Amazing for blackheads and pores!
I recently brought this as I love their body moisturiser for my sensitive skin. I have struggled with blocked pores and blackheads predominantly on my chin and nose and have been getting some on my cheeks and forehead. I have been using this for less than a week and the blackheads/blocked pores on my nose and chin and also disappeared. My makeup now goes on a lot smoother. It is a god-send. I have super sensitive skin that breaks out so easier and I have not found this drying at all, it helps so much with my oily t-zone.
I use Acnecide gel alongside this, which usually dries out my skin. But the combo of my acnecide gel and this face wash are brilliant. Defo the best face wash out there for acne-prone, oily skin.

Great gentle face wash that doesn’t dry skin
I’m so pleased with this product. It smells divine and has been really gentle on my skin. I love that it is not drying too which so many other face washes my acne are. I use with the efficlar duo and would definitely purchase both products again.

This product is amazing. I’ve been using it for a few years now and it has really helped my skin. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft. It is drying so you do need a good hydrating moisturiser. I use this in the morning and evening, it has helped to control the amount of breakouts I have and the oiliness of my skin. There is hardly any scent to it and is very good to sensitive skin. I use a small amount and it foams up really well. It’s well worth the price

Good price for refreshing wash and good amount
Very refreshing face wash. I recommend for oily sensitive skin like mine. No fragrance or harsh chemicals. This bottle has lasted me for 8 months and still have some left! You only need a tiny pea size, lather into a foam and gently wash your face. I love La Roche Posay products!

Doesn’t dry out the skin!!
I have incredibly sensitive skin and every other cleansing gel has always made my skin dry and has made me break out. But this one is actually fantastic! I can literally see the surface of my pores opening up on my nose where I have blackheads which is insane, and yet my skin is not dry afterwards.
I think the reason why some people experience dry skin after cleansing is because they don’t know how to wash their face. Use room temperature water (no hot water), don’t rub it dry instead pat with a towel and don’t scrub when you apply the product, always lather it up in the palm of your hands first!

Its amazing
I have combinations skin where my T zone tends to get very oily and I would get a lot of acne there . I have tried many many product that were either vey drying or didnt have an affect. After using this for 4 days 80% of the acne had either dissapeared or faded. It also prevents new acne formation.It can be a bit drying if you use it multiple times per day, but its nothing significant. The bottle is pretty big so it lasts for a long time as well.

Very good for problematic skin
I got a recommendation from a dermatologist, it cleans my oily combination skin well but doesn't irritate it. Only need a tiny bit each time, I think this will last over a year!
