to see a private doctors

anyway, i decided to try the cleanser. i just thought if it does not work
well..i will have to go see a doctor paying a lot of money

i bought a tube of 200ml 2 months ago and i just finished it today
and i don't think i have to go see a doctor.. :)

i only have good things to say about this cleanser

price is reasonable i paid about 22 $
and it lasted me 2 months

it is soap free but provides effective cleansing
i wear double wear foundation so i use lotion cleanser to remove
make up then use this

it does not dry out your skin
when i was using clean and clear cleanser during the cold winter month
right after i clean my face, my skin felt like something was pulling
my face in all direction. it dried out so much
but not with this

it leaves your skin very smooth and so refreshed

i love the smell too
at first i didn't like it that much
but i got used to it

it foams well too

however, the tricky part is it does not stop my pimples from
forming. at least it does not irritate my pimples and somehow
when i get a new pimple it does help them to calm down a bit

and after i started to use this cleanser, the redness on my face
is almost gone.

my review is so messy but i hope it could help anyone
who's looking for gentle and effective cleanser

Great product - thick pale blue gel that foams, smells nice but not too strong. Takes off all makeup (except for waterproof eye stuff) - doesn't leave skin feeling stripped, rather it leaves a soothing/soft clean feeling.
I paid $20 CND at London Drugs for this, I only use a pea sized amount 1-2x's/day so it should last forever!

I am on my second bottle of this product and I think it's the best, consistent product for my skin type (combination). I really like that it foams up really well and that the scent is not over-bearing. i also use it to take my make-up off every night.

This cleansers works great on my extremely oily skin, so I bet for someone else will be even better. It is at the same time not too drying which is awesome. It does not cause me any irritation as other products do. Not very easy to find in the USA.

I have a very sensitive, normal skin that tends to be oily. I used so many products that irritated me before this super cleanser ! They all left me with flaky and dry skin. But this is wonderfull. It cleanses my face and takes away all the residues... without drying it out. I even take it to remove my makeup and it does the job awesomely. I will definetly repurchase : I can't use anything else now !

I have very oily acne prone skin and this stuff works great on me. It really takes away all the dirty and even the make up very well. It smells good and it foams very good. In 3 weeks i saw the difference on my skin, now is clearer and acne is dissapearing. I'm very happy with it :-)
