On Beauty: Facial Cleanser Wars!



It is definitely difficult to keep your face clean and pretty throughout the summer months.  But your face is your first introduction to the world.  Therefore, it is important to keep it clean, smooth and pretty as you can.  The question today is, which cleanser is the best for you.

I have used both Olay and Proactiv at different stages of my life.  During the awkward, teenage years and then now in my thirties, when breakouts are not so frequent.  But ladies, if you have used one or the other, which one worked best for you?
VS 

And you've used neither, what face products have you tried and works best for you?

I thankfully have not had too many acne problems. My minor problem has been break outs around my chin and mouth - all year long. I normally used some regular drug store brands like "Clean and Clear" and it kept my skin majority clear except for the usual break outs around my chin and mouth. Well I started using Clinique Acne Control - the 3 step system: Cleanser, Toner, and Moisturizer about 2 weeks and all of my break outs are gone. I definitely recommend it.

I swear by L'Oreal facial wash and gel-creme moisturiser. It works magic for my face.

i used pro-activ in the past but it was too harsh on my skin ... i use Aveeno now and i love it.

I use the SPA collection from beauticontrol. I love these products! and of course everyone needs a face buffer. They are a must have! I couldn't live without mine!

Proactive worked for me for the first two weeks and then the results tapered off. Anything with salisylic acid in it is good b/c it helps slough off skin cells.
