Are you, like I am, tired of the endless battle against oily skin? It's can be a tricky balancing act - finding a product that effectively combats oiliness without stripping away your skin's natural oils. But if you've been on this journey, endlessly searching for that perfect cleanser, I've got some good news - your quest might be nearing its end!

Meet the Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser- a household name yet a game-changer in the world of skincare for oily and combination skin types. This isn’t just any cleanser; it’s refreshing and effective without the harshness that accompanies many others. So are you ready to say goodbye to compromise and hello to clean, balanced skin?

What Is It?

The Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser is specially formulated for oily and combination skin types. Its gentle yet effective formula contains vitamin B3 and pro-vitamin B5, ensuring your skin’s natural moisture barrier remains intact. This cleanser works to reduce the appearance of pores and controls oil production, all while removing dirt, oil, and makeup without causing dryness or tightness.

Additionally, it’s a dermatologically tested formula, free from parabens, mineral oil, and soap, making it a safe choice for sensitive skin.

Our Thoughts

This cleanser is a game-changer for oily, acne-prone skin. The texture is a mix of a gel and oil-based cleanser and the product does not lather up. whether you put it on a dry face or dampened skin. I’ve been using this for six months now the difference is extremely noticeable. My skin feels cleaner and less greasy, but without the harshness that leaves it feeling tight and uncomfortable. The cleanser’s ability to control oil production while preserving the skin’s natural moisture is super impressive. Plus, the noticeable reduction in pore size is a definite bonus.

It’s a little bit expensive for a daily use face wash (especially if you use it to double cleanse) but apart from that, no complaints. There’s a reason everyone loves Cetaphil so much, and you need to try this out if you’ve been looking for a good gentle cleanser.

How To Use It?

Start by wetting your face with lukewarm water. Squeeze a small amount of the gel onto your fingertips and gently massage it onto your face in a circular motion. Focus on areas prone to oiliness. Rinse thoroughly with water and pat your face dry with a soft towel.

Alternatively, you can also use this on a dry face – especially if you have water-proof makeup on. I also regularly use this to double cleanse (can be used as the first or last step, pair with a cleansing balm or water-based face wash).
