Thanks for the video, very helpful! The reason the acne cleanser has SA listed as an active ingredient isn’t because there’s more of it, it’s because it’s treating a medical condition (acne) while the other one isn’t purporting to serve a medical purpose. It’s possible and maybe even provable that there’s more SA in the acne cleanser, but we still don’t know for sure
Cerave’s Psoriasis line contains 2% salicylic acid. No one talks about these products but I find their Psoriasis line to be great body care products. P.S. I don’t have psoriasis but find them great for addressing texture issues.
I’ve been using the Psoriasis cleanser as my morning face wash for three years. I love it. Not only salicylic acid, but lactic acid, glycolic acid, urea, glycerin, niacinamide, ceramides. Really great stuff!
Yeah, the Cerave SA cleanser didn't work so great for me either. I tried the Inkey List SA cleanser, which is OK, but now I'm using Peach Slices SA (2%) cleanser (from CVS) which Dr. Dray recs & I kinda like that one now. It's light & doesn't irritate or dry me out at all.
If you have inflamed acne then use the CeraVe acne foaming cleanser that contains 4% benzoyl peroxide. Its meant for inflamed acne as the one with salicylic acid is meant for white heads and blackheads so it really won't help with cystic inflamed acne.
Just bought both of these 2 days ago. Not going to lie… I’m going to buy anything Cerave launches. They also have a Psoriasis 2% SA cleanser that nobody seems to talk about - been using that one for over a year with great results. (I don’t actually have psoriasis. I bought it for the 2% SA and other good ingredients.) I also loooove their packaging (except the random BP tube - ?? Where’s the pump bottle?) There is something calming and magical about the collection of all those perfectly rectangular bottles lined up waiting to take care of my skin. 🥰
The BP tube throws me off too! I do wanna try the psoriasis stuff now. My legs get super irritated from shaving and I tend to have eczema flare ups due to that so maybe it would be helpful. Bought Amlactin restoring body lotion which was an impulse buy but I really like that one. It has 15% lactic acid and some other great ingredients.
@@ellamierrose1812 Amlactin is great. Alpha Skincare is another great affordable line if your are looking to add glycolic acid to your routine. It is available at Ulta.
@@ellamierrose1812 @Anonymous65 Yes! I also love Amlactin Rapid Repair and Alpha products. I also use Alpha on my face for my AHA (fragrance free and gentle enough is always a winning combo). Sounds like we’re all on the same wavelength and found these hidden gems. 😊
I heard from a derm yesterday that because the Renewing SA Cleanser doesn't claim to control acne, they didn't have to have a drug label and separate the active from the inactive ingredients and also doesn't have to say how much sal. acid it has. Because the other two cleansers claim to help with acne, they tell the amount of the active ingredient.
@@Carlos-nz3vi This is true. If the % is under a certain amount, you don’t have to list the ingredient, but if the % is at the required amount or above for listing, the product has to disclose the amount on a drug label.
Perfect timing! I'm almost out of The Inkey List Salicylic Acid Cleanser and was looking for a new one. The old Cerave SA cleanser was too gentle for me and didn't really exfoliate, cleanse, or help with acne enough. I want to try this!
@@willbowen6237 I really liked it! I felt like it was deeply cleansing while non-stripping. My skin still felt soft and not too dry after washing. I have pretty resilient oily skin, so I could use it once or sometimes twice a day. I've been having a little bit of inflammatory/hormonal acne lately, so I just switched over to the other new Cerave cleanser with benzoyl peroxide (instead of BHA; BP tends to work better for red acne for me). That one is also nice and not too drying. I like that it's a cleanser so I don't have to worry about the BP bleaching my clothes and sheets. I've only been using it for less than a week though!
@@jolyrics6767 I don't have that much cystic acne -- sometimes I get 1 or 2 big pimples right before that time of the month. Mostly I get clogged pores, blackheads, and teeny tiny whiteheads. Oily skin problems lol
I've literally been looking for ANY review and comparison since I heard about this from Dr. Dray's video but couldn't find any... but of course here comes Abbey with the info we need! Thanks!
@@jereecain1726 I like it so far! It is slightly thinner (less viscous) and less "sticky" than The Inkey List SA Cleanser. It foams a little more, too. But it is not any more drying, at least on my oily skin. I also appreciate the stronger 2% BHA. My skin is very (too) tolerant of salicylic acid, so it has not caused irritation. I use it most mornings. I'm not expecting to see dramatic results from an exfoliant in wash-off cleansers.
I love Cera Ve. Idk why I ever spent so much on “high end” skin care brands before. This acne line is amazing and has helped me a lot with my sudden hormonal acne.
I'm struggling with sudden hormonal acne as well. I'd say it's moderate because it's persistent. I'm using regular cerave hydrating cream to foam cleanser and was using paulas choice 2% bha but I noticed it's kinda wrecking my skin. Which cerave products are you using exactly
The CeraVe Acne Foaming Cleanser + Differin Gel have changed my skin game. I sometimes put my CeraVe PM lotion before I put on my gel and that really helps me avoid irritation. And if I already have irritation, I just use the healing ointment to further protect those already sensitive areas.
What differin gel is that? I used Acne foaming cleanser but my skin is getting worse idk what to use now. I still use it and get breakouts everyday. 😢😢
@@smreetyrana-fw7dp it’s just called differin gel, it’s found in the acne products section. It use to be behind the counter years ago, but now you can purchase it without a prescription.
Agree with your review. I tried the new one and thought it would be identical to the Renewing Cleanser other than a higher SA, but it really feels a lot nicer once you lather it up.
My skin is generally more on the oily side but with having to constantly change my birth control pills due to my migraines and cluster headaches my skin changes with my pill changes. Recently I've been dealing with a lot of hormonal acne that the SA cleanser and normal to oily skin cleanser just cannot handle. So I picked up this new acne cleanser with BP and with just one wash my skin feels and looks better. I can't wait to see how it goes after a months use.
Nice review! I believe the reason SA is listed as an active ingredient in the Acne Control Cleanser is because the marketing/label is making a claim it will provide a specific result in controlling acne and therefore they need to specify which ingredients accomplish the claim. Two different representatives at CeraVe both disclosed when I called, the Renewing SA Cleanser contains 2% SA as well. I too was disappointed by the "foaming" with the Renewing and feel I use more product to compensate for the lack of foam.
I was really happy with the CeraVe BP cleanser. The gold standard is Panoxyl which is extremely drying. The CeraVe product is the most moisturizing BP product I’ve used (though it is still drying, it’s just the nature of the ingredient)
Thank you Abbey for such thorough reviews, as always! I really appreciate that you touched on the formula itself and pointed out that you can't just judge a product by the ingredient list. I think people are realizing that there is so much more to a product than just the ingredient label (see Liah Yoo and James Welsh's recent videos), and the second half of this video was super helpful because of that! 💜
Part of me really wants the new cleanser but part of me also knows the renewing SA cleanser is a smarter choice because I use it as a daily cleanser along side other treatments.
Is the SA cleanser okay to use daily? I feel like I've been told to only use it 1-2 times a week and so I use a gentle cleanser for the other days a week. I want a gentle, but effective cleanser because I still have plenty of breakouts...
@@rileyleavitt8171 If your skin can tolerate it, you can almost do anything. WIll always recommend starting slow, and get to know how your skin reacts. I find that the renewing SA cleanser from CeraVe is gentle enough for my skin for daily use since it's not a high concentration of SA (like abbey mention in the video) and really helps to keeps breakouts at bay. I prefer it because I use it as a preventative measure instead of a correction method post-breakout, and I don't have to keep track of when and how often I used a stronger product. I find the best most effective routine is a simple easy routine that I will do no matter how I feel that day or how busy I am.
Abbey your content never disappoints!! Loving the update and omg congrats on your frowning subscribers! I’ve been with you since like 10k and I couldn’t be more excited for you
I'm definitely going to try this cleanser. I won't use it all of the time because my skin is dry but I use Salicylic Acid for clogged pores and break outs on my face. I also use Salicylic Acid on my body for kp bumps and on my bikini area and thighs for ingrown hairs and on my legs for mild strawberry or chicken skin/shaving irratation so it definitely has its place in my skin care routine and in my shower as needed. Body care with adequate actives/chemical exfoliates are becoming more available but they are expensive. Abbey, I would love to see you compare this new cleanser to their Psoriasis Line. Cerve has a 2% Salicylic Acid cleanser in their Psoriasis line too. Thank you for doing this right away!! This is exciting news!
I love the foaming acne wash with BP in the morning. It works great for me. Every once in a while I will have to skip a day because I will get flaky but the majority of the time it works great. I have oily/combo skin. Ever since Dr. Dray said to not use BP and tret together I stopped using it at night. Maybe the new SA cleanser will be better to use before tret?
Omg thank you for pointing this out!! I swear my cerave and use like 6 of their products but I switched from the hydrating cleanser to the hydrating to roam and my skin has gone crazy! I also have ridiculously sensitive skin and I was so confused as to what was irritating my skin and sure enough salicylic acid is what my skin hates the most! :(
I used to love CeraVe Hydrating cleanser (no acne here, not for decades), but then they took out the parabens (I think parabens are great), adjusted the formula ... and now it burns. I don't trust any CeraVe products any more, and they had some good ones! Disclaimer: everyone's skin is different, so what burned me may be perfect for someone else. If a product works well, don't change.
Cerave has changed formulas in their washes and PM moisturizer. I feel the burn with the new formula and will need to switch to different brands. Many people have commented how CeraVe has messed up by changing formula
Abbey I love watching your videos for the organized content. I enjoy hearing your reviews on books as well; so you’re my favorite UA-camr for how well rounded your videos are on your channel. BUT you totally got a subscriber for life with that perfect The Office reference!!!
www.paulaschoice.com/ingredient-dictionary/plant-extracts/corn-oil.html?fdid=ingredient-dictionary&crefn1=name-first-letter&crefv1=C&csortb1=name&csortd1=1 That's a link to Paula's Choice Skincare Dictionary. I don't know much about corn oil in particular, but not all oils are bad (some can clog your pores, not all). Oils can act as an occlusive Layer to help with moisturizing your skin by trapping the water molecules in. That's why people will recommend using Rosehip SEED oil or Almond Oil or Jojoba Oil, etc. To me it seems Corn oil is one of the good ones based on this link, and at the end of the day, you are using it in a wash-off treatment with a chemical exfoliant in there so I really doubt it's going to clog your pores.
The SA cleanser is great for me but I'm so nervous to use it daily and over cleanse/strip my skin... and so I tried the Acne Foaming Cream cleanser with benzoyl peroxide but didn't notice that great of a difference :/ hoping to try these out and see some progress!!
So which one would you recommend for someone being really Oily? Would love to purchase & try it. I've been using Cetaphil for a long time but I need something that is foamier because the Cetaphil isn't foamy at all.
@@allnighterist I get the Cetaphil Normal to oily skin face wash and for some reason, it's working so well for my skin, when I use a different face wash I get breakouts, and as soon as I use the Cetaphil it just clears the skin in less than two days. Which Cerave should I use for the oily skin?
@@rejhane27 definitely the facial foaming cleanser from Cera ve I’ve used other brands but that one leaves me oil free the longest and is very gentle on the skin.
Thursday or Friday, makes no difference to me, I'll watch it lol Anyway question: how do you think the new cleanser compares to the La Roche Posay Effaclar medicated gel cleanser? It's been working well for me but I'm about to run out. Considering one of these from Cerave. Thanks!
When possible, can you review the new Cetaphil Gentle Clear Cleanser? I’ve seen it at Target with a new Mattifying Acne Moisturizer. The cleanser says it also features 2% salicylic acid plus aloe while the moisturizer has .5% SA. These are the first 2 Cetaphil products that caught my eye.
You are not using the SA Cleanser correctly thats why. Try it with a face cleansing sponge of some sort not your fingers. My face foams up when i use the SA.
Dr dray did a video on this the other day. And cerave new SA wash. I only see Target with them. Not cvs, ulta or walgreens yet. And I guess Amazon, but prices are higher, when I checked. But, faster delivery.
Hey Abbie, they have another new product in this line….. it’s a bha and aha leave on treatment. Can you please make a video about it. I love how you go deep into the information and your opinion. Thanks in advance! Edit: lol I just saw the ending of the video. Haha commented too soon lol
Girl! This is crazy! Last night before I fell asleep I was thinking about how I was ready to switch back to a 2% salicylic acid face wash (I used to use the PTR one) now that my skin is acclimated to my Tretinoin cream! so thank you for uploading this early! We seem to have very similar skin so I really appreciate your recommendations:) Do you think the creamy formula would work well with a FOREO Luna? Also, for anyone wondering, 2% SA is a whole different ballgame than a cleanser with the “standard” amount! It’s sooooooo much more effective. I’m deathly allergic to Benzoyl Peroxide so I’m happy they came out with 2 different options.
I found the cerave SA cleanser irritating on meh skin surprisingly. Good for my body but horrible for my face. It's actually put me off trying their other cleansers on my face unfortunately. I'm super oily, easily congested, but also very sensitive :/ x
It's cause it has corn oil in it so you're right .. same happened to me the foaming cleanser is better and a salt lid acid product once or twice a week
Just trying to find an alternative since i have fragrance issue but have been using garnier pure active for over 10 years because using other products didn't cleanse my skin or triggered reactions. And obviously skincare has changed a lot in that period of time. So it's good to know that salicylic acid deffo works for me.
Discovered your channel about a week ago while searching for solutions to sudden hormonal breakouts after stopping birth control. Do you have any recommendations for acne rosacea? I think that is what is happening to my skin.
So sorry to hear that 😞 Tretinoin has been my holy grail product for acne for years! I have a UA-cam video sharing an update on my hormonal acne favorites
Hi Abbey! Could you review Calia Natural's haircare products? theyre marketed as all natural so I'm wondering if they work as well as their non natural counterparts. Their purifying line and intensive conditioner are the most popular. Thank you!!
Can you do your latest skincare routines am pm including tretenoin use. Interested to know which products you stick to using after reviewing so many different ones.
I've been using the foaming cleanser for two months with retinol and it's fine, but do you think it'll be much better when I replace the retinol with an acne conrole a set number of times a week with a foaming cleanser?
Thank u i was curious bout it cuz the acne foaming cleaner didnt work for me n made it worst. Bp makes my skin worst! I didnt wanted to but the new acne cleanser if it had bp in it
I have not had luck with cerave cleansers removing sunscreen and I use the cerave sunscreen. Do these work for that? I am considering getting an oil cleanser for the first step since nothing I do gets my sunscreen off.
for hairs, i think fragrance is fine unless you are allergic or your skin is highly sensitive to it. for fragranced i would recommend OGX but if fragrances absolutely can’t be in the formula then i have no idea. fragrance is in everything nowadays.
Uploading a day early for this breaking news!!!!! 😉 but also… do we prefer Thursday uploads instead of Friday?
Yes
Thursday uploads def sound fun and fresh!
I prefer Thursday uploads.
Abbey, pls do another self-tan showdown with the MineTan Luxe Oil Self Tan Foam, MineTan Violet vs Caramel + the SoSu Dripping Gold!

No one is talking about the fact that the OG SA Cleanser has corn oil and the new one doesn’t
Right? I think that is a huge difference. Dermatologists tend to recommend going oil-free for those who are acne prone.

@@allnighterist I get the Cetaphil Normal to oily skin face wash and for some reason, it's working so well for my skin, when I use a different face wash I get breakouts, and as soon as I use the Cetaphil it just clears the skin in less than two days. Which Cerave should I use for the oily skin?
@@rejhane27 definitely the facial foaming cleanser from Cera ve I’ve used other brands but that one leaves me oil free the longest and is very gentle on the skin.
@@Amyguzman773 Thank you so much, I will definitely pick it up this week.
@@rejhane27 yeah of course lmk how it goes for you.
What cleanser will be good for oily to combination skin and bump+ clog pores( whitehead, blackhead)??
Thursday or Friday, makes no difference to me, I'll watch it lol Anyway question: how do you think the new cleanser compares to the La Roche Posay Effaclar medicated gel cleanser? It's been working well for me but I'm about to run out. Considering one of these from Cerave. Thanks!
When possible, can you review the new Cetaphil Gentle Clear Cleanser? I’ve seen it at Target with a new Mattifying Acne Moisturizer. The cleanser says it also features 2% salicylic acid plus aloe while the moisturizer has .5% SA. These are the first 2 Cetaphil products that caught my eye.
Will be featuring this on my Tik Tok soon and will add to my list to show here 😊
@@AbbeyYung awesome, looking forward to it!
There's so many cerave products i want to try!
You are not using the SA Cleanser correctly thats why. Try it with a face cleansing sponge of some sort not your fingers. My face foams up when i use the SA.
The old one has corn oil in it and it’s only 0.5% BHA in it whereas the new one is 2% BHA and oil free. It’s obvious which one is superior 💁🏽♀️
I noticed the 2 had similar ingredients which cases me to look up videos. So I appreciate your video!
We need a make up/daily skin care routine please!!!!!
Will add to my list 😊
Dr dray did a video on this the other day. And cerave new SA wash. I only see Target with them. Not cvs, ulta or walgreens yet.
And I guess Amazon, but prices are higher, when I checked. But, faster delivery.
What is a good moisturizer from cereva to use with sensitive and acne prone skin?
Hey Abbie, they have another new product in this line….. it’s a bha and aha leave on treatment. Can you please make a video about it. I love how you go deep into the information and your opinion. Thanks in advance!
Edit: lol I just saw the ending of the video. Haha commented too soon lol
Yes, the Cerave Skin Renewing Nightly Exfoliating Treatment
I am typically alergic to BP. I tried the cleanser anyways . I can use short contact therpy. 🎉
Girl! This is crazy! Last night before I fell asleep I was thinking about how I was ready to switch back to a 2% salicylic acid face wash (I used to use the PTR one) now that my skin is acclimated to my Tretinoin cream! so thank you for uploading this early! We seem to have very similar skin so I really appreciate your recommendations:) Do you think the creamy formula would work well with a FOREO Luna? Also, for anyone wondering, 2% SA is a whole different ballgame than a cleanser with the “standard” amount! It’s sooooooo much more effective. I’m deathly allergic to Benzoyl Peroxide so I’m happy they came out with 2 different options.
Do you use it everyday?
@@jolyrics6767 If you don’t have *extremely* oily skin it would prob be too aggressive for everyday use.
You should do a video about double cleaning, oil and balm cleansers!
Thank you for such informative videos on the best products out there! any idea when the olaplex v k18 vid will be up?
Great review! What do you think of the Aveeno Clear Conplexion Daily Cleansing Pads, have you used them?
Excited for the 2% salicylic acid cleanser ..
Hey
Can we use this product instead sope ??
Which one would be best for dry skin?
renewing SA, it is gentler and has corn oil
I found the cerave SA cleanser irritating on meh skin surprisingly. Good for my body but horrible for my face. It's actually put me off trying their other cleansers on my face unfortunately. I'm super oily, easily congested, but also very sensitive :/ x
It's cause it has corn oil in it so you're right .. same happened to me the foaming cleanser is better and a salt lid acid product once or twice a week
Just trying to find an alternative since i have fragrance issue but have been using garnier pure active for over 10 years because using other products didn't cleanse my skin or triggered reactions. And obviously skincare has changed a lot in that period of time. So it's good to know that salicylic acid deffo works for me.
Wow Abbey, you are soo speed like light.. proud 💪💪
Which type of cleanser I used for my skin...my skin is oily
Discovered your channel about a week ago while searching for solutions to sudden hormonal breakouts after stopping birth control. Do you have any recommendations for acne rosacea? I think that is what is happening to my skin.
So sorry to hear that 😞 Tretinoin has been my holy grail product for acne for years! I have a UA-cam video sharing an update on my hormonal acne favorites
Hi Abbey! Could you review Calia Natural's haircare products? theyre marketed as all natural so I'm wondering if they work as well as their non natural counterparts. Their purifying line and intensive conditioner are the most popular. Thank you!!
Hi! Can you still use a toner after using cerave acne control cleanser?? Thank!
is this cleanser oil free acne control cleanser
Ha ha the drama 🎭🤣🤣🤣. Love the SA for my “mature” skin. Esp when I have a bit of Tret flaking. Thanks for the review Abbey💜
As always thanks for your thorough review!
Of course 😊
My son is using crave 3 weeks and I think his acne is getting worst

Please can you use Cerave Acne foaming cleanser and Cerave Sa smoothing cleanser please reply me😢
Can you do your latest skincare routines am pm including tretenoin use. Interested to know which products you stick to using after reviewing so many different ones.
I’ll add this to my list!
Can you use the cerave acne control cleanser and a vitamin c serum?
This video helped a lot! Thank you ❤
I've been using the foaming cleanser for two months with retinol and it's fine, but do you think it'll be much better when I replace the retinol with an acne conrole a set number of times a week with a foaming cleanser?
Just bought the new cleanser! Looking forward to your review 🤗🤗❤️❤️
Hope you love it!
@@AbbeyYung thank you! And what is going on with the cerave healing ointment? Can't find it anywhere! At least in the jar. Only tubes available.
Is it only available at Target and Amazon?
@@miastringer7674 only the tube not the tub
Is this oil free? ☺️
Can the Cerave Acne Control Cleanser rinse off thoroughly sunscreen stains?
Is it over drying to the skin is it oil free the cleaner
can i use the SA cleanser with the glycolic acid toner from the ordinary? i have a mix of acne and dark spots
The SA renewal has corn oil in it. Is that something that will cause breakouts ?
Hii which one you will recommend for ance scars and for acne face
Cool Cerave cleaning review, Abbey!❤️
Thanks for the comparison. I have newly bought the old SA cleanser. 😂 which light are you actually using for filming?
Thank u i was curious bout it cuz the acne foaming cleaner didnt work for me n made it worst. Bp makes my skin worst! I didnt wanted to but the new acne cleanser if it had bp in it
Can dry combo skin use regularly this CeraVe blemish control cleanser?
So, what’s the best skincare for acne with blackheads?
The Salicylic Acid one!
@@daniela-xf7kz they both have SA…
Hii, I wanna ask you if I have a sensitive skin what’s souts me? Morning and evening? Plus I have fingel acne and black heads. Thanks 😊
not sure if they did change the ingredients in the cerave acne foaming, but i'm reading my box and it doesn't match the ingredients in your video.
Do you use the new one in the am or pm? I use trentinoin at night so I'm thinking this would be in the am but I don't know.
Unfortunately, it’s very Hard to get these products in Europe!
I have not had luck with cerave cleansers removing sunscreen and I use the cerave sunscreen. Do these work for that? I am considering getting an oil cleanser for the first step since nothing I do gets my sunscreen off.
Do you have an update to this?
Right on time😭 im in target and u posted less than 30 mins ago
What did Canada say the SA concentration is in the SA renewal cleanser?
I can’t find the new one anyyyywhere
I was waiting for this review.
Can I use one of them with tretinion 0.05% ?
Please answer me ):
Interesting... so does the Canadian version already have 2% already in our version
The acne foaming one is way too harsh on my face 😩😩
I didn't know there was an acne cleanser 😲
Hi Abbey do you have any recommendations for lightweight fragrance free leave in conditioners/moisture mists/sprays?
for hairs, i think fragrance is fine unless you are allergic or your skin is highly sensitive to it. for fragranced i would recommend OGX but if fragrances absolutely can’t be in the formula then i have no idea. fragrance is in everything nowadays.
Vs inkey list salicylic acid cleanser?
Thanks Abbey!!
I love your passion!!!
In Canada, what was the CeraVe Renewing SA Cleanser Salicylic Acid Percentage disclosed as?
0.5%
