Cerave Acne Foaming Cream Cleanser vs. Cerave SA Renewing Cleanser Comparison Review- Salicylic Acid

[@ninajoeckel6255]

The first cerave product I bought was the foaming cream cleanser , and it cleared my skin in almost 2 weeks

[@sofiag2685]

How often do you use it

[@ninajoeckel6255]

Sofia G I use it almost every night .

[@boredwby6639]

Wish I could say the same . I bought it and it made me break out a little . :(

[@AbbeyYung]

Wow 🙌🏻

[@tree3y763]

Vanisha Joseph how long is that phase?

[@kivs3007]

*Anybody that says the SA cleanser or BP cream cleanser aren’t working enough:* Make sure you are lathering it on your skin and then letting it sit on the skin for at least 2-3 minutes (brush your teeth while waiting to easily pass the time) and then rinse it off, this helps the Salicylic acid or Benzoyl peroxide to dive deep into the skin barrier and get to work where if your were to just rinse it off right away it wasn’t given enough contact time to do its job. Dr.Dray a board certified dermatologist here on KZbin has mentioned this explanation as a potential reason as to why many people don’t seem to have as good of results as they expected when using wash off bha’s/aha’s. Facial cleansers that contain these ingredients are great for people with sensitive skin that’s also acne prone..as they target the problem with causing the least amount of irritation if any, unlike a topical bha or aha leave on cream,gel,liquid that can cause irritation because of its strength and being left on for the directed time (at least 8hrs).

[@haleymoon657]

The SA cleanser is ALWAYS in my shower I use it probably 4 times a week and I really feel like especially after working out it just helps clear the oil and sweat out of my pores. Definitely have a reduction of black heads since I started using it as well.

Both are great for targeting acne! Put these cleaners on the face and leave on for 1-2 minutes and then rinse for maximum results!

[@elvinrmrz8076]

1-2 minutes is a tad bit too much, there’s a risk of stripping the skins moisture barrier, 30-45 seconds is good enough

[@clairekennedy8767]

elvin rmrz they are not stripping. They don’t use harsh soap.

@@kellyherrera1324 the green one, for normal to dry skin

[@mahbtiu]

If you notice, salicylic acid is not the super star acid in the SA cleanser, but Gluconolactone, which is a polyhydroxy acid or PHA. It's very similar to AHAs, except it's more gentle and hydrating. Gluconolactone is 6th in the ingredient list while salicylic acid is 16th, so I suppose that's why this cleanser is more gentle than other cleansers that have 2% salicylic acid.

[@jamesle7180]

I've been using the SA cleanser and it does a good job cleansing, it's just not helping with my acne. Might try the BP cleanser

[@musical_keys_]

I have slightly sensitive skin and this 4% BP doesn't irriate my skin! In the past I've used OXY Maximum Strength 5% BP and I would always get some irritation, which made me surprised that I have gotten any irritation from CeraVe's 4% BP. I have been using CeraVe's BP for about 3 weeks and I love it. Though I've used BP for about 5 years now, I've never had any bleaching, I think this is because I use it in the shower. That way it really rinses everything off! Amazing video as always Abbey! I honestly didn't know it had Glycolic acid in it! (I also use Differin gel which I alternate on other nights)

[@AbbeyYung]

Yes higher than 4% gets iffy for me too! Smart to use in the shower... I should try this

[@rashasarandah1695]

Is it still helping your acne? I’m deciding between the two

@@rashasarandah1695 Yep! It's been helping my acne alot! But I also use Differin on the days that I don't use CeraVe's BP so that's also been helping

[@tonyblanco1681]

Great vid, however you cant use prescription tretinoin and benzoyl peroxide since it deactivates the tretinoin I dont know about retinol. Dr.dray has a vid on it so I would really differentiate that since it can cause people to lose the effectiveness of their retin-a.

[@AbbeyYung]

Interesting, I’ve seen other dermatologists state otherwise- and also read a research study that concluded degradation of Tretinoin does not always happen with BP. I think the percentages and types of products used plays a role. But I’m curious to hear her thoughts too!

[@madisonsheffield7325]

Michelle Kay thank you so much!

[@rashasarandah1695]

Which do you think you’d prefer? Which is more effective but not as stripping?

[@jusme2888]

Oh no, I use the SA cleanser about once per week but based on your video I think I've been using it all wrong. Firstly I use differin gel a few nights per week. I also use Good Genes a few nights per week (different nights from Differin of course). Since lactic acid exfoliates the surface, i still incorporate Cerave SA to get deep in the pores. But I use differin gel on my SA night. Idk why, I just thought it would do double duty by going into a squeaky clean pore and working its magic. But my face has felt dry lately. And I'm getting small breakouts here and there. I thought that maybe its bc I might have too many things in rotation but it might be the combo of differin & SA. In the mornings I alternate between drunk elephant c firma serum one day and niacinamide + zinc pca the next. Too much?? And yes, i use bucket loads of sunscreen lol

Ahhh I know what you mean it can be so hard to pinpoint what isn’t agreeing with your skin!!

Hey, so I was prescribed hydroquinone 4% by my doctor. How should I use that with differin gel?

[@tonyblanco1681]

Look up a video with dr.dray she shows the exact way to do it

[@mellowmartita]

Use a dot of hydroquinone as a spot treatment/on dark spots ONLY. It's a bleaching/lightening agent so it can cause hypopigmentation which is skin lighter than it should be (bleached).

[@mellowmartita]

Also just like your differin which you should be using a thin layer of at night only use hydroquinone at night and wear sunscreen every morning.

A little late to comment... the glycolic acid in that cleanser probably works as a humectant :-) Since it's a cleanser, the pH is too high for it to work as an exfoliant. My guess is that it was added to offset the dryness that can happen with a benzoyl peroxide product.

@@BrickLayerBoy hey! i usually only get whiteheads, but i occasionally get very little blackheads on my nose. i actually stopped using the cream cleanser and i am now using a new skincare line called 302 recommended by my dermatologist. it’s made of very natural ingredients with no chemicals or anything in it and it is also working very well for my skin. i am also using a LED light called lightstim and it basically gets rid of all the bacteria causing the acne from the inside and also helps inflammation. i found out that i have rosacea so because of that, my skin is always red and i get little tiny whiteheads all over my skin.

[@BrickLayerBoy]

@@laraagracee thanks for the reply, i am not an expert at this but my basic understanding is that, the oil that gets produced causes pores to get blocked and that leads to whiteheads, i get 1 or 2 at the time and mostly small and easy to deal with, my Dermatologist recommended me to use Eucerin DermaPure, i wash my face with it when I wake up and before I go to sleep, or just whenever i feel like there is enough oil on my face to be removed, this somehow helped to hold them back and when they appear they are much smaller than usual. The 400ml bottle is getting empty soon so I thought I might try something new that specifically targets oil on the face and that's why I am gonna try CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser this time and see if it works better. Btw that LED LightStim looks interesting, I didn't know such things exist. But I wasn't satisfied with the comments about it on internet, I know it can be different from person to person.

New sub! Your KZbin came up on google when I typed foaming vs sa in the search 👋🏼

ohhh wait I love hearing that! Welcome I'm so glad to have you here!

I have cystic acne on my cheeks and fungal acne on my forehead. Which of the two should work for me? 😢

[@keving1836]

We have the exact same issue omg. I’ve being trying the SA cleanser for a while now, I’ve seen mild changes. I went out and bought the foaming cream cleanser today so I’m gonna try it for a while, I can let you how it goes if you’d like!

[@KathValencia13]

@@keving1836 i've been using the acne foam cleanser for 2 weeks now and i noticed how quickly my pimples come to head and there are also zits appearing in areas i usually get acne so i guess my skin's purging. also want to try the SA one but i used a product once with salicylic in it and it broke me out 🙁 im traumatized. i'll just settle on the foam cleanser for now 😊 anyway, goodluck with that!! hope we achieve clear skin soon! claiming it💕

[@madisonkoskiven605]

I have the same problem ! I've been using the CeraVe SA cleanser for a while and it works for fungal on forehead, but the cystic on my cheeks is pretty much the same

[@mary-jk9ye]

What is a good for your skin ?

[@LeopardGeckoTree]

If I have oily skin with mild acne, blackheads on my nose, and a whitehead or two along with a red pimple on my face, should I go for the SA renewing cleanser or Acne Foaming Cleanser?

[@griffin1837]

what is better for clearing current acne rather than preventing future breakouts?

[@AbbeyYung]

Depends on what kind of breakouts you have! They can both help with existing breakouts

I’ll add it to my list!

Abbey Yung thank u so so much!!!💕💕

[@sierra2538]

is it good for the skin when using the Acne foaming wash three times a day? i use it three times every week, because in the morning, and i use it after school (i wear masks all days), and night time before bed. i don’t think it’s good for my skin but wearing masks also break out the bottom of my face :((

[@michelleyeh7230]

thank you for the info, very useful!!!!!

So happy to help!!

[@manjinderkhera6193]

If u use the SA in the am and the foaming in the pm, what do you guys use with them, ordinary, moutiziers, retinoids, etc?

[@kmmangali]

Can i use salicylic acid cleanser with a benzoyl peroxide spot treatment

[@alma4teal]

I’ve seen recommendations on using both like you mentioned. SA as an overall cleanser with BP as a spot treatment. Here’s the website if you’d like to check it out: www.healthline.com/health/beauty-skin-care/salicylic-acid-vs-benzoyl-peroxide#can-you-use-both-at-the-same-time?

[@samkreidie416]

it depends on your skin, it might be irritating/drying....but i personally do this same thing every night and i dont experience any negative effects.

[@anthonytorres3927]

Sam Kreidie wait so u use the sa cleanser along with the acne foaming cream cleanser at the same time

[@samkreidie416]

@@anthonytorres3927 I use the sa cleanser first, then use a benzoyl peroxide/clindamycin spot treatment on active breakouts after i cleansed.

Absolutely!

[@paulineross3673]

Thank you 😊

[@risasilvers9666]

When it comes to moisturizing ingredients in face washes (such as HA and ceramides) , how effective can they really be if we are washing it off? Is it similar to how SA can penetrate the skin with enough contact time? Thanks 😊

Hi! I have an oily skin with a lot of acne on jawline and around cheeks. Is cerave renewing sa cleanser a right product for me?. Can you please recommend. XOXO💜

[@AbbeyYung]

I wouldn't be able to say which will work best for you, everyone's skin is different. I'd recommend seeing a derm for skin specific needs xoxo

[@lizbeth.c6734]

hi abbey ive used both of those cleansers and i didnt like the cream cleanser at all. i might give the sa cleanser a try about i do have active breakouts at the moment. i want a fragrance free bha cleanser becuase im using neutrogena bha fave wash in the Pink bottle but i dont like it since its really fragranced . thsnks for your vídeos abbey plz make a best walmart skincare for us that use Tretnoin/retin a😉

[@AbbeyYung]

Bummer that didn’t workout for you! Fragrance free is a great choice when dealing with breakouts. Walmart doesn’t carry Tretinoin or Retin-A. This is something you need a dermatologist prescription for!

[@lizbeth.c6734]

@@AbbeyYung oh no i get my Tretnoin from my dermatologist . i meant to say if you can make a favorites skincare products from walmart to use when using Tretnoin

[@rashasarandah1695]

I was deciding between these two. I’m on Tretinoin and have similar concerns. I hear the zapzyt SA one is good but I get deep acne lately and thinking the BP one would help More. Why didn’t you like it? What have you found that works for you?

[@samanthaneuah]

Would you suggest using the SA cleanser in the AM and the foaming cleanser at night? I’m using curology at night as well

[@AbbeyYung]

You can definitely do that!

[@jocelyneortiz2001]

which one would help fungal acne and a little bit of breakouts?

[@dbnd2240]

The SA Skin Renewing Cleanser (gel vehicle) made me break out, so I used it as a body cleanser until it was gone.

[@AbbeyYung]

Such a bummer!

[@rashasarandah1695]

Any other cleanser you prefer that works for you?

[@kainatkawsar565]

Could be purging since it’s SA

[@dbnd2240]

Rasha Sarandah I like Zapzyt’s SA. I also like vanicream gentle facial cleanser, Cerave’s hydrating cleanser (which isn’t for everyone), and urban skin ex’s even tone bar (I believe I typed in the names of brand and it’s product correctly - see Dr Dray’s recent videos, she mentions it).

[@hannahfaith3198]

What would be better to use this CERAVE ACNE FOAMING CREAM CLEANSER or Cerave SA Renewing Cleanser? I have this bumps on my forehead since I was in High School... :( I have sensitive and Oily Skin...

[@paripatel4271]

which one should I use if I have dry textured skin with a few oily places like my nose? (mostly have dry skin)

[@AbbeyYung]

SA cleanser will be a better fit 😊

[@jaclynnguyen6098]

so if i have both of the cleansers, do i just use foaming cleanser at night & the SA cleanser in the morning? or is that too over stripping? & can i use it everyday for both cleansers

[@AbbeyYung]

You can do that! Everyone’s skin is different so I wouldn’t be able to say how yours will respond 😊 maybe start off trying that a few times a week instead of daily to see how it responds initially!

[@soralasilber9737]

Does it help with blackheads and can it clog your pores because it’s not oil free

[@debanhivillalpando6933]

Hi, I recently started a new routine and I wanted to ask if there are any conflicts using the Cerave SA cleanser with the Ordinary niacinamide 10% and Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5. Are they safe to use together?
