I'm so happy I got to trial the CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser. I have Keratosis Pilaris on my upper arms, and over the past few years it has gotten worse and started affecting my forearms too. I've been using the Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash just to see if the Salicylic Acid in it will help, but CeraVe blows that out of the water! Straight after the first application I noticed a difference upon getting out of the shower. The skin on my arms felt a little smoother and not at all dried out like I thought it would. The cleanser was very gentle on my skin and non irritating, not much of a scent that I could discern either. After multiple uses I can definitely see a difference and I'm extremely happy with the results. I'll be continuing to use this cleanser as it has managed to give me the opportunity to bare my arms again in public without being horribly embarrassed over the ugly bumps.

Reviews
The dinky bottle is just so cute! I love this size, it would be perfect if you were just going to use it on your face!
It's a very prescriptive looking label, like something you'd expect to find in the pharmacy, not the skin care aisle. That said, it's clear what it is and what it does.
Being CeraVe I was confident just to get stuck in, I used this on my face and body, really scrubbing it into my upper arms where the skin is red and bumpy.
There's not much to say about using it, it foams, it spreads and it isn't scented. I've been using it for 2 weeks I think and have experienced no tightness or irritation. But my face is more balanced, less oily, and my arms feel smoother.
I will be repurchasing in the biggest size possible.
I love this cleanser! It works makes your skin feel so soft! I use this as well as the Cream that goes with it, and the results are amazing! I really recommend that you try it you won’t regret it x It has no smell, but that doesn’t bother me :)
I'm in love with this cleanser. It's so gentle and not stripping in any way. I was looking for an exfoliator and, low and behold, this gel cleanser also has exfoliating properties! Salicylic acid works so well on my skin and I'm glad to see it here. I've been using this (as well as the smoothing cream) on my upper arms where I get KP and it's significantly reduced. The back of my legs is also reducing, just not completely gone. Overall my skin is *actually* smoother and clearer. I'm so impressed and can't wait to keep using it!
Tips: Use this alongside the CeraVe Smoothing Cream for best results. Great for acne and KP. Actually does what it says.
I've been using this cleanser for a week for the keratosis pilaris on my upper arms. It is a lovely, gentle cleanser that has a slight foaming effect, rinses off cleanly, and leaves my skin feeling nourished. It definitely has a moisturising, or moisture-protecting, element to it and does not dry out my skin at all. I've been using it together with the CeraVe SA Smoothing cream and have noticed a definitely reduction in dryness, bumps, and roughness of my skin, in just a week. I'm excited to have found products that can help with this problem as nothing else has made a difference. Would highly recommend.
I have pretty bad KP on my arms and thighs, and thought nothing would really get rid of it. I've used this for a while now in the shower as a bodywash, and it works!! My skin feels so soft and smooth!! And the CeraVe Smoothing Moisturizer that goes along with this is also amazing.
I use this cleanser as my first cleanse of the evening to remove make up or grime. I then follow this with a second cleanse using a different cleanser. I really like this cleanser, it's fragrance free and gentle on the skin. I don't feel any irritation after using it. The pump mechanism is super handy. Very affordable too. Highly recommend
I use this religiously in my skincare routine. I find it has not only helped clear my skin but it is smoother, more hydrated and actually feels clean. I use it every other day as I suffer from sensitive skin and I use it in conjunction with the CeraVe Foaming cleanser. I noticed my results after about a month of using my skincare routine
Tips: If you suffer from sensitive skin like me, use this cleanser every other day. That way it won’t be harsh on your skin, especially if you double cleanse :)
I love this cleanser, it’s a great foaming gel cleanser and lathers really well. It doesn’t dry out my skin, I have oily congested skin and this cleaner has made such a difference - my skin is so smooth and less congested I’ve definitely noticed a big change in my skin texture and will always use this cleanser now
Tips: I leave this cleanser on my face for an extra minute before I rinse it off, to allow the salicylic acid to penetrate and work deeper on my skin.
What a treat getting to try this product along with the moisturing cream. This cleanser come in a very generous sized pump bottle. Contains 3 essential ceramides, free from fragrance, alcohol, paraben and sulphate. I used this daily in the shower and found it refreshing and it left my skin feeling smooth, silky and gently exfoliated. This product can be used as an all over body cleanser and a little goes along way. Definitely be buying this again, I'm very impressed.
