I use it once a day, and after using it, it is necessary to moisturize the skin well. I like how it gently exfoliates and cleanses. And during washing and immediately after, a refreshing sensation is felt on certain areas of the face.
I prefer the blue gel from this company more. It has a more delicate and subtle scent. This one has a slightly specific smell that some may not like. But overall, it's fine.
By the way, this gel is really great for cleansing oily scalp (I use it once a week for a more deep cleansing).
I bought this product at the pharmacy and the price was better compared to when I bought the blue Effaclar gel here. In comparison, the green one, in my opinion, works much more effectively but doesn't dry out the skin. I use it every night. I was worried when I read that it should be used 2-3 times a week. The blue gel is gentler, also very good, but everything is better understood in comparison.
I liked it. It's nice to use with a foreo brush, it foams even better. The skin becomes soft and smooth. But after using the gel, it is necessary to moisturize the skin well.
I really like it. My skin has become smooth. I have fewer breakouts.
I have been using it for the second year now. It works very well for my problematic skin. I cleanse my skin in the evening, then apply a moisturizer from the same brand. I am satisfied with the result.
Cool gel) cleanses the skin well without drying it out) pleasant minty coolness) the skin feels nice to touch)
I have very disobedient skin, constant painful breakouts on my chin. I really like the gel, it gives a refreshing sensation when washing my face, it removes oil and dirt well, and my face looks better. After using this series for two weeks, the results are good. Old pimples have healed, even though they used to take a long time to go away. The tone of my face has evened out, and new internal pimples that are about to emerge quickly disappear. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND using the cleansing gel, toner, serum, and moisturizer, as well as the SPF cream. I also use the anti-seborrheic mask from this series twice a week. Thank you La Roche for the great product, and thank you Make for the fast delivery. ))
It performs its task excellently! I used it before cleansing my face to thoroughly clean my pores. As a daily routine, I prefer my native Effaclar H. I got this one to use once a week along with the La Roche mask that soothes the skin. It's perfect to use before cleansing.
I had been searching for a long time in Kyiv, but couldn't find it anywhere. And here, not only with a discount but also at a pleasant price, I am satisfied with the quality of everything. It's nice to receive a cream as a gift too. It removes acne from the back and buttocks, for the face, it is necessary to moisturize after washing. But it does its job and fights imperfections.
цей продукт. Він працює дуже добре і виконує свої функції на високому рівні. Я задоволений його якістю і надійністю. Крім того, він має привабливий дизайн, який додає його привабливості. Цей продукт також дуже зручний у використанні. Я рекомендую його всім, хто шукає надійний і якісний продукт.
This gel does nothing, it simply provides a cooling sensation on the face... no real benefit.
After the first use, I could strongly feel the cooling menthol on my skin. However, this effect disappeared with further use, and now the gel simply has a pleasant scent and cleanses the skin. The consistency is gel-like, without any microgranules (which I thought should be present). It is also economical, as a small drop goes a long way.
I have ordered it for the second time now. I can't believe I used to torture my face with scrubs made from apricot pits :D It cleanses very effectively.
It cleanses quite decently, but I haven't seen any noticeable effects yet. I haven't used it much, but it's better than other options.
Great skin cleansing product! It can be a little drying, though.
It cleanses well and exfoliates, making acne marks less noticeable. I chose this green one because the blue Effaclar was a bit weak for my combination skin, but I must say that this green one is more aggressive and I can't use it twice a day because it dries out my skin. It's better to combine the green and blue or use the foam. I also don't like the menthol effect, especially when it gets in my eyes. For the body, it's best to use the classic version.
It cleanses well, but personally, it doesn't suit me for daily use as it starts to make my skin peel (the exfoliation works). Therefore, I use it no more than 2-3 times a week.
The best face wash in my opinion! I really like it! Get the large size right away, you won't regret it! Thanks to the makeup brand for the affordable prices!
This micro-peeling is simply wow! I have been using it not for the first time. It seems like my skin is really grateful to me for such care. Moreover, after a procedure with a professional cosmetologist, she advised me to massage my face with this micro-peeling for at least 1 minute for a good result, and I recommend it to you too.
I purchased this product for body use as recommended by a dermatologist. It effectively cleanses and adequately dries without causing excessive dryness. It is definitely worth considering.
Great product. Cleanses the skin well and treats breakouts. I also noticed its healing effect on the scalp. I had developed dandruff and couldn't get rid of it, but after using this product once, the dandruff disappeared. (It should be understood here that the dandruff was likely caused by my skin needing a deep cleanse or exfoliation).
I ran out and immediately ordered a new one!
I highly recommend it! It's a fantastic product!
This is a very good face wash gel. I used the blue one before, but it didn't cleanse my skin enough. This one works perfectly! Thanks to the salicylic acid, my skin feels fresh and soft, and acne appears much less frequently and heals faster. If I moisturize my skin enough after washing, there is no dryness or flaking. It may actually help with post-acne, but based on my observations, it's not more effective than the blue gel. It really works well in combination with Effaclar Duo+, which I have been using for six months now, and my pimples and post-acne have reduced significantly. I am waiting for my face to be completely clear.
I really like it! I have problematic skin on my face, and it cleanses excellently. I only use it as a face wash, and it works great! It doesn't sting, cause redness, or make my skin flake, at least not for me. My skin feels clean and refreshed after using it. I highly recommend it! Oh, and it doesn't irritate my eyes either. I will definitely continue purchasing it. Thank you, Makeup, for the fast delivery.
I have been using this product for a year now, based on the recommendation of a cosmetologist, and I am extremely satisfied! I used to have terrible acne, despite not being a teenager anymore (I am 34 years old), but I have very oily skin and enlarged pores. The cosmetologist advised me to use the Effaclar line: this gel, Duo+ cream, and a soothing toner (from a different line, to avoid drying out the skin). In just two weeks, my pimples completely disappeared!!! I then added the serum from the same series to get rid of the marks and minimize my pores. It has been a year now, and my skincare routine has remained consistent. My skin looks amazing, my pores have tightened, and I have gotten rid of the oiliness and no longer need to use powder constantly. I only get a few pimples occasionally before my period. It's a great find for its price! But it's important to use the entire series, as replacing one product might not give the same results. I highly recommend it to everyone.
I can't say that it's for oily/problematic skin. It burns in certain areas. Comedogenic. The scent is chemical, reminiscent of cheap children's bubbles. I don't recommend it to anyone and I won't be purchasing it again.
The face was generally clean, but the cosmetologist recommended it for enlarged pores and small breakouts. On the second day after using it, I noticed a couple of subcutaneous pimples. On the third day, they appeared along with red inflammations, and by the fifth day, my face was generally red and slightly burning. Five years ago, a dermatologist prescribed me a blue gel, and the reaction was exactly the same. The cosmetologist recommended this green one because it has a different composition and supposedly doesn't dry out the skin as much, according to her claims. Overall, it's now the sixth day and I don't think I should continue using it. I'm afraid to apply it to my shoulders and back now because I assume it will only get worse. A couple of years ago, I used different acids, and I didn't have such a reaction.
Unfortunately, it did not work at all. I used it on my body - chest, back, where breakouts appeared. It only got worse.
This gel is the best blue one, in my opinion blue really dries out the skin. I use this one during the summer when my skin gets oily quickly, it doesn't cause any new breakouts. I like it and I will buy it again.
I really like this gel, it's economical and does its job well. It doesn't dry out my skin. After using it, my skin feels clean. I will definitely order more.)))
It has been exactly a year since I started using this face cleanser. I use it myself, and my boyfriend has also used it a few times. It spilled in our suitcases a couple of times because it wasn't closed properly. And there is still 200 ml of product left. It is the most economical gel that I know. We didn't become friends with it immediately because it initially dried out my skin (it wasn't used to acids and started peeling a bit). But after a few weeks, it got used to it. I had blemishes from acne. Without any cosmetic procedures, they have almost disappeared in a year (thanks to the active ingredients in my skincare routine since July - AHA and niacinamide). The gel does a great job in enhancing their effectiveness. 5+ rating.
Great product! I'm ordering it for the second time now. If you leave it on your face for about five minutes and then rinse it off with a cleansing sponge, all the dead skin cells are removed and your skin feels refreshed and rejuvenated. It becomes smoother and more radiant.
This is a good gel that I use for washing my face. You only need a small amount of the product. It cleanses the skin well without causing any dryness, redness, or inflammation. These issues gradually disappear.
I have been using it for almost 2 months. It is used economically. However, I have not seen any effect. Pimples continue to appear on my back and décolleté area.
- Helps combat acne
- Provides thorough cleansing
- Economical
- Can be drying, so moisturizing afterwards is a must
I have been using this product for 1 month. I have noticed that my face is less oily. The acne marks have become lighter. The gel peel doesn't dry out my skin like the gel cleanser from the same series. It has a minty smell and a cooling effect on the skin.
I am very satisfied with this product, I bought it for my teenager. They had black spots and small pimples, but now there are no black spots at all, only a few left which my child removed (previously, this could only be done in a cosmetologist's office, as they were very difficult to remove). I will order more when it runs out. Thank you!
I received this as a gift in a 50 ml format (by the way, thank you to the company for such pleasant surprises, it's truly a gesture of respect towards the customer). It's simply amazing, truly unbelievable. Once it runs out, I will definitely order more. This is the first exfoliator that actually works without drying out my skin.
The courier delivery was on time and everything was good.
The consistency of the gel micropeeling is transparent with a hint of menthol scent (no scrubbing particles, but there are acids). My skin is combination type (+ prone to allergic reactions). The effectiveness of this "product" for me is ambiguous (neutral exfoliation; occasional allergic reaction - rash). I use it once or twice a week.
I bought this product at the beginning of winter. It is very economical (my boyfriend and I have only used 2/3 of the 200ml package until mid-summer). It is best to use it on dry skin. The effect is better that way. On wet palms, squeeze a small amount of the product and lather well.
After using it, my skin feels so soft! It's pleasant to touch. After about 25 minutes, the first flakes appear. And that, in my opinion, is the only downside of this exfoliator. It can easily be removed with Effaclar H, so it's not a problem. It took a few weeks for my skin to get used to the acidity. After 1.5 months, my face stopped peeling and got used to the salicylic acid in the composition. It's perfect.
As for its effectiveness, after a little over six months, I noticed a reduction in acne marks. They haven't completely disappeared, but this is not the main product I use to combat them, it's just a cleansing exfoliator. So it fulfills its functions completely. When it runs out, I will definitely buy it again.
What about this product:
✅Consistency: gel-like, without any particles, foams well;
❌Smell: when foamed, there is a noticeable menthol scent, but with negative notes (there is something resembling gelatin in the aroma); (Different strokes for different folks:);
❌Does not handle certain claimed tasks, definitely does not work as a peel. At least on acne-prone skin, it does not remove flakes at all. Even if you combine several products from this line.
✅Does not tighten the skin, removes shine, matte finish (the effect of fresh skin lasts for about 2/3 hours);
✅After application, a pleasant freshness is felt, the face feels cleansed, without impurities, coolness, there may be slight tingling (but pleasant), very easy to use.
✅Not a big expense, I would say it's average.
❌In my opinion, the price is inflated for such an effect, but it's typical for this brand.
Overall, you can buy it for variety, to change your cleanser for a while, or as an addition to your cleansing routine. But definitely don't expect it to be a peel.
✅The ingredients are good. 3.5/5.
Thank you for the package. The gel is decent. It's too early to draw conclusions about the condition of the skin. Let's see!
I use it for my back and décolleté area to combat acne, and it has a very good effect.
"This exfoliator is absolutely amazing."
So far, this is the best cleansing product I have used. I have ordered it for the second time! It is very economical as you only need a little bit, and after using it, my skin feels pleasantly fresh.
I was afraid to use it on my face because I had a negative experience with the Effaclar series before. But for my body (back and décolleté), it's simply a find! The gel completely removes excess sebum and my back skin has significantly improved in quality in just a month. There are practically no new breakouts! I am completely satisfied, it's the perfect option for oily body skin.
My favorite. Small pimples, excess fat, it's all in the past. It doesn't dry out, it cleanses and moisturizes beautifully. Truly effective. It has a pleasant smell, and after washing, it leaves a refreshing minty coolness on the face. The consumption is very economical, I have been using it for 3 months already and haven't even used half a jar. Nice bonus.
This product is really cool. I have mature skin (I'm 42) with a tendency to breakouts, so I was worried it might be too aggressive. But no, everything is fine.
This gel cleanses very well, leaving a feeling of freshness and not drying out the skin. I use it on my face after removing makeup with the same brand's micellar water. I'm not sure if it will have a significant impact on the number of breakouts, but it definitely can handle quality cleansing.
This is a great product, but it is important to understand how often it can be used, as it is a chemical peel. Some girls misuse it by using it twice a day.
The gel is simply amazing! I am delighted with it, I have been using it for over a month and my subcutaneous pimples have disappeared, leaving my skin feeling very smooth. I will definitely repurchase it.
However, this product does not work on its own. Its purpose is to cleanse the skin, so it is ESSENTIAL to apply a moisturizer afterwards (whichever suits you) to avoid any feeling of tightness or dryness. Personally, I use it together with a toner to minimize pores, also from La Roche, and then seal it with a moisturizing cream from the same line.
Regular use of this product has significantly reduced breakouts on my back! Breakouts on my face also fade faster. It gives a pleasant cooling sensation after washing. I love La Roche!
This product did not work for my oily and problematic skin. The cleansing is great, but it excessively dried and irritated my skin, leading to new breakouts (although this could be due to the acids).
The gel effectively cleanses and mattifies the skin. On the third day of use, a couple of inflammations appeared, but it is most likely just a skin reaction to the acids present in its composition. Now everything is fine. I use it in combination with a serum based on three acids from the same brand and the results are quite noticeable.
I received the mini version as a gift, and it cleanses well, but it slightly irritates my sensitive skin. I use it once or twice a week.
Disappointment with the entire product line. After 3 days of use, my skin became excessively dry, the areas around my nose became severely red and painful, and my skin felt tight and irritated. The same happened with the toner from this same series.
This gel is simply awful! If you have problem skin, steer clear of it because it will only make it worse. I tried it multiple times and each time it caused breakouts. Even though I use many other products from the Effaclar line, as well as other La Roche series, this one was a disappointment.
This gel is perfect, even better than the blue one. It feels like my face can breathe after using it. I have no plans to switch to another one.
Good face cleanser. I was worried it would dry out my skin, but it doesn't. The gel mousse dries out more. It has a pleasant cooling effect, removes oily shine, and brightens the skin. However, I didn't notice any improvement in fighting breakouts.
The product is too dry.
