"Last but not least is the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Cleanser. This has two percent salicylic acid, a really good option specifically for people who have acne, because in addition to the two percent salicylic acid this has a micro LHA, lipohydroxy acid, a modified form of salicylic acid, so it exfoliates in a little bit different fashion. It's a great option for people who have acne, blackheads and whiteheads, a really great comedolytic face wash, and it's a gel formula. For me personally I have encountered some eyelid dryness from time to time if I'm not careful with the frequency of use, but overall it is a very good hydrating cleanser. It does have menthol in it, which gives it almost a medicated feel with a bit of a tingle, and if your acne is very itchy that may offer some symptomatic relief, but menthol is a fragrance ingredient, so if you are allergic to fragrance be aware it could cross react with your fragrance allergies."
