CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser

Probably one of the best face washes I’ve tried if you have combination skin. Doesn’t leave the skin feeling very dry after use. Skin feels moisturised and clean at the same time. Managed to remove my waterproof mascara (would recommend double washing though). If you’re looking for value for your money, this is the product.

Too be honest, I was nervous about trialling this product. In the past products aimed at clearing up spots have been really drying to my skin.

I was surprised and relieved to find this face wash wasn't drying at all, even before I'd moisturised.

The bottle was easy to use, with an easy to use open and close mechanism.

To be honest, if I'm conscious about washing my face twice a day almost any cleanser will keep my skin clear, so I decided to up the challenge and also use it on my arms - where I have Keratosis pilaris (those little bumps). Using this product does seem to have reduced the bumps, without drying out my skin, even though I haven't been moisturising my arms after.

This product is not beautiful or luxurious, but it has been doing a solid job of caring for my skin. I'm very happy with it and will probably continue buying it after I finish this bottle.

Typically I get hormonal breakouts from time to time so don't have a great amount of blemishes and my skin is fairly normal mostly. I used this gel to foam on my damp skin with about a half pump from the handy dispenser. I love a product with salicylic acid and this contains 2%. It lathers up well and gives a great deep cleanse. I know this as it removed my daily make-up perfectly as when I toned afterwards, there was no residual make-up left on the cotton ball I used. My skin felt so clean afterwards and not dry at all. For around $25, dermatologist developed and made in France this is a very affordable top quality Cleanser.

This gel to foam cleanser has 2% salicylic acid, hectorite clay for blemish control, niacinamide to smooth and calm the skin, plus ceramides to balance the skins natural moisture barrier. It has a slight earthy scent which I didn’t at all mind (I figured it must be the clay). When I first used it I was impressed that it didn’t leave my skin dried out like most cleansers with actives in them. It actually felt balanced on my combination skin and I’ve been using it daily so far for the past couple of weeks.

I would say this is absolutely perfect to anyone who has oily to combination skin or even gentle enough for teenagers to start out.

The CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser is a great product if you suffer from blemish prone skin.

The first thing I noticed about the CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser, when I used it for the first time was that it was fragrance free, which is huge positive for me, as I personally prefer products that have a mild or no fragrance.

I have combination skin, so for me a product in my skincare route with salicylic acid is a must. I have been using this Cleanser for a couple of weeks now. This Cleanser has 2% Salicylic Acid, and I found it effective at both clearing up the small pimples I had on my face, and also preventing new ones from appearing. I found the formula to be gentle yet effective. I have sensitive skin and did not have any irritation. It also did not dry out my skin like other products can.

I love the packaging. It is aesthetically pleasing and has a luxurious look/shape to the bottle. I really enjoy that the Cleanser has a pump which is very convenient. I found that one pump was the perfect amount, so there isn’t any wastage. The Cleanser comes out as a liquid and foams up a bit as you rub it into your skin. I used this product in conjunction with the CeraVe Blemish Control Gel.

I was really impressed by the overall performance of the CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser, and in particular how affordable it is. You get a decent amount of product for the price. I will be repurchasing once my bottle is finished. I highly recommend it to anyone dealing with blemish prone skin.

This cleanser has your skin in mind. It doesn't seem to strip away the natural oils in your skin as do many blemish control cleansers. I didn't feel like my skin was squeaky clean, which I was really pleased about. I feel like this is the type of cleanser that I could use all the time as it's not stripping my natural barrier. I love that it includes ceramides to help keep the skin moisturised, as I have some quite dry parts on my skin too. The gel has a nice feel about it and is really clear. It goes on really nicely and feels really gentle. I love the little pump bottle, which makes it so much quicker and easier to use, especially in the shower. After using this product for some time I noticed that my skin was losing some of those little bumps and was starting to feel a lot smoother. No blemishes either, so perhaps it was preventing them from even thinking about starting. This product worked really well for my skin and for the price it would be definitely something that I would purchase again. I'd also like my daughter to try it to see if it works for her.

I love this cleanser. I had a couple of small active breakouts when I started using this, and I really noticed the difference between this cleanser and my usual over the next couple of days. The consistency is what you know and love from CeraVe, and I found that despite it being a blemish control cleanser, it wasn't super harsh or drying which I appreciate as my skin can lean sensitive sometimes.

I'll start off with the packaging. Call me snobbish, but I do not like a cluttered bathroom top. Things must look aesthetic to me. This cleanser fitted in nice with its simple, white pump bottle on my counter.

The product self was really good & my face did feel so much cleaner afterwards. I know it is most probably a clisé, but my face felt fresh, clean and hydrated afterwards. Most times these types of cleaners dries out your face, but not this one. I think I've fallen in love with it & will definitely be using this going forward.

After two weeks of using it, I can definitely state that there is an improvement in my skin, especially my pores.
