Can anyone recommend one for me?
I am 45 with dry skin, now starting to use at home peels, with occasional retinoids.
Need something very mild and low pH
Thanks |

| My favorite is Dr Hauschka cleansing cream - I'm sure many ladies will agree with me!! |

Oh yes I agree with the Dr Hauschka Cleansing Cream,
also look at the Dermalogica Cleansers as they will be gentle on your skin if you are using home peels. |

I am 44 with dry/dehydrated skin and like Avon's cream cleanser, cleans, yet mild and no dry/taunt feeling afterwards. I recently tried one by Neutrogena's sensitive skin line that reminds me of Avon's.  |

I'd suggest the Dr Hauschka cleansing milk/lotion, followed by the cleansing cream for exfoliation and cleaning out the pores. The actual cleansing cream will probably not be enough if you wear makeup - it is not meant to be an actual cleanser.
Another good choice would be the PSF green tea cleanser and the Janson Beckett organic cleansing milk. |

| Cetaphil gentle cleanser. You can use it with or without water. |

In terms of creams or milks my favorites are:
Eve Lom
Green Tea from PSF
Thalgo delicate cleansing milk
Epiderm cleansing silk
All of them rinse off beautifully in water without tugging at the skin and dont leave a film, just soft, clean skin.
For a cleansing bar Iwould say HANDS DOWN the Epiderm Porcelain Clay or the Oatmeal. They are THE most luxurious cleansers in a bar that have no soap in them at all. My 77 year old mum uses the oatmeal, 65 year old mother-in-law the porcelain clay one (that is what I use) and hubby who has a thicker skin uses their tea tree one. |

Have you tried OCM? There is lots about it on EDS. I love it! Good luck!  |

| Makeup Artists Choice soapless bar is really nice. I tried the green tea bar (there's also a shea butter bar) and really liked it. The PH of these bars is supposed to not interfere with glycolic acid peels etc. |

| I'd also like to throw in Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel as I've used it again recently and liked it (and it's soap free ). |
