Gently cleanses without irritation, perfect for se
I’ve been using the Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser and I really like it. It cleans my skin well without drying it out or causing irritation, even though my skin is sensitive. The foam feels gentle, rinses easily, and leaves my skin feeling fresh. With continued use, I’ve noticed my pores look cleaner and I’ve had fewer breakouts. It’s a great balance between effective cleansing and gentle care.

Love the soap itself, bottle leaks & defective
This is the second or third time I’ve purchased this face soap and I really love it, though on each bottle I’ve bought, the pump sticks down making it not easy to pump. You must grab the pump and physically pull it back up and after every pump. I thought it was just a defect on one bottle but it’s been all of them. Also, when packed in a bag on its side, it does leak into the clear cap, wasting a lot of liquid. But the face soap is so nice, I might try to buy a refillable leak-free foam pump and just pour it in the new bottle every time.

Gentle foaming cleanser that helps keep skin clear
I’ve used this cleanser for a bit and it’s honestly really nice. It lathers well, doesn’t leave my skin feeling tight, and helps keep my skin clear without being too harsh. It feels gentle for having salicylic acid and hasn’t irritated my sensitive skin. I also like that it doesn’t leave any weird residue after rinsing.

A gentle, irritation-free salicylic cleanser that
This cleanser is one of the few salicylic acid products that works well for sensitive skin. The foam feels very gentle, and it cleans thoroughly without causing dryness or irritation. I noticed fewer small breakouts after using it regularly, and it never leaves any residue behind. It’s effective yet mild enough to use daily, which I really appreciate. A great option if you need acne care but have sensitive skin.

Nice foaming cleanser that doesn’t dry out skin
This aveeno foaming wash lathers well and cleans my makeup without drying out my skin. It doesn’t make my blackheads disappear but helps to keep my skin and pores cleansed and smooth.

Great daily cleanser
I’ve been using the Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Face Wash for a few weeks now, and it has genuinely become one of my favorite everyday cleansers. The foam is super lightweight, spreads easily, and leaves my skin feeling clean without stripping away moisture. I love that it contains salicylic acid but is still gentle enough for daily use. I’ve noticed fewer small breakouts and my skin looks more even and calm, especially around my chin and forehead. The scent is mild and fresh — not overpowering at all. Pros: • Gentle on sensitive skin • Helps reduce breakouts • Lightweight foam rinses clean • Leaves skin soft, not tight Small Con: • The pump sometimes dispenses more foam than needed Overall, it’s a great choice if you want a cleanser that’s effective for acne-prone skin but still soothing and hydrating.

Great product/poorly functioning pump
I love the foaming cleanser. I have used it for years. I do not love the pump on the bottle.. it is not user friendly. It sticks and doesn’t pop back up after each pump. So frustrating. Wish that could be improved.

Great product, terrible pump bottle
I love the foaming product, but hate the pump bottle, so difficult to dispense. The pump needs to be improved, some bottles cannot even push the pump dispenser down.

Clean feel
I enjoyed this product. Not really any scent to it which I liked. Leaves your skin feeling tight and leaves skin feeling very clean. Eliminates oil well, and helps to dry out breakouts. Good for combination skin.

Best cleanser
I’ve been using the Aveeno Foaming Cleanser, and it has become one of my favorite everyday face washes. The foam is light, gentle, and feels really soothing on the skin. It cleanses without stripping moisture, which is perfect for anyone with sensitive or easily irritated skin. Even though it’s mild, it still removes dirt, oil, and light makeup very well. My skin feels soft, balanced, and refreshed after each use—never tight or dry. I also love that it’s fragrance-free and made with calming ingredients like oat, which helps reduce redness and keeps my skin feeling comfortable. The pump is convenient, the formula rinses off easily, and a little goes a long way. Overall, it’s a reliable, gentle cleanser that you can use morning and night without worry. If you want something that cleans well while being kind to the skin, Aveeno Foaming Cleanser is a great choice!

A gentle foaming cleanser that helps clear breakou
I’ve been using the Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser and I really like how gentle it feels, even though it contains salicylic acid. The foam is soft and lightweight, and it spreads easily without irritating my sensitive skin. It rinses off cleanly and doesn’t leave any tight or dry feeling afterward. I noticed that it helps keep small breakouts under control while still calming redness, which is a big plus. My pores also look a bit more refined after regular use. Overall, it’s a great balance of effective acne care and gentle cleansing.

Loved it!
This is one of the first skincare products I used as a teenager. The packaging is minimal, and the fragrance is not strong. I love the way that it would leave. My skin feeling clean, and the foaming power is great. I would definitely recommend following up with a moisturizer. Over the years is my skin is become more sensitive and dry, so I no longer use this product but definitely recommend it!

Great cleanser
I have tried many cleansers over the years with salicylic acid and this one gets it right. I love that it foams because it makes you feel extra clean. Also it doesn’t dry out my skin. I moisturize after and noticed an overall improvement in my complexion.

One of the things I appreciate most is that it doesn’t dry out my skin. It provides light hydration while helping to calm and smooth the skin’s appearance. It works well under makeup and is great for daily use. Overall, this is an effective, gentle option for anyone looking to improve clarity and maintain healthy-looking skin. I definitely recommend it!

Good product that I've kept buying.
I first tried this a few months ago after another product left my skin very irritated. This really helped to calm down the irritation, and I've been using it ever since. I agree with others that the pump is terrible. But at least the product itself is good. Smells nice, too!
