Cleansers for Combination Skin

If you have both oily and dry skin, chances are you have what's known as combination skin. And it's not always the easiest to find skincare products for, because you're always trying to strike a balance between the two. Luckily, that's where our cleansers for combination skin come in. Our selection of cleansers for cominbation skin from leading brands means you can be on your way to a clearer, smoother and more hydrated complexion once more.

Which cleanser is best for combination skin?

First you'll need to decide if your skin is more on the oily or dry side, that'll help you to know what ingredients to look out for. Those with oilier skin can turn to oil-regulating and mattifying ingredients such as salicylic acid, just be sure they've got some hydrating ingredients to moisturise your skin too. The VICHY Normaderm Deep Cleansing Purifying Gel is perfect for this.

Those on the drier end of the scale will love lightweight cream cleansers (see CeraVe's Hydrating Cleanser with Hyaluronic Acid for Normal to Dry Skin) that gently cleanse away the day, leaving your skin soft and supple.

How to cleanse combination skin?

Cleanse your face morning and evening to buff away dirt and oil that builds up overnight and throughout the day. Choose a cleanser that's gentle enough for twice daily use. And if you wear makeup, complete a double cleanse in the evenings with a cleansing balm or oil to ensure your skin is completely free from product and debris.
