Key Features and Benefits:

Salicylic Acid (SA) for Exfoliation: The key active ingredient is Salicylic Acid, a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA). It works to gently exfoliate the skin, both on the surface and within the pores. This helps to remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and soften rough skin, which can improve texture and reduce breakouts.

Non-Stripping and Non-Irritating: Unlike harsh physical exfoliants (like scrubs with microbeads) that can scratch and irritate the skin, this cleanser provides a chemical exfoliation that is gentle. It effectively removes dirt, oil, and makeup without leaving the skin feeling dry or tight.

Essential Ceramides: The formula is enriched with CeraVe's signature blend of three essential ceramides (1, 3, and 6-II). Ceramides are naturally found in the skin and are crucial for restoring and maintaining the skin's natural barrier. This helps to lock in moisture and keep irritants out.

Hyaluronic Acid: This ingredient is a powerful humectant that attracts and retains moisture on the skin's surface, helping to keep it hydrated and plump.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Niacinamide helps to calm the skin, reduce redness, and improve the overall appearance of the skin barrier.

Versatile Use: The cleanser is suitable for use on both the face and body. It's often recommended for individuals with normal to rough, bumpy skin, acne-prone skin, or even conditions like keratosis pilaris (often called "chicken skin").

Non-Comedogenic and Fragrance-Free: The product is designed not to clog pores and is free of added fragrances, which makes it suitable for sensitive skin.

Dermatologist-Developed: CeraVe products are co-developed with dermatologists, ensuring they are safe, effective, and backed by scientific research.
