It's a moisturizer that doesn't make your face feel like it weighs 30 pounds more since it's oil-free.

Biore Charcoal Face Cleanser

Your first thought wouldn't be to think that anything related to charcoal would be useful in cleaning your face and this product would surprise you because of it. The reason it uses charcoal is for the carbon in it. The carbon acts like a magnet to better help remove all of the dirt and impurities clogging up your pores. This cleanser is excellent for those with oily skin and will leave you feeling baby-butt smooth.

It comes out of the bottle as a black and grainy gel but turns into foam during use to help you better wash it off. It gives you a relaxing and cooling feeling throughout the cleaning process. The bottle comes in a 6.77-fluid ounce size and costs around 6 to 8 dollars.

Yes to Ultra Hydrating Creme Cleaner

This cleanser is one that smells delicious, and I mean that literally–it smells good enough to eat, which makes it delightful. It gives off this scent because of the product's use of coconut oil. The coconut gives it more usefully properties other than smelling good. Oil from coconuts is naturally antifungal and antibacterial, making it fantastic when it comes to cleaning your skin.

On top of that, the oil penetrates deep and leaves a lasting feeling of hydration. A notable mention is that while the product does use coconut oil, it won't leave your skin feeling super oily, but it also won't make any less oily. The average price for this is about 10 dollars, and it comes in a 4-fluid ounce squirt bottle.

Neutrogena: Oil-Free Moisture Sensitive Skin Ultra-Gentle Facial Moisturizer

This a water-based moisturizer. It leaves the pump as a gel, and it is very consistent in the way it feels, not being too thick or thin. The texture makes it feel like you are wearing nothing at all after you've massaged it into your skin.

To be clear, it penetrates your skin rather quickly, so you don't have to massage for long. Its moisturizing effects should last you throughout the day, and leave you feeling smooth. You'll mainly find it as 4-fluid ounce bottle around 10 dollars.

POND'S Cold Cream Cleanser

POND's Cold Cream Cleanser is a classic that has been around for about a century. The cleanser is good at both removing makeup and leaving your skin moisturized and smooth. Unlike the previous product, this will be one that you will need to massage into your skin somewhat throughout so that it can break up any makeup you happen to be wearing.

Once you have gotten a nice layer over your face, you can remove both the cleaner and your makeup (along with any dirt or other debris) with a damp cloth. It comes in 3.5 fluid ounces and surprisingly only cost a little over 5 dollars.
