I had awful acnes for years & now based on my experience: gentle cleanser is better > effaclar serum > hydrating serum/moisturizer . Too much actives are not good. Cause skin is purging & becomes sensitive. For morning… you can use cleanser > light moisturizer & spf . I didn’t go well with adapalene, benzoyl peroxide etc. effaclar serum doesn’t go well with effaclar duo. You gotta choose. Just my tipps, hope it helps. Skincare is very personal & it can’t be same for everyone.

The serum is best used at night and after 3-5 minutes you can layer it with the duo+ cream . For morning routine wash as usual put effaclar mat and spf and I’m done

I have been using the cleansing gel consistently for many many years. It's great at cleaning everything. I tried some other cleansers before and they were not enough to clean up my huge pores. This one does. But it's drying. You definitely should not wait to apply moustrizer right after it. If you apply, it's all fine. I'm not sure if I want to do it yet but I might switch to a more gentle cleanser for morning. I need better cleansing in the evening to clean my make up but not so much in the morning.

I have been using effaclar duo for some time as well. But I never used it consistenly. Used it for a month then dropped etc etc. I'm trying to be consistent about it now because I'm trying to maintain a proper skin care. I need to say, this is not very effective if you do not use it long term. But I did see benefits from using it regularly for long periods. However, this is drying too! Especially if you are using the cleanser, you cannot use this as your main moustrizer! Did that for long time and had very irritated skin which made me stop using the product time to time. Also you should use this product in small amounts. If you apply too much even once a day, your skin might feel irritated. Now instead, I started using this as my main moustrizer only in the morning but after my skin absorbs it, I apply a thicker cream on the drier parts of my skin (my chin, corners of my nose). And at night, I use another more hydrating cream. It's going good so far. Now that I dont have very irritated skin anymore, I started using differin at night as well.
Note: Its not a good make up base. I usually apply my night moustrizer which is a good make up base before applying makeup (around 30+ mins after i applied effaclar duo)

The fragrance never irritated my skin, the smell isnt significant either.

I have super dry acne prone skin and niacinamide makes my skin drier and i break out in tiny spots. I wud suggest that you try skipping the niacinamide and see if ur skin improves. Personally love, ascorbic acid, lactic acid and glycolic acid...

[NatureLoverSFL]

That lotion has benzoyl peroxide which is like anti bacterial for acne. It basically allows oxygen to kill acne bacteria, it’s a really effective acne treatment. Maybe just drop the green active serum which is excessive if used too often. That moisturizer should be used twice a day, good luck it’s a journey for sure!

La roche posay blue cleanser and cicaplast cream made my acne go away. My acne was really bad and la roche posay made my skin look good again. But before you buy it consult with a dermatologist cause everyone's skin is different and for some it can cause a break out

Hi, I'm from Philippines not fluent in speaking english but I just want to sag Thank you to you. Watching your videos somehow light up me in my darkess days. I've been struggling for acne and now acne scars for almost 20 yrs. I've already tried so many products from cheapest to expensive one .Im not financially stable also to see a doctor. I didn't enjoy my teenage years and adulthood because of my acne. Watching someone like you is like having a friend who understands me.. What can I do ? In the end you have to wake up everyday and go on with your life 🙂

I got cystic acne from the ordinary niacinamide and I used la roche posay and I think it worked out well

[gillian]

Just wanted to say you have beautiful skin! I am not sure if your still dealing with acne but it looks like you skin is speckled with beautiful little freckles and I love it!

[marcellef]

Thank you for your thorough review, Lavinia.
You are so pretty. Take care.

[nourata.]

I have moderate acne on my forehead and la roche posay saved me !

[edanuryilmaz-]

Merhaba Türkiye 🇹🇷🇹🇷 den izliyorum videon harika olmuş böyle popüler ürünleri denemeye ve bizlere faydalı olmaya devam ett❤❤❤

[kimmmri]

Is it okay if you use both the same time like morning and evening? And can you recommend what la rouche posay product can use in hyperpigmentation

[Nobinobli]

Totally agree with you. I appreciate your sincerity

[tiffanyhanbal]

La Roche posay didn’t help me😢 I still have acne on my face 😭I don’t know what to do

[saric]

all of the stuff, especially the serum made my skin burn ALOT, it started to peel, burn and its mostly red. I got those results just yesterday can someone tell me if the redness, "wrinkles" and skin that feels like it has botox will go away? if not what do i do

[dinda]

i got recovered from acnes by using some by mi 30 days miracle set and my skin now is totally acne free and havent used the products after 3 months! maybe you should try that.

[evvayz]

Hi, I have used the cream, there are some places on my face that have turned red and it has been red for almost 3 days, is it normal?plis I am very worried

[kotosulamun]

Have you ever used tretinoin? If yes, does it work for you?

[maymadison]

What happened to your Cerave SA cleanser + lotion routine? Your skin looked great with those! Did you stop using them or is this just a demo?
