For me.. one of the best facial cleansers for oily and acne-prone skin. It removes makeup perfectly

I have acne but it incredibly dries out the face!!! It is for people with severe acne. In mild acne, it causes dryness and dehydration.

  This review is about a variation of the product

  This is the second time I bought it. I have been using it since November because my face had acne back then. In the past few days, I noticed that my face was very dry after cleansing, and when I went to the dermatologist, he told me that this specific cleanser irritates the skin a lot and gave me another one. I wouldn't buy it again.

  I have been using it for many years and I am satisfied. It does a very good job in cleaning, but if you want it for makeup removal, it does not remove all the material you have put on.

  It is a very good facial cleanser for my teenagers with slightly oily skin and some acne. We can also use it, but then immediately apply moisturizer because it will dry out the skin!

  I have combination skin, without acne, and I use it every day morning and night and I am fully satisfied!! Even with such use, it lasts me a long time, as it does not require a large amount. I recommend it!!

  Very good and cleanses the face perfectly (even with makeup). I have oily skin and prone to acne.

  It is logical for it to dry out your skin, as its purpose is to cleanse it deeply, so after the soap, moisturizing cream is necessary!

  After trying many, this is the only one that effectively cleans the sebum to prevent acne! I've been buying it for years!! As soon as I pop a pimple and wash my face twice afterwards, I see it slowly disappearing!

  I used to buy it in the past during acne periods. Now I think it dries out my skin, especially the first few times of use until the skin gets used to it again. However, it does a very good job in removing makeup and you don't need a large amount, which means it lasts a long time.

  Well, I am a 16-year-old teenager without much acne, however, I have some black marks and some pimples on my chin and nose (only there and the rest of my face was CLEAR!!) so of course, I consult with a pharmacist and even where they do my facial cleanses... they strongly recommended this product line to me. After 2 days, I broke out with acne everywhere, EVERYWHERE, and irritation that unfortunately I have been suffering from for 4 months now. I don't know if it's my own case, but my mother and brother who tried it once unfortunately had the same results.

  I have been using it for years, every 2-3 days, and I wouldn't change it for anything. It matches perfectly with my skin and I haven't noticed any dryness or anything else negative. It also has a wonderful scent!

  I have tried many cleansers over the years, but none like Avene's Cleanance... it is truly wonderful, it cleans deeply, and my skin afterwards is really clean despite having very oily skin. It also never causes dryness for me, as I read in some reviews. As for pimples, the truth is I haven't noticed any difference so far. I also tried Caladerm's cleanser, but it is mediocre to bad. I highly recommend Cleanance and when it runs out, I will buy it again!!!

  I bought it because I had some minor acne on my forehead and as soon as I started using it, it got worse.
  My face would become oily and produce more after a few hours.
  It's not suitable for all skin types.
  I highly recommend it⬇️
  La Roche Posay
  1. Blue soap
  2. Effaclar cream
  It's amazing, they disappeared in one day and it smells perfect!

  This review is about the volume: 200 ml

  From the number of reviews that have already been written about the product, it is evident that it is quite popular. For me, it is the only thing that does what it is intended for, and yes, it has definitely been written about before, but if someone doesn't have acne, they shouldn't buy it. It is not for oily skin. As someone who has both acne and oily skin, it is the only product that I feel cleans my skin. I have tried all the equivalent products from well-known skincare companies. Also, it requires a small amount, yes, it dries out the skin and it is not meant for makeup removal, it is meant for acne. In my younger years, I had a period of small pimples that were caused by an iron falling on my face. The green line of Avene, specifically the Cleanance line, saved me and since then, for fifteen years, I haven't changed it.

  I used it for 1-2 years, I don't remember exactly because I had acne. After a dermatologist's recommendation and appropriate treatment, my acne was gone, but the product alone did not bring desired results. It dries out my skin and after a while it was like I wasn't cleaning my face as the pimples I was getting never went away until I started using Avene's Cleanance Hydra Soothing Cleansing and with the same creams I used in the beginning, all the pimples I had disappeared. I still use Hydra Soothing even now and personally, I prefer it

  I have acne-prone skin and I was given this product from the pharmacy. At first, it was good, but after several months, I started getting pimples or the existing ones wouldn't go away. It causes dryness and I use it once a day. It is a strong product and I wouldn't buy it again. The only positive thing is that it removes makeup well and produces enough foam

  I have combination to oily skin with a tendency for acne, and I was recommended this cleanser. I used it for a while and it dehydrated my skin so much that at one point I had to apply two layers of moisturizer and it still kept peeling. The pimples continued to appear along with the dry skin. I went to another pharmacy to get a different cleanser and mentioned that I was using this particular product, and they told me that dermatologists recommend it for people with cystic acne because it is very strong and completely dries out the skin. Since I stopped using it, thankfully my skin has returned to normal.

  A good facial cleanser that I, who have oily skin, felt my skin squeaky clean after using it! But somewhere here I should emphasize a few things ... 1) The skin gets dehydrated after use 2) In some areas, you also get dryness 3) It is average for makeup removal!
  Maybe in the future, I would consider buying it again because it is an effective product, just definitely not during the same season to avoid the two first things I mentioned above!

  I used to buy the Uriage hyseac equivalent facial cleanser for acne-prone skin, but because I saw that this Avene one is extremely popular, I decided to invest in this particular product! It is excellent and leaves the skin velvety! Since it does not contain active acids such as salicylic and AHA, as my supply ran out: it requires a sufficient amount to cleanse the face and create foam, the only disadvantage of it

  As stated in the product description, it is for oily skin. It cleans deeply, addresses oiliness, has a light pleasant scent, and the packaging with the pump is practical.

  It requires some moisturizer after use, as it tends to dry out the skin. I believe this is expected for it to be effective, as facial hydration is always necessary after cleansing with a gel.

  I have been using it for about 2 years now, and I have no complaints.

  It deeply dries out the skin from the first contact, even after moisturizing the feeling remains, I do not recommend it and I would not buy it again. Harsh product even for oily skin prone to acne.
