Review: The only acne face wash that works - This is the only face wash that has curbed and HEALED my extremely stubborn hormonal acne. I had been having super painful cystic acne on my forehead, temples, and cheeks and this wiped it all out. More than that, it has encouraged cell turnover and my skin is finally starting to get rid of scarring. It’s so foamy and makes your skin soft and balanced. It really helps with sebaceous filaments too in the t zone! It’s the perfect amount of strength without drying your skin out, just follow it up with toner and a good moisturizer! (I use witch hazel and equate moisturizer) I wash my face in the AM & PM and it really helps my skin a TON. It does purge, but it’s worth it. Your confidence will go up and your skin will thank you. Just buy it!
Review: Cleared My Skin Without Drying It Out - CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser has been one of the best additions to my skincare routine. The 2% salicylic acid really helps keep breakouts under control without being overly harsh. I noticed clearer skin and fewer clogged pores after consistent use. What I love most is that it doesn’t strip my skin. The niacinamide and ceramides make a big difference — my face feels clean but not tight or dry afterward. It balances oil well without overdoing it. It lathers nicely, rinses clean, and feels gentle enough for regular use. If you’re dealing with acne but still want something that supports your skin barrier, this is absolutely worth trying. Easy 5 stars.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product
*by J***H on February 3, 2026*

For reference, my skin type is oily, and this cleanser has honestly been a game changer for me. It keeps my skin feeling clean without stripping it, which is hard to find with acne products. Even though it targets breakouts, it’s still moisturizing and helps protect my skin barrier instead of leaving it tight or irritated. It’s very gentle and works well for daily use, including morning and night. My skin feels noticeably softer after washing, not dry or squeaky. It does a great job cleaning off oil and buildup, and my face actually feels fresh afterward. I also haven’t had any issues with leaking from the bottle, which is a nice bonus. Overall, my skin feels clean, balanced, and calmer since using this, and it’s easily become a staple in my routine.
