The BEST over the counter product for acne solutions. I've tried tretinoin, accutane, spirnolactone, and other topical solutions but I found this gel to work quickly without the side-effects. Prescriptions for adapalene can be expensive so I would gi...

I've been using this cleanser since I was a child. It doesn't dry out your skin, it actually does the opposite due to it's creamy texture. Some cleansers break me out and cetaphil never has. It's also great at moving makeup like mascara and eyeliner ...
