No. 21: Philosophy Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleanser, $20

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 9.1*
Best for: All skin types
Why it's great: "The size of a dime is all you need to dispense from the bottle in order to remove every trace of makeup, dirt and the most stubborn, sometimes hard-to-remove, waterproof eye makeup. This cleanser has never failed me. It always leaves my skin feeling totally clean, fresh and not dry or stripped in any way. I try different cleansers, well, because I am a beauty blogger, but always go back to Purity. The scent is very light, and I truly look forward to using this at the end of the day to help my skin feel totally refreshed and totally clean." -- MakeupSearcher, TotalBeauty.com member

Because of this article I had to buy the DHC Cleansing Oil. I must say it is a good cleanser. Wasn't sure at first with it being an oil, but it does a fantastic job. It takes all kinds of makeup off including that Mally waterproof mascara that just doesn't want to leave!

Really good product round-up; too bad so many of them are expensive!

I have the Estee Lauder Perfectly Clean Splash Away Foaming Cleanser - it's amazing.

The best face wash is the TwinLuxe Renewing Face Wash & Scrub. I use this face wash daily and the scrub is very gentle on my skin. I highly recommend!

I agree that the Origins Frothy (checks and balances) is the best cleanser for oily/combination skin I have tried. I am curious about the oil-type cleanser - fighting oil with oil sounds intriguing. Thanks for the article-good one!

I like to use Dove beauty bars as a facial cleanser, and Aveeno is also good.
