The Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser is a favorite among guests for its gentle yet effective cleansing properties, making it suitable for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Many appreciate its lightweight foam texture, which cleans without stripping moisture, leaving skin feeling fresh and soft. However, the pump design has received criticism for being difficult to use, which can detract from the overall experience. Despite this, the product's ability to reduce breakouts and improve skin texture makes it a popular choice.

Wanted to love it but it burnt my face. I’ve been using it for a week or so and my whole face is red, puffy, lots of little bumps, my skin feels like sand paper and It looks like an allergic reaction. Just awful

Product works well, pump doesn’t
Product itself works well however the pump is terrible. It hasn’t worked well from the start, always sticking and not dispensing product. This is the first time buying this product and unfortunately I can’t see myself buying it again. I have sensitive skin and it works well … when I can get some out of the bottle.

Cleaner skin, firmer skin texture and good appearance
They deeply clean the skin to the point of leaving the pores of the facial skin free of impurity, release excess grease and leave a radial texture in each wash, I recommend it without thinking twice.

Leaves my skin clean , soft, refreshed and glowing
I’ve been really happy with the Aveeno positively Radiant brightening cleanser.it leaves my skin feeling clean,fresh and soft without making it feel overly dry or tight. I especially like that it helps my skin look more even and refreshed after regular use. The texture is gentle and easy to work into the skin , and a little goes a long way . I definitely recommend giving this one a try

Burned my face
This product was more than disappointing. I don't have particularly sensitive skin, but this cleanser turned my face red and made a lot of my skin flake off, even though I used it exactly as directed. It made my skin puffy and fragile for long after I washed it off, and it did nothing for my acne except make it worse. Would not recommend.

Great cleanser. Horrible pump to use.
I love, love this cleanser. Lightweight and a great exfoliator with the salicylic acid. Love it for combination skin. I love the gentle scent, & I use it daily. The pump is extremely hard to use! You actually waste soap with this pump. Not like any foaming cleanser pump I've ever used. So I dread using it. That makes me sad.

Great cleanser, horrible pump nozzle
One of my favorite skincare products, I have been using it for years. My only complaint is the awful foam pump. It’s an ergonomic nightmare.. it seems like every other bottle I buy is so hard to push down. And I use this in the shower so with wet hands it’s nearly impossible. It takes 2 hands and my leg to somehow get the foam pumped out. All I can think about is an elderly person trying to use this or someone with a muscular disability. It would be impossible to use. I hope they do a redesign because I’m almost to the point of finding something else to buy.

No difference in skin
I usually love Aveeno products but this is just ok. It is gentle on skin and it has a nice scent. Unfortunately it’s hard to pump out, it’s more watery than foamy, and I haven’t noticed any difference in my skin.

I enjoyed this product
I definitely feel the difference when I use this item. My face feels clean and not irritated. It has a natural scent not really chemical. I’ll buy again.

Not for sensitive skin
This product gave me a bad reaction almost like a chemical burn, I applied it and just washed my face like normal in the shower and when I got out I felt burning on my face. When I tried reporting this issue on the website it would not allow me to. I do not recommend this for people with sensitive skin at all.
