  Pros

  I used to use this after being recommended it from a dermatologist treatment. They said it's good for troubled skin, and while there is some irritation or anything like that, it's been usable without any issues.

  Cons

  The price is a bit high, and it doesn't really do anything special like getting rid of blackheads or anything. It's just been usable without any problems. There haven't been any breakouts either.

  Pros

  At first, I bought it from a dermatologist, but I have a cursed oily and sensitive skin. This product provides adequate oil removal and doesn't leave excessive tightness after cleansing. It's one of the products I've been using consistently.

  Cons

  It doesn't seem to have any effect on removing dead skin or blackheads. It's not very suitable for severely oily skin.

  Pros

  The large size, clean fragrance, and small, soft bubble texture make it thoroughly cleansing. Contrary to what some have said, I did not experience any slippery finish. It is a mildly acidic formula suitable for sensitive skin.

  Cons

  I initially heard good things about La Roche-Posay, especially the Effaclar line, through word of mouth. Luckily, I had a sample and tried it. The next morning, I was amazed to see a significant reduction in oil in my T-zone, so I went ahead and purchased the full-size product at a high price. However, after about a week, the oil secretion in my T-zone returned to its previous level. I wonder if I've developed some kind of resistance to it. Do I need to shake it before use? It's exactly the same as before. Here's a list of reasons why this foaming gel is not worth buying: - Unnecessarily expensive - Mildly acidic cleansers can effectively remove oil, but other cleansers can do the same. - The 'low-irritation' claim is questionable - check the ingredient list. While it doesn't cause any specific skin issues, it's certainly not as gentle as claimed. - It's effective at temporarily removing surface oil, but has no impact on blackheads or whiteheads. That's its only real benefit.

  Tip

  You know, these days direct imports are trending, and there are many domestic users of La Roche-Posay who praise it highly. Of course, everyone's skin is different, so those who find the perfect match are truly lucky. But some people seem to revere it just because it's a French thermal spring brand and a so-called 'pharmacy' brand. Abroad, drugstores sell all kinds of products, not necessarily because they are medically effective. La Roche-Posay is actually a brand owned by L'Oreal, the well-known cosmetics company.
