I am hooked on this cleansing foam. The light fragrance is fresh and refreshing and it rinses off easily leaving my skin looking and feeling so much better!

Has a light and refreshing fragrance and really makes your
Has a light and refreshing fragrance and really makes your face feel clean. It also has salicylic acid in it as opposed to benzoyl peroxide which is a lot more harsh on the skin in my opinion and also increases your skin's sensitivity to sunlight.

Works well for acne prone teen

Purchased this for my teen dealing with acne. It's pretty pricey so I thought I could replace it with a drugstore brand with the same active ingredient and I was very wrong. This worked well; the other caused a massive breakout and terrible dryness. Cliniques on the other hand works well and does not seem to be drying. I would recommend lotion to go along with this as well though.

My face has been breaking out more than usual Can I use this with the Clarifying Lotion 1.0 Twice A Day Exfoliator And the All About Clean Liquid Facial Soap Extra Mild? Those are are my current cleansers.
- Asked by Jaci
- Official Answer By Clinique USYes! We recommend slowly integrating Clinique Acne Solutions Cleansing Foam into your current routine during the AM to help remove excess surface oils and to unclog pores that cause acne. If you are experiencing an increase in breakouts we do also recommend incorporating Clinique Acne Solutions Clinical Clearing Gel into your routine to spot-treat stubborn blemishes and apply in the areas that are prone to acne, preventing future breakouts. Follow up with Clinique Dramatically Different Oil-Free Gel to help control surface oils throughout the day while gently hydrating and strengthening skin. For a more personalized recommendation based on your concerns get connected with a local Ulta Clinique Associate for more details.Was this answer helpful to you
