🧼 For Dry Skin: Creamy and Dreamy

Dry skin doesn’t need any more help losing moisture — so go gentle.

Look for:

• Cream or balm cleansers

• Ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, or oat extract

• No sulfates!

Avoid:

• Foaming cleansers that leave your face squeaky-clean (that’s not a compliment)

🫧 For Oily Skin: Balance Without the Burn

Oily skin still needs cleansing power — just not the kind that strips your face like paint remover.

Look for:

• Gel or foaming cleansers

• Salicylic acid or tea tree oil

• Non-comedogenic label

Avoid:

• Oil-based cleansers (unless double cleansing)

This oil-controlling cleanser is a must — grab it here.

🌗 For Combination Skin: Dual Duty

Your T-zone and cheeks want different things, but your cleanser should keep the peace.

Look for:

• Balancing gel-cream textures

• Ingredients like niacinamide or green tea

Avoid:

• Products that are too drying or too creamy

This balancing cleanser hits the sweet spot — check it out here.

🧴 For Normal Skin: Keep It Chill

Your skin is basically on cruise control — so your cleanser should support that, not stress it.

Look for:

• Gentle, everyday cleansers

• Vitamin C or mild plant extracts

Avoid:

• Harsh exfoliants or trendy actives (save those for serums!)

This no-fuss cleanser is a daily winner — try it here.

😬 For Sensitive Skin: Soothing is the Word

Sensitive skin needs less drama and more hugs.

Look for:
