5 Best face washes for oily skin from Watsons

Keeping your face shine-free not only makes your skin look clear and healthy, but also reduces the chance of breaking out due to clogged pores caused by excess oil production.

Cleansing is the cornerstone of any good skincare routine. If you have oily skin, regular and proper cleansing and choosing the right face wash, needless to say, is the first and the most important step for your regimen.

Below are some of our top facial cleanser picks for oily, acne-prone skin and large pores.

#1 CETAPHIL Oily Skin Cleanser

Cetaphil® Oily Skin Cleanser provides effective cleansing for oily, combination or blemished skin. Its gentle foaming action removes oil, dirt, skin debris and makeup without leaving your skin dry and, importantly, without the tightness that results from soap-based cleansers.

That’s because it is formulated to remove oil without affecting the skin barrier. (Skin acts as a barrier, keeping moisture in so it is important that a cleanser works without compromising the skin barrier.) Cetaphil® Oily Skin Cleanser does not clog pores and can be used in conjunction with acne medication.

#2 NEUTROGENA Oil-Free Acne Wash

Neutrogena® Oil-Free Acne Wash is a cleanser that helps to prevent breakouts in one simple step. It eliminates oil and unclogs pores and blackheads. Effective yet gentle, it won’t over-dry or irritate. Rinse clean, leaving no-pore clogging residue.

#3 HADA LABO AHA + BHA Face Wash

The Double Action Exfoliating Formula can gently remove dead skin cells, deeply cleanse to remove blackheads, purify pores and polish away dull and rough skin.

It also contains:

• Wild Pansy Extract: Helps to fight pimples
• Bentonite Clay: Absorbs oil and removes dirt and impurities

#4 PONDS Oil Control Facial Foam

Say goodbye to oily and dull skin, and hello to clean and refreshed skin that stays oil-free all day. The mineral clay from the formula absorbs oil and dirt without drying out your skin. The skin-mattifying foam is mild and gentle, while promising long-lasting matte skin.
