Review on La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying 🧼 Foaming Gel Cleanser: Perfect for Oily Skin! by Ada Sutor ᠌

I have oily problematic skin, which I dried out with foaming gels and facial soaps in my tumultuous adolescence. Growing up, I refused SLS in the composition of cleansers, but a sudden surging skin problem (heavily sprinkled my forehead) made me go to a dermatologist, who advised me this gel. So, the gel is transparent and liquid, I really like its smell, I associate it with something hospital. Packaging - a tube with a lid - is inconvenient, because. because of the liquid consistency, the gel leaks, and there is a problem with the dosage - I always pour it in excess, but for a comfortable wash, there are enough funds with a couple of peas. It lathers slightly, but this does not affect its cleansing properties. In fact, I have only two questions about cleansers: how well it cleans and how much it dries. More than this, no remedy will give anything, they are on the skin for too short a time for the effect to be more pronounced. This gel cleanses really well: in the evening it washes off the remnants of cosmetics (if suddenly the makeup remover failed) and sebum, in the morning - the night cream remaining on the face. I didn’t notice any special cleansing, the black dots remained the same. But although it does not cleanse "to a squeak" and the first minutes there really is no feeling of dryness, later the skin tightens. Without a moisturizer (which I forgot to apply a couple of times at night), peeling appears on the forehead and on the wings of the nose, so the gel did not pass the test for the degree of dehydration (but, given the composition, I had no illusions about this). After three weeks of use in the morning and evening, I can note a rather severe dehydration, which a whole arsenal of hyaluronic serums and creams can barely cope with. Perhaps I will no longer use this gel and will return to more gentle products without soap in the composition.
