Cetaphil Acne Relief Body Wash 16.9 fl oz — 2% Salicylic Acid, Fragrance-Free Hydrating Cleanser

Cetaphil Acne Relief Body Wash is a dermatologist-tested cleanser with 2% salicylic acid and an Advanced Moisture Blend to help clear and help prevent body breakouts while relieving dryness for sensitive skin.

This body wash combines maximum over-the-counter 2% salicylic acid with a moisture-rich formula so you can cleanse acne-prone skin without stripping it. The Advanced Moisture Blend—glycerin, shea butter and soybean oil—works to provide up to 24-hour relief from dryness while the salicylic acid gently exfoliates pores. Fragrance-free and formulated for sensitive skin, the wash is hypoallergenic and free of parabens, sulfates and synthetic dyes.

How does this body wash help reduce body acne?

The 2% salicylic acid works as a beta-hydroxy exfoliant that loosens dead skin and helps clear clogged pores, which can reduce blemishes and blackheads. Regular use helps manage the surface causes of breakouts while the formulation avoids harsh stripping agents.

• Contains OTC 2% salicylic acid—maximum non-prescription concentration.
• Gentle exfoliation removes dead skin cells and clears pores.
• Targets blemishes and blackheads on the chest, back and shoulders.
• Non-irritating base suitable for sensitive, acne-prone skin.

Will it dry out my skin if I have sensitive or dry areas?

It’s formulated specifically to minimize dryness while treating acne. The Advanced Moisture Blend—glycerin, shea butter and soybean oil—helps restore and lock in moisture so skin feels less tight after cleansing.

• Glycerin and shea butter provide hydration and skin barrier support.
• Offers up to 24-hour relief from dryness when used as directed.
• Fragrance-free and hypoallergenic to reduce irritation risk.
• Paraben- and sulfate-free, avoiding common drying surfactants.

How should I use Cetaphil Acne Relief Body Wash for best results?

Use during your normal shower routine on areas prone to acne, lathering and rinsing thoroughly. For skin compatibility, start with once daily and increase to twice daily as tolerated; follow any additional dermatologist directions for acne regimens.

• Apply to wet skin, work into a lather, then rinse completely.
• Begin with once daily; increase frequency if your skin tolerates it.
• Combine with spot treatments or topical products as advised by your dermatologist.
