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.
