Clearasil daily wash. Doesn't leave a film and doesn't dry out my face. I've been using it for years.

I've been bouncing around trying to find a good acne wash but haven't been able to find something that works very well.

I used to use tretinoin (prescription version of Retin-A) for acne but it dried my skin out to the point it was peeling (which is the point but it burned like a mother). Guys...what's a good face moisturizer to use?

Use Cetaphil for the face wash, and if your face is particularly dry, use Cetaphil's lotion. It's typically unscented, and is perfect for moisturizing your face.

It worked for me when I used benzoyl peroxide on a daily basis.

I actually use Noxema after shaving (as my aftershave). It's a great moisturizer. Might not work for everyone though because it can be an irritant.

Clean and Clear Foaming Facial Cleanser. I have been using the same stuff since I was a teen.
