Review on Roche Posay Effaclar Medicated Acne Cleanser by Nicole Baca

Skin type: Sensitive, oily, acne-prone, uneven and dull, with blackheads, redness. I've tried many, many cleansers for blemish-prone skin in my life and this is one of my favorites. In fact, La Roche-Posay has some of my favorite skincare products, so I wasn't surprised! It is very soft, lathers beautifully and leaves the face feeling exceptionally clean without tightening or stripping moisture. There was a noticeable difference in the clarity of my skin within the first week of use! I like to wipe my makeup off first with a microfiber towel and then wash my face with this cleanser to remove the first layer of makeup and dirt. I wash my face a second time so the salicylic acid gets into my pores and really cleans my face down to the pores. I will also use a konjac sponge 2-3 times a week to gently exfoliate the skin on the second use. I have many skin issues and this really seems to work for me in terms of mild but effective control of oiliness, pimples and especially blackheads. Exfoliation does its best to help with dullness.
