Disappointed with new formulation
Used to love this product, but it's thin and doesn't foam anymore. It's hard for me to tell if I have enough on my hands and face, or if my face was even cleaned.

New formulation is terrible
Used to really enjoy this but their new formulation is terrible. Was five stars, now would not recommend.

Hi there! Thank you for your feedback on our Facial Fuel Energizing Face Wash. We are so sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the new formula, especially since you loved the original version so much. We recently updated this product to be more eco-friendly and gentler on your skin by moving to plant-based ingredients. While this makes it better for the environment, it does mean the cleanser has a thinner texture and creates less lather than before. We truly appreciate your honest feedback about these changes, and we have shared your comments directly with our product development team for future improvements!
Beautiful work
Refreshing feeling that leaves my face feeling clean and hydrated.

Changed formula is awful - discolored and loose
Why does L'Oreal keep changing the formulas on Kiehl's products?... Been using this for 10-15 years and now suddenly, it's so thin that it slips between your fingers (used to be more like a gel than slick goo) and it turned from blue to a weird rust within a couple weeks. Likewise, the scent is somewhat reminiscent of the original, but lacks its depth - smells like an artificial imposter. They seem to be milking a once great brand for whatever remaining cache its name used to hold - same retail pricing while cheapening their products

Never in stock
Loved this product. However, it's never in stock anymore. The "notify me request" does absolutely nothing to help me as it doesn't send any notifications.. Have you discontinued this product or are you just bad at stocking?

My husband loves it!
Got this for my husband and he loves it! It’s not greasy at all and absorbs well, keeps his skin hydrated.

Bring it back
Absolutely ridiculous that this product was discontinued. Rising prices have led me to limit my purchases but this was one of my favorites! Stop updating just to update!! Keep what people love and stop pretending an alternate is just as good - it’s not!!

Refreshing and Easy to Use
I’ve been using Kiehl’s Facial Fuel Energizing Tonic for a while and really like how fresh and clean it leaves my skin feeling. It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and gives my face a refreshed feeling without leaving my skin dry or sticky. Great addition to my daily routine, especially after shaving or washing my face.
