I don't know what magic the people at cerave put in this cleanser but damn!, it clears my skin and prevent new acne from forming, if you have sensitive skin then be careful because it contains a high percentage of salicylic acid (2%) so don't leave it on your face for too long ,personally my sweet spot is 60 to 90 seconds , anything more than 90 seconds will irritate my skin and cause redness and Show more
