Best Cleanser/Makeup Remover for acne prone skin?
Hey guys, my face is pretty normal (not too dry, not too oily) all over except on my t-zone, specially my nose and in between my eyebrows, where i get acne :(. I wear makeup and was wondering if i you could recommend a cleanser that was good for this type of skin? Also, should i buy separate make up remover wipes, or just use the cleanser? should i also get a spot treatment for my acne? i heard that you can crush up some aspirin and spot treat.
please recommend me some brands :)
i would appreciate it sooo much! thanks guys :)

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser – Its specially formulated for sensitive skin so it works wonders on all skin types and can be used daily without worry. Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser will not dry out the skin and actually leaves the skin feeling soft and clean at the same time. It cleanses well, rinses off perfectly and isn’t irritating. It does slightly (very slightly) dry my skin out but not that tight dry feeling you get with some other cleansers. I have also not developed any clogged pores or breakouts while using this, and I’m *very* prone to clogged pores!
Cetaphil also has a moisturizing cream that I think is even better than the cleanser! It’s not greasy, absorbs quickly and leaves no shine. There’s no fragrance to irritate my sensitive skin or nose. My dermatologist also told me that it was developed by a drug company that wanted a product that doesn’t interact with their prescriptions, so it’s chemically inert.
Almay Oil-Free Makeup Remover Towelettes – Oil-Free Makeup Remover Towelettes won’t clog pores, yet are strong enough to remove even long-wearing and waterproof formulas. The best part is they leave no residue and require no rinsing or rewashing. Many enjoy the refreshing scent, a botanical blend of aloe, cucumber and green tea. Users with very sensitive eyes may want to be careful as some users have found them to cause stinging and irritation.

i heard freshly squeezed lemon juice and boiling water does the trick but not personally experienced it myself to try it. The only tip i could give is to make sure you wash your make up off at night with soap and water and it will probably reduce the chance of it spreading, i tend to get very spotty when i forget to wash make up off, but it may be different with acne.

Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser (FOR NORMAL TO OILY SKIN) <—If you’re going to get it, make sure you get that one and not the (all skin types one). I have always had a problem with my skin and I’ve tried EVERYTHING. I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on acne medications, and since I have been using this my skin is clearing up so good! It’s a little expensive though like $12-$15 just depends where you go. You can get it almost everywhere..Walmart, Target, Walgreens Etc..

Neutrogena SkinID works amazing, my 15 y/o niece had horrible acne until she tried that. Now her skin is gorgeous and clear.

I love Niveas products, since they’re affordable and for most of the products you can choose which skin type you are. I use
I use two make up removers . One for the eye area and one for the rest of the face.
my eye make up remover is Nivea Visage extra gentle Eye make up remover. (it’s a lotion)
and my other one for the rest of the face is the cleanser Nivea refreshing MILK & toner 2 in 1 (for normal to mixed skin and it’s a cream) I use a cotton ball to remove my make up.
Also don’t forget to moistrize your face every day before applying make up.
You need an oil-free moistrizer so I would recommend the one I’m using , Nivea Visage Young control shine! .
I hope this helped. I’m not advertising nivea right now :P but their products are the only ones who really work.
