| Mens face wash,
Looking for a a face wash for men right now i have biotherm face wash/exfoilater and bio therm aqua power moisturizer. I want to try something new, is Vichy face products better or neutrogena products better? neutrogena is pretty cheap in price compared to biotherm and vichy products. $10 vs $20-30. Only interested in those 3 brands because thats all they have at shoppers.

Believe it or not, Gatsby has good face washes... Black Mega Scrub and Deep Mud Foam is a good combo to use during the week. Should be about $8 each online, but you probably don't want to shop there...

Cetaphil is for people with severe skin conditions.. rosacea, wounds, severe acne, etc. I don't know why you would use it under normal circumstances.

^the reason its good for people w/ problem skin is because its so gentle on the skin unlike most soaps. i know tons of people who use it as a daily facewash that dont have any problems w/ their skin
-"Cetaphil is so gentle, it is recommended by dermatologists for everyday skin, or even as part of a regime for skin in need of medication."
its not meant to treat skin conditions, its just safe to use for ppl who have them.  | |

i use laniege from korea. i use to use biotherm but wanted to try something new
believe it or not, vichy is very similar to biotherm as far as how well i works, they are owned by loreal group,
personal opinion i think vichy is better than neutrogena
get some samples and try em all out  | |

cetaphil is used for anyone... it's mild enough to be used on people even with those skin conditions named above...
whereas other cleansers may irritate the skin with the fragrances or strong cleansers, etc...
i highly recommend things like spectro jel and cetaphil (both also available at shoppers), because really they will do the job, and not harm your skin and also not be as overpriced as that vichy or biotherm etc stuff

I use spectro gel, it is even less harsh than Cetaphil.

I agree that spectro is more harsh than cetaphil
I've tried
zirh, anthony logistics, menscience, biotherm, vichy, as well. I think shoppers carries some of those brands, depends which shoppers you go to.
zirh is the most harsh of all those.
The menscience isn't working that well for me, so if anyone wants to buy it cheap, PM me. Ive used less than 25% of it.
