Cleans but creates skin redness

After a weeks use my skin seems damaged and have red patches all over. Too aggressive for me.... these go back and never again

JUNK! Doesn't clean your face.

This is the worst facial cleanser I've ever used! After washing my face, every single time it feels like I just smeared wax on my face. Seriously ladies, just use this product as directed, rinse it off, and then gently use your fingernails all over your face. You'll see gunk and putty makeup underneath your nails. This isn't a cleanser! I don't understand all the good reviews.

Hi there! We’re sorry to hear our Hydrating Facial Cleanser did not give you the experience you were expecting. We understand how frustrating it is when a cleanser leaves behind a feel on the skin that does not seem clean or comfortable to you. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us.

I'm not a fan of this product. It does not feel like I've washed my face, and I often have to follow up with soap. I will not be purchasing this again.

I double cleanse for one minute with each cleanse, and there is still makeup on my face! I have used dozens of cleansers, and this one is the WORST at removing makeup. Also, I don't like that it feels like I am rubbing lotion on my face. That feeling does not satisfy me or make me feel clean. My skin is getting worse with this cleanser. Don't buy it.

Love Cerave - Hate This Product

Face card never declines. I love other CeraVe cleansers and use their moisturizers daily. This product, irritates my skin, has a weird feel on my skin, I don't wear makeup, always wash twice, leaves skin insanely dry. The drying part is surprising as this product is supposed to be for dry skin. I do feel like it negatively affected my skin. I'll use the rest as a shaving cream, foot cleanser or for my underarms. Never on my face again.

Worst customer service .

Worst experience ever. Didn’t get the delivery . When called the customer service, long holds on calls, lots of run around and no resolution. Paid for the stuff that can’t even cancel. Went to the club and bought it again . Talked to the staff there, no help at all. Such a disastrous service.

Not My Preference

This didn't lather well and it felt as if I was putting lotion on my face.

No Suds

No suds. Feels like slime. Face doesn’t feel clean after washing

Hello Lisa T! Thank you for sharing your candid feedback regarding our Hydrating Facial Cleanser. We understand that its unique texture and lack of suds might feel different from what you might expect from a traditional cleanser, and we appreciate you letting us know your experience. This particular cleanser is thoughtfully formulated to be a non-foaming, gentle cleanser that effectively removes dirt, oil, and makeup without stripping the skin's natural moisture. Its creamy, hydrating texture is designed to leave your skin feeling soft and comfortable, helping to restore and maintain the skin's protective barrier with essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid. While it doesn't create suds, it is diligently working to cleanse and hydrate, ensuring your skin feels clean and nourished, rather than tight or dry. Your insights are invaluable as we continually strive to meet the diverse needs of all skin types.

Not for all skin

Hello Victoria! The Hydrating Facial Cleanser is specifically designed for normal to dry skin with three essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid to cleanse without stripping the skin's moisture barrier. Because this formula has a unique, non-foaming lotion texture, it may feel different from traditional cleansers that use harsh surfactants. A helpful tip for oily or combination skin is to try our Foaming Facial Cleanser, which uses a gel-to-foam technology to deeply cleanse while still maintaining the skin's protective barrier. This ensures that every skin type can benefit from the essential ceramides and hydration that our dermatological formulas provide. We appreciate your insights into how this cleanser fits into your unique skincare routine.
