Smells awful!
This has been my go-to face wash for years! I have very sensitive skin + rosacea and I have always had the best luck! However, they must have recently changed the formula because it smells SO BAD. I almost can’t use it! I’m very disappointed!!!

Gentle & Effective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave this to my teenage son to use and give me his opinion. He liked that it foamed up well in the shower and made his skin feel clean and soft after use. He has a few teenage pimples and it didn’t irritate them at all. Would recommend to people with sensitive skin or teens starting to use skincare. He said he likes it more than the Clinique Beginners Set.

My Go-To Cleanser
When I decided to stop using foaming facial cleanser, I started using Cetaphil. I then tried a few different, more expensive brands, but keep coming back to Cetaphil. It's gentle, non-drying and does the job. Plus, the price is right. WHile I do use more expensive brands, I keep this on my bathroom counter for daily use. It's a long-term winner.

Average cleanser
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This skin cleanser is nothing special, but also didn’t irritate my sensitive skin. A small amount goes a long way way and it leaves the skin clean, but not tight feeling. The bottle I tried did not have a pump and wasn’t sealed, which I thought was strange.

Smooth. Easy to apply and hydrated skin
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This silky smooth cleanser was light and odourless. Easy to apply with a flip top. I found this cleanser actually added hydration and didn’t increase my acne prone skin like other products I have tried.

Very hydrating!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love the hydrating nature of this product, my face feels really soft and smooth after using the cleanser, however, I do feel that after using my face doesn’t feel very clean. I usually use this after another cleanser because of this

Great for sensitive skin
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I remember cetaphil being the first cleanser I ever used as a teen as it’s super gentle on sensitive skin. I completely forgot about this cleanser until I got reintroduced a few weeks ago & boy do I still love it almost 15 years later! It cleanses your skin super quickly, lathers up nice & isn’t heavily fragranced which is nice. Will definitely continue using. Great for sensitive skin :)

A gentle cleanser
I like that this is a no frill cleanser. Not the most appealing packaging but it gets the job done without drying out your skin or causing any kind of irritation.

Great product!
I struggle with dry skin and this product definitely was gentle on my skin and did not strip. When I wore heavy makeup I found that I had to double cleanse.

Smooth and easy to applu
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Smooth to apply and very soft. Best used in shower with a face scourer. Leaves a smooth gentle clean face. Small bottle makes it easy to handle especially in the shower.

Sensitive and has no smell.
A very gentle cleanser very helpful for those with sensitive skin. Has no fragrance. I personally did not like it because it does not sud. A good option for those who like a mild wash.

Leaves skin feeling smooth.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaging is small and slim which means it doesn't take up much space. Feels smooth and doesn't feel like it removes oils from the skin. Leaves skin feeling clean and hydrated. Smells okay, nothing special about the smell.
