One of the biggest skincare revelations for me has been that my oily and acne-prone skin loves a gentle cleanser! It is often believed that cleansers for oily skin should be more aggressive and should leave the skin completely matte. However, what works best for me is a face wash that is gentle but contains anti-acne ingredients as well. So, without further ado, here is my list of best face washes for oily, acne-prone skin in India!
1. Suganda Centella Green Tea Face Wash
The Suganda Centella Green Tea Face Wash is a very gentle face wash that soothes acne and leaves the skin feeling supple and glowy. This face wash is extremely mild and is therefore perfect for even winters. The brand offers both scented and non-scented variants of the face wash wherein the scented variant contains a few essential oils whereas the non-scented version is free of essential oils.
