FAN MAIL FRIDAYS: 5 Best Non-Drying Facial Cleansers

Oh hey, it's Friday once again and it's time for FMF! Our query for today is from Jessy. :)

Dear Ms. Martha,

 

Commuting is unavoidable for me (whether it's going to school or taking the Ikot and Toki jeeps around UP--hehe I know you can relate!), and every time I arrive in school, I immediately want to wash my face because ugh pollution is awful. But I have very dry skin and I can't seem to find a good, affordable, everyday facial cleanser for my skin type. If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to ask your recommendation for a good moisturizing facial cleanser.

 

Thank you for your time! 

 

Your avid follower,

Jessy

Hey Jessy!

Yes! I do know you as I see your comments on my blog posts (thank you!).

I see you're an Iska too. I totally feel you on that Toki-Ikot part-I love UP, but all that commuting from one building to the other really made my face greasy and dirty as hell, just like you. :p

As for your question, always go for a facial cleanser with a creamy consistency or anything with oil extracts in it as long as you don't have sensitive or hyper reactive skin-these products will leave a moisturizing mantle on your skin after rinsing so it won't feel tight, dry, and irritated.

Now for my recommendations, here they are:

Philosophy Purity Made Simple 3-in-1 Cleanser For Face and Eyes

- Cooling and moisturizing, this favorite of mine acts as a makeup remover and facial cleanser. It's also low foam so no need to worry about excessive suds drying out your skin even further.

Céleteque Hydration Facial Wash

- Did you mention affordable? Look no further and grab Céleteque's Hydration Facial Wash. It's in a non-clogging gel form and it really leaves skin bouncy and fresh!

See the other three after the cut!

Canmake Brightening Facial Wash

- This frothy facial foam is so pleasing to use and leaves your skin very clean, but soft.

Cetaphil

- If you've got extra sensitive skin, Cetaphil should be your go-to! This cult favorite works on just about any skin type and keeps the epidermal surface hydrated.

Physiogel

- On colder months or if your skin needs extra moisture, Physiogel would be a great choice because it's specifically formulated for dry, easily irritated skin.

Hope this list helps! :)
