Product details

Paula's Choice CLEAR Pore Normalizing Facial Cleanser is a gentle yet highly effective acne-fighting gel face wash designed to target breakouts, blackheads, and enlarged pores. Formulated specifically for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin types, this soothing gel texture dissolves pore-clogging impurities, makeup, and excess sebum without stripping the skin of its essential moisture or causing dehydration.

Infused with a targeted concentration of salicylic acid (BHA), it works deeply within the pore lining to eliminate the root causes of blemishes while visibly reducing skin redness. The inclusion of skin-replenishing glycerin ensures the skin barrier remains balanced, calm, and refreshed after every wash.

This completely fragrance-free and alcohol-free formulation is ideal for Indian consumers dealing with stubborn congestion aggravated by humidity and environmental pollution, providing a clean, non-irritating base for the rest of your skincare routine.

    Finally a Cleanser That Works Without Stripping My Skin

    Stated using it the minute I got it, pimple was delivered out on my cheek and chin, I don't know why. Stress. Using miracle pimple patches though for the more aggressive pimples with puss? Those worked as well but this I was told would work on eliminating future pimples if used every day and it would get lower quality before it got finer. I have blemishes now that I don't know how to get to go away with minimal redness behind Sort of seeing it. Adding a toner of the same brand and anything else enjoy Target treatments if need be. Ew.

    Only face wash for me

    I have used so a lot of cleaner for my acne and none of them worked . One day I showed up across this face wash and let me tell you it's the greatest within a week my acne started to sharp up and I'm so delighted I finally noticed a item that helps me. The amount isn't bad as adequately so I would definitely suggest you trying this item.

    Am fond of these products! Will be buying again and again!

    Good for oily skin, redness, and hyper-pigmentation as nicely as bacterial and fungal acne. I do a dry oil cleanse before my shower with MCT oil and then wash my face off with this after i get out of the shower.About a day ago I did notice some white heads on my chin, i was able to pop them smoothly. Definitely advocate wetting face and hands before applying to help with the lather.I tested Vanicream previously and it gave me closed comedones after a week and has am pleased with no actives so it doesn't do anything for skin. I did miss my skincare process for a night and have been wearing sunscreen and masks during the day so I don't know that it had anything to do with the product itself per se but definitely don't skip the moisturizing or your skin might produce more oil to compensate for the cleansing. Not unsatisfactory price-wise either. A single dot, smaller than a dime, lathers agreeable and is the ideal amount so it'll last a bit. Does not have a noticeable scent. Stumbled cross this Basic Face Gel and I've been using it for about 10 days and haven't truly had an concern. CeraVe products are typically not fungal acne safe and I did get some cystic acne (a common complaint) while using their SA cleanser so I'm avoiding that brand. Performs well with my other skincare products. I was using this morning and night for a bit but noticed my skin getting a little greasy looking by day's end so limiting to night time employ and just cleansing with toner in the AM.I'm surely going to keep using this. No new spots really and the spots on my chin that had been there prior to utilize seem to be healing nicely.I truly like the feel of it and my face totally appears pristine after using it.
