Q: Does this cleanser foam?

submitted by mia - 1 year ago
  • A: Hi there - Differin Daily Deep Cleanser is a creamy formula and lightly foams when it emulsifies. It cleanses skin with a dual-action, micronized formula that penetrates deep into pores to absorb excess oil, while releasing a gentle moisturizer that won’t clog pores. When using, apply the cleanser to a damp face and gently massage all over for about 20-30 seconds, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly, pat dry, and you’re done! We hope this helps.

    This face wash has worked wonders for my skin. It’s definitely on the strong side so you have to start light, only using maybe 1 time a day. Followed by a good moisturizer. If you start to peel, switch to cleansing balm until it subsides and then go back. Your skin will adjust, and once it does, it will be SO smooth! Clears acne. Your skin will feel and look 100% times better

    BE CAREFUL W THIS FACIAL WASH. I got it because i’ve been getting cystic acne around my chin area and I’m at my limit with it. I should’ve just only washed my chin with it because after washing my face 3 times with it (every other day) I have contact dermatitis/allergic reaction. I’d say maybe this will do others wonders, but I did not see any size difference in my cystic acne (it was just 3 washes) and now I have to heal a reaction from it. I’d suggest only using this product 1-2 a week if you’re trying it for the first time. Now my face looks worse. :/ (I do not have sensitive skin that I know of and I do moisturize every single day so dry skin was not an issue prior to using this face wash.)

    Dguzz - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I initially loved how much gentler this was from other BP washes. The 10% is superrrr drying because of the surfactants so high on the ingredient list but this one was more gentle. My biggest issue with this is that it has these microscopic little beads for exfoliation ? You can’t detect it in between your fingers but I really felt the scratchiness on my face. It felt very irritating. Back to the CeraVe 4% I go.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Differin Daily Deep Cleanser has seemed to help calm down my chin breakouts. I like that it is for acne but it isn't quite as harsh as some of the other acne washes. It leaves my face feeling clean without it feeling super tight and dry

    Differing is the only face wash that keeps my face clear. With 5% Benzoyl Peroxide as its active ingredient, it will wash away the bacteria on your face and in your pores. It has a smooth texture and washes away easily.

    Never really had much acne my whole life but started to develop it. When I first started using it, it burned a little and dried out my face. I persevered through it and saw results after around 4 weeks. 2 months later my skin is so so so much better. I use it every night and sometimes in the morning as well depending how my skin feels that day. Also, the bottle has lasted me 2 months and I still have a lot left. Definitely recommend.

    Since I use the Acne gel for my rosacea breakouts and it works exceptionally well, I thought I would try the DDC to ward off any rosacea flare ups. I have comb-skin so tried it for a week and it left my skin clean, smooth but my forehead was very shiny. I didn't care for the shiny part. After a full week, my skin was very itchy and the skin under my eyebrows started peeling and then one of my eyelids did the same. Needless to say I quit using it. I had high hopes for this product!

    I’ve noticed Differin has never worked for my skin. I used the gel a couple years ago for 2 months straight and it just made my acne worse. I figured I’d at least try this out with my hormonal acne and it didn’t do a single thing for me. I have lightly oily skin and it made it feel odd, almost like it was oily and dry at the same time. I’m 99% I’ll never use this brand again.
