CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser

Meet CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser—a dermatologist-developed, gel-to-foam face wash powered by 2% salicylic acid to unclog pores and reduce blackheads, plus 3 essential ceramides to protect your skin barrier. Niacinamide helps calm the look of redness so acne-prone, oily, and combination skin feels clean—not tight.

Key Benefits

CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser unclogs pores with 2% Salicylic Acid : Beta-hydroxy acid gently exfoliates inside the pore to lift excess oil and debris for fewer breakouts. 

CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser protects the barrier with 3 Essential Ceramides : Ceramide NP, AP & EOP replenish what blemish treatments often strip, helping prevent dryness and tightness. 

Soothes and balances with Niacinamide : Helps calm visible irritation and supports a more even-looking tone. 

Controls excess oil & targets blackheads : Oil-absorbing hectorite plus exfoliating acids help keep shine and blackheads in check. 

Daily-gentle, fragrance-free cleanse : Non-comedogenic formula that rinses clean without over-drying.
