Rated 5 out of 5 by from By now,most of you will have realised that anything "K beauty" is both very much "on trend" and on the radar of just about any beauty lover worthy of the name,BUT before that was another beauty "trend" that was more than just a trend,it was a beauty lovers paradise....French pharmacy beauty.\nI embraced this whole thing years ago,and of course made several La Roche-Posay mine over in France,but thankfully it has been on our shores for a while now,so getting it doesn't involve a 20+ hour flight to get.A good cleanser is the cornerstone to any skincare regime,and this....the Effaclar Foaming Gel,is a wonderful,gentle, yet very effective cleansing gel that has the foaming i love...but with the care of a milk cleanser that i should use more often. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Foaming Gel is a facial and body cleanser is a facial and body cleanser (yep,this beauty can save you room in your luggage by doing double duty) that deeply cleanses the skin (i know that this range is aimed at a younger / acne prone / oilier skin type,but honestly,as someone with a more mature / drier / no acne issues at all,save for the one or two that crop up once a month,right on schedule,this still leaves my skin feeling amazing and clean without a need to apply something moisturising immediately after....my skin really is that comfortable ) with a lush foam that doesn't feel as if you are stripping your skin.It also removes daily grime,makeup (my sunscreen / mineral powder foundation / longwear lippy and waterproof liner were gone with minimal effort) and oils (whether your own or applied,like my serums) so beautifully,and minus several nasties that damage the skin's natural balance,and throw out it's pH (yes,yes..i DO note the SLS addition).What makes this brand so wonderful is the inclusion of pure thermal spring water to calm and soothe all skin types,and this product contains Zinc to help heal and reduce breakouts,which is why this can be great as a body wash as well if body breakouts are a thing for you.\nAnd what about the product itself ? Well,this 200ml tube (which is the most beautiful,calming sea blue in hue) contains this clear,clean smelling gel which lathers on contact with water (only a small amount is needed,and at around $25,this is truly good skincare at a pocket money pricepoint).Finally,this will last you for a good few months with daily,facial only use,and it feels cooling when applied.This is truly a "must have" in summer,or when a good foam up is what you are looking for at the end of the day.\nTIP:Use this as a second cleanse in a double cleanse routine if you have issues with excess sebum (after using an oil or balm type cleanser) or first if you have a drier visage (follow with a balm or oil cleanser) to get deep down,skin respecting cleansing.\n

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Recommended by my dermatologist Light, not too ‘soapy’, not strong on fragrance. Pairs excellently with the mat moisturizer

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing! I have been using this product for about 6 months now and I am in love! I have tested so many other brands of products but they have never given me the results that the La Roche effaclar has given me. I use this in conjunction with the effaclar duo plus and hyalu B5 serum. I am in LOVE

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Removes oil without the dryness and tightness My skin has always been dehydrated but oily and stings when i wash it - even with just water. At 38 years old I was still getting pimples. This face wash thoroughly cleans all the oil and does not sting or leave my face feeling tight. Ive only been using this product a short time but my pimples have greatly reduced and i hardly have any blackheads anymore. Plus Im not an expert but I actually think this facewash reduces my wrinkles due to the very very fine texture of the product. Amazing! I have never written a review before but am doing so as I feel it could help so many people by using this product which actually does what it says it does

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Top stuff! I brought this complete set around 6 months ago, I suffer hormonal cystic acne and am highly allergic to vitamin A, which leaves me with such little choice then using hormone pills and good face cleansing routine. After using this product for the 6 months I’ve seen a dramatic change in my skin, it’s not so oily, the clay masks are absolute magic before bed. I’ve noticed a huge difference in the previous scaring as well. The blemishes are slowly clearing. I’m so happy, best products I’ve come across so far.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is a wonderful foaming gel by La Roche-Posay which is perfect for my combination skin and for my hubby's sensitive skin. I use this as the second step in my cleansing routine - after a cleansing oil. It does wonders removing all traces of makeup and impurities and I'm not left with that awful tightness that I have felt with some other cleansing gels. \nI like the packaging and the flip top cap which is attached makes it a wonderful travel companion. Also the squeeze tube which is top down makes it great to get every last bit of cleanser out.\nI love that this cleanser is free of soap, alcohol and parabens. Just another tick in my book!\n

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This has been one of my favourite cleanser of all time. I was introduced to the Effaclar line about 10 years ago and I have been a fan. This cleanser is great for those with oily and combination skin. It has a clear texture, quick thick. A little goes a long way so we need just a tiny amount. It lathers like crazy and it is amazing at removing dirst, make up traces and sebum from the skin. I never noticed any drying out etc. This kind of cleanser, like Effaclar one, is the best for my skin. It makes my skin clean, glowy and ready for some treatments. I dream about the day when I will be able to buy it in a bottle with a pump instead of a plastic tube ( as the cap is sometimes tricky to open). I wouldn't recommend it for sensitive or dry skins.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far so good! I was recommended this product by a friend whom struggled with the same skin type as me - I have been trying to find a product that doesn't flare my skin up and this one is perfect! My face is no longer red and angry when I get out of the shower and it washes make up off without an issue (Double Wear)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smells great! First time user; happy with the texture and effectiveness. Smells great too! Not too perfumy but a fresh scent. Will buy it again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Can't recommend enough! I bought this product only a few months ago after suffering with cystic acne on my chin for years, and small breakouts! Nothing ever worked for my skin, eventually this product was recommended to me and I have never looked back! my skin has never looked this clear or felt so healthy. I am so beyond grateful for this product, not only has it increased the quality of my skin, but has increased the level of confidence I have without makeup. Thank you so much, definitely my holy grail product!!
Date published: 2019-02-10
Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is one of my favourite cleansers. I love that it is soap free. It doesn't dry out my sensitive skin but still leaves it feeling clean. You only need a little bit to clean your whole face because it foams up very well. I would definitely repurchase this.
Date published: 2019-02-03
Rated 5 out of 5 by from I have really enjoyed using this cleanser, it was gentle enough in my skin so as not it irritate it, but foamed up well, giving me a cleansed feeling! I saw a noticeable difference when I began it use it and my acne has cleared up big time. I used it in conjunction with my Clarisonic, which had amazing results and all in all have had a very pleasant experience!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product that works This is a fantastic cleanser. I only use a tiny amount but my face is already looking clearer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I'm a big fan of La Roche Posay moisturisers but have never tried their cleansers before. I am not sure why but I was genuinely surprised how much I enjoyed this product. I think it's because the word foaming scares me slightly as I have dehydrated and sensitive skin and steer away from stripping cleansers. The gel feels quite cooling on the skin and doesn't make my skin feel tight after use. I use this as a second cleanser, after I have removed my makeup with an oil cleanser and find it does a good job. I've also done a bit of research and noticed that the ph level of this cleanser is 5.5(based on the priceline website) which confirms to me that it does a great job of "cleaning" the skin without stripping it of it's natural oils/chemicals.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I loved this cleanser! Usually I found foaming cleansers to be too drying on my skin, however after use my skin felt clear and not tight at all. This cleanser was soothing and took my make-up off well also. As well, a little goes a long way making this cleanser excellent value for money! Would recommend trying
Date published: 2019-01-29
Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is the first cleanser I have found that didn't leave my skin feeling dry and tight. Immediately after use my skin felt soft, clean  and healthy. I've noticed my face being significantly less oily and has a more even and clear appearance. This is definitely something I will re purchase and keep using.
Date published: 2019-01-29
Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is a fabulous cleanser for oily and acne prone skin. I was worried that this may strip my skin too much and leave it  feeling a tad dry, but that wasn’t the case at all. After use my skin would feel clean and well cleansed without feeling tight and dry. Having used this everyday, feel it has significant helped to improve my skin and from blemishes appearing. Highly recommend! 
Date published: 2019-01-28
Rated 5 out of 5 by from This cleanser has worked absolute wonders for me! I have combination skin and found this controlled my oily t-zone very well, but was still gentle enough that it didn't dry out the rest of my face. After consistent use, there was a significant reduction in breakouts and pore size, and my skin was glowy and soft. The scent is refreshing and a little product goes a very long way. This has become my new holy grail and I have recommended it to all my friends and family. 
Date published: 2019-01-27
Rated 5 out of 5 by from One of the best cleansers on the market, this cleansing gel is gentle, yet effective, and clears impurities instantly. The formula is soft and non-irritant, whilst the gel formula is great for morning to wake up skin. The product does not dry out skin unlike others on the market.
Date published: 2019-01-27
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Loved this cleanser. It's such a huge bottle, so I haven't used much. It feels nice on my skin and makes it feel clean. It doesn't sting my eyes and gets the make up off nicely. Along with other La Roche-Posay, my skin has been mostly clear. I would definitely recommend this cleaner to any skin types.
Date published: 2019-01-27
Rated 5 out of 5 by from The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Foaming Gel works wonders! I really recommend this to anyone with sensitive, oily. I love this cleanser. It removed my make up and left me skin feeling amazing. My skin felt so clean removing everything that built up during the day and the foaming gel helped with my acne and blemishes.
Date published: 2019-01-26
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Have wanted to try this face wash for a while. I found it was great for my oily acne prone skin. This foaming gel didn't dry out my skin or feel to harsh which was a nice change. A little goes a long way so the price is very good for the efficiency of the product.Left my skin looking smooth and clearer. I used this as my main cleanser in the morning and my double cleanse in the evening. Would 100% recommend this product. And has become a staple in my skincare routine.
Date published: 2019-01-26
Rated 5 out of 5 by from This cleanser felt amazing on my face. It smells lovely and the gel formula foams up nicely. It definitely makes my face feel squeaky clean afterwards, and is the perfect start to the day. Again, a little goes a long way, and does not make dry my skin out at all. 
Date published: 2019-01-26
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wow oh wow! What can I say about this product?!\nIt meets all my expectations and then some. \nA little pea sized amount covers my entire face so the product will last for ages. \nIt felt hydrating whilst also delivering amazing results at reducing my acne. \nI highly recommend this product as well. \n
Date published: 2019-01-25
Rated 5 out of 5 by from This was my favourite product from the range and will now be my new daily cleanser. The cleanser is very lightweight and soap free so it does not feel as though it strips the skin of all its natural moisture. However it is not effective at taking off long lasting makeup and I would recommend a more exfoliating face wash if you desire a product like that. 
Date published: 2019-01-25
Rated 5 out of 5 by from The La Roche Posay foaming cleanser worked wonders for my skin.  I found it quite gentle and yet it gave a really thorough cleanse.  It removed all of my make up and left my face feeling squeaky clean!  I would definitely recommend this for people with sensitive and acne prone skin.  It is reasonably priced for such a great quality product.  Will definitely purchase again.
