Gel for oily skin, lotion for dry, nothing that leaves the face tight.
Pick your answers and the shelf shows only what fits.
A lotion cleanser with three ceramides and hyaluronic acid. No foam and no tight feeling, which is also why some owners feel it never quite washes off.
Skip it if you wear heavy sunscreen or makeup and want it off in one step
The gel version for normal to oily skin, with ceramides, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. Takes off oil and everyday makeup, and drier skin tends to object.
Skip it if your skin is dry or stings easily
A short-list cleanser with no fragrance, dyes, parabens or lanolin, dermatologist tested according to the maker. Very plain, which is the point.
Skip it if you want it to remove waterproof makeup
A low-pH gel with a little betaine salicylate and tea tree oil. Easy for mornings, but the tea tree smell divides owners, and the maker wants makeup off first.
Skip it if tea tree oil bothers you, or you dislike a medicinal smell
A cream face wash with glycerin, niacinamide and ceramide for normal to dry, sensitive skin, fragrance free and dermatologist tested according to the maker. It suits light makeup, and a steady group of owners report burning.
Skip it if you wear heavy makeup; owners use a remover first
A creamy cleanser with glycerin, niacinamide and panthenol, fragrance free and dermatologist tested according to the maker. Many long-time users say it is not the cleanser they knew.
Skip it if you loved the old formula; owners say the new one stings or leaves a film
A green gel with kale, spinach and green tea extracts in a mild surfactant base. It rinses off easily and costs far more than a drugstore gel; the herbal smell has added fragrance behind it.
Skip it if you are on a budget; $39 MSRP is a lot for a cleanser
A soft cream cleanser that polishes rather than foams, with fine cellulose grit and rice powder. Lovely to use until you react to the fragrance, which is high on the list.
Skip it if you react to fragrance or citrus oils; both are on the list
