What the gurus are saying

This foaming cleanser cleans thoroughly without stripping the skin barrier, thanks to barrier-supporting ingredients like niacinamide and ceramides that leave skin soft rather than tight. Gurus recommend it especially for oily and combination skin, noting it controls oil production while still feeling clean and comfortable afterwards. It earns a stamp of approval as a safe choice during breakouts.

"If you have combination skin or oily prone skin, you can use a product like the Cetaphil Gentle Foaming Cleanser because this not only adequately cleans the surface of the skin so you get that nice clean look, but also what it does is it supplements your skin barrier so it gives things like humectants to the skin so it doesn't over strip your skin. When I use this because I've got that sort of combination oily, sensitive skin, my skin feels kind of nice and soft, really clean afterwards, and it also controls the oil production as well, which is fantastic."
