CeraVe Face Wash Acne Treatment Salicylic Acid Cleanser with Purifying Clay for Oily Skin Blackhead Remover and Clogged Pore Control - 8 Ounce

Salicylic acid (SA) is a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) that aids in the removal of dead skin cells, the reduction of blackheads and the appearance of pores, as well as the treatment and prevention of acne. Chemical exfoliants are gentler on the skin than physical exfoliants such as face scrubs. Apply CeraVe Acne Control Gel to the entire face in a thin layer after cleaning with CeraVe Acne Treatment Face Wash. Because this product may make you more sensitive to the sun, use CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion with SPF 30 instead. As you lather, it turns from a transparent gel to a light, foamy face cleanser. Skin is smoothed, hydrated, and cleansed without feeling stripped or tight after the mild wash and exfoliation. CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser aids in the prevention of new outbreaks. Oil-absorbing purifying clay and Niacinamide aid to decrease blocked pores and soothe skin. Ceramides are lipids that make up half of the lipids in the skin barrier and are present naturally in the skin. Ceramides (1, 3, 6-II) are present in all CeraVe products to aid in the restoration and maintenance of the skin's natural barrier. Acne may affect both teens and adults, and a good acne cleanser is an important part of any anti-acne skincare routine. A cleanser containing salicylic acid is ideal for daily use to gently exfoliate the dead skin cells that can block pores and contribute to acne. It may complement other over-the-counter and prescription-based acne treatments to help maintain clear, healthy skin—but see your dermatologist first. CeraVe is the #1 dermatologist-recommended acne moisturizer*, and our new Acne Control Cleanser with 2% salicylic acid is designed to treat acne, remove blackheads, and smooth out pores while purifying clay absorbs excess oil. This refreshing gel-to-foam salicylic acid cleanser eliminates impurities and excess oil, gently exfoliates, and penetrates congested pores to help prevent new acne outbreaks. It also has Oil-Absorbing Technology to decrease apparent shine. Acne Control Cleanser also contains 3 vital ceramides, which help to maintain the skin's protective barrier, relax the skin with niacinamide, and decrease acne while leaving the skin soft, smooth, and moisturized.
