Dealing with Dryness? These Face Washes Are Gamechangers

If you have dry skin, setting your skin up for success starts with your cleanser. Using the wrong face wash can strip your skin of essential oils and moisture, so using a gentle formula with hydrating ingredients is key. From a hyaluronic acid-infused foam to a soothing formula with coconut oil, we’ve rounded up our favorite cleansers for dry skin that will get you through winter and beyond flake-free.

Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Smoothing Milky Wash

This vegan cleanser helps you achieve a bouncy, healthy complexion with watermelon extract and hyaluronic acid. The milky texture and natural watermelon scent solidify it as a winner in our book. 

CeraVe Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Facial Cleanser

CeraVe moisturizers are known for being sensitive skin-friendly and for strengthening the skin's moisture barrier. The brand’s cleansers are no different. Our new fave is this formula which contains ceramides, amino acids and hyaluronic acid and transforms from a nourishing cream to a light foam with water. 

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cleanser

Squalane, vitamin E and apricot oil are just a few of the ingredients in this gentle yet effective cleanser that helps moisturize and leave your complexion feeling supple post-use.

Buttah Cleanser

With coconut oil and lavender extract, this cleanser helps condition and soothe as it washes away impurities. It’s formulated to maintain the skin’s natural pH balance, so your skin won’tfeel dry or uncomfortable after use. 

La Roche-Posay Hydrating Gentle Cleanser 

Start your skin-care routine off right by cleansing with this non-foaming wash from La Roche-Posay. It has a milky texture and a combo of hydrating ingredients like niacinamide, glycerin and ceramides to help prevent any feelings of tightness or discomfort. 

COSRX Triple Hyaluronic Moisturizing Cleanser

Foam cleansers can be moisture-zapping and irritating, but this one contains three types of hyaluronic acid and conditioning vitamin B5 to ensure a smooth and non-sensitizing cleanse.
