Packaging :

La Roche-Posay effaclar foaming gel comes in a sturdy white plastic body & turquoise flip top tube packaging. It'll not be easy to see the amount of product remaining because it is an opaque tube. Its a travel friendly packaging.




My take on the product :

I came across this brand when my skin was in terrible form. My skin is highly sensitive, it broke out so easily. I opt to give this brand a try & I'm happy with the result. It's a french brand & France has been famous for spring water which heals sunburns, acne and redness.

Coming to the review - Its a transparent gel face wash, paraben free, has amiably fragrance, truly light & non-sticky. A pea size drop is enough to clean entire face. It lathers mildly well, cleanses any makeup residue, dirt & impurities without stripping of the skin, keeps the sebum oil in check. On the other hand this was boon to my skin while travelling as my acne was under control, acne scars faded away a bit, whitehead & blackheads were less active. My pores were thanking me to use such stuff. Overall skin looked healthy & refreshed!

Its a 50ml tube, using twice daily can last you more than a month easily.



Recommendations : I highly recommend this La Roche Posay foaming gel to all the girls/ladies out there who have sensitive skin. It's a blessing in disguise! :)

GC Rating : 5/5


LA Roche Posay Effaclar Duo(+)



Price : Rs 1300/-

Quantity : 40ml

Available : Nykaa, Flipkart, Amazon.

Packaging : 

LA Roche Posay Effaclar duo(+) comes in sturdy white color long tube packaging with a twist in cap and slender nozzle. The amount of product remaining cannot be seen because its an opaque tube. Albeit its a travel friendly packaging.

My take on the product :

Its a french brand and France has been famous for there spring water which heals sunburns, acne & acne redness. It is a light weight emollient cream which easily absorbs into the skin without making it greasy & shiny for hours. It really helped me in combating acne when I was on trip. You can see visible difference in your skin within a week, active acne tends to dry, redness around my inner cheeks has calm down, acne scars start fading a bit, kept control on whiteheads & blackheads too. I'm glad I gave this a try, it seriously soothes my skin and has been my HG cream this summer. Only a tiny amount of cream is required to cover the entire face and neck, 40ml tube can last you easily more than one & half month or depends upon how frequently you apply the cream or how inexorable is your acne. See swatch below :


Recommendations : Albeit the price tag is bit high and can be con for some of you but according to me you should splurge in products which gives you utmost result and I would highly recommend this range to all the girls especially teenagers who are suffering from acne due to hormonal changes. I'm really satisfied with the product!

Will I repurchase this range : Definitely Yes!

GC Rating : 5/5
