This is a brand that many dermatologists recommend. I can't see why because all this succeeded in doing was drying my face out and irritating it. It's no better than washing your face with bar soap...

Needed a cleanser desperately that didn't dry out my skin so I gave this a go! The Cetaphil removed all of my makeup, and left my skin feeling soft and not stripped. I also used a toner afterwards,...

This cleanser doesn't clean makeup well at all, unless you wipe it off with a cloth...but wiping off with a cloth will work even with just water. It also feels slightly oily after so I have to use...

This cleanser did nothing to actually clean my skin; if you wear sunscreen or makeup you will need a product that actually does the job; this one won't. For a product with so few (cheap)...

If you have oily skin and love that squeaky clean feeling, this will not do it. You will need something foamy. If you are going to buy this as an all-in-one regime, skip it. I recommend Philosophy...

I brought this whilst using accutane and repurchased it twice since. Now I look back I don't know why I ever stuck to it. It's an okay cleanser if you don't have make up on that day. However if...

Cetaphil is one of my go to gentle cleansers. The consistency is light, color is white, and there are no medications in there. I usually exfoliate my face with this then let it sit for a minute...

All hype. Wash your face with it and cleanse after. All the dirt is still on your face. No way am I buying this again. Waste of money

An oaky skin cleanser for family from 12 to 80. Nice feel, gentle foam, good cleaning function, no tightening. But it can't do much if you want brightening or anti-aging, etc.
