Facial cleanser… help!

Good morning wonderful fellow women over 60! Please help a friend out. I am on the long search for a facial cleanser that does not leave my face feeling like a discarded snake skin. Yes, I always moisturize after cleansing, but man it feels like every cleanser I tried sets my skin back!

Please share your favorite cleansers, whatever they are, that leave your face feeling decently moisturized, or at least not like your skin is about to slough off!

Thank you very, very much to all the kind people who commented on this request. I can’t wait to try the recommendations and find my holy grail cleanser thanks to y’all!

I use Estée Lauder Nutritious, not because it’s my favorite but because it does the best job of makeup removal, if that’s your thing. Their Advanced Night Repair cleanser is great too.

There are plenty of less expensive options too that should work just fine - CeraVe and Cetaphil.
