SA Smoothing Cleanser

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The cleanser has a light gel texture that feels gentle on the skin. It doesn’t foam heavily but still leaves my skin feeling clean without that tight, dry feeling. It contains salicylic acid, which helps exfoliate and unclog pores over time. I use it regularly on my legs and arms, and it helps reduce roughness and improve skin texture gradually. It’s also fragrance-free, which makes it suitable for daily use without irritation. Highly recommended.

Really does cleanse and smooth your skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really easy to dispense and on wet skin it lathers up well, but not excessively. Whilst it's smoothing cleanser it doesn't feel rough although genuinely feels like it smooths and softens your skin. Used with the smoothing cream it makes your skin feel amazingly soft and smooth

Awesome duo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] you struggle with rough texture, little bumps or that “not quite smooth” skin… this combo is one I’ve been testing 👀 Let’s start with the cleanser… The SA Smoothing Cleanser is one of those quiet overachievers. It gently exfoliates while cleansing (thanks to salicylic acid), so your skin feels clean and smoother without that tight, stripped feeling. I’ve noticed it really helps with texture over time — especially on arms and legs too, not just face. (CeraVe) Now the cream… The SA Smoothing Cream is where the magic really locks in. It hydrates but also keeps working on smoothing the skin, so together they’re a proper team. Skin feels softer, looks more even, and those little bumps gradually calm down.

Gentle exfoliation for smoother skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser and it’s been really effective for keeping my skin smooth and clear. It gently exfoliates without feeling harsh, helping to reduce rough texture and small bumps over time. I like that it cleanses well without stripping my skin, and it leaves my face feeling soft and refreshed. It’s great for daily use, especially if you struggle with uneven texture or dryness.

Soothing Cleanser

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has a very gentle, moisturising soothing feel. I have combination skin rather than dry skin; this cleanser helped reduce the oilyness. It lathers well and doesn’t need a large amount. I can honestly cleanse my face with this and apply the SA Smoothing Cream and have a complete skincare routine.

Did nothing for me

I have rough bumpy skin and was so excited to use this but it literally did nothing for me. I still broke out weekly as usual, and at some point struggled with whiteheads all over my face. Breakouts aside, it did not even improve the texture of my skin in any way.

My Experience with this cleanser

I used this on the small bumps on my forehead and because I was mainly getting pimples there and the first 2 weeks I used it I noticed I was getting more pimples and spots and was going to stop using it until I found out that I was actually ‘purging’ which meant my skin was adapting to the cleanser and renewing my skin cells and after the 2 weeks of using it the spots went away and actually improved my skin and made it smoother before I started using it. I also noticed I’m getting so much less pimples and the bumps are slowly going away, I recommend this product so much and I think the only reason this product has bad reviews is cause of people not searching up why they are breaking out since it’s from a good reason as it improves your skin after 10/10

My go to face wash

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After years of suffering from mild acne and bumps I decided to try this face wash after hearing so many good things about it.. Well, it's been 2 years and this face wash hasn't failed me!. My skin is completely clear, free from dull and dry skin! My bumps has all cleared, it's brighten my complexion, and my skin feels plumped and smooth. I use this face wash along with cerave SA smoothing cream. I can't live without it. I have tried many other skin care brands but this one worked well for me. My skin used to look so dull honestly and before my period I always used to break out on my face but cerave SA face wash was and SA cream has stopped all that. You have to be consistent with it to see results.

Overhyped: Terrible for Sensitive Acne Prone Skin!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had seen this cleanser raved about everywhere! From proclaimed skin care influencers, right to trusted dermatologists. It was a product that was hyped, and prescribed as the holy grail to a dry, sensitive and acne prone skin type. This definitely intrigued me because that was my skin type, and it was always my pain point for maintaining my skin. I bought this initially when I came to London, thinking it would help me as my holy grail cleanser to defend my skin against both the weather and hard water that comes with the UK. Oh goodness was I wrong. As anyone with adult acne or sensitive skin knows, we only change one thing in our skin routine at a time. It's a sure fire was of finding a culprit to a problem, bad product or purging in some cases. I always used this method to help to monitor a product in case of flare ups. When I started using this cleanser, I had some initial breakouts. I initially attributed this to purging and rebalancing of my skin barrier given this product had ceramides in it. So I continued to give it a go and ride out the wave, just like I once did with retinol. I continued to use this cleanser over the next few days. As I continued use, by each day that passed, I found more, and more breakouts appear! They appeared in a cystic pattern (closed and painful bumps) all over my cheeks, chin, around my mouth and on my forehead. I never got breakouts around my face like that before and it cropped up in hives. Initially, naive me, thought oh it must be the hard water I'm washing my face with. So I adapted, and for the next few days I continued to use the cleanser with distilled water. And it didn't get better! I started feeling really upset about my skin condition worsening as I not only got cystic acne flare ups all over my face, but I was left with hyperpigmentation! As I was becoming quite upset with my routine, I decided to change my skincare cycle with my retinols and azelaic acids. That made no difference. So I decided to skip this cleanser one evening and use my Paula's Choice cleanser instead (my tried and true). And you wouldn't guess it in your wildest dreams! My skin cleared up within days! Hard water, retinol, azelaic acid and all! I realised that this product was causing all the painful breakouts, bumps and cystic acne that were painful, red and angry. As someone who never writes reviews, but has a passion for skin care regarding adult acne, this is my first one and I have to say one thing. STAY AWAY FROM THIS. You will do yourself a massive favour. I can't stress it enough, if it is not broken, there is nothing to fix in your skincare routine. Even if you are bored or there is a new product out on the market. Save your money and your skin and don't pick this up!!!!

Fantastic product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was battling the most horrific hormonal acne and I can confidently say that this SA cleanser has single handed saved my skin! I am a self confessed skin care junkie (with sensitive combo skin) but during lockdown, I’m not sure if it was a combination of stress and mask wearing but I was breaking out everyday on my jawline and cheeks. It was really getting me down. But within 2 weeks of AM and PM use (I also do a double cleanse with oil based cleanser first in the PM) I haven’t had any new spots. What I did have has died down. My cheeks are smooth so my highlighter sits nicer. For such a cheap product it is amazing on price point. The pump is easy to use. Sometimes I add a scrub to the cleanser for extra exfoliation. One word of advice though, it didn’t like my niacinamide-based moisturiser afterwards, it burned a bit so once I figured that out it was a dream to use. Make sure you moisturise well afterwards (I use a multi weight hyaluronic acid serum from Revolution). So if you’re battling breakouts, bumpy skin don’t hesitate and just buy it! You won’t regret it!!

Great product, awful pump

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The wash itself is great but as with other reviews, a brown liquid forms in the pump. Despite the response to a similar complaint, in my bottle I noticed it as it was actually running down the inside of the bottle to the product and then mixed with it. This probably has a lot of bacteria built up in it and is therefore posing a risk to customers using it. I'd love to buy it again if this is fixed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product a few months ago, at first I really liked it, it pretty much did what it’s supposed to do. Now the bottle is nearly empty so I opened it to get out the remaining product... under the lid in the pump is a disgusting brown fluid! I have also been having random break outs... I am very concerned about my skin.

Quite a nice cleanser

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with the consistency of this product, as I love a foamy cleanser. When I first put this on my face it felt very soft but became dry after the first use. I used this alongside the smoothing cream which made my skin burn. I tried this product without the smoothing cream and this resulted in a little reduction in the burning sensation.

This ruined my skin

Generally I have acne prone skin. During this whole pandemic my skin healed dramatically. My skin was feeling plump and healthy. A skincare specialist on Tiktok mentioned this product and it blew up. So I decided to try it. This cleanser in particular was targeted for people with acne prone skin who also have dry skin which I thought was perfect. But it broke me out sooooo much. Initially I thought my skin was just purging but the more i used it my skin was dry and I got loads of breakouts. Never again

MY FAVE CLEANSER

Been using this product religiously for over nearly a year. The time I ran out for a few weeks and stopped using it I started to get more acne again. Reusing again now and it’s still as good as ever. Leaves me with a lovely clean feeling that isn’t tight and uncomfortable like many cleansers I’ve tried before. I get bad hormonal acne On my chin and jaw and flaky dry skin around my cheeks And nose. This helps with both and I am a big fan. So affordable too! I’m 21 and a student so this is maybe one of the most important things haha.

Excellent cleanser

This really is a great cleanser. My skin feels really clean and smooth after use and it hasn’t irritated my skin in the slightest. Would definitely recommend!

My staple cleanser!

I got this cleaner to try tackle the texture on my forehead and let me tell you, it is the best skincare product I’ve ever tried! Within just over a week, my skin was so smooth and glowy! Also , after 6 months of using this cleaner, I can confidently say that my skin has honestly never been clearer. My face is completely smooth and I very rarely get spots anymore (except the odd 1 or 2 that are caused by that time of the month). I would recommend this product 100% !

Great budget option

This us a great budget cleanser. Non stripping, great ingredients and just does the job! Cerave are a great skincare brand and thus product in particular is great for people with acne prone or oily skin.

From bumpy to smooth!

I have used this product for around 6 weeks now, it has made a huge difference to my face. The salicylic acid gently dissolved all dead skin giving a brightening effect whilst the hyaluronic acid kept it hydrated. Will definitely continue to udmse this cleanser each night.

Cleared my skin in a matter of DAYS

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a few weeks ago when I was really struggling with under the skin bumps and outbreaks, within 3/4 days my skin is so soft and smooth (I paired with the SA moisturiser) and this will be my cleanser forever more !!

So smoothing!

Absolutely amazed at the quality of this product. I’ve tried so many cleansers to find the perfect one and this is it. Not only is it cheap, it does exactly what it says. I applied this to damp skin as instructed, gently massaging into my face. It lathered up into a gentle foam, without affecting my sensitive skin. Once removed, my face was left super smooth and glowing! It not only looked clean but it felt clean. I’ve only had a sample size of this so far but I will be purchasing the full price as soon as I need to, it’s worth every penny!

The best!!

I have tried a few different salicylic acid cleansers and they tend to dry out my skin. My skin is dry and sensitive and this in fact makes my skin hydrated. I would say cerave is the best drugstore brand for skincare.

Unexpectedly soothing and smoothing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] CeraVe is really popular in my country - that is Italy - and I was super excited to try it, especially now that I've been experienced a bad rush with pimples, blackheads and whiteheads. CeraVe SA Smoothing cleanser is a clear fluid with a low-foam level: it doensn't create too much foam so it doens't dries up my skin. I dislike its scent which is between neutral and synthetic, but I like the purified, clean and smooth sensation after washing my face. My face doens't show pimples but just some whieteheads on the jawline, CeraVe cleanser helped me considerably. My skin feel cleaner and not dry at all. My skin is less irritated, have less pimples and with cleaner pores.

Amazing results eradicating keratosis pilaris

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 13 year old daughter started using this once a week mixed in with the hydrating cleanser. She now uses it twice a week on its own and after 3 months her bumpy KP on both sides of her face has completely gone. Fantastic results and such an effective yet gentle cleanser when used carefully on teenage skin. I have sensitive, rosacea-prone skin and I use it twice a week too, on the other days I use the hydrating gel cleanser. PLEASE Cerave, my daughter would LOVE to be able to buy the SA body wash in the UK so she could get rid of the KP bumps all over her upper arms. Please bring it to the UK market!

Amazing smoothing cream!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample of this and I bought product and asked my Daughter to try it out. She suffers from cystic acne and scarring and has tried so many brands and products, antibiotics and medicated topical creams. She has been using this for less than a week and is already seeing an improvement to the texture of her skin. Her scarring is less visible and her skin feels so much smoother. Will definitely be purchasing the full size of this. At last something that works for her skin, Thank You so much!

Easy to use & left me feeling clean but not tight

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A nice unscented gel texture foaming face wash. It did not sting or feel uncomfortable, even around my eyes and although it left my skin feeling clean, it did not make my face feel tight. My one quibble would be that I would like it to foam a little more, although adding extra foaming agents may be detrimental to the overall efficacy of the product.

Blown away

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cleanser is amazing. I only use 3/4 times per week but can already see a difference. The lumpy, bumper texture has started to smooth considerably. Although this is a foaming cleanser it really does not dry your skin out at all. My monthly breakouts no longer seem ferocious and clear up within days. No more oily t zone mid morning. Don’t be scared of the word acid on the bottle. It really is gentle and kind to your skin.
