Time to update my face wash to a Vegan variety. I have noticed other threads but am specifically looking for a face wash in a tube or other container (less clean up on my bathroom sink area) for sensitive combination skin.

Was using Olay (why I must update), had tried in the past Neutragena - made skin breakout and MaryKay before that - couldn't use any of the cosmetics including skin care, made me break out in rash.

Suggestions would be great, from a mainstream source even better!

The Body Shop has an awesome Hemp one.

I second the Body Shop, I'm using their Soy and Calendula (for dry/sensitive skin). Its been very good to my skin. Previously I was trying out one of Alba's Pineapple Enzyme Facial Cleanser, which I found too drying, even though it was supposed to be good for all skin types..

Good luck!

I have ridiculously sensitive skin. I have still failed to find a moisturizer that I can use that wont irritate my skin. The only facewash I've found that works for me and really helps my complexion is "pure cream" by origins. I doubt that it is vegan, but I do not believe that they test on animals.

Apricot scrub! Thats vegan, right? I'm not a vegan, but I use it. I know it is not tested on animals.

Cetaphil actually tests on animals. I just emailed then a few days ago to ask:(
I use basis face wash right now, and I know that they do not test on animals.

well, i really like Vichy cleansing milk. i called them and asked if they tested on animals, or had any animal ingredients/biproducts and they told me no. but then i was looking at the ingredients on the toner today and noticed "castor oil" that is a biproduct is it not?? the cleanser might be alright though....i want to find ou because i <2 it.

I think Origins is totally vegan.

I am using the Soy now, it isn't irritating my skin, but doesn't seem to get all the make-up off and I am seeing a little bit of a break out. I do not think the break out is from the soy, but from not getting all the make up off. I will most likely use this up then try another brand.

If I've worn any make-up, I use coconut oil or olive oil to get it off.

baking soda as a "scrub" followed by honey (using up what's left) I'm going to try agave nectar but the baking soda/honey combo has been working for me pretty well.
