CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser in the 16 fl oz (473 ml)

The CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser is a gel-to-foam facial wash developed with dermatologists to treat active breakouts and reduce blackheads with every use. The 2% salicylic acid (BHA) formula penetrates deep into pores to dissolve the excess oil and debris that trigger new spots, so skin looks clearer over consistent use. Hectorite clay and oil-absorbing technology work together to minimise visible shine throughout the day — a noticeable difference for anyone with oily or combination skin. Unlike many acne treatments that strip the skin, this cleanser includes three essential ceramides (1, 3, and 6-II) that help maintain the skin's natural protective barrier, reducing the tight, uncomfortable feeling that can follow cleansing. Niacinamide is also included to calm redness and soothe irritation around blemishes. The fragrance-free, paraben-free, and non-comedogenic formula makes it well suited to oily and acne-prone skin types. Use morning and evening, leaving the lather on for no more than 15–30 seconds before rinsing. At 473 ml with a pump dispenser, the bottle provides generous daily use without frequent repurchasing. Pair with a broad-spectrum SPF moisturiser each morning, as salicylic acid can increase sun sensitivity.
