The Drugstore Cleanser That Whipped My Skin Into Shape For most of my life, I pummeled my acne-prone face with salicylic acid- and benzoyl peroxide-loaded cleansers. But at some point, I realized my arsenal of blemish-vanquishing washes was drying out my skin so much that it was actually prompting it to overcompensate with more pimple-producing oils. And so began my quest for a gentle, hydrating cleanser that would get the job done, but wouldn't cause breakouts.
Enter Olay Total Effects 7 Revitalizing Foaming Cleanser, $8.99. This face-saver effectively removes my makeup and staves off breakouts while leaving my skin feeling silky and soft, looking smooth and bright and even smelling great.
Plus, all of these nourishing properties fight signs of aging, which is music to my ears after recently celebrating a birthday-that-shall-not-be-named. It's the perfect bathroom staple for anyone living in limbo between adult acne and, um, let's just say, a more mature complexion.
Even better: Its measly price tag allows me to zip through bottles at lightning speed without stressing about going broke. --Mary Squillace
