I don't know why I ever stray from this cleanser, because I'll try something else, be disappointed, and always come back to this. It's so gentle but works so well. I have dry skin, but this helps remove sunscreen, makeup, and general grime from the day without feeling tight or painful afterwards.

I started getting adult acne in my late 20's that rolled over into my 30's. I tried a few different face cleansers but they either dried my face out too much or made it feel greasy. This cleanser seems to be just right! it's gentle enough to not irritate my face more and it's been a huge help in clearing up my acne. I've gone through at least 5 bottles already.
Skincare essential!

First of all the scent from this is amazing it smells fresh and clean. Also the texture is sticky and slimy when dry but once you add water it becomes foamy which is amazing!!! It works so good it has helped me clear up my skin. The ingredients are also very good themselves.

I have been using this cleanser for a while now and honestly, it’s just a really solid, no-fuss cleanser. It gets rid of the oil and grime without drying my skin out, which I appreciate since my skin can be a bit temperamental. I like that it doesn’t have any strong scent, and it feels gentle enough for daily use. It’s not one of those products you get excited about, but it quietly does its job really well and that’s exactly what I want from a cleanser.

Simple, practical packaging with a pump. Fragrance-free, which is great for sensitive skin. The gel has a soft texture, lathers well, and rinses off easily. Leaves skin feeling clean but not tight or dry. I appreciate the ingredients like ceramides and niacinamide — my skin feels calm and hydrated.

I switched to this cleanser couple months ago and so far so good! It has no scent and foams really well. It’s gentle for a morning cleanser. I use ceraves SA cleanser in the evening. I have acne prone skin and it doesn’t clog my pores!

I’m not sure but I’m a huge fan of this product. It’s fine for a quick morning cleanse, but when it comes to makeup removing this is not a product that I reach for. it does not feel strong enough nor does it thoroughly cleanse my skin or makeup and sunscreen, even when I double cleanse. my fiancé likes it so maybe it is just not meant for heavy duty usage.

I didn't like it, it's the first time I've ordered for delivery and it's not possible for them to check if it's properly sealed before leaving the store and it still took two more days than they said before when I made the purchase, very bad.

I’m a huge fan of gel facial cleansers but I was not too fond of this one. I did find it that I made my skin dry, it’s definitely really good for someone who has very oily skin. I do find that gel based cleansers are better at removing makeup.

The CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser has been a game-changer for my skin. It does exactly what it promises — gives a deep clean without stripping or drying me out. My skin feels fresh, balanced, and calm after using it, and I’ve definitely noticed fewer breakouts and less oil throughout the day. The ingredients are what make it so great: it has niacinamide to calm the skin, ceramides to support the barrier, and it’s fragrance-free — which I love since my skin can be sensitive. There’s barely any scent and smell, which makes it feel super clean and minimal. The packaging is simple and functional — the pump dispenses the perfect amount and never leaks. And for the price, it’s a steal. You get a huge bottle that lasts forever, especially since a little goes a long way. I keep repurchasing because it just works.
