The MD Formulations Non-Glycolic cleanser is a creamy cleanser which is extremely gentle and effective. I used the MD Formulations Non-Glycolic cleanser while I was using Retin-A. My skin was extremely sensitive due to the daily use of Retin-A and I dreaded putting any products on my skin – specially cleansers that contained cleansing agents that would cause burning and stinging which eventually would cause my skin to look visibly red and raw. MD Formulations Non-Glycolic cleanser proved to be just the perfect cleanser for me to use while undergoing treatment with Retin-A.
The MD Formulations cleanser is moderately priced at $18 but it is very effective and I highly recommend this product to those who are being treated with Retin-A (either for acne or wrinkles or both as was my case) or if you are undergoing professional glycolic peels which can at times leave your skin extra sensitive.
As of this writing my two most favorite non-gylcolic cleansers are MD Formulations and Dr. Wexler Universal Anti-Aging Cleanser with MMPi and I rotate them in my regimen every month.

The cleanser works really well but I can’t justify spending so much money on it again. I’m using Olay cream cleanser. It’s less expensive and leaves me with more money to spend on specific treatments.
Have you tried th olay cleanser?

Hi Kat,
I’ve tried several Olay cleansers and will have their reviews up soon.
