You can tell them what your needs are and they can/will help you find what you need. &nbsp;Also they will often give samples or some will sell smaller bars to allow you to try before a big commitment. &nbsp;&nbsp;<div>I switch my body wash/Dove soap to an olive oil based bar from a local maker a couple of years ago and haven’t looked back. &nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-a-cruelty-free-gentle-face-cleanser#post-2349222 Tue, 09 Jan 2024 03:09:16 +0000 LaPed 2349222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! And re: bars, you might want to take a look at Drunk Elephant. Their Pekee and Juju Bars are the only solid facial cleansers that have come close to working for me (still a bit drying IME). Again, I think they got bought by a bigger company a few years ago. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-a-cruelty-free-gentle-face-cleanser#post-2349202 Tue, 09 Jan 2024 00:47:39 +0000 April 2349202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all!&nbsp; Some good options here, as well as good caveats.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-a-cruelty-free-gentle-face-cleanser#post-2349195 Tue, 09 Jan 2024 00:08:10 +0000 SarahD8 2349195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ethique makes bar cleansers but when I tried them a couple years ago I found them too soap-like.</p> <p>I have been using Burt's Bees sensitive skin cream cleanser for quite a while -- gentle, reliable, non-foaming, cruelty free (same caveats that LaPed notes with paula's choice). Not the packaging that you want, though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-a-cruelty-free-gentle-face-cleanser#post-2349182 Mon, 08 Jan 2024 22:18:23 +0000 cat2 2349182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like REN Evercalm Gentle Cleanser. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-a-cruelty-free-gentle-face-cleanser#post-2349179 Mon, 08 Jan 2024 21:43:02 +0000 LaPed 2349179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Paula’s Choice Calm Cleanser is my go-to. Very similar to Cetaphil — creamy and non-foaming. The whole Calm line is great — has done wonders for me over the past couple of years, mitigating “maskne” without stripping my skin of moisture.</p> <p><a href="https://www.paulaschoice.com/calm-ultra-gentle-cleanser/" rel="nofollow">https://www.paulaschoice.com/c.....-cleanser/</a></p> <p>The brand itself is Leaping Bunny certified, but is also owned by Unilever now… a compromise, but as a person with sensitive skin I find I have to do a lot of that. Still looking for an alternative to Aveeno, to no avail. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-a-cruelty-free-gentle-face-cleanser#post-2349168 Mon, 08 Jan 2024 21:00:25 +0000 Angie 2349168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vanicream?
