La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Cleanser

This became my favorite cleanser from the get go. I ended up getting it upon discovering the brand at my local cvs. I have sensitive-combination skin: Dry sensitive everywhere but prone to blackheads on nose. I don’t use extensive makeup because I kind of don’t have to but I do use sunscreen and will occasionally do a heavier makeup look for a party or something. I use this mainly as my second …Read more

I have combination skin and this cleanser has restored the hydration without congesting my blackhead-prone T-zone. My skin is super soft after use and removes my mascara well without any irritation! Yet to use it on a full coverage makeup but I would suspect it would need a double cleanse.

I tried this one after many months of using CeraVe Hydrating cleanser. I love both cleansers. Like CeraVe, this one will probably not remove tenacious makeup (light makeup it does remove OK) but what you can do is use it after a micellar water or an oil to remove remaining residue and treat your skin. It is very gentle. If I had to choose, I prefer the CeraVe because this one stings your eyes …Read more

Amazing cleanser. I use it as the second step in makeup removal after a balm or oil cleanser. I will certainly repurchase. Non scented, beautiful texture and balancing (not greasy but hydrating).

This is a non-foaming cleanser that comes in a huge pump dispenser, which makes it overall more affordable.

It feels like a slippery lotion on your face, and seems quite gentle, with no offensive stinging, fragrance, or stripping sensation. However, I am not sure that it would be great to clean all of your MU and WP sunscreen in one single use. I would assume a double cleansing would …Read more

I expected this to be a dupe for the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser but I find this formulation to be simultaneously less emollient and less irritating. My skin was able to tolerate this cleanser even when I had a severely damaged moisture barrier. Yes it's boring, but it's efficient and doesn't piss my crotchety skin off. The initial price can seem steep for a drugstore purchase, but …Read more

I really wanted to like this as it’s simple and meant to be non irritating, but it can really sting - especially my eyes area. I even tested it against the dermo cleanser by putting both on a cotton pad and applying to each eye.. and there is definitely something in this that burns (even if I wet my face first).
It doesn’t dry the skin out or cause breakouts and it doesn’t leave a residue …Read more

I have a very sensitive skin. Most of my skin care products come from a dermatologist, even shampoo. There's almost nothing I can buy from a regular supermarket, except for La Roch Posay Micellar Water.
This super gentle works very well for me. It doesn't make me break out at all. This is amazing. I've finally found something I can buy from a pharmacy!
I use it as a …Read more

I found this very large bottle at CVS for $15 which is less than half the price of spa cleanser I was using. I've been using with Foreo for several weeks. If I need to remove a full face make up (which frankly isn't often) I use L'Occitan oil cleanser first, then this cleanser with my foreo scrubber. So far no reaction and my skin is clean soft and smooth. It's doesn't …Read more

I have incredibly sensitive, dehydrated, and reactive skin but needed a good cleanser since Avene products strip my skin of moisture. I picked up this cleanser after seeing how many positive reviews it received. The first couple days, my skin was fine. It wasn't stripped of moisture after I washed it and made my skin super soft. I thought I finally found a cleanser that was gentle enough for …Read more
