Of all the beauty aisles in a store, the face wash one may just be the most

confusing: How do you know which ingredients will work for your skin? What
percentage should they be? Should it be foam? Gel? Both?

When it comes to finding the right cleanser for acne, it's all about looking for
something that will treat your specific skin type. "If you have sensitive skin
presenting lots of redness and acne, for example, you should use a foaming wash
formulated without sulfates," says Manon Pilon, Medical Esthetician and author
of Anti-Aging The Cure: Based on your Body Type. "If you have normal to thick
skin with acne and without the presence of diffused redness, you should use an
anti-acne gel cleanser, and if you have more than three pimples located in one
area, you should use the bacteriostatic cleanser on your entire face (even if your
breakout is only in one location)." Sounds simple enough, but if you're looking for
a few perfect face washes that fit the bill, we've got you. Below, dermatologists to
give us the ultimate list of acne-banishing face cleansers on the market. From
drugstore to K-Beauty, there's one for every concern and price point.
