| | | Best cleanser for oily/combination breakout-prone skin?
Title says it all. I'm on a search for a cleanser that won't make me break out or clog pores...my skin is combination (oily-ish T-zone) and breaks out easily. |

| | | You're going to mke so much fun of me, but I just use Dove in the shower most of the time unless I'm having a breakout, and then I use neutrogena's acne wash for sensitive skin when I do get one.

On the recommendation of my sister-in-law, I've been using Arbonne Clear Advantage Acne Wash. It's definitely helped in the two months since I started. You can only get it through an agent, which you can find on their website--you don't have to order directly through the agent or ever deal with one at all; you can order online, you'll just be given an agent # for the purchase.

| | | I tried Pro-active and was not impressed with the results. I should note that the Arbonne product is 1% Salicylic Acid, although I have sensitive skin and it does not cause drying. |

| | | Proactive - Hands down. I have used it for 2 1/2 years. Also, I have used some Dermalogica products that have done very well. |

| | | I found that Biotherm's facial cleanser and Clean & Clear's products help a lot.
Origins' "Checks & Balances Facial Cleanser" is mediocre. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
