Cetaphil SA Gentle Exfoliating Face Wash, Salicylic Acid Cleanser, 8oz | Foaming Face Wash, Salicylic Acid, Acne-Prone And Sensitive Skin, All Skin Types, Dermatologist Recommended, 8 Oz Pump

If you've been using Cetaphil's classic Gentle Skin Cleanser and feel like it just isn't doing enough for your skin, this Gentle Exfoliating SA Cleanser is the perfect next step. It maintains everything that makes Cetaphil a trusted brand — the mild, non-irritating formula, suitability for sensitive skin, and dermatologist backing — while adding the exfoliating power that many people need for a truly thorough cleanse. The Salicylic Acid (SA) in the formula provides gentle chemical exfoliation that helps clear out clogged pores, remove dead skin buildup, and smooth skin texture over time. Unlike physical scrubs that can be abrasive, this one works without any harsh gritty sensation. The foaming gel lathers nicely and rinses clean, leaving skin feeling fresh and noticeably smoother without any tightness or dryness afterward. I made the switch after feeling like my regular gentle cleanser wasn't addressing my skin texture and occasional breakouts effectively enough. The difference was noticeable within the first week of consistent use — my skin looked cleaner, felt smoother, and my pores appeared less congested. It's suitable for daily use and doesn't over-strip the skin, which was my concern when switching to a cleanser with an active ingredient. The 16 oz pump bottle is great value and very convenient for daily use at the sink. The pump dispenses a controlled amount so the product lasts a long time. Highly recommended for anyone who loves Cetaphil but wants more cleansing efficacy, or for anyone with oily, combination, or congestion-prone skin looking for a gentle but effective daily cleanser with exfoliating benefits.

Been using this since it arrived last week. So far loving it. No skin irritation, non greasy and made my face smooth and effective. I don't have problem with the pump ever. Smooth and smell great. Recommended to those want to took off stress bump on face just like me. Highly recommended. Will update my review after months if my bumps gone 😍

UPDATE UPDATE: IT IS NOW JULY 17TH, 2026 & I'M JUST NOW GOING TO RESTOCK THIS. I BOUGHT THIS FEBRUARY 13TH, 2026. IT EASILY LASTED 4 MONTHS BETWEEN 2 ADULTS USING IT UP TO 4 TIMES A WEEK. THERE'S STILL SOME LEFT IN THE BOTTLE. OVERALL GREAT WASH ILL CONTINUE TO USE THIS AND IT KEEPS MY SENSITIVE SKIN CLEAN AND CLEAR UPDATE: It's been almost a month and between my husband and I both using it 2 times sometimes 3 times a week we've only used a quarter of the bottle! I'd say this could probably last up to three months depending how often and how much you use. I highly suggest! I just recently started using this and I love it!. It's super gentle on my face and it makes my face feel nice and refreshed. It doesn't really have a smell to it. At least I don't think so. I think it just smells like soap. I don't really see this foaming up in any way as I've rubbed it between my hands and on my face and I've never really seen any bubbles lather up. It's almost like a Milky color and you don't really need a lot to feel like it works. I had a lot of acne when I first bought this and after using it for a little bit I've noticed all of my acne is gone. It's really cleared up my face and I have super sensitive skin. Anything will break me out and make me oily. It doesn't dry out my face but I like to pair it with a rose water witch hazel toner to close off my pores and remove any leftover impurities in my skin. It leaves my skin feeling super soft and vibrant. It definitely exfoliates your face. I probably use it two times a week so I'm unsure how long a bottle will last me.

I have sensitive skin and this gentle exfoliating SA cleanser is the only product I can use that don't irritate my skin. My skin is clearly and softer there no fragrance and it's highly effective to achieve so vibrant skin your getting your value worths it's a must have

I've used 2% SA before and it burned my skin something awful. My skin is so sensitive from decades of sun damage and skin trauma. It is extremely sensitive. Luckily the other major brand was unavailable so I purchased the Cetaphil 8oz then realized the 16oz is a better deal. Tried to cancel but too late so I ordered the 16oz anyway because it said it would arrive next day also and I could refuse or return the 8oz. Well a few hours after purchasing the 16oz the delivery time changed to 2 days and I needed it next day so when the 8oz arrived early in the morning the next day I took the hand off from delivery because that's how much I need that extra kick from the SA before hyaluronic acid and then moisturizing right after use. No fragrance at all but that doesn't mean it has no smell to it. These are chemicals in a plastic container but it's hardly noticeable. This one did not burn or irritate my face whatsoever like the 2% but you can tell whatever the amount it's very effective. It's cost less then other like products and one drop from a perfectly functional pump bottle on wet hands foams right up. A little does go a long way. I also applied a little more than a drop to a wet face, head and neck. Immediately helped clean off any impurities from skin and it washes right off. I use it before shower just makes things so much easier. I will also keep the 16oz because I know it works great and it doesn't irritate. I took off 1 star because I paid like over 50% more for the 8oz and couldn't cancel because it was "in transit" and shipping date changed for the 16oz. Cetaphil has become my goto brand. The pump bottles work great compared to the squeeze because it's so much easier to control the amount you dispense. When it gets low I just mix in a little bottled water to get it all out.

Love this face wash. I tend to have sensitive skin and have to be very careful with which products I use. This is very gentle on my skin and does not cause me to break out. Leaves my skin feeling, clean and soft.

I've been using this gentle exfoliating face wash for 3 months and I can say so far that it has worked good for me, at least for keeping my face (normal to oily skin) hydrated and clean. It has not irritated my face once. Good size and definitely worth the money. Even though I use it twice a day, the bottle still looks full. It's going to last the entire year.

I’ve been enjoying this Cetaphil exfoliant! It feels gentle enough to work into my skincare routine while still leaving my skin feeling refreshed and smoother. The texture is easy to apply and it doesn’t feel overly harsh. A nice product for regular skincare! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

So good

Perfect for mix and oily skin
