Effaclar Purifying foam cleanser
A soap-free foaming gel cleanser for oily skin, with zinc pidolate for oil control. Used morning and evening.
Morning and evening, massage onto wet skin in gentle circular motions, rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Avoid the eye area.
- Zinc pidolate included for oil control
- Soap-free gel that foams on wet skin
- Simple twice-daily cleanse
- No acne or exfoliating active, so it cleans but does not treat
- The brand names only one ingredient, so there is little to evaluate
