Look No Further: These Are the Best Face Washes For Every Skin Type

If you have dry skin that veers on the sensitive side, try the Simple Kind to Skin Hydrating Cleansing Oil ($11). It has all the good-for-you oils you want — that moisturize the skin and break down all traces of makeup — without anything of the ingredients you don't.

Flakes are no match for the balm-meets-oil Lumity 4-in-1 Cleanse ($72). The formula transforms with the touch of water, whisking away all traces of makeup while the jojoba and camellia seed oils begin to work their moisturizing magic.

Acne treatments are notoriously harsh, which is why sticking with a gentle cleanser is key. This CeraVe Renewing Gentle SA Cleanser ($14) is mild but also sprinkles in a low dose of salicylic acid that dissolves a day's worth of grime without stripping the skin.

You can consider maskne a thing of the past with the The Inkey List Salicylic Acid Cleanser ($10). Packed with 2 percent of the pore-clearing salicylic acid, plus oil-controlling zinc, it gently dissolves any dirt and grime while treating breakouts in the process.

Not to sound hyberbolic, but we'd give the Perricone MD Gentle Cleanser ($38) 10 out of five stars if we could — it's that good. The lightweight gel formula is loaded with olive fruit and olive leaf extracts that simultaneously hydrate and cleanse the skin, but without irritating it, and builds up the just-right amount of suds that works across a spectrum of skin types.

The Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser ($6) has long been considered one of the best drugstore face washes, and for good reason: almost anyone can use it without irritation.

Not only does the Ole Henriksen Find Your Balance Oil Control Cleanser ($26) smell like minty heaven in a tube, but it's also loaded with glycolic and lactic acids and a blend of antiseptic botanicals that keep your forehead shine-free.

Yes, we love how the dual-purpose (and hypoallergenic!) silicone brush is already built into of the Wow Skin Science Apple Cider Vinegar Face Wash ($15) — it'll never feel easier to exfoliate away dead skin cells and oil buildup, that we can promise you — but we also dig how the formula is gentle, despite how harsh ACV can sometimes be. Instead, this blend balances the active ingredient with soothing aloe vera and hydrating vitamin E, keeping shine in check without causing any irritation.

With combo skin, you need to get a cleanser that does both: hydrate . . . without feeling heavy. The hyaluronic-acid-infused Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hydrating Gel Cleanser ($7) is exactly that: a lightweight gel formula that makes your skin feel silky soft.

Soap-free, silicone-free, paraben-free, and formulated with its signature thermal spring water, the Avene Eau Thermale Cleansing Foam ($20) is about as no-frills — and effective — as it gets.

Yes, the Fresh Mini Soy Makeup Removing Face Wash ($15) is a gel, but this formula is also somehow creamy and moisturizing. The second it mixes with water, it forms a buttery soap that grips onto makeup and oil fast — all it takes is a few splashes of water to rinse away everything.

You can't go wrong with the Kiehl's Since 1851 Ultra Facial Cleanser ($20), which leaves your skin feeling like it just got a hug of hydration (you can thank the hydrating avocado oil and apricot kernels for that).
