Q: Is this scrub a physical exfoliant as well as a chemical exfoliant? I am looking for a scrub with both.

submitted by mkbader - 1 year ago
  • A: Our Healthy Radiance Gentle PHA Exfoliating Cleanser is a chemical exfoliant formulated with a GentleBright Complex powered by Niacinamide (2%) and nourishing antioxidants for a formula that’s clinically proven to reduce the appearance of dark spots. Pair that with sensitive skin-friendly exfoliant polyhydroxy acid (PHA), and you’ve got radiant skin. For a physical exfoliant, we recommend trying our Extra Gentle Daily Scrub, which contains microfine granules that gently exfoliate to buff away dull skin. We hope this helps!

    I wanted to love it but it made my skin angry. Lots of smaller pimples and redness, and as some have mentioned, the texture of the wash is odd - very watery and will pour out if you aren't careful.

    I have very sensitive skin and this didn't irritate it at all. However, the consistency is extremely watery to the point where I thought something was wrong with the product.

    I noticed a change in my skin after only a couple uses. The liquid has a very subdued clean smell and a little goes a long way. My skin feels softer, looks healthy and bright. Very pleased with this product and will purchase the other products in this line .

    The cleanser has really helped with brightening my skin. The smell is not fragrancy because of its clean and effective ingredients that penetrate my pores into giving my healthier looking skin. I think I really noticed a difference about a couple weeks after I started using the product. It comes out really runny so be careful about spillage. 5 stars from me!

    Cetaphil healthy radiance gentle exfoliating PHA cleanser

    tonimarie101 - 7 months ago
    originally posted on influenster.com
    I have been using this facial cleanser for over 4 months now and I have grown to like this product so much. It is gentle on my skin, I have less breakouts and there is no irritation. What I also like is that fact that there are tiny exfoliating beads in the soap that doesn’t feel coarse on my skin. There is no scent and I got it reasonably priced while it was on sale. *** I do use the serum and moisturizing cream as well and it helps my skin so much more compared to prescription creams and soaps.

    Allergenic ingredients

    I like the Cetaphil Extra Gentle Daily Scrub, but wanted to try the PHA for improving skin texture. However, I had an allergic reaction to the Healthy Radiance Gentle PHA Exfoliating Cleanser after one single use. It is 24 hours later and my skin is still inflamed and itching. I compared the ingredients between the two formulas, and I'm not sure if it is the PHA (gluconolactone) itself or all the plant extracts in the Healthy Radiance formula that is allergenic.

    MM - 10 months ago
    My face was looking pretty clear and on the mend for a bit, then I decided to use the exfoliator once in the shower and my face had gradually worsened over the next few days and now in absolute pain. Last night, I double cleansed with La Roche’s cleanser specific for sensitive dry skin, and the rest of my skincare routine, with barely relief. Aquaphor had to be applied overnight. I’m so upset about it since my goal was to clear up my skin for my upcoming vacation..

    I love using this cleanser . I struggle with hyperpigmentation post acne flair up and I noticed using this consistently my dark spots have cleared up. The textures is more on the watery side compared to most face washes I used . I did not have any irritation or sensitivity while using the products . It doesn’t have a chemical smell which is nice . Overall I love it .

    I love this brand, works very well with my sensitive skin, it’s very good but the texture could be little more solid, it’s little hard to apply and get the foam consistency. But brightens the skin and makes it smooth and radiant.

    Runny, Dry skin, and acne breakouts

    Customer - 1 year ago
    I was looking for a dupe of a neutrogena cleanser that was discontinued, and like this one, this cleanser had PHA as its active ingredient. I didn’t know what a runny cleanser would feel like, but now I unfortunately do. I could be standing still in the shower away from the water, and within 5 seconds the light foam will still find its way to my eyes (burning) and my mouth (gross taste). Whereas other cleansers sit ob my face and let me move around. Right after I turn the water off, my face feels very dry. Despite all this, im now getting acne again when it used to be controlled. Its been about a month now. I don’t recommend this PHA or the Salicylic acid cleanser.

    I use this once a day while in the shower for at least 30-60 seconds. The consistency is very runny but it feels good while I’m using it and makes my skin so soft afterwards. I also have a few scars on one cheek that have been slowly fading prior to using this product but after using this cleanser for a couple nights, I’ve noticed my skin is significantly brighter and more even. Didn’t cause me any redness or breakouts even though I have pretty sensitive skin.

    I have severely dry skin and rosacea. I use this daily and it has changed my life. I have smooth skin that doesn’t it and mixed with my other skincare products, it really does change your life. Make sure to use sunscreen tho or you may burn. I did panic tho cause I’ve had a heck of a time finding it in stores and thought they stopped selling it.
