Acne can affect teenagers and adults alike, and an effective acne cleanser is an essential step in any anti-acne skincare regimen. I recommend CeraVe's Acne Control Cleanser as a part of an acne skincare regimen, with 2% salicylic acid to help unclog pores and hectorite clay to help absorb excess oil and control shine.

Acne Control Cleanser also maintains the skin’s protective barrier with 3 essential ceramides, calms the skin with niacinamide and reduces acne while leaving the skin soft, smooth and hydrated. After few uses I have noticed that I had less spots and even clearer looking skin without leaving face dry. I know that this cleanser has really helped with my battle against my acne, especially on my jawline as when I’ve used my balm cleanser on it’s own, it doesn’t do half as good a job as the Blemish Control Cleanser with it. To help reduce the appearance of discolouration and post-acne marks, change out the Blemish Control Gel for CeraVe Retinol Resurfacing Serum.Hauschka Dr LeWinn's Dyson Eco Tan Egyptian Magic ELEVEN Australia elf Cosmetics Elizabeth Arden Ella Baché Elvie Embryolisse Essie Estée Lauder evo Eye Of Horus Face Halo First Aid Beauty FOREO Gem georgiemane ghd Giorgio Armani Glasshouse Fragrances Glister Goldfield and Banks Goldwell Grown Alchemist Habitual Beauty Hada Labo Hanz De Fuko Heir Atelier Hermetica Hismile Hot Tools Huda Beauty Hugo Boss Hunter Lab HydroPeptide I'm From IGK ILES FORMULA Inika INNISFREE Intimina Issey Miyake IT Cosmetics Jane Iredale Jimmy Choo Joico Jo Loves jonny JSHealth Juliette Has A Gun Jurlique K18 Kahlia Skin Kayali Keeko Kerasilk KEVIN. But based on my experience with products like this and the fact that Cerave tries to make gentle formulas, the Glycolic Acid should be between 5 – 7% and the Lactic Acid 5% – 3%. The real majority of cystic red bumpy acne comes from internal causes and all naturopaths/dermatologists would look to your hormones, health/lifestyle and diet etc to help eliminate them before agreeing that an external product is the answer. Please refer to the ingredient list on your product package for the most up to date list of ingredients to ensure it is suitable to your personal use.

As it says the Purifying mask helps improve the appearance of pores, reduces blackheads, and super smooth on skin with its gel like texture. I get no stinging or irritation at all and the best part is it doesn't dry my skin out like some other blemish control cleansers do. This cleanser is for you if you have acne-prone skin, particularly oily skin and struggle with white and blackheads.But for someone like me with dry, dehydrated skin, I was a bit sceptical about this cleanser, but I still tried it because Cerave cleansers tend to work across all skin types. Featuring a lightweight gel-to-foam texture, the gentle formula thoroughly cleanses and refines the skin, without leaving your base feeling stripped or tight.

The packaging is a little clinical, it’s not inviting sitting there in your bathroom but let me tell you the results were fantastic!Now, just for reference, my skin is quite sensitive (probably from all of those years of burning it off with acne products haha. As someone who gets regular breakouts around my chin, I was interested to put their more active products to the test.

It felt great on my skin and left my skin feeling nice and clean without stripping the oils or drying my skin out.There seems to be a few factors as to why my skin got so bad, I think a lot of it was down to stress but this aggravated my hormones and therefore made it all ten times worse.
