This product is amazing, cleared up my acne. Will definitely buy it again.
I am absolutely in love with La Roche-Posay effaclar gel facial wash for oily skin. I have been using it for a while now and it completely cleared up my acne and reduced brake outs. The formula creates really nice, gentle foam that cleanse deeply without leaving any tight or dry residue. Highly recommended this to anyone struggling with oily or acne-prone skin.

Perfect daily cleanser for controlling oil without irritation!
This gel clesnser is highly effective for oily skin. It leaves a deep cleansing sensation without making my skin dry or tight. It lasts a long time because you only need a small amount, and I felt absolutely no burning or irritation. My face feels clean and refreshed after every use.

Amazing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the gel texture of this cleanser. It is in a convenient pump bottle and dispenses easily. It foams well when combined with water and leaves my skin feeling clean and cared for. Since using this my skin is clear and blemish free.

My Holy Grail for my acne🫧🧴
I’ve been using the Effaclar Gel Facial Wash from La Roche-Posay over a year now and it has been a game changer for my oily acne prone skin. It is the only face wash that does not leave my face tight or feeling strippped.
Reasons why I love it:
- Clearer Skin: Breakouts are gone and pores are clearer.
- A little is enough: This liquid formula lathers so well that this bottle lasts for months.
- Gentle yet effective: It’s soap and alcohol free so it doesn’t ruin your skin barrier.
If you struggle with oil and acne prone skin this is a must have on your routine!

Works well. Slightly drying
La Roche-Posay has some of the best skin care. I used to use this long ago when my ex owned an aesthetic business. As they also made skinceuticals. I liked this face wash. I just found it slightly drying. So better for younger skin (I was young when I used it).

Micro foaming, the lather deep cleanses but doesn’t l ave my skin dry or taught after. Skin feels soft, clean and rebalanced. Works best with the Effackar duo+ M cream to keep skin matte all day

Soothing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this cleanser in exchange from my honest review. I’ve had it before and it was great for soothing my problematic skin and calming it down to prevent blemishes. I find it best used with the Effaclar moisturiser for twice the dose of great skincare products. The cleanser has a great lather and softens your skin to feel clear and clean.

Purifying Foaming Gel
The Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel cleanser was a bit of a mixed experience for me. On the downside, I found it quite drying on my skin eventhough I am a combo more oily skin, and I personally didn’t enjoy the smell either, it’s not unbearable, just not something I look forward to using.
That said, it does lather really well and gives that “super clean” feeling, which works especially well for oily skin types. The good thing is that despite the dryness, it didn’t cause me to break out at all, which is a big plus. In terms of price, I’d say it’s fairly reasonable for a dermatologist-backed brand and the tube lasts a long time, so you do get decent value.

Refreshing cleanse
This facial cleaners is one of my favorites as it leaves my skin feeling fresh after use. furthermore the price is affordable especially considering it comes from a reputable brand. it leaves your skin feeling refreshed. The packaging is sturdy and good size and you will start to see results within 3-4 weeks. Its consistency is light so it won’t leave a residue.

Good summer cleanser
While my skin type is not oily, I find this cleanser suitable for use 2-3 times per week during the summer months. It effectively cleanses and leaves the skin feeling soft. I have not experienced any irritation, although daily use can lead to dryness. My brother, who has oily skin, particularly appreciates this cleanser during the summer.

Helpful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started using the Effaclar routine when my skin was breaking out more than usual, and honestly it helped simplify everything. I like that it’s just a few steps and doesn’t feel overwhelming. My skin felt cleaner pretty quickly, and over time I noticed fewer breakouts and less oiliness. It’s not one of those routines that works overnight, but it feels like it’s actually improving your skin instead of just covering things up.

If you have oily skin this is the perfect solution for you . It took me a few days to immediately find out how good this is . I love the fact that even being for oily skin it doesn’t leave your skin dry but smooth. If you are consistent with it you should see results fast . It doesn’t give you breakouts but instead it helps you get rid off it .

One of the best facial wash for oily skins
This is a reliable option for oily and acne-prone skin. In terms of breakouts it helps reduce excess oil and keeps pores clearer. Its effectiveness comes from purifying ingredients and exfoliating the target oil and impurities. The formula feels well-balanced for oily skin, it adjusts well to daily routines specially for those dealing with acne. When rinsing it washes off easily and leaves the skin feeling fresh and clean.

This is hands‑down my favorite facial cleanser ever! I have oily, acne‑prone skin, and Effaclar Gel has been a total game‑changer for me. The foaming gel texture feels super refreshing and removes excess oil without stripping my skin or leaving it tight.
It helps keep shine under control all day and doesn't make my breakouts worse in fact, it feels like it helps prevent them by keeping my pores clean. What I love most is how balanced my skin feels after washing: clean but still comfortable.
I use it morning and night, and it's become a staple in my routine. If you have oily skin and want a reliable, gentle yet effective cleanser, this is the one to try. I'll definitely repurchase again and again!

A fantastic PM cleanser for combo skin!
I used to be very nonchalant about face cleanser; I thought all it does is just to cleanse the face so I just used whichever one was on sale but since now I'm in my late 20s, I'm looking for something better from my cleanser. One that's actually formulated for my skin type which is combination sensitive that is both cleansing and also doesn't strip all the natural oils from my skin (because believe me you don't want this to happen as it can make your pores appear larger) and I think this La Roche Posay Effaclar Purifying Cleansing Gel is an amazing PM (nighttime) cleanser!
On days when I do retinol or exfoliating acids, it is a bit drying for AM but overall a fantastic cleanser. It's not heavily fragrances which my sensitive skin loves and the gigantic 400 ml size makes it an amazing and affordable choice!

It removes excess oil, dirt, and makeup without over-drying, leaving my skin feeling clean, refreshed, and balanced. The texture foams nicely, rinses off easily, and helps prevent that tight, stripped feeling some cleansers leave behind.

Foamy creamy and cleansing does exactly what it says! ❤️
The La Roche- Posay has a creamy foamy texture it's not overly scented
The tube is easy to use and you can squeeze out the correct amount
It cleanses throughly without leave a sticky residue I didn't have any breakout after using this product, I used it consistently for 4 weeks
I believe this foaming gel is great value for money as you don't need a large amount

Good cleanser
This is the best. It prevents breakouts and is super gentle. Lathers nicely and the pump makes it easy to use. Great for everyday and I use it after taking off my makeup for an extra cleanse

Use for more than 10 years
I use Effaclar for more than 10 years now and I can't leave without it. I have sensitive skin and I use this to wash my face everyday and my body once in a while when I have some discomfort and it helps a lot. For bump skin this is amazing. I think isn't only dor oily skin, this is perfect for every kind of skin as it cleans very well and doesn't leave dry.

Effective cleansing without drying the skin
The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Cleanser with 2% salicylic acid has made such a difference in my skin. It cleans thoroughly without over-drying and really helps keep breakouts under control. My skin feels fresh, smooth, and balanced after every use. I love the foamy and the scent of it. High-quality skincare that actually works. I’m very impressed and will definitely keep repurchasing.

It’s been a game changer for my acne
I have been using La Roche-Posay Gel for 6 years, my dermotologist recommended it for acne treatment, and I am still really happy with it. It gentle cleans my skin, help control breakouts and doesn’t dry my face out too much even with long term use.

Daily Cleanser
Another great daily cleanser that isn’t too drying on the skin. Leaves me feeling refreshed and squeaky clean. The foam gives it a hint of luxury.

Great for oily skin
I like this face wash and I think it does a good job of cleansing. I have normal to oily skin and in the parts of my face that are oily, I have no issues after using it. However, in areas of my skin that are more normal, this can be drying if I use it during the winter. It does not leave a residue and does a great job removing sunscreen and makeup residue.

Great for oily skin!
I have oily skin so I’m always looking for a good cleanser. This one is so foamy and you don’t need much for it to latter well. I use a tiny amount and latter it on my hands before putting it on my face. It doesn’t strip my face of oils but cleans my face well. It doesn’t irritate my skin and I think a little can go a long way!

Good even for normal/combination skin
This face wash has a nice texture which foams just enough to feel cleansing without being harsh. I’ve noticed fewer breakouts after using this consistently for a few weeks. It has no added fragrance which, packaging is convenient, this bottle will last you for months. Little pricey but worth it for the quality.

My morning cleanser!
I love this! It is my go-to morning cleanser. It is lightweight, it leaves my face feeling refreshed and it is not drying at all. It is unscented.
I definitely recommend adding this to your routine!

This cleanser is ideal for oily or acne-prone skin. Use twice daily with a small amount to keep oil under control while maintaining skin comfort.
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Gel Cleanser has made a big difference in controlling excess oil without drying out my skin. The gel texture feels light and refreshing, and it foams gently to remove impurities, dirt, and excess sebum very effectively.
After rinsing, my skin feels deeply clean, smooth, and balanced - never tight or stripped. With regular use, I noticed my skin looks less shiny throughout the day and feels more comfortable overall. It's especially great for oily and combination skin types.
I also appreciate how gentle it is, even with daily use. The formula feels soothing and helps keep breakouts under control while maintaining a fresh, healthy look.

The Ultimate “Reset Button” for Oily, Breakout Pro
At 28 I’m over the harsh stripping cleansers of my teens, but I still need something that actually fights acne. The Laroche Posey effaclar medicated gel cleanser has become the MVP of my morning and night routine. Here’s the glow on why it works. It contains 2% salicylic acid, which is the gold standard for deep cleaning pores. I noticed a huge reduction in those tiny clogged pore bumps along my jawline within the first week. I have notoriously oily skin, especially in the T zone. This cleanser manages to remove excess sebum without making my face feel like a desert. It leaves my skin, feeling clean, but still supple. As someone with sensitive, acne, prone skin I appreciate that this doesn’t have a heavy scent or unnecessary dyes that usually cause redness for me. Here is my final verdict: If you’re dealing with adult acne and afternoon shine, this is a must have. It preps my skin perfectly for my moisturizer and sunscreen, and has significantly cleared my complexion.

Lasts forever and works great!
I use their face wash every day and have found it to be gentle and so so effective on my skin. It mitigates breakouts. It does not foam a ton but I only need a little bit to go a long way/so the product lasts forever!

Love it
It cleans my face very good! At first, I was using it twice a day but it is really drying so I cut it down to once with a moisturizer after and that made such a difference. Its cleared up my pores and my face isn’t oily by midday.

Great for my acne-prone skin, but it dries out my face a lot now, so I'm looking for something more gentle and hydrating.
I've been using La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel for a while and it was definitely a good product for my acne-prone skin. It helped keep breakouts under control and left my skin feeling very clean.
However, over time I noticed that it started to dry out my face a lot, especially now that my skin is less oily than before. While it's great for controlling excess oil and acne, it can feel a bit too stripping for me at the moment.
Overall, it's a solid cleanser for oily or acne-prone skin, but I'm now looking for something more gentle and hydrating that still helps with occasional breakouts.

An effective facial cleanser that controls shine,
My experience with La Roche-Posay's Effaclar Facial Gel has been excellent for my oily skin. This product helps control shine throughout the day, making me feel fresher. Plus, its gentle formula reduces irritation that other harsh cleansers usually cause, which is great for sensitive or acne-prone skin. I've noticed that pores look less visible and my skin feels clean without dryness. The scent is fresh and pleasant, making the cleansing routine more enjoyable. Overall, it's an excellent cleanser to control acne and improve the look of oily skin. 😊

Amazing!
I've been using the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel for my oily and sensitive skin, and it has made a noticeable difference. The gel has a light consistency and transforms into a soft foam that gently cleanses without being harsh. It removes excess oil, dirt, and makeup very effectively while still feeling gentle on the skin.
After rinsing, my face feels clean and fresh, not tight or dry. It helps control shine throughout the day and keeps my pores looking clearer. I also like that it's fragrance-free, which makes it perfect for sensitive or acne-prone skin. The formula feels lightweight and doesn't irritate or cause redness.
Overall, it's a reliable everyday cleanser that leaves my skin balanced, smooth, and healthy-looking.
