I saw a post awhile back about which eye makeup remover we all like to use and I was thinking that I could use a few face wash recommendations. I'm always trying new products and haven't found the perfect match yet. What do you love?

I use plain old Clearasil for sensitive skin. It's a good, basic cleanser (which is all you really need IMO) that's fragrance-free. :)

I love Origins "never a dull moment". In the past, I've also used other Origins face washes - another really good one is their Mint Wash (so refreshing). I like their Frothy Face wash too. But I think overall, if I had to choose among these - I'd say "Never a Dull Moment" is my fave.

I LOVE formula 3 by Mary Kay. It gets all the dirt, grime, and grease away without leaving my face feeling tight KWIM?

I have fair sensitive skin and just started using Cetaphil a couple of months ago, and am really, really liking it. The texture of my skin seems so much better, and doesn't look as irriated all the time.

Another Cetaphil user here. I have sensitive, oily skin and use the Cetaphil foaming cleanser for oily skin. It does a great job, without drying my skin or making it itchy. And it's super cheap.

I also use Mary Kay foaming face wash (or whatever it's called) for oily skin on occasion - it exfoliates just a little bit very gently.

Velocity from Mary Kay. Works wonderfully on my greasy, blemish prone skin!

I use two: Neutrogena Deep Clean Cream Cleanser (a nice thick one with a slightly tingly feel that helps cut the oil) and Mary Kay anti-aging three-in-one cleanser (a good one, but slightly more difficult to rinse off).

Another vote for Origins. I've used Checks and Balances and Never a Dull Moment. However, I find that I have to switch my face wash every so often. I've also used Cetaphil and liked it.

Since I started getting regular facials, I use the products she uses on my face. The product line is called Environ and she gives me the one for my skin type (combination skin). I love the stuff. I think I've tried everything under the sun and I have a bathroom cabinet full of facial products to prove it! Time to go through it all now and get rid of most of them. :-)

Regular Cetaphil for 10 years now. To exfoliate I use Remede Sweep 1-2 times a week.

I am a cetaphil user too! The daily facial cleanser for normal to Oily skin. I started after it was recommended to me by a dermatologist! So far so good.... my face is liking it!

I use Checks and Balances, too. I've used it for a few years and it's the only one I've ever used that long.

My DH swears by Cetaphil. He has been using it for years, at the recommendation of his dermatologist. He has sensitive skin as well.

I LOVE Burt's Bees Tomato Soap. I've used it for 8 years now, I think, and doubt I'll ever switch. It might take a little bit of getting used to at first, but it is great.

I have Philosophy's Purity Made Simple and love it. It is an all-in-one cleanser and make-up remover. It also lasts a long time.
