Cleansers or face wash are the first product that go into your skin care. It is essential that you get the right product to suit you skin type, so that it gently cleanses your skin without making it look like the Sahara.

Ingredients for Oily and Acne Prone Skin
Oily skin should look for facewashes and cleansers that gently remove the sebum without being too drying. Try avoiding face wash extensively marketed towards oily skin. Eg: Clean & Clear – it’ll just strip your skin of the oils and make it more oilier in the long run.
Ingredients to look for in your facewash/cleanser includes:
1. Salicylic acid (regulates oil production)
2. Glycolic acid (regulates oil production)
3. Clays (removes oil)
4. Vitamin C (brightens skin)
I am listing the facewashes, which are free of most harmful additives, and are easy and gentle on oily skin in the order of their price.

3. Bioderma Sensibio Gel Moussant
A mild, soap-free, fragrance-free cleansing gel, which contains micellar. Not only does it helps in getting rid of the impurities, but removes the sunscreen effectively too. Creates minimum foam and effectively cleans your skin without making it too dry.

5. Sebamed Clear Face Cleansing Foam
As far as the ingredient list goes, this one is my personal favorite as it contains the minimal number of ingredients. A gentle face wash which does not strip your face off the natural oils – containing lactic acid and Vitamin B5 both of which moisturise your skin.
Note: If your cleanser has active ingredients like salicylic acid, glycolic acid, niacinamide etc, then make sure to use sunscreen as well.
These are the some of the best facewashes and cleansers for oily skin.
I’ll slowly start adding the detailed review of each of these products. Till then.
