Best face cleanser for oily and acne prone skin? Please help!

I've have always had very oily skin but never any issues with acne until recently. I feel like I can get a handle on them! Any and all advice is greatly appreciated!

RE: Best face cleanser for oily and acne prone skin? Please help!

Hi! I have super oily skin without the acne or large pores. I reallllly thank my Clarisonic for that along with my Purity cleanser. I bought my Clarisonic with the radiance brush head about 6 months ago and have been thanking the skin Gods since!!! Yes it's a splurge but oh soooo worth it. It has made such a dramatic difference with the oily skin factor! That along with my Sunday Riley Martian toner and Luna Oil 😉But the Clarisonic is the one purchase I have made that has proven its worth to me.

I have sensitive acne prone combination skin and my favourite for the past 10 years have always been Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing Gel. I feel odd of place recommending something not sold in Sephora but these are my honest words lol. This cleanser keeps my oil and acne in check and removes makeup well. My bestie swears by it and my hubby now refuses to use anything but that. I love trying new things but I always come back to it. Boscia Detoxifying Black Cleanser is really good too and has a nice warming sensation when you first massage the product on your skin. If you want something expensive and innovative and super nice then Tatcha Rice Enzyme Powder. Fresh soya cleanser is more suited for dry skin people but it's very gentle and has skin calming ingredients, but don't expect it to remove your makeup completely lol.

Hi, I have oily skin and suffer from the occasional acne pop up as well. Kate Somerville carries some pretty great cleansers for anti-acne. The Kate Somerville's EradiKate Daily Cleanser Acne Treatment is highly effective for ridding acne. However, be careful getting the cleanser in your eyes because it will sting. Derma Doctor also makes really amazing products such as the Ain’t Misbehavin' Medicated AHA/BHA Acne Cleanser.

If you're looking for something more gentle, try Sunday Riley's Ceramic Slip Clay Cleanser. I would grab samples first 🙂
