Great for cystic acne!
So I have bad cystic acne and was recommended this product and I can say it has definitely helped and decreased my breakouts and cleared up the horrible breakout I had before I got this! It's a nice gel and foams up real nice and smooth. It's not a thick heavy gel either. It's very nice on the skin and no strong scents/fragrance. It doesn't dry my skin out and pairs well with their double terrain moisturizer!

Excellent product at a great price!
The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Cleanser with 2% salicylic acid has made such a difference in my skin. It cleans thoroughly without over-drying and really helps keep breakouts under control. My skin feels fresh, smooth, and balanced after every use. High-quality skincare that actually works. I’m very impressed and will definitely keep repurchasing!

Really strong for oily/acne‑prone skin — just needs the right support
What I liked: The 2% salicylic acid, combined with LHA and glycerin, was clearly formulated for oily, acne‑prone skin. The brand says it “deeply cleanses, reduces surface oil by up to 47%,” and is “fragrance free, oil free, non‑comedogenic, suitable for sensitive skin.” ShopSavvy +4 laroche-posay.us +4 Influenster +4 After a few weeks of use, I noticed fewer clogged pores, smoother texture, and somewhat less frequent breakouts (especially in the T‑zone and around my chin). From other users: “It’s terrific for acne‑prone skin, reduces oil and prevents breakouts.” Influenster +2 Influenster +2 The gel texture and foaming action are pleasant — it gives a “clean” feel without feeling like you’re scrubbing your skin raw. One user noted “the gel itself is quite runny… after rinsing my skin it feels incredibly soft and cleansed without any residue.” Influenster +1 Good “trust factor”— it’s from a reputable brand, dermatologist‑tested, targeted for the exact skin issues I had. That helps. What could be better / things to keep in mind: Because it’s a stronger acne‑targeted cleanser, if your skin is normal to dry (rather than oily) you might feel some tightness or dryness. Several users reported dryness or flakiness, especially around sensitive zones. ShopSavvy +1 Some users commented on the packaging/dispensing: the product is somewhat “runny” and the tube cap may leak if it stands cap‑down. For example on Amazon: “the bottle is constantly leaking… I will not buy this anymore.” Amazon While it helps with breakouts, it's not a full cure for serious, cystic or hormonal acne all by itself. One review said “it may not be effective for severe acne.” bestsellerreviews.net Because there’s active acid (salicylic) you’ll want to pair it with a good moisturizer and maybe limit use if your skin starts showing signs of barrier stress (redness, sensitivity). For budget‑conscious buyers: given the brand and performance, it’s a bit more expensive than basic cleansers. My verdict: If you have oily skin, frequent breakouts, clogged pores, maybe blackheads or excess shine, the Effaclar Medicated Gel Cleanser is a very good choice. I’d give it 4 out of 5 stars. I would buy it again — but I’d go into it knowing: Use a moisturizer afterward. Don’t expect miraculous overnight results, but consistency helps. If your skin is sensitive or already dry, maybe use it only once a day (or alternate nights) rather than twice immediately.

Best Acne Face Wash for Dry Acne Prone Skin
I normally don’t write reviews, however this acne face wash is the best face wash I’ve ever used. Lately I had been struggling with massive breakouts and I swore nothing was getting rid of them until I started using this face wash! Within a week of using this, my skin looked and felt the best it’s ever looked/felt in a very long time. So to the person scrolling through the reviews wondering if you should buy it….YOU ABSOLUTELY SHOULD!

Great Product, terrible to travel with
I love the product. It cleans my face and makes me feel fresh. I do have to apply lotion after or my skin will feel tight and dry. I have pretty sensitive skin and this doesn't bug me. It also does well with me not breaking out. My biggest complaint is the lid sucks for traveling. I travel a lot and I have to put the bottle in a ziplock baggy and it always leaks a ton! This may have just been the one bottle that has this problem, but it is very annoying to travel with.

The Ideal Cleanser for Sensitive Skin
This cleansing gel leaves my skin clean and fresh without drying it out. Its gentle formula is ideal for daily use, even on sensitive skin, and removes impurities without irritation. After using it, my skin feels comfortable, clean, and balanced.

Worth the purchase
Good quality, not too thick, and it does emulsify very well. I has good ingredients, especially the salicylic acid for acne prone skin like mine. Is not too hard and doesn’t leave my skin feeling dry. I pair it with their B5 moisturizer & my skin stays happy.

Worth it!
Finally a salicylic acid cleanser I can use daily. I have very sensitive skin. Two days of an over the counter face wash and my face would be burned up, dry, scaly even. I've used this for 2 weeks now and nothing of the sort. Exfoliates as advertised. FSA eligible... IYKYK. No dyes, no heavy fragrance, nice lather. One container will likely last me a few months. It's a win for me.
