Need suggestions for a slightly moisturizing face cleanser please!

I have used Purity for at least 10 years or more but lately my skin feels tight afterwards. I need a reasonably priced product, could someone recommend one please? My skin can be sensitive sometimes not always, could be firmer (I wish), not a lot of wrinkles (upper lip, crow's feet on the left side) just a few, I am 57. I am thinking one found at the drugstore or Ulta's, TIA.

Cerave makes a nice cleanser. I use the foaming version for normal/oily skin but my mom uses the hydrating version and loves it for her drier skin.

I have really been loving Laura Mercier's One Step Cleanser. It is milky/creamy and smells good. It seems to be lasting me a long time. It was $35.

Prior I was using Philosophy and my skin was becoming very dry and tight.

Have you ever considered oil cleansing? I am so happy with Dr. Young Camellia Deep Cleansing Oil. It gets all my makeup off and leaves my face clean and soft. I order it on Amazon. I only need to use two pumps so the bottle lasts a pretty long time.

I'm LOVING the Tatcha duo, oil and polishing rice powder. I still cannot believe I went for it, very pricey. However, before doing so I tried the Camellia deep cleansing oil and similar rice enzyme powder both found on Amazon, and they just do not compare. I will continue on my search for good less $$$ substitutes, but so far it's Tatcha hands down. Really quite lovely.

I have been using the Tatcha. Love the feel. Feels like a spa treatment, which I've never actually had!

But, even that can make my skin feel tight afterward.

Fresh soy facial cleanser - I think they actually sell a smaller size at Nordies for around $15 to try.

Kiehls ultimate facial cleanser.

In the worst of the Winter, I switched to Aldi's "Lacura Hydrating Facial Cleanser" for under $3.00 and really liked it. I only used it when the heat was kicking on almost all day because my skin was dehydrated. It is pH balanced, for all skin types, and gentle. (It does have a strong scent so many people may not like this.)

I also use Purity for my combination skin most months and know that it can leave your face a bit tight.

My sister used this while visiting during Christmas and loved it (Lacura)!
