Firstly I have loved every CeraVe product I have tried thus far, and since my skin reacts extremelt well to SA I was so excited to try this cleanser. I starter incoprorating this cleanser into my daily cleansing routine. However, I also continued to use my 2% Salicylic Acid Serum in the evening, alongside the CeraVe SA lotion. It is evident that I damaged my skins barrier, it was dry, itchy and irratable. I evaluated my routine and found it best to cleanse with SA 2-3 times per week as opposed to every day and I have seen such a difference. What I LOVE about this cleanser is that it has a gel like consistency but then foams really nicely once applied. It also leaves your skin feeling so clean and soft. In conclusion, I really like this cleanser but persoanally am going to use it a couple of times per week and not daily.
I have also found that it is great for body acne - if I have a random pimple appear on my back / chest or a few bumps, I pop some of this cleanser on and it seems to speed up the healing process.
Upon using this product daily my skin became dry and irratable. However, I believe this was due to me using far too many quantities of SA in my routine and I have since found a way to use this product that suits me.
