TalkingMakeup.com: Daily makeup and beauty blog and makeup tutorials

On my recent trip to New York City I’ve discovered some great new skincare brands and products, and I’m very excited to share them them you.

I love cleansing my face before bed and especially in the morning. I look for cleansers that are not too greasy or too irritating. I also want my cleanser to work effectively in removing makeup and refreshing my face.

Here is Marta’s top face cleansers for this week:

Fresh Soy Face Cleanser Extra Gentle For Face And Eyes: Love this cleanser. It’s very gentle, smells a bit like cucumber which is quites relaxing. It leaves my skin fresh, clean, and ready for my day. More great stuff: it contains high concentration of soy proteins packed with amino acids and antioxidants. SRP: $15 for 1.7 oz. $38 for 5.1 oz. Available at www.fresh.com & Sephora.com

Peter Thomas Roth Gentle Foaming Cleanser: Cleanser and makeup remover in one, with wheat amino acids and vitamins A C & E. This cleanser is soap-free, sulfate-free, alcohol-free, and fragrance free. A very gentle cleanser for anyone, especially if you have sensitive skin or like your products green. SRP: $32. Available at www.peterthomasroth.com & Sephora.com

Mission Skincare Active Daily Facial Cleanser Sweet Citrus by Serena Williams: It’s engineered with a unique self-foaming oxygenating technology that cleans impurities, removes makeup, nourishes and revitalizes skin in only 90 seconds. Make sure to squeeze just a little bit of products because it really lathers a lot. It left my skin hydrated, fresh, and clean. It feels like an oxygen mask and quite invigorating for tired skin. Perfect if you’ve been partying the night before, or need a quick pick-me-up or boost for your skin before going out. It contains vitamins & antioxidants and it’s paraben free. SRP: $39.99.
