Shop face skincare at withaid, a UK based and regulated pharmacy, with fast, free delivery on orders over £20 in discreet Royal Mail packaging. Spend over £30 and delivery is upgraded to Royal Mail 24 at no extra cost. This Face category brings together everyday essentials for cleansing and moisturising, plus targeted options for common needs such as dryness, sensitivity and blemish-prone skin. You’ll find practical formats including gentle face washes, wash gels, dry skin creams, face masks, face care gels and daily facial sunscreen (SPF) so you can keep your routine simple and consistent.
If you’re unsure where to start, choose by routine step: cleanse with a face wash you’ll use regularly, follow with a moisturiser for comfort, and add face SPF in the daytime. You may also see some products labelled for face & body cleansing (and occasionally wider wash formats shown alongside face items). If you’re picking something multi-use, check the product name and directions to confirm it’s suitable for facial use and avoid the eye area. For spot-prone skin, active wash gels (such as benzoyl peroxide products) should be introduced gradually and used exactly as directed, as they can be drying or irritating for some people.
Shop by face skincare type
Popular types of face skincare products
- Face washes and gentle cleansers: daily cleansing options for sensitive, dry or spot-prone skin.
- Acne and blemish-prone wash gels: targeted cleansers, including benzoyl peroxide formats where suitable.

How to choose the right option
- Choose by routine step: cleanse, moisturise, then add face SPF in the daytime.
- Match texture to comfort: lighter gels can suit oilier skin; richer creams can suit dryness.
- Introduce actives gradually: acne wash gels can be drying, so start slowly and use exactly as directed.
- Check multi-use products: if a cleanser is labelled face & body, confirm it’s suitable for facial use and avoid the eye area.
- Change one thing at a time: it’s easier to spot what suits your skin (and what causes irritation).
- Review warnings before buying: check age guidance, allergies and cautions on the pack.
FAQs
What’s a simple face skincare routine to start with?
A simple routine is cleanser + moisturiser, with a facial SPF in the daytime. If you add a targeted product (such as a mask or acne wash gel), introduce it gradually and follow the label directions.
Which face wash is best for sensitive skin?
Many people prefer gentle, fragrance-free cleansers and avoid over-washing. If your skin feels tight, stings or looks red after cleansing, switch to a milder wash and reduce exfoliating products until your skin feels comfortable.
Why are some face & body or wash products shown here?
Some cleansers are designed for both face and body use and may appear alongside face-specific items. Always check the product name and directions to confirm facial suitability and stop use if you experience irritation.
Can I use a benzoyl peroxide face wash every day?
Some benzoyl peroxide wash gels are intended for regular use, but they can cause dryness or irritation for some people. Start slowly, use exactly as directed, avoid contact with eyes and broken skin, and stop use if you develop significant irritation.
Can benzoyl peroxide wash gel affect towels or clothing?
Benzoyl peroxide can bleach fabrics. Rinse thoroughly after use, wash hands after applying, and take care with towels, bedding and clothing until the product has been fully rinsed away.
Can I use these products if I’m pregnant, breastfeeding, or using prescription skin treatment?
If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, or you’re using prescription skin treatments, check the label and ask a pharmacist for advice before starting new products—especially those containing active ingredients for acne or exfoliation.
When should I speak to a pharmacist or GP about my skin?
Seek advice if symptoms are persistent, worsening, painful, or you suspect infection; if acne is severe; if you have a significant reaction to a product; or if you’re unsure what’s suitable for you or your child.
Safety notice: Always read and follow the product label. Skincare products (including acne washes and other actives) may not be suitable for everyone and can cause irritation. If symptoms persist or you’re concerned, speak to a pharmacist or GP.
