CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser — HerStore.lk
CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser 236ml is a refreshing gel-to-foam facial cleanser formulated with 2% salicylic acid to help remove excess oil, unclog pores, and reduce the appearance of blemishes and blackheads. It combines blemish-focused ingredients with three essential ceramides and niacinamide to cleanse the skin without leaving it feeling excessively stripped.
What Is CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser?
CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser is designed for blemish-prone, oily and combination skin that is prone to clogged pores, blackheads, excess shine and occasional breakouts. Its 2% salicylic acid helps exfoliate the skin and remove excess oil and dead skin cells from pores, while hectorite helps absorb surface oil and reduce the appearance of shine.
The gel-to-foam texture provides a refreshing cleansing experience, making it particularly suitable for routines where the skin can feel oily or congested throughout the day.
For a more complete cleansing routine, you can also use CeraVe Hydrating Micellar Water 296ml as a first cleansing step when you need to remove makeup, sunscreen or surface impurities before your facial cleanser.
Who Is It For?
CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser is particularly suited to:
- Oily skin
- Combination skin
- Blemish-prone skin
- Skin with visible blackheads
- Skin prone to clogged pores
- Skin affected by excess shine
It can also be a practical option for Sri Lankan skincare routines, where warm and humid conditions may leave oily or combination skin feeling sweaty, shiny or congested during the day.
If you regularly experience an oily appearance a few hours after cleansing, a salicylic-acid cleanser such as CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser may be worth considering as part of a balanced skincare routine.

CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser is also available in a 473ml size.
Benefits of CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser
Helps Unclog Pores
With 2% salicylic acid, the cleanser helps exfoliate the skin and remove excess oil and dead skin cells that can contribute to clogged pores.
Helps Reduce the Appearance of Blemishes and Blackheads
Regular cleansing helps remove excess sebum, dirt and impurities from the skin, supporting a cleaner-looking complexion for blemish-prone skin.
For targeted blemish care beyond cleansing, you can also explore CeraVe Imperfection Control Patches as another option within a blemish-focused skincare routine.
Helps Control Excess Oil
Hectorite is an oil-absorbing ingredient that helps reduce excess surface oil and the appearance of unwanted shine.
Supports the Skin Barrier
The formula contains three essential ceramides that help support the skin’s natural protective barrier while cleansing.
Contains Niacinamide
Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, helps support the skin barrier and contributes to a more balanced and comfortable-looking complexion.
Refreshing Gel-to-Foam Texture
The cleanser transforms into a light foam when mixed with water, helping wash away dirt, oil and impurities without the heavy feel of a rich cream cleanser.
How to Use CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser
- Wet your face and hands with lukewarm water.
- Apply a small amount of CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser to your hands.
- Gently massage the cleanser over your face, avoiding the eye area.
- Rinse thoroughly with water.
- Pat your skin dry instead of rubbing.
- Follow with a suitable moisturiser.
If your skin is new to salicylic acid, begin gradually and adjust how often you use the cleanser according to how your skin responds.
During the daytime, sunscreen should be part of your routine, particularly when using exfoliating skincare products.
How to Build a Simple Skincare Routine
A cleanser works best as part of a complete skincare routine rather than as a standalone product. After cleansing, you can follow with a hydrating serum such as CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum 30ml and then apply a suitable moisturiser.
For a moisturising step, CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for Normal Dry Skin 539g can be considered depending on your skin type and the level of hydration your routine requires.
