Rec for a very gentle cleanser?

Something without fragrance also. Thanks.

Cetaphil.. Cleanses, rinses off clean, no scent.

I'm rather fond of the Clearasil Daily Facial Wash. It's cheap, it's
non–drying (it has the consistency of a lot of the more expensive
Japanese cleansers) and it was the only thing my face could handle when
I was using Retin–A Micro that both removed all traces of makeup and
didn't sting or overdry it.
For higher end, I like Shu Uemura Cleansing Water. I have no idea if
this is still available (I had two bottles lost during a move, replaced
them and then found the original two. Each bottle lasts me a long time
so I've been well–stocked! for the last 2.5 years!)

Another vote for Cetaphil. It is unscented and I find it rinses off
clean but I don't wear much makeup. YMMV if you wear alot of makeup.
It doesn't leave my face tight or raw and the braille bumps on my
forehead are gone now.
I'm officially converted.

Another cool thing about Cetaphil is that it's a good cleanser to add
an exfoliant to if you wnat a scrub from time to time. I add a little
baking soda or azuki beans ground to powder, they're supposed to be oil
absorbing.

Lots of folks like Cetaphil.

Another vote for Cetaphil. I also really like Spectrojel. I feel torn
sometimes between the two.
I find if I need to remove eyemakeup, I just use cottonballs w/ the
Cetaphil. If you have oilier skin, they also make a foaming
cleanser... but I find the smell is a little odd.
If you wear a lot of makeup, the MAC Cleanse Off Oil is also good.

I use Phisoderm.

I like Olay Foaming Face Wash. I use the regular version, but they
also make a "Sensitive Skin" version with no fragrance. Both are very
gentle and do a good job of removing even eye makeup when I wash my
face.
I have used Cetaphil in the past....I wonder why I stopped? Maybe
it's time to try that again.

I've been alternating between Cetaphil and an Aveeno facial scrub. I forget
the name of it but it comes in a cucumber green tube. I love it. It's the
only thing that's not drying and I feel like my skin looks better after using
it.

Oh, I forgot about the Aveeno....Mine is called "Aveeno Daily Gentle
Scrub" or something like that. I don't use it every day; probably 2–3
times a week in the shower. I like this stuff, too; I just have to
remember to use a light hand with it or else it's too scratchy or
something.
