Which cheaper cleanser?

You were also helpful when I needed to buy a foundation this week well, I need your help again.

My Cinique wash off cleanser has run out (after 15 months!). Tomorrow I need to go to Superdrug to get one to use until I get paid. I have dry skin. Im not sure if I want a wash off one or not. I need something to take my makeup off with but, I need to use it to get washed with on a morning as well!!

Luckily, I still have my Chanel moisturiser left. I will weep when that goes.

I'd try the oil cleansing method, which is v cheap. I started using this about a year ago when I got fed up with the p&p charges for Liz Earle. If you google "oil cleansing method", there are several sites explaining how to do it. I use extra virgin olive oil with a few drops of rosemary and eucalyptus essential oil.

I have dry skin too.. I love Micellar cleansers. Favourite is the Vichy one, (Boots have it) but most of the French brands do them. They look like water, but clean off makeup brilliantly! I got a huge bottle for €15. Nuxe do a Micellar foam which I use when I fancy washing my face.

Superdrug sell a Hot Cloth Cleanser in the Vitamin E range. It's £5.99 and is a budget version of Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish. It's pretty good.

I'm not sure about superdrug. I'm in Ireland and lots of chemists stock Vichy, Avene or La Roche Posay. They all do Micellar cleansers

Use Olay sensitive washcloths

I have dry skin and use Clarins shea butter foaming cleanser when on offer.

Inbetween times I use Olay Total Effects or Regenerist cleanser (when on offer in Boots:) I find them gentle enough.
