Recommended by 90,000 dermatologists worldwide, La Roche-Posay, and a La Roche-Posay cleanser is one of the most recognized skincare brands and products in the world. If you're new to this storied brand and its phenomenal cleansers just know that it's one to trust — La Roche-Posay is all about dermatologist-tested skincare.

La Roche-Posay takes safety standards seriously and prides itself on creating products suitable for even sensitive skin. Its products are formulated with ingredients that are allergy-tested, non-comedogenic, and tested on sensitive skin. Its most signature ingredient? A selenium-rich Thermal Spring Water, derived from the heart of an ancient spring in the French town of La Roche-Posay. Dating back to the 17th century, this mystic spring is the source of the soothing antioxidant water that has defined the La Roche-Posay brand since 1975.

To get you started on making La Roche-Posay part of your skincare routine, we've curated this selection of the top La Roche-Posay facial cleansers. From micellar waters to foaming creams, we've surveyed the range of available products and picked the very best for you.

1. La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Cleanser

Keep your complexion pristine morning and night with the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Cleanser. Formulated with Ceramide-3 and La Roche-Posay's exclusive Prebiotic Thermal Water, this face wash gently removes makeup and impurities while keeping moisture retained. Glycerin and niacinamide fortify the skin's protective barrier, maintain pH balance, and deliver hydration. A milky texture that works up to a smooth lather leaves skin feeling soothed and refreshed.

2. La Roche-Posay Toleriane Purifying Foaming Cream Facial Cleanser for Sensitive Skin with Glycerin

This water-activated formula makes it safe and simple to cleanse complexions irritated by eczema, rosacea, or acquired sensitivity. The rich lather rinses away easily to keep skin from becoming irritated or overly dry. Great for combination to oily intolerant skin types, it's free from fragrances, preservatives, and parabens.

3. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel Cleanser for Oily Skin

Making the most of its minimal ingredients and fragrance, the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Cleanser delivers thorough cleansing with high tolerance foaming power.

4. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Micellar Water

The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Micellar Water is a perfect introduction to using micellar water. This innovative technology cleanses using micelles suspended in purified water. These tiny spherical particles work to draw out dirt and grime from the skin, pulling out impurities like a magnet. As a result, dull visages are left clarified and refined. The addition of mineral and antioxidant-rich La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water keeps skin feeling pure as can be.

5. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Deep Cleansing Foaming Cream

Give yourself the luxury of a deep cleanse with the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Deep Cleansing Foaming Cream. This cleansing cream is easy to lather up and washes away just as effortlessly. Large and blocked pores are cleansed, unclogged, and tightened for a more refined appearance. As a result, the skin is left soothed and softened. It's ideal for oily and thickened skin suffering from active acne and high sebum levels.
