Awful product. I’ve been using Olay moisturisers for years so thought I’d try their cleanser. Very disappointing. It smells like plain soap and leaves my face squeaking without a drop of moisture. Way too drying. Show details

Horrible! – I purchased total effects 7 in one and play complete with sunscreen. After using for 3 days my face looks like I have 3rd degree burns. My face is so red and itchy it better not have caused permanent damage. Do not ever use these products Show details

product works just fine – I was given a trial pack of this and after running out of it, I decided to purchase a full-sized bottle. I have normal to dry skin and I notice that my dry patches are now gone after using this. It removes my makeup.

Good budget clenser – I have been using the total effects foaming cleanser for 2 months now. I have dry skin but it doesn't leave it tight or shiny. It removes makeup really well and little bit goes along way. All in all a good product for a budget price. I like this cleanser better than the total effect cream cleanser as it is more effective at removing makeup.

A pleasant surprise! – I didn’t expect much of this product as I don’t love foaming cleansers for my dry, sensitive skin but I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised! A little goes a long way because it will take a while to rinse off otherwise. My skin is left squeaky clean without that annoying tightness so common with foaming cleansers. Thumbs up from me.

should be followed up with a moisturizer – i must say that this cleanser works well as I realized that my skin has lifted and I look less dull. One thing though is after using washing my face using, I feel a little tightening on my cheek area and dryness down my jaw line. However, there is no stinging. If you'll be using this, rmeember to have a layer of moisturizer or moisturizing toner

Great if you like a foaming cleanser – I have been using Olay Total Effects foaming cleanser for three years now. I prefer the soapy, foaming feel rather than a cream. Takes off all makeup except waterproof mascara and leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. Definitely use a moisturiser after. Has helped with my acne problem. Inexpensive Maybe a tad drying so better for oily/combination skin

Great all rounder – I have been using this cleanser for about 4 weeks now. I dont usually buy it but i was on a holiday island and this was the only one at the supermarket to buy. It is a great no fuss cleanser. You only need a tiny bit or it lathers up too much. Lasts a long time, good price Sometimes hard to wash off, you would need a toner as sometimes doesn't rinse

Good – my boyfriend uses this cleanser.. he really likes it, and i must say it does work helping lift dullness..he says it dries his skin out alot though, however he uses the olay moisturiser aswell, so i think it might help a bit to lower the drieness. Overall a fairly good product. will definitely continue to buy it for him. Leaves skin feeling and… Read more

looking fresh and clean

Lifts dull skin cells, which makes skin look brighter

Can be used on younger skin aswell.

Seems to clear skin up a bit. Can make your skin feel dry at times (if a moisturiser isnt used)

OK – I thought this foaming cleanser was great for the price that it cost, it foamed up and took of the days make up with no worries, I did notice that my skin definatly needed a moisturiser afterwards, It is a good product for the price you pay. It is not one that i would use over a long period of time by no means but as a reserve if you have run out of your normal cleanser well it beats soap. A good cleanser for a good price.

OK – I bought this facewash as a change from others I had used I liked the fact that my skin felt soft and looked clean but noticed the next day I had dry skin patches which I had not experienced before. It is reasonably priced compared to some other brands that I have used and thought it would be quite suitable for my skin as I have used the total… Read more

effects moisturiser without any problems, but like i said I got dry patches so I probably won't continue using it once I've finished the tube. leaves skin feeling clean and soft dries skin out

Bad – I got this cleanser as a bonus when getting the total effects moisturiser so it was a really good deal . After I had used the cleanser the few times I have I must have to say it didn't really agree with my skin. Yes it did a good job of cleaning my face, yes it also left my skin sofer when followed with the noisturiser. But after a while of having… Read more

used it I noticed my skin had started to dry out and lacked moisture on parts of my face. This is unusual for me because I never suffer from dry skin, I have a more combination to greasy type skin, it wasn't suited to me but it may work fine with other peoples skin. Cleans skin. It left my skin feeling really dried out.
