5 Cleansers You Should Use If You’re Prone To Breakouts, According To Dermatologists

Avène Cleanance Cleansing Gel ($20)

This gel removes dirt, oil, and other impurities without disturbing your skin's delicate pH levels. It's formulated with glyceryl laurate, which dissolves oil and refines pore size to help reduce excess sebum production. And, if you already have acne, it contains Avène's Thermal Spring Water and zinc, which calm the skin and help soothe inflammation. 

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel ($14.99)

This cleanser is great for those with acne-prone skin because of its gentle, soothing formula that purifies the skin while promoting the elimination of excess sebum using zinc and glycacil.

Eminence Organic Skincare Clear Skin Probiotic Cleanser ($38)

This purifying cleanser without stripping your skin of the moisture it needs to repair and stay healthy. It's formulated with tea tree oil, willow bark, lactic acid, and cucumber juice tones work together to neutralize bacteria to prevent breakouts, control oil production, exfoliate and shrink pores. And to make it even better, the cleanser also contains a powerful blend of vitamins A, C, E, Coenzyme Q10 and antioxidants that help reduce any signs of aging! 

SkinCeuticals Micro-Exfoliating Scrub ($30)

Exfoliating is just as important as cleansing when it comes to clearing acne as it helps remove dead skin cells and other pore-clogging agents from the skin. This micro-exfoliating scrub uses diatomaceous earth microbeads to get the job done without harming the skin. It also features aloe vera and citrus oils to soothe the skin, purify pores, and brighten the complexion. 

Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel ($38)

This foaming gel is designed to thoroughly remove impurities without disturbing the skin's natural moisture balance. It features anti-inflammatory balm mint extract that reduces redness while natural Quillaja Saponaria cleans away toxins to deeply cleanse the skin.
