What do you cleanse your face with?

I'm in a rut with cleansing my skin and it's looking a bit lacklustre.

I usually use the 'Ocean Salt' cleanser from lush which seemed to work well and made my skin feel good, but they'd ran out today and I can't get to a lush for a while. I would like to try some others cleansers or other methods, anyway.

I'm willing to spend but if it happens to be cheap, bonus!

Thanks :)

I use Bioderma micellar water, it is fabulous stuff. Removes all make up easily including bobbi brown gel eyeliner. It's very cheap to buy in France, more expensive here as it's imported but worth the extra IMO. In the morning I use kiehls ultimate face wash in the shower followed by the Bioderma to soften, in the evenings just the Bioderma. I'm still on the hunt for the perfect morning cleanser for me, I have tried a multitude of them. I suffer with blackheads and live in a very hard water area. If I go somewhere with soft water my skin clears completely in a couple of days. V frustrating! I have seriously thought about installing a water softener as I find my hair is much better with soft water too.

I use avocado oil and sometimes a bit of honey. It's far better than the much, much more expensive cleansers I used to use on my dry, sensitive skin.

The garnier micellar water I use is the same as the bioderma and is very inexpensive, and available in boots. It's the big bottle with the pink cap. Lasts for ages.

I use it to take off all make up, just have it on two pads and use one on both sides for eyes- one side for one eye, and turn for the other eye.
It lifts off even eyeliner and mascara, with gentle movement, (no scrubbing, or energetic rubbing needed) and I use the other pad for my face.

If I feel the need to wash after that I use Quinoderm facial wash for oily skin, (it's non foaming) and after that Clinique toner.

I use dr organcis moisturiser with royal jelly.

Seems to work, and not very expensive.

I just use micellar water to remove make up then use moisturiser.
