For many years I have struggled with acne. It's always a battle trying to find skincare products that actually work. I haven't found anything that completely demolishes my acne but I have found products that help a lot. Today I am posting about a great moisturizer for acne-prone skin.
Clean & Clear has a moisturizer that's specifically for acne-prone skin. It has salicylic acid medication to unclog pores and treat current breakouts. It's a lightweight formula and it's very comfortable to wear. Of course it's oil-free! You can find it at the drugstore for $6-$7.
What Clean & Clear has to say...Say goodbye to acne with the Clean & Clear Advantage oil-free acne moisturizer. This non-greasy lotion effectively moisturizes acne-prone skin, leaving it soft and supple. The oil-free, 4-oz Clean and Clear acne moisturizer contains salicylic acid, an active ingredient that can help to clear- up skin blemishes and acne with regular use. Make this moisturizer part of your daily routine. Powerful and soothing, this moisturizer is a one-stop solution that's easy to use and doesn't leave any residue.

- Rinse right away with water if it gets in eyes.
Directions
Because this is a medicine, it’s super important to start with clean skin.
So wash your face then apply a thin layer (think pea-size amount) over your face. You can do this up to 3 times a day.
If your skin starts to dry out or peel, reduce your use to once a day.
If you’re heading outside, for goodness sake wear sunscreen.

For easy use, this moisturizer features a pump. It works efficiently and locks in place for child protection. The moisturizer also dispenses evenly and never awkwardly squirts out. I like the fact I can keep my hands clean before applying moisturizer to my face. It keeps me from having to wash my hands multiple times.
How well does it moisturize?
This non-greasy formula leaves skin replenished and feeling fresh. It's not too heavy or light. It's perfect for most skin types. If you have excessive dryness, this moisturizer might not be enough. I would recommend using it only during the day and a heavier cream at night.
I do think this moisturizer is better for warmer months than colder. Unless, you have very oily skin.
Does it help acne?
When I first started using this I couldn't tell if it was making a difference. After I ran out of the moisturizer I started to breakout(more), so I really do think it makes a difference. .05% salicylic acid isn't much but it's great for a moisturizer. I like having that extra boost of treatment.
Final thoughts
This is a great moisturizer for people who need extra treatment for troubled skin. It's really does help acne and I think it even helps minor scars. I think anyone with troubled skin should try Clean & Clear's acne control moisturizer. It's cheap, effective, oil-free and leaves your skin looking great.
If you're looking for extra moisture, I recommend buying a different moisturizer. It does moisturize but there are better options on the market for that specific problem. If you have flaky acne check out
