looking for new cleanser
Hi, I’m currently using LRP Gentle Cleanser (the white bottle one) but think it may be causing my closed comedones on my forehead. It’s the best cleanser I’ve ever used because it doesn’t make my skin feel tight at all, but I’ve had stubborn skin colored bumps on my forehead for multiple years now. I finally started using Differin in the end of January and have seen slight improvement but I have read online that the niacinamide in the cleanser could be the cause of the comedones. I am looking for recommendations on gentle cleansers that won’t strip my skin that have no niacinamide. My current routine I’ll put below.
Morning:
\- LRP Gentle Cleanser (only if I feel like I need to cleanse)
\- HaruHaru Black Rice Probiotics Essence
\- Kiehl’s Avocado Undereye Cream
\- Stratia Interface Moisturizer
\- SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella spf
Nighttime:
\- Bioderma Micellar Water (to remove makeup)
\- LRP Gentle Cleanser
\- Differin (only on MWF)
\- HaruHaru Black Rice Probiotics Essence
\- Kiehl’s Avocado Undereye Cream
\- Stratia Interface Moisturizer
\- Avene Cicalfate Cream (for sensitive areas like eyelids and around nose bc of Differin)
I’ve tried the G&G Jelly Cleanser so far and it felt tight on my skin within 3 uses. I’ve tried CeraVe in the past and it was the most tightening product I’ve used. LRP is really great, but again, I’m unsure if it’s causing the closed comedones that are on my forehead. They’ve been there since before I started ANY of the other products that are listed so I don’t think they’re the cause.
Also, I’ve tried fungal acne treatment thinking maybe that could be the issue but they don’t itch and the treatment did nothing anyways.
Open to recommendations!! Thanks!!
