lately i've been using aveeno's creamy baby wash. it's for babies (obviously), but it's a great gentle face wash. i have seen definite improvements in my skin since switching to it.

Cetaphil!! love it. I also wanna try Eucerin but Cetaphil works so well for me that I just stick with it. Give it a try.

my fave cleanser is olay sensitive skin foaming face wash (tube/pump = same thing). the best proactiv k/o is klear action. acnefree is not as good.

 
I have oily-acne prone skin. I try to use products that have no added colour or fragrance. I use either Ivory or Jergens clear liquid face/hand soap. I mix 1/2 tsp of baking soda with 1/2 tsp soap. The baking soda helps remove make up and also acts as an efoliate.

 
i have used for a good 15 years now St. Ives Apricot scrub. it comes in sensitive, regular and a medicated one for acne prone skin.It has a nice tingling affect and u can feel it work instantly. I recommend using it it least once a day and it is reasonable priced. It leaves the skin feeling soft and exfoliated.

I also use the "real" proactive and it works wonders. I have been using it for 4 months now and it cuts down on the break outs and the severity of them too. i have seen the knock off of it in the stores, but i don't trust knockoffs.

 
I've been using Nubian Heritage soaps, they're made of natural ingredients and are really gentle, but I keep Boots Cucumber Facial Wash or TBS Tea Tree Facial Wash on standby just in case.

 
I like the Olive Oil thing too because I have super dry skin but, eventually towards the end of the week I feel like I have dead skin and extra gunk left behind from not using an actual cleanser so, I usually break down and end up using cetaphil... I also liked "olay age defying cleanser" it left my skin really soft.

reapply make up? I have never understood this concept. does it mean u reapply everything including foundation? and if so do u first wash off all the old make up or do u reapply over it. if u reapply over it imagine how bad u are clogging your pores and how caked your face must get. i use 2 diffrent types of l'oriel fondation. i use true match which blends to your natural skin color or if i am working all day i use infallible. i find that with either one i have no need to reapply. reapply is really a scarey word in my book.

 
I have used Biore Ice Cleanser, and I think that it depends on your type of skin but it worked for me halfway but it didn't go the full length and give me the skin that I want. So, maybe if you're having trouble with your skin that you shoudl see a dermatologist.

 
oh and im not sure if anyone has said this but

it also depensd on ur skin type and wut ur trying to accomplish with the cleanser

-help fight acne

-help fight rosacea

-remove makeup

-just to clean?

-or 2 or more or all of the above! XD

 
Oil of Olay has a nice daily renewal cleanser that I really like esp when $$$ is tight.

 
i can say this though. As women i dont believe regular bar soap is enough. i think we need these special cleansers. soap is just too drying. though maybe for some of u dove works. but i will never use soap on my face.

I have to disagree, I think it's a bit of a myth that bar soap is drying because surely a 100% natural bar of soap is less harsh then a liquid cleanser filled with chemicals, I agree that certain soaps would definately be more drying though but not all. I think a special cleanser may only be neccesary to remove make up, but I'm sure some people have said using Dove alon works.
 
well i dont know if its the best but i use clean and clear oxygenating foaming facial cleanser,it foams up great w/o water and after using it my face feels clean and not oily.i also use the facial scrub.
