Works well for the price
I used this cleanser when visiting family, since I didn’t pack my own. It works well enough and my face felt clean and fresh. I did not feel it was as hydrating as my normal products I use at home. The price of this is much more affordable than what I currently have and is a great option if you are on a tighter budget but want high performance. I would pair with a good face cream for maximum protection and benefits. I did not have a breakout or notice any strong scent. It felt similar to a hand soap in consistency.

Go get it!!!!
I have been using this particular face wash for past 4 years, and man it is the best in the game. No flakiness, no dryness,no ripping the natural oils of, just removal of the dirt and bacteria. This is a holy grail of cleansers.

Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser
Cepathil for me is a daily must have product in my skin care routine, I am using gentle skin cleanser over the year now , and I want to say that it’s so soft and truly gentle while washing your skin . The texture of the cleanser is so soft and smooth. I’m using it every morning to clean my face and then using moisturizer. I love how it cleans and plus moistures my skin . After washing my face if you forget to use the moisturizer it’s okay cause cepathil is making miracle and your skin is soft and moisture itself . I recommend the product

pretty good
The Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser is actually really solid. It’s super soft on the skin, doesn’t burn, and never leaves me feeling stripped or overly oily. It doesn’t magically clear anything overnight, but it keeps my skin calm and balanced, which I love. It’s not the most dramatic cleanser ever, but it’s reliable, simple, and just works. Definitely a good everyday cleanser — easy 4 stars.

Amazing
Due to the sensitivity of my skin, this cleanser is gentle and doesn’t irritate my skin as most cleanser would. The package holds a lot of product for its cost and the ingredients doesn’t irritate my skin a lot.

Simple, clean, and gentle
I love that these both have pumps. It makes using so much easier. I love the cleanser. I use it both at night and in the morning. It is super gentle and doesn't leave a residue. The moisturizer is often used at night for me, as it can be a little too greasy for day time use for me.

Great value
It's so much easier to buy these together. I love how my body feels after I wash it then put the lotion on. There's no greasy residue and you feel clean but soft.

Great for everyday!
This is a very good cleanser! It doesn’t foam up and its fragrance free. It’s a mild milky cleanser which is gentle enough to use everyday. Even twice a day. It cleanses my skin without it feeling tight or stripped of oils. It leaves my skin feeling very soft. It’s great if you have sun burn or if your skin is irritated from chemical products.

Affordable and worth it!
This is a product I tend to come back to. Doesn’t really have any scent to it and leaves your skin feeling clean without making it feel overly dried. You get a good amount of product for the price!

Amazing for sensitive skin
Amazing for sensitive skin, very gentle and no fragrance. Doesn’t leave my sling feeling irritated or dry when done using. There is a decent amount of Proust you get in the package so I would say it’s worth the money

Great moisturizing skin care product
Light and creamy moisturizing and perfect for everyday use. I like that there is not a strong smell and it's great for your skin and will not clog your pores. I do suggest for people with rough skin.

Best daily cleanser for your skin
This is the best gentle cleanser I have ever used. This is so good for my sensitive skin, I use it everyday. Face Cleanse every night with cetaphil prevents acne outbreak for me. I will definitely recommend this.

Best cleanser
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser is one of those rare products that actually lives up to its name. It is truly gentle, and honestly one of the most reliable cleansers I’ve ever used. The texture is silky, lightweight, and non-foaming, so it never strips my skin or leaves it feeling tight. Instead, it gives that clean-but-soft finish that feels healthy and balanced. What I love most is how universal this cleanser is. Whether my skin is irritated, breaking out, sensitized from treatments, or just dry from the weather, Cetaphil never makes things worse — it always calms everything down. It removes sunscreen, everyday buildup, and light makeup without being harsh, and it maintains the skin’s natural barrier thanks to its non-alkaline, fragrance-free formula. After consistent use, my skin looks smoother and more even, with less redness. It layers perfectly in both morning and night routines, and it pairs well with active ingredients like retinol, vitamin C, AHAs, and benzoyl peroxide — making it the perfect “anchor” cleanser no matter what else I’m using. If you want a dependable, dermatologist-recommended cleanser that will clean without stripping, soothe without leaving a film, and support your skin barrier, this is it. It’s simple, affordable, and incredibly effective — a timeless staple that deserves every bit of its reputation.

Best for gentle cleansing!
Bestt products for sensitive skin. If you're looking for a cleanser that wont trouble your skin, this is it. It is extremely gentle for sensitive skin, has no fragrance. Feels so mild and does not strip the skin. And the moisturizer is also good. Although I'm a fan of the cleanser more. And does not leave any residue. You can easily wash with water. And skin feels clean clean clean!!
