Clearasil Stubborn Acne Control 5in1 Exfoliating Wash is a daily facial cleanser with 2% salicylic acid and exfoliating beads designed to reduce blocked pores, excess oil, blackheads, acne marks and pimple size in one step.

This maximum-strength face wash combines a proven acne medicine—2% salicylic acid—with physical exfoliating beads and a targeted formula to address five common acne concerns in a simple cleansing routine. It’s designed for everyday use on face and neck to clear impurities, remove excess oil, and help keep pores free from buildup. The product comes in a 6.78 fl oz tube and is formulated to be used once to three times daily according to tolerance and directions.

How quickly will I see results using this Clearasil wash?

Visible changes can occur as you reduce surface oil and clear clogged pores; many users notice smoother texture and less shine after several uses. Breakouts and marks can take longer to fade because skin renewal varies person to person.

• Active acne medication: 2% salicylic acid to help unclog pores.
• Exfoliating beads: remove dead skin cells for faster surface renewal.
• Use frequency: rinse one to three times daily as tolerated.
• Consistency: steady use helps maintain clearer-looking skin.

Can this wash be used on sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The formulation is a maximum-strength acne wash, so those with sensitive skin should introduce it gradually and avoid combining with other strong actives without guidance. If irritation, excessive dryness, or redness occur, reduce frequency or pause use and consult a dermatologist.

• Start slow: begin with once daily or every other day.
• Avoid eye area and broken skin to prevent stinging.
• Complement with a gentle moisturizer to counter dryness.
• Stop use if severe irritation develops and seek professional advice.

How should I include this cleanser in my skincare routine?

Use the wash as the cleansing step—wet face, lather a small amount onto skin, massage gently, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with a non-comedogenic moisturizer and daily SPF when using during daytime to protect renewed skin.

• Cleansing: wet face, lather, massage, rinse warm water.
• Timing: one to three times daily depending on skin tolerance.
• Follow-up: apply moisturizer; use sunscreen during the day.
• Do not combine with other exfoliating or irritating treatments without care.

What does the "5in1" claim cover and what ingredients support it?

The 5in1 claim refers to benefits targeting blocked pores, pimple size, excess oil, acne marks, and blackheads. Those effects come from the 2% salicylic acid acne medication working chemically and the physical exfoliating beads helping to slough away surface debris.

• Salicylic Acid (2.0%): acne medication to help clear pores.
• Exfoliating beads: gently buff skin surface to reveal smoother texture.
• Oil-reducing formula: helps reduce shine and buildup.
• Regular use: supports the appearance of fewer blackheads and marks.

Who is this for: Clearasil Stubborn Acne Control 5in1 Exfoliating Wash is suited for teens and adults with oily or acne-prone skin who want a single-step, over-the-counter acne treatment and exfoliating cleanser. It’s intended for those who can tolerate a maximum-strength salicylic acid product and who are looking to address multiple common blemish concerns in their daily routine. If you have very dry or reactive skin or are on prescription acne treatments, check with a healthcare professional before adding this cleanser to your regimen.
