Acne Control Cleanser with 2% Salicylic Acid.

"So, instead of using pore vacuums, I recommend keeping your pores clear with a nice exfoliating cleanser without beads, something with salicylic acid, whether it's Cetaphil's gentle exfoliating SA cleanser or CeraVe's acne control cleanser."

"At the end of the day I want to use something with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. The CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser with two percent salicylic acid has the ceramides that we're used to seeing and then it has the hectorite clay. Hectorite clay is great if you have oily skin because it will help absorb that excess oil. And then you also have niacinamide which is great for regulated sebum production, help you with brightening your skin. It's very good if you have acne-prone skin. This is one of my favorite new cleansers."

"When I'm done with a day of being at the beach I'm gonna wash my face. I'm gonna use something with acne fighting ingredients like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide because most of the time growing up when I used to break out was after the beach and it was all the gross grime that I collect in my temples. I would get those pimples in the temples and I even get that when I go camping now. CeraVe's Acne Control Cleanser, which is two percent salicylic acid, is what I use."

"CeraVe is also a great one. Their Acne Control Cleanser with 2% Salicylic Acid is awesome. You know, if you have a pretty good layer of makeup and you're having trouble washing that off with just one cleanse, the double cleansing method is something to consider if you have a nice layer of makeup."

"The newer one that came out would be very for oily skin is their acne control cleanser with hectorite clay and niacinamide. The hectorite clay will help absorb the excess sebum and oil on your face and wash it all away. This is a two percent salicylic acid cleanser."

"Use an exfoliating cleanser with salicylic acid, like CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser, to wash your face and remove makeup, sunscreen, dirt and grime out of your pores."

"I'm a fan of introducing a salicylic acid cleanser. One of my favorites is the CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser. It has two percent salicylic acid and is fragrance free. This also has niacinamide which is helpful for reducing oxidation of sebum, and it also has hectorite clay which is going to help absorb some excess sebum from the surface of the skin and from within the pore. You can introduce this into your routine using it one to two times a day as tolerated, morning and or evening depending on how you tolerate it. Many people tolerate using it twice a day just fine, whereas for other people that may be too drying, you may want to do it just once a day. Lather it to the entire face, sparing around the eyelids because it can be very drying around the eyelids. Leave the lather on the skin for a few minutes, let it really soak in, and then rinse it off. Through co-observation, the salicylic acid in this can be left behind on the skin surface while the other cleanser ingredients are rinsed off along with the oil on your skin. So this is a great option and a great place to start. Some people can clear up and prevent their closed comedones just doing that, but that's not going to be the case for everyone."

"The salicylic acid cleanser I have been loving over the past several years and continue to recommend is CeraVe's acne control cleanser. It offers 2% salicylic acid. The advantage of using salicylic acid for acne is it's anti-inflammatory. It helps to exfoliate the pore. Of all the chemical exfoliants, salicylic acid is able to finesse getting down in the pore. Plus it has the added benefit of gently exfoliating the skin, helping to clear up and by its anti-inflammatory effects prevent to a certain extent post-acne dark marks. In addition to salicylic acid, this also has niacinamide, a B vitamin with anti-inflammatory properties. It's a CeraVe product, so that means it's got ceramides in there, lipids naturally found in your skin. Applying them exogenously may help combat dryness and irritation by helping your skin make more of its own natural barrier components. It's fragrance-free."

"CeraVe's acne control cleanser is also another salicylic acid facial cleanser that's great for those issues."

"If you have acne and you have dry skin, you could try the SA Cleanser, but they actually have an acne medicated cleanser, the Acne Control Cleanser, with two percent salicylic acid, and the background formula really helps address the needs of the moisture barrier. So for those of you who deal with a lot of dryness, especially as it relates to your acne medications, it has ceramides and niacinamide similar to the SA cleanser but a higher percentage of salicylic acid. If you've got really inflammatory acne you may need that higher percentage, and this gives you a formula that addresses the barrier issues that can go alongside acne and make you more prone to irritation."

"CeraVe also came out with an Acne Control Cleanser with two percent salicylic acid that's really good."

"My favorite brand here is CeraVe, it is very gentle. I personally use the 4% acne foaming cleanser, love it, even for the most sensitive skin. I use it on my face, I use it on my back, I even use it on my armpit for body odor."

"CeraVe acne foaming wash comes in 4% and 10%. If you're somebody with sensitive skin, consider starting with 4%, but for like back acne or maybe the buttock areas, the 10% might work better."

"My recommendation here would be either the panoxil or the [CeraVe] acne foaming wash in the 4% cuz it tends to be a little bit more irritating."

"I really like the CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser. It's a 2% salicylic acid wash, you rub it on and leave it on for 30 to 60 seconds before you rinse it off."

"This comes with a 2 percent salicylic acid, which is really good at removing excess oil from the skin and helps unclog the pores, so if you tend to get a lot of blackheads and whiteheads this is a cleanser I would recommend for you. If you have really dry skin this could be a bit much, but if you have oily and acne prone skin, I highly recommend the acne control cleanser. This is the cleanser I'm going to use tonight before I go to bed because it's going to remove all that excess oil and help remove the sunscreen I've got on."

"The CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser is dedicated to treating acne because it is a 2% salicylic acid. It also has niacinamide in it, which helps regulate oil production. If you're really oily, you could still use this as a twice a day cleanser."

"One of the benzoyl peroxide washes I really like is the CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser. It's a foaming four percent benzoyl peroxide cleanser, and with CeraVe's ceramides and MVE technology, it's one of the less irritating forms of benzoyl peroxide you can get."

"My second step of double cleansing is actually using a medicated acne cleanser and this is even more important when I travel because I break out more. I just have a ton of these little CeraVe Acne Foaming Cleanser in my bag and basically just replenish them when I run out. These are samples from clinic so they're really convenient. I love them."

"This is a cleanser that contains 2% salicylic acid along with niacinamide ceramides and a really nice gentle gel to foam formulation. Cleansers are a great way in a more gentle way to slowly over time help to unclog pores. It's definitely not going to be as effective as leave-on treatments but also with that it's going to be far less irritating. I really recommend for individuals who have more dry and sensitive skin who struggle with clogged pores or looking for a good acne cleanser to incorporate into their routine. This is definitely something to think about adding into your routine if you have predominantly clogged pores or comedonal acne. The cleanser is pretty gentle but does cleanse fairly nicely."

"I love the newer one by CeraVe the acne control cleanser."

"The acne control cleanser is an over-the-counter medication that contains 2 percent salicylic acid, which is the highest strength you can get over the counter and it's listed in the active ingredients section. In contrast, the SA renewing cleanser is not regulated as a medication and it contains an undisclosed percentage of salicylic acid with no active ingredients specified on the label, which suggests that it is likely less potent than the dedicated acne cleanser. Look for an active ingredient with salicylic acid listed as 2 percent in your acne cleanser, and get a medicated cleanser which you can identify by the presence of an active ingredient section on the back of the label."
