So I have a choice of four different facial cleansers to choose from (I've done some research and process of elimination to figure this out) and was wondering which you guys suggest - or if you have any more suggestions.
they are :
-Garnier Moisture Match Shine Be Gone Gel Wash.
-Garnier PureActive Daily Gentle Cream Wash
-Nuetrogena Deep Clean Shine Control Scrub
-Nuetrogena Deep Clean Facial Cleanser
My skin is very weird, its oily and shiny but my forehead can get very dry.
I've used Cetaphil, Simple & Clean & Clear and all have left me oily and horrible.
I also need a moisturiser recommendation. The Garnier Shine Control has a matching moisturiser that I was thinking of buying :-)

Are you looking for exclusively drugstore recommendations?

Cleanser-wise...It sounds like your skin is combination, and what would be best for your skin is a cream cleanser that doesn't foam a ton. The more your soap foams, the more it is stripping your skin. I'd especially avoid the Neutrogena Deep Clean lines, those will dry out your skin like whoa. Of the four that you listed, the Garnier Gentle Cream Wash would probably be the best. I'm personally not a huge fan of drugstore skincare, it's one of those areas in which I feel that you really get what you pay for.

Moisturizer-wise, I enjoy Lumene products on occasion, they have a very heavy cream that can be used at night, and daily I do use the Aveeno Positively Radiant lotion, which I feel is one of the exceptions to the rule about getting what you pay for.

I'd prefer a drugstore cleanser as in Australia its very expensive and not easy to get high end moisturiser - plus I'm not exactly rich. Thank you Hannah :-)

I also live in Australia, I'm not sure about cleansers ( I use a blemish control scrub) but I did really love the moisture match moisturiser that I got in a sample box, it's super lightweight and feels amazing on my skin, which is also a combination of oily and dry, it's smells great too, I believe it was a sample of the pink bottle, hope that helped x
