    Great make up remover! Doesn't dry my skin out.

    I have the dreaded menopause dry skin, and I wear full coverage powder makeup. This stuff of the best at removing it without stripping the natural oils from my skin. I just take my time massaging it in, if I wear a heavy makeup day I might need to mighty retouch my tzone area & eyes. But dang this is great. I get two bottles at a time. One for each bathroom, i use 5-7 pumps depending how heavy the makeup is. I don’t want to use another kind of face wash. It doesn’t dry delicate my eye area out either. Some brands causes my lashes to fall out from stripping them so dry. I follow up with a good moisturizer after it since it’s winter. I wasted so much on other brands, this is a keeper for me. It keeps me from breaking out too. I get comments on how nice my skin looks. Other brands cause to much dryness & breakouts.

    Excellent

    Cetaphil is a good brand overall. I’ve used many of the products and none seem to fail. My skin has no reaction. No scent. Which is good. Skin feels great after.

    Perfect for Combination Skin

    I have both acne-prone AND eczema-prone skin, and so finding a face wash that works well for me can be difficult. Some face washes are good for one issue but bad for the other (and some are even bad for both). This is one of the very few face washes that does not exacerbate neither my acne nor my eczema! It lathers up really well, and so it does a good job of removing oil. However, somehow it manages to do that without overly drying out my skin and causing that tight feeling. I have not found another face wash that I can use year round, including both in the summer (when my acne tends to be worse) and in the winter (when my eczema tends to be worse). It's just an all-around good performer, and I hope that Cetaphil never stops making it!

    Must have

    I’ve been using the Cetaphil Gentle Foaming Cleanser in my daily routine, and it’s become a staple for my skin. It feels super soft and gentle, yet still cleans well without stripping my skin’s natural moisture. Even on sensitive days, it doesn’t irritate and leaves my face feeling clean and comfortable. It’s simple, effective, and perfect for everyday use.

    Not great for removing makeup.

    Gentle but not great at removing makeup. Doesn’t really soften like the pricier boutique but overall good for the price. I wash morning and night so I use this in the morning when I just need to refresh without over drying.

    Would be great for oily skin

    It does exactly what it is supposed to do. Cleanses thoroughly and effectively, no out breaks, foam spreads easily on face. I do find it leaves my skin dryer than I would like and I have to put a fair amount of moisture cream on after.

    Almost Perfect

    I love the foaming sensation of this cleanser and have always been a big fan of Cetaphil i n general. It leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed without striping it too dry or giving me any irritation. I'm only giving it four stars because while its not drying, I love a hydrating cleanser. Makes moisturizing after easier.

    Solid “everyday” cleanser

    I think Cetaphil Gentle Foaming Cleanser is a solid “everyday” cleanser, especially if your skin is normal or combination, and you want something mild and easy for morning and evening use. The foam is comfortable, fragrance-free, and gentle. If you wear heavy makeup or strong sunscreen daily, you might find this cleanser a bit too gentle.

    Soft foam, strong results

    I’ve been using Cetaphil Gentle Foaming Cleansing Wash for a while now, and it’s become one of my favorite go-to cleansers. The foam texture feels light and airy on the skin, which makes it really easy to spread and massage in. It cleans thoroughly without stripping — my skin feels clean but not tight or dry afterward. What I appreciate most is how gentle it is. Even on days when my skin feels sensitive, this cleanser doesn’t irritate or cause redness. It removes dirt, oil, and makeup residue effectively while still being soft and soothing. Plus, a little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts quite some time. I’d recommend this cleanser to anyone looking for a simple, no-fuss option that’s effective yet gentle enough for daily use — whether you have normal, sensitive, or combo skin

    Fragrance free , and foamy

    Foams nicely and non irritating to skin . I do believe it doesn’t fully cleanse the best though. Fragrance free which is nice if you have sensitive skin

    Used to be a great cleanser and had no smell. Just bought a new bottle with “new look” packaging and the cleanser now has a VERY strong odor. Smells like a hospital. Please change it back!

    I love how this is easy to use. I have eczema prone skin so this is perfect for me to use. I have been using this product for a couple years and it works for me. Although it does have slight scent that I am not a fan of but it is bearable.

    Face wash

    I don’t really notice using this face wash. I feel like I can’t scrub dirty off and it goes on very smoothly. I prefer washes with the beads. No scent which is nice.

    Smooth and calm after washing

    Cetaphil’s Gentle Foaming Cleanser is perfect if you want a cleanser that’s soft on the skin but still leaves you feeling fresh and clean. The foam is super lightweight and creamy, and it removes dirt, oil, and sunscreen without stripping your skin or leaving it tight. It’s fragrance-free, non-irritating, and great for sensitive or combination skin.
