The La Roche Posay Toleriane Cleanser is easy to find at drugstores and is often on sale or promos like getting a second one for 50% off. It also comes in a large bottle. It can be used as a gentle morning cleanser and a second cleanser at night as it seems inadequate for removing makeup or heavy-duty sunscreens, which seems common to most water-based cleansers without being harsh. Also, there’s a slight stinging at first.

Cleansing Agents - It doesn't have any cleansing ingredients, which is the reason for its gentleness.
Ethylhexyl Palmitate - It contains Ethylhexyl palmitate, a substitute for mineral oil that works in the same way as it acts like a solvent that dissolves the oils and impurities on the skin so they are easily wiped off the face. Plus, it's moisturizing, making even the driest of skin types softer and smoother, and it's not gonna strip the skin because it moisturizes as it cleanses. Also, its origin, mineral oil, undergoes a strict purifying process to remove all toxins making it safe even for sensitive skin and non-toxic.

Formulation - It's soap-free, sulfate-free oil-free, fragrance-free, allergy-tested, paraben-free, and essential oil-free, so there's nothing to irritate; rather, it includes niacinamides, which have soothing properties. There are no cleansing agents, but it has a creamy and milky texture, so it shouldn't be stripping or drying. It also states that it's for dry skin types, including sensitive ones.
Glycerin - It contains glycerin, a humectant that attracts moisture from the air into the skin. Specifically, as the skin goes through the cleansing process, glycerin draws enough extra water to keep its moisture levels high, and once done, the skin will be soft and smooth. Therefore, it's most beneficial for those with normal to dry skin type.
Ingredients - The ingredients are Aqua/Water/Eau (La Roche-Posay Prebiotic Thermal Water), Glycerin, Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate, Propylene Glycol, Ammonium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate, Polysorbate 60, Ceramide Np, Niacinamide, Sodium Chloride, Coco-Betaine, Disodium Edta, Caprylyl Glycol, Panthenol, T-Butyl Alcohol, Tocopherol, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Dipropylene Glycol, Carbomer, Sodium Hydroxide, and Ethylhexylglycerin.
Panthenol - It contains Panthenol, which is a skin-protecting hydrating ingredient.

Propylene Glycol - It contains propylene glycol, which is a standard humectant and thickener.

Water-Based - It's a water-based cleanser with a few ingredients, including glycerin, which doesn't normally irritate the skin.

Hydration - It gives a hydrated feeling; although there's no hyaluronic acid in it, other components can hydrate the skin. However, the user did get irritated skin after use.

Performance - It works as a gentle cleanser for a user with a combination, acne prone skin who also uses dermatologist-prescribed topical creams for their acne. Their topical creams dry out their skin, but the cleanser leaves their face feeling clean and smooth. Usage-wise, they use it twice a day, morning and night.

Removing Makeup - It's a hydrating cleanser, but a user claims it to be non-drying instead of hydrating. Most users claim it to be able to remove light makeup but unable to remove heavy makeup. With heavy makeup, they recommend using it as a second cleanser after using a makeup remover or double cleansing with it, but a user who double washed with it felt a burning sensation afterward.
Skin Compatibility - It seems compatible with dry and sensitive skin as it's marketed towards those with normal skin. Also, users with oily and combination skin find it to not work for them.
Usage - It can be used morning and night as the skincare routine's first step.
beautiful with brains - GIO
Use - It can be used on dry and wet skin; get 2-3 pumps of the product, then massage it to the skin; it's important to note that it lathers but doesn't foam, then after massaging for about a minute, wash it off then pat dry the face for probiotic benefits. Some users use it with Clarisonic as well for massage. After washing, it will give a clean feeling without being stripped.

After Wash - After washing, it will leave a moisturizing film that's supposed to help with dry skin and make the skin feel soft and moisturized.
Irritation - Some users experienced irritation and drying after using the product, which one thinks is due to niacinamide. In contrast, the other user found double cleansing to help with the irritating feeling.
Redness - A user had red and irritated cheeks after using the product and thought it might be caused by niacinamide or ceramides.

Cerave Hydrating Cleanser - Cerave Hydrating cleanser doesn't make the skin feel stripped of oil but doesn't leave a film like the dermo cleanser.

Comparison vs Biologique Recherche Lait E.V. - The LRP has a more elegant formulation and is more enjoyable to use. In contrast, the Biologique Recherche Lait E.V. is a gentle and hydrating cleanse that leaves no residue, but you'll need a first oil or balm cleanse to get rid of sunscreen and makeup in addition to any hydrating cleanser.
Abbey Yung
11/26/2020
Comparison vs Cerave - LRP will soon go cruelty-free; it moisturizes the skin well and works well for dry, rosacea, acne-prone, and oily skin; it's also non-drying but contains ceramides that can potentially irritate. Formulation-wise, it's thicker and lathers more. In contrast, Cerave causes reactions in some users, such as breakouts, tingling, drying, and crusting; also, it doesn't effectively remove makeup. Overall, both are creamy though Cerave has more of a waxy texture; both are soft and moisturizing to the skin. Performance-wise, they are both unreliable for removing makeup as they don't contain oil. Ingredients-wise, they overlap in some, such as the ceramides. Still, the concentrations for each are not identified, and Vitamin E is common in skin care products as it's a good antioxidant to keep the skin in good condition. Additionally, other users use both products depending on their needs.

Comparison vs Cetaphil - Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser makes the skin feel dry and stretchy, while the La Roche-Posay works better.
Makeup&Beauty.com - Parmita Dey
02/15/2017
Comparison vs Toleriane Caring Wash - Caring Wash is better than LRP, while the Dermo-Cleanser is overshadowed by being a lesser product, and it's only recommended over Caring Wash for those with sensitive skin that can't tolerate the surfactant in Caring Wash as the Dermo Cleanser doesn't contain any cleansing agents making it ideal for a no-rinse cleanser. Also, it has a creamy and silky texture that doesn't fully rinse clean unless you use a decently large amount, while Caring Wash can be easily rinsed, which makes it a better option as they have a similar price. Additionally, Caring Wash has a nicer ingredient list with niacinamide and ceramides, while the Dermo Cleanser has value if your skin is highly reactive and very sensitive.

Comparison vs Vanicream vs Aveeno - The Vanicream Gentle Cleanser has great texture and soapiness, but the Aveeno and LRP are better morning cleansers during winter.
benenon
01/24/2022
Comparison vs Vanicream - The Vanicream feels like butter with some steam incorporated, which is perfect for combo or oily people with sensitive skin or skin barrier damage. In contrast, LRP is the only cream cleanser that doesn't leave a weird residue, and it lathers, which is great. On the other hand, some users may not like Aveeno because of the oatmeal smell.

Toleriane Caring Wash - In the toleriane line is another wash with "innovation" and "caring wash" on it, which is also a great cleanser.

Packaging - It comes in durable sleek white plastic bottle packaging that looks neat with blue and black fonts. It also has a pump dispenser that works well.
Purpose - It's recommended to help mitigate the drying effects of Retin-A, and it's meant to be used as a single-step gentle makeup remover and cleanser for irritating sensitive skin and not as a second cleanser after an oil cleanser as it doesn't have surfactants to remove oil like other cleansers.

beautiful with brains - GIO
Who It’s Not For? - It's not for people with oily skin or who wear a lot of makeup.
