There are a lot of reasons why washing your face can feel like a chore. In my case, it's because my bathroom sink is approximately one square inch, which means I end up splashing the entire area with water on a nightly basis. It's also because so many face cleansers, while removing grime and makeup from my skin, end up making my face feel tight, itchy, and uncomfortable. Especially in the wintertime, when cold wind and icy weather zaps all the moisture out of our skin, washing your face can oftentimes exacerbate dehydration. That can mean extra discomfort, more dry patches, and dull-looking skin.
But that doesn't have to be the case! There are more face washes than ever that are specifically made to treat dryness while also giving you an effective cleanse. Whether your skin is super sensitive, or super dry, or somewhere in the middle, these brands have created cleansers that work with your skin type, all without stripping it. From the classics to the innovators, the luxe purchases to the drugstore steals, the gentle and the intense, you'll find a cleanser on this list that will make you actually look forward to washing your face.
If you suffer from psoriasis or eczema, you know that finding the right cleanser can be a difficult journey. Not only is this product non-stripping and hydrating, but it contains no irritating ingredients like fragrance.
If you skin suffers from intense dehydration, this product is ideal for cleansing while reintroducing moisture at the same time. With ceramides and hyaluronic acid, this product won't leave the skin feeling tight and itchy, but will still remove sweat and pollution from the skin.
The ingredients in this cleanser are so clean you might be more familiar with them in a salad. With kale, spinach, and green tea, it calms inflamed skin while also thoroughly removing pollution and makeup that can clog pores.
If you need to be careful about which skincare products you use, this cleanser is recommended for very sensitive skin. Over time, it softens the texture of the skin while also effectively removing makeup and sweat.

With nourishing Greek yoghurt, this cleanser is ideal for anyone who's prone to redness and irritation. It's very nourishing for even the most sensitive skin, and helps the skin keep its natural moisture.
Instead of the typical standby of harsh, often drying micellar waters, this product is infused with ceramides and hydrating oils. Applied with a cotton pad, this milky-textured cream removes makeup, dirt, and bacteria. The best part? You don't even need to wash it off!
Is there anything more refreshing and awakening than the smell of citrus in the morning? This grapefruit infused cleanser deeply detoxifies the skin, without dissolving our natural moisture barrier. Plus, it helps invigorate the skin for all-over improvement.
