Common questions

Is La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Face Cleanser healthy?

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Face Cleanser scores 28/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Face Cleanser?

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Face Cleanser lists 17 ingredients, starting with Water, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Decyl Glucoside, Glycerin and Sodium Chloride. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Face Cleanser contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Face Cleanser’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Face Cleanser?
