Green Clean Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm, £32 | Farmacy Beauty
Best For: Oily Skin
Using locally grown ingredients, Farmacy creates natural, gentle skincare – and this fresh, scented cleansing balm is one of its bestsellers. Infused with lime, bergamot and orange essential oils, it never feels thick or sticky on the skin, and transforms into a creamy lather on contact with water. Watch as it sweeps away make-up, dirt and excess oiliness, leaving your skin texture feeling smooth and supple.

Superfood Cleanser, £31 | Youth To The People
Best For: Sensitive Skin
Cold-pressed antioxidants give this clean, herb-fragranced cleanser its refreshing feel. A superfood blend of kale, spinach, green tea, and vitamins C, E and K, it calms, cools and plumps the skin, while anti-inflammatory ingredients work on protecting it from external aggressors and evening out the complexion.

Reset Cleanser, £50 | Stella By Stella McCartney
Best For: Balancing PH Levels
This two-in-one cleanser melts away make-up and dirt before deeply cleansing and removing impurities. It’s also great at maintaining a healthy pH level to ensure skin remains healthy, glowing and free from any irritation. Sunflower oil, marine spring water and organic birch sap are just two of the hero ingredients which will leave your complexion fresh and glowing.

Effaclar Cleansing Gel, £16 | La Roche-Posay
Best For: Purifying
La Roche-Posay is a cult favourite for a reason. The dermatologist-approved French pharmacy brand offers a wide range of everyday products, and this one is worth a try if you’re after something gentle yet thorough. Soothing irritation with its thermal spring water-infused formula – which is also hypoallergenic – it reduces sebum production to combat spots too.

Face Calm And Restore Cleanser, £5.59 | Aveeno
Best For: A Budget-Friendly Option
Oat is the core antioxidant-rich ingredient in this cleanser that promises to maintain the skin’s moisture barrier over time. We recommend using it after a dedicated make-up remover for best results. Although it’s great at calming skin and making sure its moisture levels are topped up, it won’t get rid of stubborn waterproof mascara or eyeliner.
