Face Cleansers

[Dogz]

Today I got a new kind of face cleanser. It is called Noxzema. Have you tried it? Did you dis/like it?

If you have never tried this kind, but do use one, what kind is it?

[Desert Arabian]

Noxema doesn't do anything for me. I am on prescription face cleaners for my acne. I use Triaz, Differen Cream, and Benzaclin (sp). They work great.

It will probably work for you, because you most likely have different skin makeup than me.

Like YLL, noxema was not meant for me. I don't care for the residue it leaves behind...which got transferred to my contacts, which made seeing kinda tough.

I like this gel/cream stuff. I can't remember the name, however.

I love new products! Hair, face, skin, etc. It always makes me feel good (though looking good is another issue).

[Tonya]

My dermatologist told me that Noxema isn't good for the skin, I don't remember why. I use Cetaphil, which is really gentle. I have horrible skin, so I'd always used harsh cleansers with chemicals in them, expecting for my skin to clear up...Suprisingly, when I switched to a gentler cleanser, my skin has gotten better.

I am with Tonya. I use Cetaphil as well. My skin SUCKS. It has been itching lately again. I have ekzema. And I give up going to the dermatologist, cuz he ALWAYS give me the same answer: the weather is changing and your skin is telling you something. Boo hoo. It's sad that it's something one can manage but not cured. Sad. Oh to top it off, I have big zits lately. HELP!!!!

we use noxzema too. I like it. I don't use it everyday, bacause it somtimes make my skin itch.

[Miss Meow]

I'm using Cetaphil at the moment. Like Tonya, I was using harsher products to really clean my face, but my skin reacted in a bad way.

I used to use Noxema and it was fine. My friend Missy swears by it.

I have VERY dry skin so I use Nivea something or other for dry skin. It's pink with darker pink scrubbing beads in it I REALLY like Nivea products.

I use Origins. They have this amazing (!!!!!!!!) cleanser called Checks and Balances. It's wonderful, and, you only have to use an amount about the size of an eraser on a pencil, and, it still covers your whole face.

I used Noxema as a teen and it worked well for me. As an adult, my skin type is dry...

Good luck to you.

It seems that I saw this at the store. I thought it was neat looking and I wanted it. My mom told me to get the Noxzema because she knows people who swear by it. Exactly what you said.

ME TOO!!! I *love* Nivea! My skin isn't exactly dry though........but it used to be.

My skin is sensitive and *itches* with most products, so I really don't use *facial cleaners* that much. Nivea is ok with my skin type, but I mainly just use soap and water and use a moisturizing lotion like Nivea or Ponds every night. I also use Vitamin E Oil on my skin, which is excellent. It makes your skin beautiful if you use it on daily basis. Its a very thick oil that comes in a small plastic bottle.........its available at most health stores. I don't think you should use it for oily skin, but its great for dry or normal skin.

I use Noxema too. It works *GREAT* for me. It totally gets rid of the acne; whether it's started to come in, or not. I use it every night, and my face is as clean as ever.

[rizzy]

I use clearasil (sp?) Its not expensive but it works for me. I guess the cream is good for getting rid of zits, the cleasning pads help prevent and treat acne. I see ads for Oxy all the time. I havent heard of Nivia or Noxema and wouldnt be the #1 person to ask, but its cheap and works for me. My friends says to switch every so often so your skin doesnt get used to one brand and wont work for other stuff. Idk.

Good Luck!
