CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser Benzoyl Peroxide

CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser

A powerful yet gentle acne-fighting face wash formulated with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide to effectively reduce breakouts in as little as one week. Unlike harsh acne treatments that strip and irritate skin, this dermatologist-developed cleanser combines acne-fighting ingredients with 3 essential ceramides and niacinamide to clear pores while maintaining your skin's protective barrier. The result is clearer, healthier-looking skin without the dryness and irritation typically associated with acne treatments.

How to Use

Wet your face with lukewarm water. Apply a small amount to your fingertips. Gently massage onto face in circular motions, avoiding eye area. Leave on for 1-2 minutes to allow benzoyl peroxide to work. Rinse thoroughly with water. Pat dry with a clean towel. Start with once daily, then increase to twice daily if tolerated. Always follow with an oil-free moisturizer. Use sunscreen during the day (benzoyl peroxide increases sun sensitivity).
