Daily acne cleansing with 2% Salicylic Acid + Oil-Absorbing Clay.
CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser is a dermatologist-developed facial cleanser formulated with 2% Salicylic Acid to help clear acne, reduce blackheads and help prevent new breakouts while maintaining the skin's protective barrier.
Unlike a basic salicylic acid cleanser, the formula combines Oil-Absorbing Technology with Hectorite Clay to help remove excess oil and visibly reduce shine — making it particularly suitable for oily, acne-prone and combination skin.
It also features Niacinamide and CeraVe's 3 Essential Ceramides to help calm and support the skin barrier while cleansing.
This is the 237ml / 8 fl oz USA version, made for the US market.
