"If you have a dull complexion, look for cleansers that help brighten the skin," says Dr. Joshua Zeichner, MD. "This one contains a soy complex that has been shown to lighten dark spots. To use properly, sing the alphabet, then rinse off to be sure it has enough time to set on the skin and do its job."
"This is a gentle cleanser that works great for those with sensitive skin," says Dr. Gary Goldenberg of Goldenberg Dermatology. "I recommend using lukewarm water to wet the skin and then work the cleanser in a clockwise and then counterclockwise direction. Remember to treat skin gently and not scrub."
"This is a gentle cleanser that's great for someone with dry, irritated skin," says board-certified dermatologist Dr. William Kwan. "It contains thermal spring water which is anti-inflammatory. This product also contains Vitamin E, which is an antioxidant and can help with UV exposure."
"This Neutrogena cleanser has glycerin inside which is ultra hydrating," says board-certified dermatologist Dr. Debra Jaliman. "Use it with cotton pledgets. Don't use fingers to wash face because there is usually bacteria under nails."
"The Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser has been a longtime staple in my practice recommendations as the formulation is gentle enough for the most sensitive skin types, yet effective in removing impurities without irritating the skin," says Yoon-Soo Cindy Bae, MD, Clinical Assistant Professor at NYU Dermatology.
