Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use CeraVe Blemish Control Facial Wash if I have sensitive skin?

Although this cleanser is designed to be gentle, it contains salicylic acid, which may be drying or irritating to sensitive skin. If you have sensitive skin, it's recommended to do a patch test before using it on your face. Start by using it less frequently and monitor your skin's response. If irritation occurs, discontinue use or consult your dermatologist for alternatives.

Is CeraVe Blemish Control Facial Wash suitable for all skin types?

CeraVe Blemish Control Facial Wash is designed for acne-prone and oily skin. If you have dry or normal skin, you may find it overly drying. CeraVe offers a range of cleansers specifically designed for different skin types, so it's best to try a product that best suits your skin's needs.

Can I use this wash with other acne treatments or products?

It's generally safe to use this cleanser with other acne treatments. However, combining multiple products with similar active ingredients (such as salicylic acid) can increase the risk of irritation. Consult your dermatologist for personalized guidance on incorporating multiple acne-fighting products into your routine.
