Product details

Description

Cetaphil Gentle Clear Pore Clearing Acne Cleanser β€” Acne Face Wash with 2% Salicylic Acid (237ml)

A dermatologist-recommended foaming gel acne face wash for sensitive, acne-prone skin. The 2% salicylic acid formula β€” maximum OTC strength β€” clears breakouts and blackheads while an Advanced Moisture Blend keeps skin comfortable, never stripped.

Why It Works

  • 2% salicylic acid (max OTC strength) β€” exfoliates inside the pore lining to clear breakouts and blackheads, and prevent new ones
  • Advanced Moisture Blend β€” 24-hour dryness relief; cleans without the tight, squeaky feel
  • Defends 5 signs of sensitivity β€” dryness, irritation, roughness, tightness, weakened barrier
  • Face + body tested β€” covers chest, back and shoulder breakouts too
  • Hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, paraben-free, non-comedogenic

Built for the Regimen

    Amazing Cleanser - Gentle Yet Effective!

    I've been using the Cetaphil Pore Clearing Acne Cleanser, and I absolutely love it. It makes my face feel smooth, clean, and refreshed without drying it out like other cleansers I've tried. My skin looks noticeably clearer, and I love how gentle it is-perfect for daily use. It removes excess oil and helps keep breakouts under control without leaving my skin tight or irritated. Definitely a keeper in my skincare routine. Completely effective for me.

    Great face wash

    This Cetaphil gentle clear pore acne cleanser is great. It has a thick cream style consistency and a light gentle lather. The cleaner is unscented but it has a slight sour scent to it. It isn't drying on my skin and my skin feels really clean and hydrated after using it.

FAQs

Is Cetaphil available in India? Where can I buy authentic Cetaphil acne cleanser online?

Yes β€” authentic Cetaphil is available in India at dropy.in, directly sourced and imported from the USA. You can buy the genuine Cetaphil Gentle Clear Pore Clearing Acne Cleanser (2% Salicylic Acid) online with cash on delivery (COD) across India, with every order shipped from our Navi Mumbai warehouse.

Cetaphil Gentle Clear (salicylic) vs Gentle Clear BPO β€” which to pick?

The pore-clearing version uses 2% salicylic acid for blackheads and clogged pores; the BPO version uses benzoyl peroxide for inflamed pimples. Choose salicylic for oily, congested skin and BPO for red, painful breakouts. Both are formulated for sensitive skin common in Indian buyers.

What is the Cetaphil acne cleanser price in India in 2026?

The Cetaphil Gentle Clear Pore Clearing Acne Cleanser (2% Salicylic Acid) is priced in INR on dropy.in with regular offers on authentic USA-imported stock. New customers can use code FIRST200 for β‚Ή200 off on orders above β‚Ή1,999. Prices reflect genuine imported product, not grey-market or counterfeit stock.

How do I check if Cetaphil is original or fake when buying in India?

Every Cetaphil order from dropy.in is genuine USA-imported stock, and we record a packing-proof video of your exact parcel before dispatch so you can verify the sealed, authentic product. Check for the original batch code and sealed packaging β€” counterfeit beauty products are common on unverified Indian marketplaces, so buy from trusted importers.

Is Cetaphil good for acne-prone skin in India's humid climate?

Yes β€” Cetaphil Gentle Clear Pore Clearing Acne Cleanser (2% Salicylic Acid) targets acne-causing factors and helps control oil and breakouts common in humid Indian weather. Start a few times a week to let skin adjust, as active ingredients like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid can be drying initially.

How long will delivery take?

Most orders arrive in 15–20 days: we source each product directly from the USA, check it at our Navi Mumbai warehouse and pack it on video. Items marked Dropy Express ship from our India warehouse and arrive in 3–5 days.
