La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ Gentle Foaming Cleansing Oil, Gentle Oil Cleanser for Face and Body Formulated with Niacinamide, Long-Lasting 24-hour Hydration, Fragrance-Free & Soap Free

I’ve gone through so many cleansers trying to find something that wouldn’t dry out my sensitive skin, and this one is a winner. It’s gentle but still gets the job done—leaves my skin feeling clean, soft, and hydrated instead of tight or stripped. I use it on both my face and body, and it’s become a staple in my routine, especially during the colder months when my skin tends to get itchy and irritated.What I really appreciate is that it’s fragrance-free and soap-free, which makes it perfect for anyone with eczema-prone or reactive skin. The added niacinamide is a nice bonus too—it’s calming and helps reduce redness over time. The texture is more like a light gel-oil than a thick oil, and it lathers up just enough without being overly bubbly.If you're looking for something truly gentle that still cleanses effectively and leaves your skin feeling moisturized afterward, this is worth trying. A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts longer than you'd expect. Definitely one of the best hydrating cleansers I’ve used.

I've tried many oil cleansers and this is the one I'll stick with. I have seasonal combination dry skin (dry all over in the winter, normal with dry T-zone in spring and summer). I've used Bioderma shower oil (the huge bottle, not the biosensi one which I heard was a good one but haven't tried it), Purito oil cleanser, manyo original oil cleanser, all types of Banila Co cleansing balms, Anua oil cleanser, and in the past 2 weeks, this La Roche Posay (LRP) oil cleanser. It's the only cleanser that neither dries out my skin nor breaks me out.Here's a crash course on oil cleansers: there are oil based oil cleansers and there are water-based oil cleansers. Sounds confusing, I know. When you read the ingredient list, if the first ingredient is water, it is a water-based oil cleanser, otherwise, it's an oil-based oil cleanser. Both types work by dissolving the grime and makeup on your face with an oil or lipid, then emulsifying that gross oil with water to make it rinse off clean and not leave your face greasy. The oil-based oil cleansers have to be applied on dry face with dry hands, then emulsified by adding a bit of water, then rinsed off. The water-based oil cleansers can be applied on wet face since they contain water already, and they tend to foam up (emulsify) very easily.Among the cleansers I've used, manyo, Purito, Banila Co, and Anua were oil-based oil cleansers. They are excellent at removing makeup and exfoliating dead skin. They tend to break me out though, despite me emulsifying them very thoroughly and double cleanse with a facial soap afterwards. Bioderma and LRP are water based and they don't exfoliate so well, but they also don't break me out. They do a decent job at cleansing my face. I don't wear makeup except lipstick and they can take care of that easily. I do wear sunscreen, but that's not something I can be sure whether they can remove completely or not. Bioderma is cheap but leaves my skin a bit dry. LRP is cheap, just not as cheap as Bioderma, and does not dry out my skin at all.TL:DR: If you have very dry skin that's not prone to breakout, and/or you wear heavy makeup, and/or you want an excellent exfoliator, use an oil-based oil cleanser (manyo, Anua, Banila Co...) Make sure you start with dry face, dry hands, massage thoroughly before adding a bit of water to emulsify, then then rinse off. Your face should not feel oily afterwards, but if it does, try double cleanse with a foaming cleanser afterwards.If you have dry-ish skin that's prone to breakouts, try a water-based oil cleanser (LRP, Bioderma, Cerave...). With these you can actually double cleanse with the same cleanser, in case it doesn't take all of your makeup off in one go.

I have dry skin and eczema. Tried Cera Ve hydrating cream to foam cleanser and it left me so dryer out that a few weeks in I found myself on here searching for a different face wash. This one does the trick and cleanses without over drying. I follow with moisturizer and my makeup goes on smooth because my skin is hydrated. Would buy again

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This facial product set has completely transformed my skin. My face feels smoother, more hydrated, and my dark spots are fading. The cleanser is gentle yet effective, and the serum absorbs beautifully without leaving a sticky film. I love how refreshed my skin feels after each use. I’ve finally found a skincare routine that works for me!

My face is sensitive to everything, b it this product has done a pretty good job of not drying my face out. It's effective & gets rid of makeup & dirt & easy to use.

Love this cleanser. I use it daily, I love how clean it leave my skin, but it doesn't leave it squeaky and feeling dry. It feels moisturized and soft. I never want to use another cleanser again. The texture if not oily, it feel more like the texture and thickness of body a clear bodywash.Something to note: My wife used it and she had eczema, it did not go well for her. She broke out in hives on her face, not aggressive but a few bumps appeared after she used it two days in a row.

YES YES YES get this if you have sensitive skin!! Such a game changer and it takes off makeup too. I literally have 3 bottles stocked up at home because I can't live without it. I use it every night as a second cleanser to take off my makeup. Super gentle, no scent and lathers so well and leaves my skin feeling soft and clean

This body wash was recommended to me by my dermatologist because I have extremely extremely dry scaly skin. It is wonderful. It really works. When you pair it with a lotion by the same company, it is amazing. It locks the moisture in. It may be a little more expensive than others, but you get what you pay for literally! And it doesn’t have a cheap perfume smell very much like a spa clean fresh
