Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser is discontinued - now what?

[Anonymous]

I’ve been using this for probably 15 years to remove my makeup, as a cleanser even when I’m not wearing makeup, and wash my makeup brushes. It’s the absolute best product out there and I’ve never seen anything similar. I’ve even been trying another Neutrogena cleanser the ultra gentle daily one and it’s not the same. I’m so incredibly disappointed in Neutrogena for this. I emailed customer service and they responded “ There are many potential reasons for product discontinuations, such as consumer demand, ingredient supply, or new product lines! We've still got you covered, and think you would love our new Hydro Boost Gel Cleanser, which you can find on our website here” I do not believe it’s due to consumer demand not being there - and it’s definitely not ingredient supply - many of the ingredients are in plenty of their new products.

Anyways - please help!!! If you have a good makeup remover please let me know. I do not like the balms, melts, micellar water, oils, cold creams, Cerave. And I absolutely HATE the microfiber clothes like the Makeup Eraser - I think I’m allergic, they irritate my skin every badly.

Have you tried the Clinique Foaming Facial Cream? I like it, but have to use it sparingly as it dries me out. I just like the way it feels on my face.

I have not - is it good for removing eye makeup?

Check out the Clean & Clear line of face cleansers. Clean & Clear and Neutrogena are both made by Johnson & Johnson. There could easily be a product that is similar to what you like.

Have you tried the aveeno foaming cleanser? There's an anti-redness/low irritation one that is unscented and gentle to use aroound the eyes.

I have no - I can give it a try. I love Aveeno lotion. Thanks!

I know you said no Cerave but still I do really like their cream-to-foam cleanser specifically. And I never liked any of their cleansers before that one.

How about Neutrogena Ultra Gentle Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser for Sensitive Skin?

OP you have ruined my day. I’ve used this for decades and didn’t know it was discontinued! Wondering if I can hunt down some leftover bottles at CVS before it disappears forever.

Paula’s Choice Clear Pore Cleanser or Oil Reducing Cleanser.

I think Aldi has a knockoff of this. I bet this is going away as well, but maybe check these stores to stock up.

Cerave now has a hydrating cream-to-foam cleanser that removes makeup. I've always had pretty blemish-free skin but I've gotten a lot of compliments since switching to it.

I just started using Garnier micellular cleansing water. I have a reusable pad and rub it onto my face - no rinsing needed. Removes makeup too.

I'm the PP who uses this. The one I use specifically is the Aveeno Ultra-Calming foaming cleanser. It is fragrance free.
