Q: How does this product differ from Cetaphil Gentle Facial Wash? Which do you recommend for Rosacea?

submitted by EGME - 1 year ago
  • A: Hi there! This is our Gentle Skin Cleanser. It is a creamy formula that is clinically proven to provide continuous hydration to protect against dryness. It's also formulated with Micellar Technology that gently yet effectively removes dirt, makeup and impurities. For Rosacea, we recommend trying our Redness Relieving Foaming Face Wash. It gently cleanses to remove dirt, impurities and excess oil without over-drying or irritating redness prone, sensitive skin. Hope this helps!

    So far so good!

    My 11 year old was starting to get breakouts. I wanted something without harsh chemicals to gently cleanse her face better. So far this has fit the bill perfectly. Her breakout completely cleared up in less than a week. Her skin has not dried out at all. I decided to try it too, and so far so good. It does feel a little sticky right after washing, but that feeling goes away within a few minutes and I’m left feeling clean and refreshed. I haven’t noticed any overwhelming smell. It’s only been a week, so I will update my review if anything changes.

    Not my favorite...

    I have used this brand before and I think this one fell a little short. It doesn’t get sudsy like a soap should so it misses the mark for me

    If you’re looking for a simple, non harsh cleanser

    I’ve been using this product and it’s such a reliable everyday staple. The formula is very lightweight and gentle, making it perfect for sensitive skin, it removes dirt and excess oil without leaving my face feeling tight or stripped. I love that it’s fragrance free and doesn’t irritate my skin at all. It feels soothing and keeps my skin balanced, especially on days when my skin feels a little reactive. One thing to note is that it doesn’t create much lather, it doesn’t leave a heavy or greasy film behind.

    Why changed?!

    New formula (or some change) is horrible. My eyes itch and water and I get a headache after using the cleanser. My forehead and chin areas get redness. It doesn’t clean the skin at all. Bring the old version back!

    One of the best

    One of the best face washes i’ve used. Very moisturizing and foams very well. My skin absorbs it so well. Smells pretty good. I’ve used this for years and I have no complaints. Very affective for people that struggle with acne.

    GREAT for dry skin

    MY FAVORITE FACE WASH. It feels so nice on your skin, it doesn’t irritate you. So easy to put on at night and in the morning. I feel like my pores are so clean afterwards and it doesn’t foam much but there is a little bit of a foam showing your face is being washed correctly. It’s gentle on your skin.

    Gentle, non-stripping cleanser perfect for sensiti

    I have sensitive, combination skin and this cleanser works great for everyday use. It has a lightweight, lotion like texture that doesn’t foam but leaves my skin clean and balanced without feeling tight. It removes light makeup well and doesn’t cause irritation. The only downside is that it struggles with heavy makeup, so I use it as a second cleanse. Overall, a gentle and reliable staple.

    My Holy Grail Cleanser

    I use it every single day — to remove makeup, freshen my skin, or just feel good. It’s super gentle, even on the eyes, and leaves my skin clean, soft, and balanced without any irritation. Perfect for sensitive skin and truly works for literally anyone. I always keep a bottle on hand because it’s that reliable and versatile — a true everyday essential!

    Reliable great cleanser

    I’ve been using this everyday for about 7 years now and it works great. After use, my skin always feels so clean and soothed. It doesn’t have a strong scent which is perfect for me. I use it every morning and right before bed and I will continue to do so. This is really a must have product.
