Q: What is the difference between cetaphil and this cerave cleanser?

submitted by Soledad - 8 years ago
  • A: Getting much better performance from CeraVe than Cetaphil on my oily problematic skin. It seems to have dialed back oiliness, without producing any problems, suds up better, works better taking my makeup off also.

    Good clean, but skin felt dry

    Great value and definitely effective for cleaning my skin, but I did notice my skin was very dry afterwards. I think it would best be paired with a moisturizer afterwards.

    Face wash

    I’ve been using the CeraVe Foaming Face Wash and it’s quickly become one of my go-to cleansers. It has a nice gentle foam that leaves my skin feeling refreshed without being tight or stripped. I love that it’s fragrance-free and packed with ceramides and niacinamide, which help keep my skin balanced and calm. My face feels clean, smooth, and never irritated. It’s a great daily cleanser that works well for both morning and night routines, especially if you have normal to oily skin. Definitely a solid staple in my skincare lineup!

    Works great 😊

    Cleanser for a while now, and it has become a staple in my skincare routine. It’s a gel-to-foam formula that cleanses thoroughly without leaving my skin feeling tight or stripped. I like that it removes excess oil and dirt but still keeps my skin balanced.One of the standout features is the inclusion of ceramides and hyaluronic acid, which help maintain the skin’s natural barrier and keep it hydrated. The niacinamide also helps calm and refresh the skin. It’s fragrance-free, which is perfect for sensitive skin, and it doesn’t cause irritation or breakouts.Overall, this is a simple, affordable, and dermatologist-recommended cleanser that works well for normal to oily skin. It leaves my face feeling clean, smooth, and refreshed every time I use it. Definitely worth trying if you’re looking for an everyday cleanser that’s gentle but effective

    Gentle, non-stripping, and leaves my skin clean, s

    I’ve been using this cleanser for a little while now and honestly… I love it 🤍 It’s super gentle but still makes my skin feel clean and fresh without that tight, dry feeling. The foaming texture is really soft and feels calming on my skin. The best part is that it has ceramides + niacinamide, so it keeps my skin barrier happy while helping with oil control. My face feels smooth, hydrated, and not stripped at all 🫶 I will say everyone’s skin is different, so if you’re extra sensitive maybe do a patch test first. But for me, this has been such a cute little addition to my routine and makes washing my face actually feel nice instead of a chore ✨ Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5)
