Acne is a common skin concern at any age, spanning from the teen years
to adulthood. An effective acne cleanser is the first step of an
anti-acne regimen ,and it sets the stage for other products that follow,
including over-the-counter and prescription-based acne treatments.
Beyond helping to clear acne pimples and blackheads, an acne cleanser
with benzoyl peroxide can also help give acne blemishes a chance to heal
while maintaining the skin’s barrier.
Ceramides are an essential
component of the skin’s barrier. Their levels can be depleted over time
by using harsh skincare products, which can lead to a potential increase
in dryness and irritation. Acne-prone skin has been associated with
lower levels of ceramides that play a key role in the skin’s protective
barrier, so an acne face wash that is formulated with these lipids may
be able to help maintain clear skin.
CeraVe is the #1
dermatologist-recommended moisturizer brand for acne*, and our first
acne-treatment product with 4% benzoyl peroxide is backed by
well-established skincare knowledge and expertise. The new CeraVe Acne
Foaming Cream Cleanser acne face wash is formulated to thoroughly
dissolve dirt and excess oil while clearing acne with 4% benzoyl
peroxide. This formula also features Hyaluronic acid to help retain the
skin’s natural moisture and niacinamide to provide soothing benefits,
while allowing skin to heal.
Developed with dermatologists, this 4%
benzoyl peroxide cleanser clears acne breakouts and helps prevent new
blemishes from forming. Gentle on the skin, CeraVe Acne Foaming Cream
