Review: I am going to be as honest as a I can. I switched to this product because Roche had discontinued one that helped me a lot to get rid of my acne. I used this one and I started breaking out twice as what I did when I used the other one but as I kept using it, I noticed my skin getting clear again. This product actually cleans you skin from very deep. i have always had small bumps on my face that take a squint of eyes to see and I noticed how this really took all of that out! I still break out but when they go away I don’t break out ever again on the same spot. Wherever you put it on your face, you’re gonna get a pimple if there’s already a pump there, this thing works from very deep of the skin to the surface. Al I can say is that I really liked this product. It isn’t rough on the skin whatsoever. It’s gentle and doesn’t burn. I have purchased it 4 times already and my skin is now feeling new! It takes patience but it’s worth it.
Review: Great if you only have some acne in specific spots that you want to get rid of. Got rid of my acne in a week of using every night if the spot I wanted to. You don’t have to use a lot so great value for money the texture is perfect . And you can tell it is high quality. Doesn’t have a smell which is good for acne cream.

*by C***. on 22 December 2025*

This La Roche-Posay Effaclar Salicylic Acid Acne Treatment has been a game changer for my skin. The lightweight gel-cream texture absorbs quickly, feels non-greasy, and layers well under moisturizer or makeup. It noticeably mattifies my skin without making it feel tight or irritated. It works great on blackheads, whiteheads, and clogged pores, and I’ve seen fewer new pimples since adding it to my routine. I also really appreciate that it’s gentle enough for sensitive skin—no burning or redness for me. With consistent use, my skin looks clearer, smoother, and more balanced. I’ll definitely keep repurchasing this one.
