Cleansers
Here are my cleanser recommendations. I try to designate skin type for you. In general, if you’re on a budget, this is a good place to save money. Gentle Cetaphil or CeraVe work just fine. Cleansers are only on your skin for seconds usually. Having said that, many of us (including me) prefer something more fun or more elegant so there are several choices here. Also see the acne section if you have acne.
