The Best Way to Wash Your Face, According to Your Skin Type

Oily skin

Those with oily skin may need a bit more than a bar of soap to neutralize that shine; the bright side is that you have more room to experiment with tools and exfoliants. Debra Jaliman, MD, board-certified dermatologist in New York City and author of Skin Rules, is a big fan of the Clarisonic Sonic Facial Cleansing Brush System. “The sonic technology helps to gently remove dead skin from pores, so they don’t get clogged,” she says. Using it once a day is sufficient. If you don’t want to invest in the brush, a cotton pad or baby washcloth are good substitutes. (Be sure to use a clean washcloth every time you wash your face.) A face wash like Burt’s Bees Soap Bark and Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream is strong enough to remove oil, makeup, and grime, but with chamomile and aloe, it won’t strip your skin of moisture. Follow with an oil-free, mattifying moisturizer day and night and be sure to use sunscreen lotion in the morning. Mederma’s Facial Cleanser is a great option as well. It’s moisturizing qualities help your skin realize it does not need to produce so much oil. Don’t miss these beauty secrets for women with oily skin.
