Wakey, wakey time to wash your face! What’s your favorite cleanser at the moment? Do you use a cleansing oil or a balm? Are you a single or a double cleanser? Do share! Lately, I’m big on a pre-wash with a cleansing oil followed up by a foaming cleanser but I also, switch it up and do a balm followed by a lighter foaming cleanser! I have dry skin which makes cleansing a chore as I always feel tight and dry after a cleanse. But these four cleansers have been my go-to lately to avoid that!

Make Beauty Pre Cleanse Fluid Oil Cleanser $28
I AM IN LOVE with all things Make Beauty Skincare! Their formulas are incredibly gentle on my skin, have no fragrance, and don’t dry me out. Their Lactic Acid + Vitamin C Serum and AHA Exfoliating Liquid are amazing! AMAZING! And so is this oil cleanser! It’s gentle, removes makeup very easily, is fragrance-free, and doesn’t dry me out! It also emulsifies like a champ and rinses clean away!

BYOMA Melting Cleansing Balm $14.99
I picked this up at Target a few weeks ago and I’m loving it. Loving the soft texture and how it goes oily upon contact with my skin! It emulsifies very easily, removes makeup in a snap, and doesn’t dry my skin out! Plus, it’s affordable!

Paula’s Choice Omega + Complex Cleansing Balm $29
If I had to choose one cleansing balm to live out the rest of my days with it would be Omega + Complex Cleansing Balm! This is the best of the best. I love this stuff. First off, the packaging is brilliant. A cleansing balm in a squeeze tube? OMG YES please! Mess-free, easy to squeeze out, and the texture is still soft and sorbet-like. Doesn’t dry my skin out, removes makeup easily, no fragrance…need I rave anymore?

The INKEY List Fulvic Acid Brightening Cleanser $5.99-$11.99
Whoever thought it was a good idea to put Fluvic Acid in a cleanser needs an award. Fulvic Acid is a great way to brighten skin but also, works to gently exfoliate. This cleanser does both. It’s a lightweight, low-lather cleansing gel that makes for a perfect companion as a second cleanser. It cleanses, brightens, and gently exfoliates skin which results in a brighter, smoother complexion upon use. I’m convinced this stuff eases my dullness! It makes my skin look so smooth and bright after my cleanse!

What are your fav cleansings at the moment?

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    I’ve been loving the Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Cleansing Oil and the *deep inhale* Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel! LOL! Both are fragrance free and don’t irritate my sensitive skin.
