@wonderfulworld    I have been using Kylie Skin foam cleanser.  It is gentle and a little goes a long way.

Last night I checked out the Elemis brand of products.  Yeow!  That line is out of my tax bracket Smiley Surprised

A board certified dermatologist out of NYC that I follow on YT says this about cleansing oils and balms.  Dry skin = cleansing balms.  Oily skin = cleansing oils.  I've used both.  Tatcha cleansing oil, Glow Recipe cleansing balm and now Huda Beauty cleansing balm.  I've liked all three (my facial type is dry).

For me, nothing beats good ol' Neutragena. They have at least 3 facial cleansers in pump bottles. I recommend Foaming Cleanser in the light blue bottle, but also love Deep Cleanser and their original gold cleanser. All are foaming, gentle, and remove makeup.

Vanicream and CereVe are also excellent. You don't need to spend big bucks to find a good cleanser!

Where do you purchase yours from @Marlies ?  I'm seeing it running around $12 on Amazon.

No wonder my skin was getting dried out while using a cleansing oil !  I suspected it was my oil cleanser all along.

Now I use a cleansing balm and it's so much better.

Re: Looking for a new cleanser… advice please.

My new favorite is Clinique's All About Clean 2-in1 cleansing + exfoliating jelly.  I really like the consistency of it -- not too many harsh scrubbies -- and my face looks and feels great after.  I think it's done a very, very good job of cleaning out my pores.  I like it so much I ordered two more when Macy's had their 15% off beauty sale.
