Overview
Not a scrub with beads or grains, this CeraVe cleanser exfoliates chemically with salicylic acid while it removes dirt and oil. It turns into a foaming gel, adds hyaluronic acid and ceramides, and the brand developed it with dermatologists.
Gentle exfoliation without particles is the reason to look at it, with ceramides to support the barrier and a non comedogenic, fragrance-free formula. The description calls it suitable for sensitive and acne-prone skin and for the body. It does not list directions or the salicylic acid percentage.
Who it's for
People with oily, rough or acne-prone skin who want a gentle daily exfoliating cleanser for face and body. Those with very dry skin, or who need a stated acid strength, should use a milder wash.
Pros and cons

Performance notes
Salicylic acid dissolves dead skin and oil inside pores while the foaming gel lifts dirt off the surface, so no scrubbing particles are needed. Ceramides and hyaluronic acid are included to offset dryness, and contact time affects how much exfoliation happens.
