What cleaner do you use on your face?

So I didn't get the memo and no one ever told me you're not supposed to use soap on your face. So for my entire life, when in the shower, I'd scrub my face with soap just like everything else.

Well, today, I finally found out you're not supposed to do that. So, what are guys supposed to use instead?

Yeah, that's just so they can sell you expensive soap in a tube. Unless you have super dry skin regular soap isn't going to hurt your face.
 
In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

In all seriousness, just water. Anything else, even stuff for sensitive skin such as Cetaphil, seems to cause me to break out.
 
I've never had a problem with zits or acne or anything, so I just rinse my face with water and call it good. It never feels dry or oily at all.

I love having great skin.
 
... whatever shampoo runs down over my face. A lot of the time, after lathering my hair, if it isn't running over my forehead into my eyes, I'll wipe some of the lather onto my face to shave. (Otherwise I just use water to shave.)
