CeraVe SA Smoothing Face and Body Cleanser for Dry, Rough and Bumpy Skin 236ml with Salicylic Acid

Pros and cons

Pros

One cleanser is presented for both face and body, with a focus on dry, rough and bumpy skin.
Combines chemical exfoliation with ceramides and hyaluronic acid rather than physical exfoliant particles.
Fragrance-free and non-comedogenic claims may suit buyers seeking those formula characteristics.

Cons

The product is a rinse-off cleanser, so its contact with skin is limited compared with a leave-on treatment.
