Conditioning Cleanser What is a good facial wash/cleanser?
My skin is mostly clear except for the blackheads I get on my nose and some blemishes on my forehead, so my acne is mostly pore-clogged related. I have sensitive, light colored skin. I would prefer something that won't dry out my skin (because oil really isn't my problem). What brand of face wash or skin care products would best suit my conditions?
I would recommend a line called Skintelligence, you can located it from this site http://lcbeauty.unfranchise.com by typing Skintelligence on the search bar.
The reason I recommend this line is because:
•Completely water soluble, won't clog pores
•Very gentle and hypo-allergenic, which will not cause breakout yet effective enough to give your face a good cleanse
• You can remove makeup with this cleanser too!
•Contain antioxidants and herbs to protect skin from free radicals. Free radicals (UV rays, pollution, etc.) are skin No 1 killers, lead to wrinkle, fine lines, age spot, etc. So be sure to give yourself enough protection
•Contain ingredients that carry 5 times its weight in water so it can “super-hydrate” skin cells.
•Big size, very economical to use and affordable
•Work with skin’s pH level so our skin can utilize its ingredients much better and absorb much better
•Good for all skin type including sensitive skin
Also, if blackhead is your concern, you should consider using a AHA treatment. AHA works by penetrating the upper, dead layers of the epidermis, thus help exfoliate dead skin cells and dissolve blackheads.
I recommend Alpha 24 because its AHA ingredients are all naturally occurring substances. It contains 9.6% AHAs, tough on exfoliation yet gentle enough for sensitive skin. It also contains SPF 8 sunscreen for UVA & UVB protection.

Things You Could Use for a Homemade Anti-Bacterial Skin Cleanser
Acne could be an expensive condition. There are a variety of antibacterial products being sold in the market, which claim to relieve your acne condition while cleaning your pores. These are products that you have to use regularly for best results. However, if your skin ends up being sensitive to the cheaper cleansers, you may find yourself patronizing the more expensive brands, and spending more than you bargained for. Depending on the ingredients, a homemade anti-bacterial skin cleanser may help you save money. But first you have to determine if the ingredients actually fall within your budget, or if it would be cheaper to just buy commercially available cleansers over the counter.
Then again, savings may not be your priority, when you're making a homemade anti-bacterial skin cleanser. If you can make your own cleanser, you can gauge the amount of ingredients that is best to include in the formula. You won't have to be stuck with a premade solution which leaves a foul smell or irritates your skin.
Essential oils are a good base for many homemade skin products. You can mix essential oils together to create the perfect scent, or the perfect consistency. Tea tree oil, for example, is quite popular for use in acne medications. So is rosemary. Oils with strong scents may not be good to use on the face, so diluting them in water may be a good way to use them. You could try seeking the aid of an aromatherapist if you wish to learn how to mix essential oil-based homemade cleansers.
Besides essential oils, you could also have herbs in your solution. Sandalwood, bergamont and clove have antibacterial properties that may be useful in creating a homemade concoction. Make sure that the herbs are finely ground before you attempt to use them in your mix - this will ensure that the mixture is smooth and non-irritating, and potent besides.
Vitamin C has some proven antibacterial properties that may work against acne. Lime or lemon juice, in particular, have been a popular ingredient in traditional homemade acne remedies. Commercially available juice with sugar - in other words, the processed kind - may not be as effective as freshly squeezed and unadulterated juice. Make it a point to buy fresh lemons or limes, then cut and squeeze them yourself.
Honey is also a common implement for homemade remedies. Warm honey, in particular, is known to remove skin blemishes when used on the face regularly. You should make sure it isn't too hot before you apply it onto your face, of course! Fresh milk has also been said to be good as a facial cleanser, but milk that has not been pasteurized may contain some impurities that could harm your skin. On the other hand, commercially available processed milk may contain sugar and other additives that could be equally harmful!
Aloe vera is another ingredient that would no doubt be useful for adding into a homemade anti-bacterial skin cleanser. It has soothing and cleansing properties that are paralleled by few other herbs. If you can grow your own herbs and aloe vera in your backyard, you could definitely save on the cost of buying premade solutions.
