Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser

The Cetaphil cleanser is fine, and so is the Dear, Klairs toner. I would cut out the Fresh products—they’re expensive for what they actually do. If you suffer from acne or want to exfoliate (the scrub is a physical exfoliant), consider adding a chemical exfoliant.

- Cetaphil Gentle Foaming Cleanser (i love it because it's effective, but it's gentle enough that it doesn't sting like most cleansers do for me. I was using Cerave Hydrating Cleanser before and I felt like it wasn't really washing my skin properly and left a little bit of a film on my face).

Cetaphil daily facial cleanser was too stripping for my skin and ruined my moisture barrier after about a month of using it. I was getting much more acne than usual, and after a bit of testing by taking every other product out of my routine did I find the culprit. Took a while to regain my skin barrier after that.

I usually go for a run right when I wake up. I've been putting on Neutrogena Sport Face Sunscreen SPF 70 before I go out, but when I get back and into the shower, my face burns a little when I wash the sunscreen off with my Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser. Neither the Cetaphil nor the Neutrogena is irritating on its own. Could there be some reaction between them?

PM: Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser, Altreno (a new Tretinoin at .05% that is supposed to be a better formula for less drying, using \~ 1 month with no change), lastly Aquaphor because #sluglife. I also sometimes have to use Desonide (a steroid ointment .05%) around the eyes for these tiny trail breakouts all around the soft skin under my eyes?.
